Trump Lied 18 Times During ’60 Minutes’ Interview
18
“President Donald Trump littered his new ’60 Minutes’ interview with a wide-ranging assortment of false claims, the vast majority of them previously debunked,” CNN reports. “We counted at least 18 inaccurate assertions.”
Nearly 42 Million Lose Food Stamps
~42 million
“Millions of low-income Americans are losing access to food aid as the nation’s largest anti-hunger program goes dark for the first time,” Politico reports. “Congress failed to reopen the government before funding for the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program ran out Saturday. A federal judge, in an eleventh-hour decision, directed the Trump administration to use emergency funds to pay for food aid in November — but even that wasn’t enough to prevent the immediate lapse of benefits, which officials say could take weeks to resume.”
2024 Was Not a Repudiation of Democratic Party
“Tuesday’s results back up my oft-stated argument that the November 2024 election was a highly focused repudiation of President Biden, the Biden-Harris Administration, and, by extension, Vice President Kamala Harris, not the top-to-bottom repudiation of the Democratic Party that many have made it out to be.”
— Charlie Cook
Boss of the Loss
On Tuesday Republicans saw an undeniable exposure of their party’s flaws,
And it’s clear that inflation, jobs and the shutdown were the cause.
Despite his obvious culpability,
Trump shirked all responsibility,
Asserting with caustic certainty, “I WASN’T ON THE BALLOT!” (Oh, but he was!)
