Deciding whether or not somebody is a Nazi based on whether they have Jewish relatives is so 2015.
Don't forget the National Security Advisor. Because why would you need an additional voice in the room during a time of multiple wars.
Also, I love that "Coach" Tommy Tuberville didn't get an invite.

Hey Gen Z, if you thought the Menendez Brothers story was wild, back in the late 70's the biggest story on TV was the Iran Hostage Crisis. Covered on every outlet for 444 days straight. Then it turned out Republicans prolonged it in order to win an election. Then they sold the bad guys weapons.
In other words, in the late 70's and early 80's, the most important people in the Republican Party were doing illegal weapons deals with a country that the Republican Party now tells us has been an "imminent threat" all along.
But even if they could accuse Reagan of committing crimes, his vice president George HW Bush would have pardoned him, just like he pardoned all of the people who could have implicated Bush in the scheme. (Did you know Bush was the former head of the CIA?)

Reagan knew about the illegal sale of weapons to Iran and wanted money to go to Nicaragua, but investigators couldn't prove he knew about the whole illegal scheme because he couldn't remember important details, likely because he was suffering from Alzheimer's.

Of course, a few years later the Reagan administration would illegally sell weapons to Iran, then illegally funnel the procedes to rebels in Nicaragua.

This morning I felt like reading about Ronald Reagan, the patron saint of the Republican Party, whose campaign officials convinced Iranian rebels to keep Americans hostage long enough for him to win the 1980 election.

Or, he doesn't see a way to make money off of the situation. Maybe all of his mercenaries got hired to be ICE agents.
If you were making a satirical GOP campaign ad, would it look very different from this?
Tom Cotton is only 48 years old but I'd still like him to explain if Ronald Reagan was a traitor for facilitating the sale of missiles to Iran while they were an imminent threat to the United States.

Confirming that Nancy Mace is insane.
Who's pathetic, the vice president leaking his "thinking" or the so-called journalist granting him anonymity?
Looking forward to your next gig hosting the Randy Awards.
Feel free to bet on whether or not Trump is going to start a war, or raise tariffs, or whatever. But you should understand that the insiders in the White House making millions off those bets are taking *your* money.

Speakers can function as microphones so a spy at Mar-a-Lago wouldn't even need to try that hard. Just tap into the stereo system and listen in.

Trump campaigned on being against the type of war he just started. But also you vote for a president knowing that s/he might be forced to make tough decisions for the country that differ from campaign promises. Which is why you vote for a smart person with good character, not an ignorant conman.
Being a pedophile is still worse than failing to prosecute a pedophile.
