What? WHAT?!?! I mean wow. So now we’ll have Hegseth who won’t drink a drop of alcohol (on his word alone) and this Epstein associate who will sell his attachments to Epstein? Why now? Why not when the world knew he was a horrible pedophile years ago.

listen to this response from John Thune and note how *even MAGA Republicans* are no longer pretending Trump isn't personally directing harassment investigations against his political foes

That word works!

With the leak to the NYT of their internal notes to each other, I hope the conservative justices on SCOTUS are currently *very* paranoid about talking to each other. Because at least one of them is (or has staff who is) indiscreet and disloyal.
