Notable Quotes

— Tim Pool · opening segment on main story
“The corporate press is claiming he failed. He did the worst. I love it. The New York Times saying Nikki Haley actually did the best. And Vivek did the worst. Meanwhile, all of the trends, all the searches are Vivek, Vivek, Vivek. He absolutely nailed it.”
