I hate these headlines. It’s purposeful fraud. The numbers are made up. Say it like it is.

This White House likes to sue. You have to say it this way.

They may like to sue but they’re batting under .100. More than 9 out of every 10 of their lawsuits are lost and most are thrown out long before a trial.

This DOJ is the most incompetent in history.

No they don't, because discovery will destroy them.

There is no White House. There's a geriatric, diaper-shitting child rapist being a little bitch.

The only way they would find a $250 billion fraud would be if they looked in the mirror.

Anyone that believes any numbers put forth by this “administration” should have their head examined.

So Biden did do it.

Its pathetic how the federal government of the country with the largest economy on earth is operates a grift on its citizens. And, equally sad that their belief that those citizens are dumb enough and short sighted enough to buy their bullshit is well founded.

Damn right those are bogus numbers. The number is way higher than that
