It turns out that making your most incompetent lawyer a US attorney so that she can go after your political enemies wasn't the smartest move. Alina Habba announced criminal charges against Democratic Congresswoman LaMonica McIver this week, but it was revealed at the time of the announcement that the charges hadn't actually been filed yet. It turns out that announcing charges before filing them is a big no-no in the legal world, and her premature move could make the entire prosecution null and void.
Matt Gaetz probably did not expect his career to end up the way that it has. The man who was on the verge of becoming the Attorney General of the United States is now hosting a show that nearly everyone forgot about while also doing paid online ads for an online pharmacy that specializes in prescribing Ivermectin. The ad is about as pathetic as it gets, and so is what's left of Gaetz's career.
The White House formally accepted the $400 million "flying palace" junk airplane from Qatar this week, but not before the truth about the situation finally came out. It turns out that Qatar didn't actually offer him the plane as we were all led to believe - Trump and his associates begged the country to give it to us. The plane had been sitting in storage for more than 5 years as Qatar tried, and failed, to find a buyer for it, but sucker Trump fell in love and begged the country to give it to him.
The Washington Post decided to go out into rural America to talk with farmers who, as a whole, overwhelmingly supported Donald Trump in last year's election. These Trump-voting farmers now fully understand how bad they screwed up, and they say that their hope for Trump has been replaced with despair, frustration, and anger over his policies that are crippling their businesses. They realize they made a mistake, which is a great step forward.
