Bernanke Defends Increase But Warns Of Deficit

In this year’s Senate elections, Democrats won over 2 million more votes than Republicans but still lost their majority. So much for democracy. The Senate is famously biased toward the GOP, and with less ticket-splitting these days, that leaves Democrats with quite the hole to climb out of. But there is a ladder back to the majority, even if it’s a tall one. Democrats have performed well in the past two midterm elections, riding a blue wave to a net gain of 40 House seats in 2018 and flipping one Senate seat in 2022, a midterm they were expected to lose decisively.

Joel Webbon, a raging Trump-supporting Christian Nationalist held court, proclaiming Jews are not allowed to serve in public office unless they convert to his type of Christianity. MAGAts are flying their anti-Semitic freak flag high and far. The MAGA evangelical movement is running on all cylinders as now they denounce Judaism as a parasitic religion and claim only Christians of a Protestant theology are allowed to serve in public office. These guys don't even like practicing Catholics. WEBBON: And there would be no law that says Jews can't live here, but what there would be is anybody to hold public office would have to make a Christian profession of faith

Fox News Dr. Mark Siegel has been one the most despicable medical professionals for years on the airwaves. He's also a rabid Trump supporter claimed Kash Patel got the FBI nomination because he's a loyalist and wrote a children's book supporting Trump. Siegel is so reprehensible. Before the 2022 midterms, he hypothesized on air that John Fetterman may not survive his term if elected. Patel's stellar qualifications include posting on Truth Social. SIEGEL: And the other thing about Kash Patel is he's a writer, and he messages, and he helped Trump run Truth Social, and that children's book he wrote, The Plot Against the King, which made fun of the whole idea that Trump was targeted in the 2016 election, took his side with a children's book. He does it all across the way, and I think that Trump is picking him, A, because of his talent, and B, because of his loyalty. What talent? Patel is a BIG LIE traitor.

Trump pardoned felon Dinesh D'Souza put out a statement apologizing to Mark Andrews, who sued him for using his blurred image and identified him as a supposed mule dropping off illegal ballots. Much of the D'Souza's faux documentary has been debunked and pillared by any incredible person and fact-checker, but this appears be the first time MAGAt scumbag actually apologized. Dinesh D’Souza issues an apology for ‘2000 Mules’ — his misleading *documentary* that convinced many Republicans the 2020 election was stolen (TN State Senator Mark Pody in particular was a big fan) Full: dineshdsouza.com/statement-onread more

Fox and Friends Sunday co-hosts were exuberant at the notion of Kash Patel dismantling the FBI. Will Cain gushed over Patel's claims that he'd turn the Hoover Building into a museum and decimate thousands of FBI employees. They played a clip of Patel ruminating on his desires, including smearing every FBI agent and staffer before firing them all.

It’s unlikely there would have been a war or an upsurge in worldwide antisemitism if Trump had been in charge.
