When I read the first several line of your letter, I thought it was from the Borowitz Report.

exactly... it must be hard for Borowitz to come up with stuff that is comically untrue... the true stuff is so unbelievable and bizarre. the late night talk show folks have it easy... they just need repeat what trmp says and give the audience a raised eyebrow... were it not happening to us, to our country, it would truly be laughable. its like a real life political version of the old sitcom F-Troop (folks may be too young to remember that series..)

Will the Coast Guard Commander be able to reclaim his house and helicopter now? Will Kristy get to keep the plane? What happens to Corey Lewandowski now? Does a senator from Oklahoma know how to work with a budget larger than that of the Marines?

I am once again aghast at the idiocy that abounds in this administration hand in hand with the lack of scruples, ethics and morals.

And, in the case of Senator Mullin, no management experience for this job! Is Corey leaving too?

It's a scary position to have a neophyte in.

Ain’t that the truth and a perfectly worded headline. I keep reminding friends of how Mullin tried to pick a fight during a hearing in Senate chambers with a union worker or some lay witness. Mullin will probably be out in the streets fighting immigrants himself.

Maybe Mullin can show off his MMA chops on June 14 when the Whitehouse hosts a UFC cage fight on the South Lawn.

BTW, doesn't this leave a senate seat open?

That is apparently to celebrate the nation's 250th anniversary. Out with the rose garden, out with the East Wing, in with the new Temple of Insecure Masculinity.

At least Merkin Muffley hasn’t shot any dogs or goats … that we know of.

"Shield Of America". Everything they grandly attach a name to sounds like a rejected Marvel comic.

Are they intentionally following the plot of Idiocracy?

It’s hard to decide where the nouns and adjectives are best placed to describe Trump and his handpicked inner circle: narcissistic, sociopathic incompetents - or incompetent, narcissistic sociopaths - or how about incompetent, sociopathic narcissists?

Whatever the words, they are dangerous to us and the world.

Mullin will have to be confirmed by the Senate, won’t he? Is he smart enough to recuse himself from the vote?

I wouldn't want her next life!

This is all good.

ironically one of the few things that Noem said that was true was that trmp approved the budget... no one does anything in that world without his approval, and she has been talking about it quite a while... also tough to imagine a worse choice than her? he is the political equivalent of Hegseth.... no experience necessary! his greatest qualification an MMA fighter???? incredible.. you just cannot make this stuff up. the policy will not change, maybe the sex on the airplanes will, but the policies come from Miller...
