There is such a thing as truth

she was a horrible person. she likely still is a horrible person. she's also shown remorse and apologized and offered something resembling an apology. I do not believe in karmic get of jail free cards, but if she works long and hard enough, she can regain her humanity.

that is an impressive feat in a saga of gnarly powerful old white guys using leverage against young women. olbermann clarifying that she was a legal 19 is pitch perfect.

one has to wonder if trump thinks he can win the love of the masses by embracing populism and affordability and if he somehow thinks that will somehow save him from ruin.

if hunter's remains had not been shot into the sky from a cannon, his corpse would be rolling over at this comparison. we live in dark, stupid times.

Cool. Put Speaker Johnson on the list of elected officials who seemingly do not believe in the US Constitution. His district constituents should be informed of this. Reminding service members to follow their oaths is not treason. Why would Speaker Johnson or others think otherwise?

Dear Congress and the Courts: Just a quick reminder that there are 3 separate but equal branches of government. Please exercise your constitutional duties and address this mortal threat to the Constitution, the Rule of Law, and the very foundation of this republic.

so, if the President of the United States threatens capital punishment for treason against his political foes, that's ok. But, if a political opponent suggests the same for maga then that's illegal. Got it. How very N. Korea of us.

It feels like the media has surrendered to his torrent of vile bile. From "grab them by the p*ssy" to today... I am stunned that none of her colleagues said one word about it at the time. If any CEO had said that in any meeting, he would be summarily fired. It empowers him to say and do worse things

"if they will vote for trump, maybe I am NOT too crazy to be president."

the mistake is that he regrets deeply that he got caught. he will try to be more careful then next time a journalist pisses him off.

racist, misogynist, bigoted, drooling half-wit with rapidly declining mental acuity is our president... and some willingly coddle him for their own personal gain. this is some operatic evil underway.

if you are so detached from morality that you would have your wedding reception at that place, then you deserve addled stinky diaper mango mussolini wandering around lost in the middle of it. he probably shat in the punch bowl and groped the maid of honor.

I am not saying mango mussolini blew Billy's willy on tape. but, many people are saying it, indeed. 😀

mango mussolini and maga mommy are fighting again. save the children.

the trials for all these nazis are going to be must-see tv.

"just following orders" is not a defense. and, all these public messages are evidence.

Coming to this site to watch all kinds of smart folks dunk on nuzzi and the nyt is a great start to the weekend!

I couldn't get past the few couple 'graphs about his deep blue eyes and such. And they say journalism is dead!

except for their drooling idiots (of which there are many), they do not want the files released because trump is their tool to do manifest evil. if he is defeated, their toxic coalition of special interests may fail. they don't care at all about the children harmed. #epstein

At least he asked for a handy in a private location? Seems out of character for a serial groped

while it would be heartening to believe they stayed united out of a sense of value and purpose, the repubs didn't need any dem house votes. had they needed some, the corp owners of some dems would have demanded they capitulate. just like the senate.

the oligarchs intend to break democracy and create a feudal state. in that society of lords and vassals, lords have the latitude to do what they want.

this sets up her changing her mind on her support to release the files. the depravities that maga is will to engage in and overlook in order to use this hollow immoral compromised shit-bag of a president to advance their own agendas...

If only someone could have foreseen this...

this is perhaps the kindest interpretation. the alternative is that they favor their own-lined pockets and they personally fear retribution from the federal government if they do not obey.

it is a coordinated capitulation, wildly unpopular with the base, after a stunning set of results on Tuesday. the conclusion once again is that their own pocketbooks lined by special interests are far more important to them than the voters that they purport to represent.

@schumer.senate.gov no longer has the goods to be leader. he's failed. the overwhelming majority of voters do not support capitulation. did the others who caved give him cover to vote "no"? epic misreading of the base. the republicans are laughing at you.

usually, I support compromise and moderation to get a deal done. These are not usual times. you don't compromise with fascists. primary every dem senator who caves. read the room, you weak-kneed self interested "leaders"... we resist authoritarianism and oligarchy. we don't cooperate with them.

This is it. I was one of those poor rural white guys. It was a good book and accounting of that. And then he sold himself.

this is a real PROFILES IN COURAGE moment for Kennedy. trump looks like he doesn't know where he is or what is happening. I don't think any of them will get out of the new bunker as quickly as jr. got out of the office here.

Getting called an evil woman by this facist clown is a badge of honor
