The week in whoppers: Jeff Daniels' dumb anti-Trump slam, Jerry Nadler's stunning ignorance on ICE assaults and more

Diary of disturbing disinformation and dangerous delusions This complaint: '[Under Trump] we've lost decency, we've lost civility, we've lost respect for the rule of law.' — Jeff Daniels, Monday We say: Was Daniels in a coma when Democrats egged on the George Floyd rioters who burned their way through US cities in 2020? Or when Biden called Trump supporters 'garbage'? Or the left launched a politically driven, no-holds-barred, anti-Trump lawfare campaign? Or Joe Biden preemptively pardoned his influence-peddling, tax-evading, drug-addict son? Memo to the 'Dumb and Dumber' star: It was Democrats who tossed decency, civility and the rule of law out the window. This question: 'What attacks on ICE agents?' — Rep. Jerry Nadler (D-NY), Friday We say: Assaults against ICE agents spiked 830% since Trump took office, Homeland Security reports — thanks in no small part to Democrats' unhinged rhetoric toward federal agents. Just weeks ago, a mob in military gear attacked an ICE detention center, shooting at unarmed agents and a local cop. Yet asked about the violence, Nadler played dumb. If the congressman is truly unaware of the spate of assaults, he's unfit for office. This charge: 'The Trump administration is doing the work of our adversary, Russia.' — CNN's Beth Sanner, Wednesday We say: Democrats were obsessed with the Russiagate hoax for nearly a decade, pushing bad info from the debunked Steele dossier (with the help of their media lapdogs) that the Kremlin helped Trump win in 2016.

Check out more newsletters Now that Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard is claiming Team Obama knew Russia didn't tilt the election, but pushed that line anyway, Sanner insists she's helping Vladimir Putin. Please. This claim: 'There is likely no trade deal with Japan.' — Sen. Chris Murphy (D-Conn.), Wednesday We say: Sorry, Senator, but Prime Minister Ishiba Shigeru confirmed the deal the same day you fired off your disparaging take. The agreement, which the White House says will bring $550 billion in investments to the United States, is great news for America — but it's also a win for the president. No wonder Trump-hater Murphy doesn't want to believe it. — Compiled by The Post Editorial Board

Jeff Daniels chastises Trump voters: ‘I hope you're losing tons of money'

The actor Jeff Daniels has said he hopes those who voted for Donald Trump's second term in the White House lose money as a consequence. Speaking to MSNBC's The Best People With Nicolle Wallace podcast, Daniels addressed the president's supporters, saying: 'I hope you're losing tons of money, those of you who thought this would be OK. My question is, 'What are you guys going to do about it?'' Daniels continued by saying he believed Trump's slate of tariffs would cost him supporters. ''Wait a minute, the grocery bill is what? $180 more? I can't get that car that we have to have unless I pay another $8,000. What? Who do I blame for that? Who do I see about that?' One person. 'At the end of the day it would be about just the price of eggs, did it go up or down, because that's what he told me he was going to lower the price of eggs or my grocery bill,' Daniels continued, before describing the president as a 'snake-oil salesman.' Daniels said he had been surprised by the pace of change since Trump took office again in January. 'We've lost decency, we've lost civility, we've lost respect for the rule of law – lost it,' he said. 'We have normalised verbal abuse on the internet. We've normalised bullying; much as the woke generation tried to, you know, change that, it's back … 'I mean, nobody has great things to say about politicians. They never have. Go back to Mark Twain. But ideally, we're supposed to elect the best of us. Not the worst of us. He's everything that's wrong with not just America but with being a human being.' Daniels's most recent projects were TV series American Rust and A Man in Full. He rose to fame with roles in Ragtime, Terms of Endearment and Heartburn, before finding international acclaim in The Purple Rose of Cairo in 1985. Other films include Something Wild, The Squid and the Whale, Speed, Dumb and Dumber and Steve Jobs. He plays Ronald Reagan opposite Jared Harris as Mikhail Gorbachev in a forthcoming take on the 1986 Reykjavik Summit.

Daniels endorsed Kamala Harris in last year's election and said America has 'lost decency' under Trump. 'We've lost decency, we've lost civility, we've lost respect for the rule of law — lost it,' Daniels explained. 'We have normalized verbal abuse on the internet.
