“I know it’s only May, but this is by far the dumbest piece you will read all year. We already had a shadow cabinet running this country in the Biden administration when we had a president whose brain turned to applesauce, and apparently other people were running the autopen,” Concha said on Fox News’s Fox & Friends on Wednesday. “That was just so inept, but perhaps Bill Nye, the science guy, Nikki Glaser, Letitia James, who may be going to jail, those could be possible upgrades from what we saw.”

Concha was referring to the allegations against James regarding “falsified” records she used to secure home loans for a Norfolk, Virginia, property she said was her “principal residence” as a New York prosecutor. By so doing, she likely received a better mortgage rate from a bank than if she had applied for a secondary residence loan.

“This proposed shadow government, I don’t understand the point because the current government right now is, according to the people, doing well on the economy, border, and issues people care about most,” Concha said. “Cabinet members are not elected by the people, right? These people are installed.”

He continued, “If people are not voting for those in power, that’s not democracy, that’s the politburo. We don’t want the Soviet Union in the United States.”

After President Donald Trump’s first speech to Congress in March, Slotkin delivered the Democratic response. The senator said she was working to improve the party and even implement some Republican strategies “from within.”

“Part of my strategy for the Democratic Party in this moment is about loudly reclaiming our patriotism,” Slotkin explained in an X post. “We’re fighting back *because* we love our country. And we need to take the flag back from the people who are spitting on our democracy.”

Slotkin has publicly disagreed with Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s (D-NY) “Fight the Oligarchy” tour. Her stances have earned her a segment on Real Time with Bill Maher and an op-ed from MSNBC anchor Jen Psaki proclaiming her the party’s “rising star.”
