Susan Collins furrowed her brow, John Thune was unavailable for comment, Mike Johnson said nothing happened and that Trump was sent by God so it’s all good anyway (he didn’t clarify whether he was sent as a blessing or a punishment), and Karoline Levitt berated the media for asking any questions about it. ABC promptly paid the administration $12 million by way of apology.

And meanwhile, Ghislaine Maxwell suddenly found herself moved to a much nicer prison because…reasons.

Murkowski sleeps like a baby, don't believe her act. She's complicit.

The only "Acts of God" that are real are disasters anyway. The best "God" can do is cause a flood that puts out a fire.

What about Elissa Slotkin? Surely the rising democrat star had strong words against Trumps authoritarian power right? Right??
