It's interesting that Bondi can release records of former special counsel Jack Smith, but can't release the Epstein files. It's interesting how Bondi can indict Comey for a "supposed" lie, but not indict Homan for taking $50,000. DISBAR BONDI!

“Worst of the worst,” my ass. Unconscionable and pointless cruelty.

We are in late-stage authoritarian media takeover.

Fox and CNN are owned/controlled by rightwing billionaires.
Twitter and Truth Social
WSJ and WaPo
CBS and ABC
Newsweek, Sinclair, now Tegna; TikTok getting close.

We are far along in the Putin-mold media takeover plan.

If Republicans can casually ignore precedent, so can Democrats.

Speaker Johnson has no right to stop duly elected representatives from taking office.

Call a press conference on the capitol steps, and swear in Democratic Representative-Elect Adelita Grijalva - NOW.

I’m guessing those saying so were not alive for or do not recall Kent State.

She is, in fact, the PERFECT head of the “Justice” department in this utterly amoral, petty, vengeful, incompetent badministration. I would like them all to rot in hell but would settle for fair trials for their blatant law-breaking.

By all means, indict Jack Smith on bullshit allegations and give him the trial that SCOTUS denied him.

Poke the bear, Donnie. See what happens.

Don’t think these Texas National Guard guys are going to be chasing any immigrants around Chicago on foot

And if wealthy people hadn't slashed state and local taxes once they had to share the money, our schools might not be struggling and be better *universally* than they were 50 years ago, too, but privileged people don't do that. 4/4

Why do I suspect more privatization to unqualified contractor friends will follow?

Paxton is as motivated to deflect attention from his own criminality and corruption as the Dear Leader.

If Chicago wanted to make those Texas soldiers feel at home, they'd wait for a blizzard, then turn off all the power and go to Cancun for the weekend.

And the Dear Leader has the nerve to call US the insurrectionists. This is a goon squad takeover. And it is INTOLERABLE.

I listened to a lot of Frau Blondi’s disgraceful performance today and can only hope that one day karma catches up with someone so unremittingly awful—and incredibly incompetent at any job requiring respect for and knowledge of the law.

His House members should not be paid, then, for all the weeks he shuts them down to avoid RELEASING THE EPSTEIN FILES.

Excellent piece with convincing statistics to counter Bobby Junior’s BS.
