My hope is that it's a signal of the end of "us v them" politics and the moment when the Ds & Rs united to halt fascism and an oligarchy.

What a sad, sad definition of "ordinary times."

The number of "Republican donors, allies, friends, etc" that require pardons is staggering.

There has been some reporting that "100 Republicans" will vote to release the Epstein files. It is possible that the "Vichy" Democrats are reopening the govt to facilitate that. If so, that could halt the entire MAGA/Project 2025 plots by obliterating the felon and his stranglehold on the govt.

MAGA wants you to release the Epstein files.

Experts Say Blue States Can Stop Paying Federal Taxes. There’s Precedent If we could use nullification for people to get high, why can’t we use it to protect human rights and stop fascism?

I believe you meant "Yours in Christ, Mike Johnson" -- no?

There's some controversy about how "true" the story is but a lot of agreement on it being well told.

Last week he was a genius. Let's see what next week brings.
I'm not a "blind faith" sort but that the senators who "caved" are not seeking re-election strikes me as strategic. What the strategy is, I wouldn't guess at, but it seems deliberate and these are smart, experienced people.

My heart is with you. My cat Stella is at least 17 -- I'm not sure how old she was when she came to me -- and things are starting to go. I recently turned 70 and I think she may be my last cat, but not quite yet. πŸ˜½β€οΈβ€πŸ©Ή

Follow the money. Always follow the money.
Sen Wyden (OR) and his staff have been investigating this aspect for 3+ years.
Did you wonder why Portland, OR, was targeted by the felon?

I'm more interested in the financial aspects. Sen Wyden (OR) & his staff have been looking into that for 3+ years.
Also, there must be other & duplicate records around the world. There could be a "show me yours, I'll show you mine" situation. I'm happy with whatever it takes to break this situation.

This could open the govt long enough to get the Epstein files released and Trump et al out of office so we can all move on. There's starting to be reporting about how deeply horrifying the files are. This might be a "sacrifice the queen" chess move.

Getting the Epstein files released and Trump et al out of office so we can all move on may be what's behind the "surrender." There's starting to be reporting about how deeply horrifying the files are and that even the MAGA/Republicans have had enough.
