1. That's gonna take a while. Best get started on those.

The public needs to know who enabled all these deaths in this horror show.

4. Sulu SLAM, Baby!

Wondering if the Trump Cultist is also a Dr Oz acolyte. George is King, either way.

Can you tell us who slashed the security budget for our international embassies and consulates, including the one in Benghazi? No? That's okay because I fucking can:

Since retaking control in 2010, House Republicans have aggressively cut spending at the State Department in general and embassy security in particular. (Jason) Chaffetz and (Darrell) Issa and their colleagues voted to pay for far less security than the State Department requested in 2011 (...)

Is that responsible for the tragedy in Benghazi? Probably not, at least not entirely. Usually when security goes wrong, it's down to a cascade of small failures piling up. But it's a bit rich to complain about a lack of US security personnel at diplomatic missions on the one hand, while actively working to cut the budget to pay for US security personnel at diplomatic missions on the other.

6. Yup. And who dismantled the White House Pandemic office in 2018?

And who said concerns about the pandemic was a hoax? And who botched the testing rollout? Hint: it wasn't the C-H-I-N-E-S-E.
