Just me

happy epstein thermonuclear launch day to all who celebrate

My takeaway from every new Epstein revelation is that some powerful people victimized many powerless young women, many more knew, some actively enabled it--and we're still being told that MeToo and accountability for sexual violence have gone too far

As Karoline Leavitt concludes her press briefing and walks off, @andrewfeinberg.com asks: "What was the president doing with Virginia Giuffre for hours at Epstein's house?"

She did not respond.

GOOD MORNING EVERYONE

Today is a good day to

🚨BREAKING: At long last, Mike Johnson will swear in Rep.-elect Adelita Grijalva on Wednesday at 4 pm ET.

Welp!

They who surrender to bullies will bow down twice as quickly the next time the bully comes calling.

They’ve been trying to blow up the ACA for over a decade, yet they don’t have viable plan to replace it.

They don’t have anything to make it better because they don’t want to make it better.

What they want is the ACA gone and everyone at the mercy of private insurance again.

FOX NEWS: So what would Trumpcare look like?

The U.S. Supreme Court was given the wrong numbers. The “unwind” in the event of a negative decision on Tariffs, would be, including investments made, to be made, and return of funds, in excess of 3 Trillion Dollars. It would not be possible to ever make up for that kind of a “drubbing.” That would truly become an insurmountable National Security Event, and devastating to the future of our Country - Possibly non-sustainable!

Oh, so he totally stole the money

Democratic Caving Senators: You have mistimed the occasion and snatched defeat from the jaws of victory.

Dems get a mini-Blue Wave, a possible preview of the midterms, and so the Senate Minority Leader decides to end the Democratic Party

If you think the people throwing Great Gatsby-esque parties for themselves, while millions were denied their food assistance, are all of a sudden going to grow a conscience and save affordable healthcare, you clearly have not been paying attention.

Trump issues fake pardons for fake electors The president can't pardon cronies facing state charges. He's trying anyway.

Exactly right. Why should we respect a president who doesn’t respect the constitution he swore an oath to uphold?

Senate Vote Advances Deal To End Shutdown As 8 Democrats Break Rank The deal, which does not include any guarantees on extending health care subsidies, came under sharp criticism from several Democratic leaders.

The deal, which does not include any guarantees on extending health care subsidies, came under sharp criticism from several Democratic leaders.

Democrats were overwhelmingly united on their shutdown demands.

Americans understood that Trump and Republicans were to blame.

Voters made it known last Tuesday that they'll elect leaders who stand up to Trump.

Democrats held the cards — and folded for no reason.

In response to this claim that the "strategy didn't work."

The people were on our side. We were building momentum to help save our democracy. We could have won - the premium increase notices were just starting.

And giving in now will embolden him. Things will likely get worse.

Speaker Johnson has literally said he's "not promising anyone anything."

For once, I believe him.

In a time when the Democratic Party urgently needs Winston Churchills, it has far too many Neville Chamberlains.

Every time you capitulate to a bully, they'll come back at you twice as brutally.

If you didn't learn this life lesson in third grade, GTFO of the US Senate.
