Halligan's incompetence is so overwhelming that the practical legal answers of how to unravel the situation devolve to esoteric questions of philosophy.

I love this for them

Let me tell you about the other Epstein files the Trump administration is STILL HIDING — records that aren’t affected by the bill Congress passed today.

It also kinda feels like this is something men are clued in on? As a woman I did not know the true extent of it until now and it’s horrifying. You assume you won’t be believed, but I thought that was more of an unspoken patriarchy thing than an actual dues paying membership club

One thing I’ve learned since yesterday is that there’s a sexual assaulters club. And if you’re in the club, all other club members will go to great lengths to defend not only your right to sexually assault in the past and future, but your right to be free from even the most tepid consequence.

Record Numbers of Younger Women Want to Leave the U.S. The percentage of younger women in the U.S. who express a desire to migrate permanently has surged in the past decade.

"In 2025, 40% of women aged 15 to 44 say they would move abroad permanently if they had the opportunity. The current figure is four times higher than the 10% who shared this desire in 2014, when it was generally in line with other age and gender groups."

NYT had details of Trump's engagement with Jeffrey Epstein's child sex trafficking and *hid it for him*, at the same time it was crucifying Clinton as untrustworthy due to her document retention & security.

Like I dunno, maybe the reason it took a lady to break open the story of all the men protecting the dude trafficking underage girls is because the male journos were all emailing him making jokes about it?

The New York Times helped cover for Epstein. I wish I was shocked by this.

A former New York Times staffer quietly left the paper after revealing he had solicited charitable donations from Jeffrey Epstein Former New York Times reporter Landon Thomas Jr. told his editors he became friends with Epstein after profiling him in 2008, NPR reported Thursday.

This exact same reporter was ousted from the NY Times for soliciting a $30,000 donation from Epstein— and you're telling me that as an employer, the NY Times never bothered to circle back and review this person's correspondence with a convicted pedophile?

Epstein: I’m best friends with this pedo running for President, here’s a bunch of stories about how big a pedo he is

NYT: but her emails

Assuming Todd Blanche conducted that sham interview under oath, which is a big assumption, I realize, seems like Maxwell should be charged with perjury on top of everything else

None here either. Love seeing them vicariously though!

This is great! Thank you!

Why in gods name is domas still playing?

Keon doing Keon things immediately. Crowd goes wild 💜

I dunno if I can take a failure of kings leadership on top of the failure of dem leadership #freekeon

They caved in March so they could get a better deal now. They’re caving now so they can get a better deal in some indeterminate future. The better deal is always just beyond their reach, but continuing to cave will get them there. And if you don’t agree with that, you don’t understand Politics,

🧵

Don't just focus on the senators who voted yes. Pay attention to the ones who were rumored to want to cave because they are just as responsible. Off the top of my head is Ossoff and Booker.

Important to understand this. There's a reasonable chance that your Dem Senator who voted against it and is acting mad now was in on the play. It's the same reason why they scheduled the surrender for AFTER the election this week. They didn't want people pissed at Dems right before an election.

My family has been without half our income for 40 days. It has been.. very hard.

We are willing to feel that pain so people can have health care next year, or to undo these illegal recissions.

We are not willing to have been put through this for NOTHING.

@schiff.senate.gov @padilla.senate.gov Will you call on Schumer to step down given that he is worse than ineffectual at his job? Your constituents are watching.

Sen Gary Peters is in his own way the biggest embarrassment of the lot. He’s been a leader of Team Cave and he’s retiring. So there’s no politics or risk aversion. He wants to cave as a matter of genuine principle.

Should be pretty clear that without House commitment on a vote on ACA extensions, it is purely symbolic as part of the Senate deal
