🎭 The administration’s victory theater is collapsing under the weight of its own contradictions.

Trump declared Iran’s nuclear sites “completely obliterated” while his own vice president admitted they’re uncertain about what actually happened to the uranium stockpiles. Republicans tried to hide $3.8 trillion in tax cut costs with accounting gimmicks that fooled no one.

They also tried to shield Trump from judicial accountability, but the Senate parliamentarian blocked their scheme cold. Even their own officials won’t back up their claims, their budget math is exposed as fraudulent, and institutions keep catching them in real time as they try to escape consequences for their actions.

The facade only works if people stop paying attention to the contradictions. Keep watching, keep calling your representatives, and keep demanding they defend the institutions that are still catching these lies.
