“But his emails!” Man, cut to the chase and “lock him up!” before he tears down the Capitol or bombs Blue cities.

There’s real irony in this: lawmakers can’t get back to DC to vote to reopen the government because flights are canceled, thanks to the same shutdown they caused.

Jon Gruden urges NFL to dump Thursday Night Football: 'It's not fair to the players' Jon Gruden misses being a head coach in the NFL, but one thing he doesn’t miss is coaching games on Thursday Night Football.

So Jon Gruden thinks the NFL should end Thursday Night Football: awfulannouncing.com/nfl/jon-grud...

The NFL would never do that. What they should do is add a second bye week for each team with those mainly tied to Thursday night games as much as possible.

BIG NEWS: Congresswoman-elect Adelita Grijalva will finally be sworn in as a member of Congress tomorrow.

She is likely to be the 218th vote on the Epstein discharge petition, which would force a full vote to release the Epstein files in their entirety.

We have the burden of proving it and we may very well could prove it.

There was a point of no return and this was it.

I agree they could have held out BUT there were limits. The real problem is the greed of those who seem to NEED more money to get "bling" for their "masters" so dog-eat-dog mega-elites won't humiliate them, especially those outside the US.

Breaking: Election Truth Alliance Files Lawsuit Seeking 2024 Ballot Access in Pennsylvania Over 45,000 Concerned Citizens Weren’t Enough to Convince Al Schmidt to Allow a Third-Party Audit

The @electiontruthalliance.org (Election Truth Alliance) has now filed a lawsuit to force Pennsylvania to do a full recount of the 2024 election:

thiswillhold.substack.com/p/breaking-e...

If this succeeds, we could see subsequent lawsuits that could wind up proving the election was indeed stolen.

Doing what YOU wanted even if they got the ACA subsidies would have been costly as many in the general public would have turned on the Dems for holding out too long and their losing SNAP for one.

If they had gone further like many loudmouth Dems wanted on the ACA, even if they eventually did get all of the concessions on THAT, they would have lost the war.

This may have been part of why the Dems caved. Also SNAP in particular.

President Trump wants new Commanders stadium to be named after him The news coincides with his plan to attend Sunday's Commanders game.

So Trump wants the new stadium for the Commanders named for HIM: www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootb...

Maybe they could placate him for now and do it while being built. but then after it opens go and rename it (maybe perhaps RFK Sr. Stadium since RFK was the name of the old stadium on that site)?

I wonder if behind the scenes Benjamin Netanyahu is ordering Trump to do this, making him do so until the Dems agree not to vote to release the Epstein Files under any circumstances because he fears he and other Israeli officials are in them and Spain could use such against them in war crimes trials

So the Epstein vote isn't the only reason Mike Johnson should fear Rep. Yassamin Ansari. More of this, please.

Your Honor, I ask no mercy and I plead for no immunity. I realize that finally the right must prevail. I never so clearly comprehended as now the great struggle between the powers of greed and exploitation on the one hand and upon the other the rising hosts of industrial freedom and social justice.

I can see the dawn of the better day for humanity. The people are awakening. In due time they will and must come to their own.

In 1918, Eugene Debs was convicted of sedition for publicly opposing American participation in World War I. Debs gave a statement upon being convicted that was, among other things, hopeful that we would make a more just society. Last night, Mamdani said those words from his victory stage.
