And, IIRC, the epstein files even include email correspondence between Melania and Ghislaine. And the tone of the emails suggested they were quite friendly with one another.

The more Oz speaks, the more he confirms Trump's idiocy in appointing him to head up CMS.

"Just as I drew it up on the chalkboard..." Donald Trump, soon.

Seems he's abandoned the use of the euphemism, "when you're a star, they let you do it."

Spoliation.

I keep thinking she must have a member of her staff, whose salary and benefits we, the taxpayers, fund, who is tasked with coming up with catchy insults like "washed-up loser lawyer." Would be interesting to FOIA the docs and communications re: her prep for the hearing.

Par for the course for this cabinet (and for the cabinet of first Trump admin. I remember former then-Rep. Katie Porter schooling Ben Carson on how his department works.

FOIA

What, you're a combobulation skeptic?

Around 32% of Cassidy's constitutents are African American, and this is how he represents them? He fails to meet the moment every single time.

Who is the friend, and how is it that they are able to prove a negative?

Which reminds me that I've been wondering what Rex Tillerson is up to these days.

Troublemaker is my middle name.

Same!

Spot on. Greg Bovino's wikipedia bio says his great grandparents immigrated to the US in 1909. My grandparents immigrated a little later. I keep thinking that, if those Italian immigrants were subjected to the same level of harrassment as today's Somali-Americans, I might have never been born!

Strong wife beater vibes

You're forgetting that sometimes the perfect is the enemy of the good. Suozzi is good. Very good, in fact.

This whole thing is amazing but this part really sings.

This guy and his FBI were shut out of the investigation, and he is more than happy to step out of the way. Disgusting.

I'm skeptical about this because, while I understand Pam Bondi to be irredeemably corrupt, I dint't think she would be so stupid as to make a written record of her extortion attempt. Did she really do that?

If only he would restrict his recklessness to his driving

A lot of embarrssment to go around. I'd start with the voters in Ohio and elected him to the Senate, giving him a patina of legitimacy and a springboard to higher office.

Typical strawman bullshit from this disgusting excuse for a VP of US,

since Pete Maravich accomplished the feat at a time when it made sense for the franchise to be named "Jazz."

The G 17

Van Drew has a post on his Facebook page soliciting comment from members of the public about his performance, etc. Just sayin'....

Van Drew lecturing ANYONE about hypocrisy is uniquely rich. From very first page of his bio on Wikpedia: "...an American politician serving as the U.S. representative for New Jersey's 2nd congressional district since 2019. He was elected as a Democrat but joined the Republican Party in 2020"

Van Drew: "I always say I'm a simple guy..."

How is the use of tear gas in those circumstances not excessive use of force? What precisely was Bovino trying to accomplish through that action? Outrageous.

Yeah, but the only two Minnesotans who speak to Tom Emmer are his mother and his wife.
