… Plus the chances of leaking Epstein files details get bigger as his β€œstrength” erodes from the desperation.

Not to mention what this intense pressure is doing to his body.

Tick. Tock.

Bondi is incompetent. The attorney who volunteered to head her β€œinvestigation” is a Wall Street choad who has never prosecuted a traffic ticket. The political price to be paid by MAGAGOP is going to be more catastrophic by the day the longer they let it go …

If you're looking for a new Democratic Senate Leader, you won't do much better than Chris Murphy ...

Also the most inept. If this is Bondi’s idea you can bet it will fail spectacularly - and maybe even hysterically …

I have seen her. I will never belittle anyone with the nerve to run for office, but she is far down the list for me.

Now to explain to non-Chicagoans that Brendan Johnson has been excellent fighting Trump and ICE while also being kind of bad at the job of Mayor …

She actually only moved in the district in the last few months - she was in Streeterville before.

And if folks want to support a 20something Muslim woman in the race who actually IS a Chicagoan (and has won an election!), I recommend you look up Bushra Amiwala …

NATIONAL DREAM DESTINATION DAY UPDATES Mine is a Beach Property with Scuba Diving and Snorkeling Just Offshore and a Barbecue Pit – but Cool Restaurants Down the Road. Yours?

When you can start an update by accurately quoting yourself and end it with a Bugs Bunny clip, you KNOW you got something YOU need to read - and all in the service of summarizing yesterday's Epstein Files MADNESS. So, enjoy and spread the word and subscribe and leave a tip or pay for a subscription!

Keep waiting. She doesn't know the district, is not the only candidate fighting ICE (take a look at what Evanston Mayor Daniel Biss is doing to fight the goons with a target on his city), and isn't campaigning outside of CNN hits ...

I believe they have at least one extra signature (Don Bacon of NE) and I'm reading two more ... just for a cushion ...

They're proposing bans that are already in the law. Performative BS.

So Threads is now riven with rumors that Nancy Mace has withdrawn her signature on the petition for the Epstein Files. I wouldn't doubt this is more than possible and she would be a prime candidate to chicken out, but has anyone seen a reputable source to confirm?

VETERANS DAY UPDATES Honor and Respect to all Who Serve and Uphold the Oath to the Constitution

For all who follow me and have been waiting, here's my take on the Democrats, Schumer, ACA subsidies, where my anger is being placed, and what happens next. Plus, more mouth farts from we-know-who and all the regular stuff. Spread the word, leave a tip, subscribe one way or another - always, THANKS!

Um ... SNAP funding through September are part of the bills being discussed ... be pissed at Schumer and the Dems all you want about ACA, but this is MAGA-esque bullcrap - because Presidents are ALWAYS on the ballot in midterms, and Trump ain't going to get more popular ... also, this AI slop sucks.

Why would a guy who is supposedly going to be President for ever and ever and ever bother to pardon everyone for 2020 (which doesn't cover state prosecutions)? HMMMM....

10.11.2025 05:05 β€” πŸ‘ 1    πŸ” 1    πŸ’¬ 0    πŸ“Œ 0

Federal charges. Maybe. Could be so broad as to be useless. But they do NOT cover state indictments. Also, why would a guy who was going to be President forever and ever and ever bother to pardon everyone from the election we all know he lost in the first year of his office? Something we don't know?

Quick question: do these three supposed resolutions need a majority vote or does the filibuster need to be broken?

If the answer is β€œa majority,” then I presume those bills can also be filibustered?

If the leadership is voting against it, WHY WOULD THEY NOT LEAD THEIR SENATORS TO DO THE SAME?!?!

GO TO AN ART MUSEUM DAY UPDATES Now That You Mention It, It's Been Too Long Since I've Been to the Art Institute of Chicago or Museum of Contemporary Art ... (HEY - PLUGS! ANY FREEBIE ADMISSIONS?!?)

When I teach persuasive speech writing, I am big on figuring out the opposite side of any argument to understand and counter. That is the theme of today's Substack - to think about the GOP and where things stand ... with snark. Give it a read, like, spread the word, tip, and/or subscribe! Thanks!
