In--fing--credible.

Edited to add: well the 'border czar' Kam hasnt made it to the border, but at least her children's book has....

If you’re this pissed about 1,000 copies of Harris’ book being purchased for a single detention facility (https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.foxnews...book.amp), boy do I have some stories of self-enrichment from the previous administration!

Not a good look - should be investigated to see why the decision was made to purchase these and if the VP office had any influence in the purchase for the Long Beach facility. Could easily be that the person running the facility thought having the book from the VP was a good idea - no problemo. Could also be that the VP’s office pushed for it - no bueno.

But getting worked up over this, compared to the mountain of tax payer funds that went directly into the Trump organizations pockets from all of the golf outings, is a bit uneven, no?

You can’t make this **** up (well, I guess you can, actually):

Quote: The reporter who wrote the article, Laura Italiano, tweeted late Tuesday afternoon that she had resigned from the newspaper. Italiano tweeted: "The Kamala Harris story -- an incorrect story I was ordered to write and which I failed to push back hard enough against -- was my breaking point."

The Post's Tuesday changes to the article, which was originally published on Friday, followed a Washington Post fact check in which a Long Beach spokesman explained that a community member had donated a single copy of the Harris children's book, "Superheroes Are Everywhere," as part of a book drive -- and that the book would not be handed out in a welcome kits.

The spokesman, Kevin Lee, told the Washington Post and later CNN that neither the federal government nor the city government had purchased copies of the Harris book. Lee told CNN in an email that books will be made available at the shelter in an informal library, not pre-selected for each child's welcome package.

LOLOLOLOLOLOL.

The story seemed ridiculous from the get-go but I've learned to not get too engaged with the breathless linking of every "Democrats are terrible" story that takes place here.

There are so many that are true that it is hard to tell which ones may be ringers.

I wonder what happened to the story of that BLM founder and her four houses? Suppressed or exposed?

Or the Hunter Biden stor(ies)? Suppressed or exposed?
