Hollywood here’s your problem. Deniro says “Fuck Trump.” Bee says Ivanka is “a cunt.” Maher “hopes for a recession to get rid of Trump.” That’s all you got? Do you have any clue as to how this plays right into Trump’s playbook? Keep it up and you’ll help ensure four more years.

Let me get this straight. Biden is being criticized by the right for using notes. Which I do, and Reagan did, when you want to get it right. Trump didn’t use notes and lied on average 21 x a day. I don’t know, put me down as notes = truth.

Trump calls the indictments a fishing expedition. Well, when you refuse to disclose your taxes when you run for president, and when you are president, and claim they're being audited indefinitely for years, then, yeah, prosecutors are gonna go fishing. Cause something's fishy.

I’ll say it again. The biggest fraud in American politics is the notion that there is voter fraud.
Texas AG Ken Paxton's office spent 22,000 hours looking for voter fraud and uncovered just 16 cases of false addresses on registration forms, according to The Houston Chronicle.
Nearly 17M voters are registered in Texas.

I pitched

for more than a decade. Reaction was "Great concept, but no way you can make a documentary in a week." It takes an extraordinary crew to pull off a 1/2 hour in almost real time. An hour is next to impossible. But we did it this week, and it's a doozy!

Fun fact: someone who worked for me on Bush campaign was the perpetrator, found guilty, and went to federal prison.
Fun fact: when the Gore campaign received a debate briefing book and video tape stolen from the Bush campaign in 2000 they immediately turned it over to the FBI and the person who received it in the mail voluntarily left the Gore campaign.

My company once hosted an event with Kelleher. He came, was very nice to staffer going in. Ten minutes later he left. Staffer: "Was something wrong Mr. Kelleher?" He said, "There are very few absolutes in life. But there is absolutely no Wild Turkey Liquor here. So I gotta go."

The only credible excuse Kristi Noem could have for including in her book a meeting with a foreign dictator that never took place is that she didn’t write it or even read it before it was published. And the fact that that seems plausible says all you need to know about her.

No equivalence to lives lost. But intent of all three attacks was to destabilize our democracy. So the question is which of those attacks was successful?
It is so frustrating that people can't find their footing on this stuff. Yes, Russia meddling was very bad. No it wasn't akin to Pearl Harbor or 9/11. Get a grip.
