Trump’s Pick For Solicitor General Argues Presidential Immunity Covers Assassinating Rivals






Trump’s Pick For Solicitor General Argues Presidential Immunity Covers Assassinating Rivals
President-elect Donald Trump nominated Dean John Sauer to be solicitor general on Thursday. Sauer made headlines earlier in the year as he was the attorney who argued that a president could not be criminally prosecuted for ordering SEAL Team Six to kill a political opponent – at least not until he was impeached and convicted in the U.S. Senate.



After watching his picks, I clearly understand how he bankrupted those casinos.

Trump Source Tells CNN Gaetz Picked Because He Will 'Burn Justice Department Down From The Inside'




A Trump source told CNN’s Mark Preston that President-elect Donald Trump picked former Congressman Matt Gaetz (R-FL) to be attorney general because he will “burn the DOJ (Department of Justice) down from the inside.”
The selection of Matt Gaetz to be Trump’s attorney general was met with near-universal shock Wednesday for many reasons, not the least of which is the cloud of scandal that saw Gaetz resign just in time to head off the publication of a House Ethics Committee report.



Trump’s cabinet picks feel like the casting list for the final season of America.


Matt Gaetz practiced law for two years at a private law firm. That is the extent of his legal career. He has been under legal investigation almost 10xs longer than he’s practiced law. This is not only a disgrace to all Americans, but the legal profession. - Julius Kim

Gaetz is a literal pedophile and the GOP loves it.

CNN Ratings Keep Dropping The Farther Right They Turn. You'd Think They'd Learn.
CNN analyst and potential Trump spox Scott Jennings drew protests from colleagues when he held up a newspaper photo of President-elect Donald Trump and President Joe Biden at the White House and sarcastically gloated, “Did you ever think you’d see literal Hitler in the Oval Office!”

The Onion, a media outlet that publishes intentionally false stories labeled as satirical, has acquired Infowars, a media outlet that published intentionally false stories labeled as true, in a court-ordered auction as part of the massive defamation judgment against Infowars founder Alex Jones.








CNN reports that Elon Musk will head a new department that will "gut government agencies and budgets."

Then, CNN refers to Musk as "an authentic genius and visionary."

Trump's Pick For Pentagon Chief Claimed He Left The Military After Being 'Deemed' An 'Extremist' By Members of His Unit




Trump's Pick For Pentagon Chief Claimed He Left The Military After Being 'Deemed' An 'Extremist' By Members of His Unit
...In the June 2024 book, Hegseth explains how he and the military finally parted ways in 2021. “And, in 2021, I was deemed an “extremist” by that very same Army. Yes, you read that right. Twenty years . . . and the military I loved, I fought for, I revered…spit me out,” Hegseth wrote.



Pete Hegseth 5 days ago: "I'm straight up just saying we should not have women in combat roles."

Okay yes a second Trump presidency is terrifying but based on these Trump picks, I think there's a decent chance that stupidity gets in the way of the fascism. I think that's our hope: crippling idiocy. - April Ajoy








Republican Shenanigans



When I was growing up during the Cold War, Republicans used to scare us with stories about communist Russia and how people would be forcibly ripped from their homes and taken away. Years later, Republicans are celebrating that they can now do the same thing with immigrants. - Dave Matt









Well, Better Than Rick Scott, I Guess









Dear mainstream media: Stop acting like Trump won in a landslide. As late ballots are counted, two facts have emerged: Trump won by only about 1 percent, and he failed to get over 50 percent of the popular vote. It’s shaping up to be the closest election since Bush v Gore in 2000, and when you report otherwise, it just makes more of us cancel our subscriptions or change the channel. - Andy Borowitz
