Jared Kushner and Ivanka Trump made $640 million while “working” in daddy Trump’s administration, and six months after leaving the White House, Kushner secured a $2 billion investment from a fund led by the Saudi crown prince. That is what corruption looks like. Not some laptop.

Seriously, do right-wingers who were obsessed with Hunter Biden’s corruption not care about the Saudis giving Jared Kushner $2 billion? Their own experts say he didn’t deserve it at all. It’s the most obvious case of corruption. Do conservatives have any principles left at all?

My cousin had to return to in-person work, got COVID from her boss, and passed away today. She leaves behind 13-year old twin girls, a husband, a mother who will now have to bury her last surviving child, and family who will forever miss her smile. The pandemic is not over.

Imagine saying that we must take scripture literally, then grumbling when people’s debts are literally being forgiven.

This story isn’t just a polarized country made more divided by a hate clicks for profit ecosystem. This is one party openly embracing a violent, paranoid political theology in which people truly believe their opponents drink blood and kidnap children. This isn’t about tax rates.

The thing I can’t stop thinking about is how different it would be if some far-left radical had tried to assassinate McConnell. It would be covered as devastating for Dems. They’d spend a week denouncing themselves. The midterms would be understood to be lost.

An idea: President Donald J. Trump today delivers a speech denouncing the GOP and Fox for demonizing Pelosi, embracing & promoting conspiracy theories, and indirectly or directly encouraging political violence. Enough is enough. How dare they. Etc. The party of lawlessness & violence. Thoughts?
