MyPillow guy says he’s hired investigators to find out why he can’t get on Fox News anymore.
BANNON: “Why is Mike Lindell not on Fox, and why do they seem to say, ‘Hey, when Dominion says something we’re just going to shut up about it and talk about Biden’s tax bill’?”
LINDELL: “Well, you know, I’m going to have those answers, too, ‘cause I’ve hired private investigators, and I’ve spent a lot of money on them, to investigate everything. Why are … the bots and trolls, who’s behind them? Why is Facebook involved, Wikipedia involved? And then the big question, why isn’t Fox having people on? Why isn’t Fox on there talking about, you know, Dominion and Smartmatic and the election fraud?”
Rep. Veronica Escobar says Stephen Miller should be locked up for ‘heinous human rights violations’
In just one example of Miller’s cruelty, NBC News reported last year that while the previous administration had already been “piloting” family separation in the region well before former Attorney General Jefferson Beauregard Sessions III formally announced the policy in May 2018, it was all going far too slow for Miller. He apparently desired that as many as 25,000 children be stolen from their parents, and during a White House meeting reportedly forced a vote through a show of hands on proceeding. Attorneys representing separated families have been seeking documents regarding this meeting.
Miller deserves to be held to account—along with officials like former Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen—but Escobar admits the reality of a system that shields powerful people like them. “That is going to be very difficult, but it kills me that these people could potentially walk away—and even potentially rebuild their reputations,” she continued in the report. “I mean, I find them to be just among the most reprehensible, abhorrent people that our generation could have ever produced.”
John Boehner, unsparing about today’s GOP, advises voters against electing ‘legislative terrorists’
Based on the Post’s book review, Boehner doesn’t appear to take any responsibility for helping to create the current sorry state of affairs for the GOP, but he doesn’t mince words about just how off the rails the party had already gone by the time he became speaker of the House in Barack Obama’s first term.
It was “Crazytown,” Boehner writes, and “when I took the Speaker’s gavel in 2011, two years into the Obama presidency, I became its mayor. Crazytown was populated by jackasses, and media hounds, and some normal citizens as baffled as I was about how we got trapped inside the city walls. Every second of every day since Barack Obama became president I was fighting one batty idea after another.”
Sounds lovely.
Finally, Boehner had some advice for voters who actually want Washington to work: “Send people there to represent you who actually want to get things done instead of hucksters making pie-in-the-sky promises or legislative terrorists just looking to go to Washington and blow everything up.”
Boehner doesn’t seem to have directed that advice at Republicans specifically, but since the GOP is the only party electing hucksters like Trump and trying to “blow everything up” just for kicks, it seems fair to assume it’s mainly directed at GOP voters. Of course, any advice as reasonable as that is obviously DOA with Republicans voters in, for instance, the rural Georgia district of Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene.
So we can only conclude that Boehner’s advice has one potential audience: the very suburban GOP voters who have proven to be slightly more suspicious about the direction of the Republican Party under Trump.
And where those voters are concerned, the more erstwhile establishment Republicans who decry the current nature of the GOP, the better for Democrats.

1: He is a politician, so of course his primary interest is to be re-elected.
2: He is a politician, so of course his secondary interest (probably not entirely in the service of #1) is to keep that donation river flowing his direction.
3: He is a Gross Old Pervert politician, so he has long ago abandoned any shred of honesty, truth, upholding his oath of office or anything else resembling humanity as we wish it were.
4: He is a RepubliKKKan so he is going to be pushing to disenfranchise everyone — except well to do white (male) people who will vote for GQP candidates at all levels.

I do not use Dailykos as a reference but go to primary sources to get past biases that might otherwise color an issue.
