Matt Gaetz picked by Trump as Attorney General designate. 

Sometimes no comment is needed.
Especially when you look at the performance of Merrick Garland

Are they painful, the contortions your party now requires of you to somehow defend these grossly unqualified cabinet designates?

I am not defending any one.
It is rare that a President gets everything he wants in a divided Congress.
Why would this one be any different?

Yes I did.
A GOP Congress
The democrats made it happier by denying their own leadership.
Now we will see if the GOP will on its good fortune.

Red has his gelatinous jowls jiggling but his meaning gets lost in the voluminous flabby folds of his fat face and globules of greasy goo he sprays like a napalm mist from his screwy maw. This makes him feel he is holding up his end of a conversation. It is also why no one every talks to him in person, at least not for very long and never more than once.

bambuland Prime Minister Albanese has flown to Peru.
Leaders  from across the Asia-Pacific region will gather in Peru from Thursday for an annual economic summit, followed by a G20 summit in Brazil early next week.
While US President Joe Biden will attend both summits, Trump will overshadow the talks as world leaders brace for the impact of his stated trade policies, such as 60 per cent tariffs on Chinese goods.

Lawfare was never anything more than a fantasy MAGA Trump lovers like you concocted to try to come to grip with the fact that your idol got caught criming.

"The Onion Buys Infowars" seems like it should be a headline in The Onion.

Jones is really pissed, so the Sandy Hook families got their moneys worth here.  When I saw that headline in The Guardian there was a split second when I thought it was some sort of gag.

And Gaetz resigns from Congress just two days before a GOP controlled Congressional House Ethics Committee was due to vote on releasing a highly damaging report on its investigation into accusations of sex trafficking and drug abuse against him on Friday.

Hmm.
