EXCLUSIVE: Someone Waived Ghislaine Maxwell's Sex Offender Status to Move Her to a Minimum Security Camp in Texas According to sources, you can't move someone with a Public Safety Factor (PSF) designation - which Maxwell had - without waiving it. That's what happened here.

You elect a sexual predator whose closest friend was a child rapist and you doubted he was in on the action? Now you’re surprised that he doesn’t want any new evidence of his involvement to get out? Really?

House Dems are still texting and calling Senate Dems pressuring them to vote no.

And House Dems are getting an earful too.

"I have also never had so many people from home personally texting meβ€”ANGRY," said one. "I don't think they knew who Chuck Schumer was before today."

I’m voting HELL NO on the Republican CR. It hands Musk and Trump a blank check, turningΒ yourΒ tax dollars into a wanna-be dictator’s slush fund. No accountability. Just corruption on autopilot.

Schumer’s decision is an unconscionable surrender that shows he does not have what it takes to meet this moment, and the charade he pulled yesterday makes it even worse. Time for new leadership in the Democratic Party.

I think some in the Senate have convinced themselves that the backlash to folding will be limited to β€œthe left” and therefore ignorable.

Those people are deeply and profoundly misreading the moment and the stakes.

Virtually every swing district House Dem walked the plank to vote NO for a reason.

It's not that Democrats routinely bring a knife to a gunfight. It's that they bring concern and regret to a gunfight.

When you feel like you need to move from protesting outside of USAID to protesting outside of Chuck Schumer’s office it’s time for a change. Let’s stop playing games. Let’s be honest with each other and as a party. This is not working and it is not acceptable. And this cannot continue.

Donald Trump wants to freeze all federal assistance to Americans starting at 5 PM EST.

Everyone must be holding the line and fighting back.

This is too important to stand silent.

A lot of people’s commitment to a liberal democratic order was contingent on the pretty big exception that they got to sexually harass and abuse women around them with impunity.
