What's next for Congress in the push to release more Epstein files The bill would force the Justice Department to release all Epstein-related files, with some redactions.

If the Epstein file bill gets through the Senate, DT will veto it. If congress doesn’t override his veto, the Dems will go after the seats of those who enabled DT’s coverup.

Trump ends support for Marjorie Taylor Greene amid growing Epstein feud President turns on β€˜Wacky Marjorie’ after congresswoman criticizes effort to block release of key Epstein documents

I’m agreeing with MTGreen.. Although that’s how our government used to work. I don’t agree with her on most issues, I would compromise on some and on other issues I would hold my ground. The ghost of Jeffrey Epstein will haunt DT til his dying days.

You know I disagree with you. Apparently you listened to the video Explain (in a nice way)what proportional representation is. And do you think all states would go along with that

Epstein’s Ghost Christmas Past is coming for Trump…and MAGA

β€œThe rape of children is not the tariff disaster. These crimes fill people with revulsion across the political spectrum. It can’t be blanked, wheedled out of with weasel words, equivocated, blustered into submission or drowned out with MAGA slogans.”

America First? Some Trump Supporters Worry That’s No Longer the Case.

We may save this country yet. There’s still redistricting and voter suppression. Not small issues. We have to wait until after the midterms to breathe a sigh of relief. But this is a start

No money for healthcare BUT $500,,000 for the republican senators on alleged privacy disclosures during the January 6th hearings. That’s $500,000 per device + costs. They could get millions. The doesn’t apply to House members..

Here's how many strikes on alleged drug vessels the U.S. has announced Since September, the Trump administration has carried out more than a dozen strikes on boats it claims are run by drug traffickers, killing more than 70 people.

The Defense Department is just murdering people at will.. The punishment should fit the crime. Once again the rule of law is lost on this regime

The Democrats got a pinky promise from Republicans regarding the Affordable Care Act That’s a joke & will go nowhere. Republicans don’t seem to want healthy Americans.

Five Democrats changed their position and 271 Republicans changed their position. Compromise. The bill increases S.N.A.P. benefits. The bill rehires 4,000 federal workers that were fired during the shutdown with back pay. The Republicans didn’t want to do either.

I was outraged the Democrats β€œcaved” & ended the shutdown. I’m still pissed we didn’t get an extension of the A/C/A.. Lawrence O’Donnell, who worked in senate, explained what the Democrats did get from compromising. Republicans wanted a clean bill with no compromises.

Once the government shutdown is over, will the speaker swear in the duly elected representative
Adelita Grijalva? Will some republicans then decide to take their names off the petition to release the Epstein Files? I don’t trust any republicans anymore.
