You can't make it up:

Nice line. Cool metaphor.

Call me crazy, but I think Trump will beat the Epstein rap no matter how horrible his role was. He's beaten every crime so far, many unspeakable. If he hasn't been stopped yet, what makes this the time?

I agree. So many, many people failed their chance to stop Trump before he metastasized. Cowardice, primarily.

Trump and his goons are way beyond reprehensible. Call your GOP legislative cowards and "encourage" them to participate in democracy for once. Make them more afraid of us than of Trump. If enough of us harass them, they'll notice. Silence is not an option. It's us or nobody.

Time for Congress to wake up. Impeachment proceedings must start now.

I'm pretty sure there's not

I guess I'm an outlier, but I think that Trump would survive even the worst Epstein news. Think the horrible crimes he's already gotten away with.

"It can be tempting to bypass Congress when some pressing problem arises. But the deliberative nature of the legislative process was the whole point of its design.”
--Justice Neil M. Gorsuch

The GOP legislative cowards should take note.

#VOTEBLUE2026 Time to send the bums home.

I just called my GOP legislative coward, Jack Bergman, and invited him and his colleagues to participate in democracy for once. My job and yours: make him and his fellow cowards more afraid of us than of Trump.
It's us or nobody.

Please call your congressperson and ask them if they know it’s actually their job to stop billions of taxpayer dollars from being funneled into make-believe boards of peace

…and to stop the president from unilaterally declaring war

…and to demand compliance with the Epstein files Transparency Act

Why revisit the past? Or endure the present?

SCOTUS momentarily comes to its senses. Remarkable.

NYT:
"Late Night: Stephen Colbert Balks at Trump’s Board of Peace.
The host called the group 'kind of like the U.N., except instead of passing binding resolutions, you pass a greasy bag of money to Donald Trump.'"

A joke, but, of course, not a joke.

Andrew must be regretting not being born in the US. If he had, he could have avoided being arrested for his ties to Jeffrey Epstein by becoming president.
