Absolutely. Release the Epstein files, then impeach.

Trump’s former Surgeon General Dr. Jerome Adams rips RFK Jr. for canceling nearly $500 million in grants and contracts for mRNA vaccine development
Trump named Pete Hegseth as defense secretray because he knew Hegseth wouldn't hesitate to order American troops to fire on American civilians. Sending the military into our cities is a major step toward imposing a dictatorship.
It's so obvious that mainstream media are afraid to say it.
Lisa Kudrow nailed it! This was the best
Republican impersonation I have ever seen, I was even getting upset thinking this was real. Love it!
At first I thought she was impersonating Marcia Blackburn.

I am not a fan of conspiracy theories, but I would not be surprised if the election was rigged. I've not seen an honest GOP member in a long time.

History and Article IV’s Guarantee Clause makes clear that a state’s governor cannot remove members of the legislature. No governor has ever claimed such power. It runs against the full history of Texas and American democracy as a whole.

Good morning!
Trump is the opposite of manly. Beta
He wears makeup. He whines non-stop. He’s always a poor victim. He dodged the draft. He have never served anything noble. He’s desperate for approval. He smells like the inside of a warm prison on the bayou, he hikes his pants up high
Just a reminder that immigrants are good for society and the economy. https://youtu.be/LCl9-uaKzv8?feature=shared

Just one problem. Crime is down in DC.
Read about the facts, & also the legal context as the administration’s legal authority to interfere with local law enforcement goes on trial today in a California courtroom. open.substack.com/pub/joycevan...
The “investigations” into James and Schiff are patently bogus and retaliatory but in hands as dirty as Ed Martin’s they could prove costly to fend off. Trump and Bondi are acting like a tin pot dictator and his consigliere. All so predictable and utterly pathetic

Let’s be clear about what’s happening. Violent crime in DC is at a 30-year low. There is no emergency. This is a test run. If the courts, Congress, and the rest of us let him get away with this, he’ll do it in every city that doesn’t capitulate to him.

“Education, like democracy, has long been a work in progress. But that progress has come by remaining fixed on our fundamental ideas, not questioning them because of our own failures to reach them—and certainly not replacing them with something else.”

Donald Trump and Republicans are pushing illegal maps that violate the Voting Rights Act.
Instead, Congress should pass fair, independent maps nationwide. Without that, Democratic states must consider all the options to protect our constitutional republic.

If you’re enjoying a weekend down the shore, don’t thank Jack — he voted against relief for New Jerseyans three times after Superstorm Sandy.
Who does that?
