Opinion | Trump’s Trade Representative: Why We Remade the Global Order

Dems didn’t fight RFK hard enough. People like Bernie and Polis were even like “yes we can work with him on health policy”. They should have dug in much harder and now there’s no way to get rid of him as he dismantles our health and biomedical science systems

"Why is it that they are not subpoenaing the one man who has literally seen all the evidence that exists on behalf of the federal government?" Spencer Kuvin, attorney for Epstein survivors points out the absurdity of Alex Acosta not being subpoenaed. "It's the one subpoena they should have issued."

Republican friend,

Maybe we're wired differently. I don't wake up in the morning burdened to be cruel to people; to actively push them to the periphery, place obstacles in their paths, or deny them the things I have been fortunate enough to have received.
