The Senate has confirmed Pam Bondi as U.S. attorney general. Her confirmation puts a longtime ally of Donald Trump at the helm of a Justice Department that has already been rattled by the firings of career employees seen as disloyal to the Republican president.

The vote fell almost entirely along party lines, with only Sen. John Fetterman, a Pennsylvania Democrat, joining with all Republicans to pass her confirmation 54-46.

With no due respect, fuck Fetterman.

Democrats need to do better.

      I has a TBI when I was a kid, and other than thinking classical libertarianism had a place in any modern society, I just keep getting more angrily lefty as time goes on.

      Maybe if I tried breaking my head open as an adult it would have been different?

      My father was republican, which makes sense because he worked in finance, but it wasn’t until his TBI that he started drinking the Maga kool-aid.
