    Fox News host Jesse Waters stooped to a new low by claiming California is destroying Western civilization and that there should be strings attached to any Palisades wildfire relief efforts. Fox News is furious that California is trying to protect itself from the incoming Traitor Trump administration, and for good reason.

  • Hegseth Will Order Troops To Shoot US Protestors
    The Daily Dot, Wednesday - 01/15/2025 - 11:36 AM

    During Sen. Mazie Hirono's cross-examination of nincompoop SecDef nominee Pete Hegseth, he confirmed that if ordered by Trump to shoot protesters, he would comply. This is the type of subservient sycophantic behavior Trump requires from his cabinet nominees. Anything less, and he'd likely face criminal and impeachment charges. HIRONO: In June of 2020, then President Trump directed former Secretary of Defense Mark Esper to shoot protesters in the legs in downtown D.

  • Pam Bondi Shows Off Her One Qualification At Hearing
    The Daily Dot, Wednesday - 01/15/2025 - 11:23 AM

    Pam Bondi is the runner up to be Trump's Attorney General because Matt Gaetz didn't turn out so well. And Pam has proven her loyalty to Trump and that's the only qualification she needs, either for Mango Mussolini or the Republican Senate. Sad. Ok a #PamBondi #confirmationhearing thread. So to start, she refused to agree that Joe Biden duly won the 2020 election, claiming that she saw "so much" when she went to Pennsylvania (alleging fraud) but did not elaborate.

  • Idiot GOP Senator Rails Against DEI But Can't Spell 'Military'
    The Daily Dot, Wednesday - 01/15/2025 - 10:51 AM

    Missouri Republican Senator Eric Schmitt railed about DEI supposedly destroying the competence in our military in front of a sign with the word military spelled wrong at this Tuesday's hearing for Trump's unqualified nominee for Def Sec, Pete Hegseth. Maybe Schmitt should worry about the competence of his own staff before making a fool of himself like this: One issue front and center at his confirmation hearing has been the aforementioned DEI, which Hegseth has promised to expunge at the Department of Defense.
