"The first person who congratulated [Joe Biden] was Bibi [Benjamin] Netanyahu, the man that I did more for than any other person I dealt with… Bibi could have stayed quiet. He has made a terrible mistake.
“He was very early,” Mr Trump said. "Like earlier than most. I haven’t spoken to him since. [Expletive] him.
In actual fact, Mr Netanyahu was not the first foreign leader to congratulate Mr Biden. He also tweeted his gratitude towards Mr Trump minutes later.
Members of the House Select Committee investigating the January 6 attack on the US Capitol believe that former Texas Governor and Trump Energy Secretary Rick Perry was the author of a text message sent to then-White House chief of staff Mark Meadows the day after the 2020 election pushing an “AGRESSIVE (sic) STRATEGY” for three state legislatures to ignore the will of their voters and deliver their states’ electors to Donald Trump, three sources familiar with the House Committee investigation tell CNN.
Mainly linking this because what follows is amazing:
A spokesman for Perry told CNN that the former Energy Secretary denies being the author of the text.
Oh, he denies it, okay…
Multiple people who know Rick Perry confirmed to CNN that the phone number the committee has associated with that text message is Perry’s number.
The cell phone number the text was sent from, obtained from a source knowledgeable about the investigation, appears in databases as being registered to a James Richard Perry of Texas, the former governor’s full name.
The number is also associated in a second database as registered to a Department of Energy email address associated with Perry when he was secretary.
When told of these facts, the spokesman had no explanation.
I guess it’s just a mystery…
What gets me is he was taught not to lie, just like the rest of us, when he was a kindergartener.
All these assholians involved in this were taught the same damn shit about human decency as most of the rest of us were. And I’m no saint, but compared to Perry - I’m Motherfucking Teresa on a flaming wafer!
Talk about evil vs. evil.
Who else isn’t surprised?
Aside from the expected insanity here… Christmas service a week before Christmas? And here I thought it was just the stores that were pushing things way ahead of time.
Not to mention the super-spreaderness…-spreadicity?
The poison that keeps on poisoning…
@mindysan33 - do you sometimes wish that General George C. Marshall could’ve been immortal? And did he ever screw up, I wonder?
