Narrative Analysis: Plain Folks

Louisiana Rep. Sen. Bill Cassidy is still out there trying to defend the indefensible. He knew better than to confirm Kennedy, but he caved to this administration and did it anyway, and has been twisting himself in knots ever since. He was at it again during an extended interview on this Sunday's Face the Nation on CBS, and now he's come up with a new excuse for allowing the anti-vaxx whackaloon to become the head of HHS -- it would have been worse if they hadn't because Trump would have just made Kennedy a health czar and then there wouldn't have been any guardrails in place around Kennedy. The notion that there are any Republican guardrails around a single person in this administration is laughable: Sen. Bill Cassidy strongly criticized Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F.

Todd Starnes Claims That 'Scandalized' Republicans 'Get The Boot'

Reacting to the allegations against Graham Platner, Todd Starnes laughably claims that whenever there is some sort of a scandalized individual in the Republican Party, they get the heave-ho, they get the boot. We certainly saw that with, for example, Matt Gaetz.
