It's pretty fucked up that wasting our tax money on incompetence and corruption is now objectively preferable to using it to effectively pursue their agenda.
On the other hand, Corey and Kristi doing a lot of personal travel in 737MAXes might not be so bad...
Our government has been like THAT for a looooong time:
It's a good thing we don't get all the government we pay for.
Will Rogers (1879–1935) He said a bunch of other things about politicians too.
If I made a list of the members in this administration that I'd like to watch defend themselves in a trial, obviously Trump would be at the top of the list but Kristi is a solid, though somewhat distant, second. I just want to see those vapid tapped out bimbo lips flapping around "but I was just doing my job flappity flap flap".
No, Bondi next. Then her.
Can Miller go before Bondi? That little dickwad needs to spend a lifetime in prison.
Guys, I dunno if you know this, but we could probably have multiple trials simultaneously and speed this all along.
I'm imagining an NFL Redzone-like stream on PBS.
Can it be a Beria style trial? I want to see them cry.
Didn't y'all invent that thing called RICO, where you can try many people all at once if they're working under the same banner? MAGA is a criminal organisation, they're all under the same banner.
It sounds illiberal as fuck, but do the fascists deserve liberty when their whole shtick is the denial of liberty?
As long as all of them get recorded so we get to play back the highlights. :)
It overlaps heavily with my list of members in this administration I’d like to watch defend themselves in Colosseum-style mortal combat.
Krusty Gnome versus hungry lions. Steven Miller trying to escape a maze filled with alligators. Donald Trump versus lifting a glass of water without stroking out
It's too bad that we don't have real displacer beasts.
I feel you but... it's too quick. Maybe we could do a trial where they just get drilled by smart people for several weeks about every single shitty thing they did, then the sentence could be death by mortal combat.
I was just writing about Billionaire Brawl elsewhere. Glad to see more people thinking about this sort of concept.
Good! I'm MUCH Happier with my Tax Dollars going to ~~Feed Starving American Children~~ Sending Random Kids to War Torn Countries!
It's cool. We'll just use those gifted engines from the UAE.
Why does this sound more like someone got caught trying to launder tax dollars? How does one source planes no one owns that are also mostly useless?
Absolute withing the range of a government where "competence" in any way is considered an absolute downside.
So that's where the snap emergency funds went.
