The thing about the tremor in NY, is that tRump is all over the Epstein files.

Just enough of an earthquake to shift the dust off of the Epstein Files.

The most remarkable thing about the New York earthquakes is that Trump should release the Epstein files.

Trump has an able liar and hypocriteβ€”aka a propagandistβ€”as head of his National Economic Council.

If Joe Biden had told a cable show that non-whites were made for farm labor and insisted his approval rating was in the 70s and then climbed onto the roof of the fucking White House …

Why are UK News shows not pointing out Brexit has been a primary factor in the sky rocketing number of small boat crossings?

The President of the United States went on CNBC today and said: He won the 2020 election (he didn’t). He has a 71% approval rating (he doesn’t). The jobs numbers were rigged (they weren’t).

I could say something funny here, but I won’t. It’s just so damn dangerous to have him in the White House.

I wrote something about how the best we can all do right now is to buy time for democracy to heal through the political process. It's my thoughts about litigation, redistricting and the larger fight.

It just never ends. Pam Bondi has convened a grand jury to look into claims that members of the Obama administration may have violated federal law during their investigation into Russia’s role in the 2016 election.

"I obviously can't say everything to you. That's very apparent" -- Tammy Bruce is serving world historic word salads during today's press briefing. My heart goes out to reporters who have to pretend to take this gibberish seriously.

Bruce: "So... you know, there's... that's our opinion regarding the bill. Um. We also. How can I say that - um. I think that's as much as I can say in that regard. I-I-um. That's as much as I can say today. But I'll be back with you Thursday & will likely try to have as much more as I possibly can."

EPA suspends and investigates around 140 employees who signed a letter critical of the agency | CNN EPA administrator Lee Zeldin had a sharp response to the employee-signed letter.

No one should be suspended or fired just for exercising their First Amendment right to speak out.

I’m joining my colleagues in calling for these EPA employees to be reinstated immediately so they can keep doing the good work our country depends on.

Claiming that the Court is not going to strip away a constitutional (substantive due process) right because of precedent and related statutes is just so short-sighted.

Clarence Thomas is champing at the bit to overturn Obergefell. He hates substantive due process. I don't know what to tell y'all.
