“How do you resurrect your party, though, by protecting red tape and the bureaucracy? By trying to gin up sympathy for federal workers who need to get real jobs in the real world like most of America. Ever heard of it? “Now, do Democrats really think that Americans will stop liking Trump because he fires these people? Now, making a …

“A bracing slap of reality hit Germany’s political elites yesterday when the Germany First Party, called AfD, Alternative for Germany, came in second, only to the Christian Democrats. And, by the way, it’s AfD’s strongest showing in decades.  “And the new chancellor-elect, a nominal conservative, knows AfD could win it all in the next election. And so, he’s forming a …

“When you have somebody from the outside come in and make some tough cuts, you could say, ‘I don’t have my hands in that.’ The blow back they [GOP reps] are getting in some of these town halls is real. I’m sure there’s some people in there that voted for Trump that said, ‘I walked into work and I lost …

“Things are going so well, he’s thinking about never leaving. Four more years of Trump? Democrats might actually move to Canada, but by that time it’ll be a state. It’s been a whirlwind month, that’s all part of the plan. Unlike Trump 1.0, the chaos is calculated and explicitly designed to institutionalize MAGA, paralyze the president’s enemies, and permanently break …

“Let me tell you a story about Chris. Chris was a guy I met at a shooting event in New Jersey. A 20-year veteran of the US military, one of the guys who has killed a lot of bad guys. Put his life on the line. He punched out after 20 years of working for the Pentagon. “And he’s only …

“I just want to say one thing about this, Congressman Vindman saying, ‘It’s a reign of terror for these federal employees.’ How absurd is it that because you have to go to the office, they’re saying you’re being, you know — they’re watching you and it’s a reign of terror, as if working in the office means you’re subject to …

“We are waging a 21st-century information warfare campaign against the left, and they are using tactics from the 1990s. They are holding tiny presser conferences, tiny little rallies. They are screaming into the ether on MSNBC. This is what you call top-down command and control. “You’ve got the talking points from a newspaper, and you put it on the broadcast …

“Let me try to break this down for you, because I know that some of these concepts are a little complicated. We know that high taxes disincentivizes work — why work more if the government takes more? Whereas a tariff disincentivizes consumption, so — ‘I have to pay for this, maybe I won’t eat as much.’ So, isn’t the international …

“The two-state solution, living side-by-side, it’s an unrealistic expectation. So this Gaza-stan is the only alternative. I’m not saying it’s the answer, but right now it is the only alternative that’s realistic. So, until the Arab powers come with their idea, this is the only idea at play right now.  “This population in Palestine is hostile, it’s uneducated. It’s even …

“People are using Medicaid in the wrong way. They might have a way to make money, but they don’t tie it in with their health insurance so essentially Medicaid is part of a nanny state. “You know, the vast majority of people in this country get their insurance by working for it and they are proud of it and might …

Media Matters has the transcript: JESSICA TARLOV (CO-HOST): Jesse, what do you think? JESSE WATTERS (CO-HOST): How many trans teens killed themselves today, Jessica?

Lawrence Jones: “Agree or disagree with the idea that he presented, he was talking about a new day for the Palestinian people. And that’s one thing. They haven’t had hope.

Laura Ingraham: “I think it’s so foreign to us to hear this, that, wait a second. We actually may solve a problem, we actually may make money on it.

Mediaite reports: Fox & Friends co-host Lawrence Jones took political theater to a remarkable new level when he interviewed newly confirmed DHS Secretary Kristi Noem while riding horseback.
