My favourite Senator 😂
JD Vance thinks you should have to speak English to receive care at a hospital. Wait until he hears about neonatal intensive care units. The audacity of those babies expecting care when they don’t even speak the language.

Watch this extraordinary video and you will understand why corruption, insider trading and conflicts of commercial interests are endemic in US politics, not aberrations
Calley Means just went on Joe Rogan and blew up at Susie Wiles for destroying MAHA. “She spent her career taking money from Benjamin Netanyahu.” “The pharmaceutical industry.” “The pesticide industry.” “Trump’s administration has been infiltrated by the very people that he energized voters to say he would get out of DC.” “Susie Wiles is the most powerful chief of staff in modern American history.” “She has a couple of deputies.” “James Blair … long-term political consultant.” “He’s taken a lot of money from … special interests.” “The sugar industry.” “Walker Barrett.” “Susie’s neighbor in Florida.” “Junior guy, but extremely powerful.” “Richard Walters.” “A kind of mid-level fundraiser.” “He came from a lobbying firm … that lobbied for pesticides.” “Lobbied for pharma.” “These are the most powerful people in the country.” “Tony Fabrizio.” “He takes money from Pepsi.” “He takes money from pharmaceutical companies.” “He takes money from almost every single industry we’re fighting against right now to this day.” “Susie’s daughter became a lobbyist.” “The group Susie’s daughter worked for had almost zero in revenue before the Trump administration.” “Shot up to $30-ish million a year in revenue.” “If you’re a special interest and you want to get something done, the secret’s out.” “You pay Susie’s daughter.” “And then Susie worked at a firm called Ballard Partners.” “Ballard Partners has become the highest revenue-generation lobbying firm in history.” “If you hire Ballard, you get a meeting with Susie.” “And you can get things done.” Joe Rogan: “Is this normal?” Means: “This is how it works for 30 years.” @calleymeans @joerogan

Dodgy as ... "Colecchia is not the only One Nation figure with links that might sit uncomfortably with the party’s tough-on-crime stance, which has helped drive its polling surge ahead of Victoria’s election later this month. Sahil Singh, a senior One Nation member who Colecchia described in an online post as part of her “inner circle” and who assisted the party campaigns for the federal seat of Farrer in NSW and the Nepean byelection in Victoria, has a detailed criminal rap sheet. Court records show Singh is facing three drug possession charges before the Melbourne Magistrates’ Court after he was arrested allegedly acting erratically by police at 2am in Brunswick in early July, having earlier been aggressive towards ambulance officers who discovered him slumped in his car." smh.com.au/politics/federal/…

Not one word from Jake Tapper and Alex Thompson, who were so deeply concerned about aging politicians in 2024? Trump has visible dementia symptoms; Mitch McConnell appears unable to speak - where are Tapper and Thompson?
The lights are on, but nobody's home...
