Promises, promises. She's quickly becoming another Rep. Massie - promising to tell all about Epstein but not doing it.
Rep. Jared Huffman: βIf weβre honest about whatβs going on, we have a madman in the White House who is running roughshod, who is running the most corrupt criminal grift in American history out of the White House.β

YAY!

Facebook appears to be censoring Heather Cox Richardson. She tried to post an explosive piece on the influence Orban and Putin have had over Republican politics in America, particularly CPAC. Hereβs a link to the article on substack - pass it on!

Most of us have known this for decades. Megyn Kelly was well-paid to lie to Americans. And sheβs just figured it out now????
It was a little weird when one descent video looked like something was burning off from the top of the capsule. Maybe an odd rΓ©flection.
She and Newsom really need to talk. I thought Harris WAS the best candidate for 2024. BUT...the racism/sexism of too many voters in the US is just too strong. I think Newsom, Pritzker and maybe even Shapiro might have a better chance (though...anti-semitism is still an issue among many US voters).
I feel a tiny bit of guilt over 2 great X many grandfathers who kept at least 2 people in slavery in the north when slavery was still legal there.. BUT - many white people have still been treating black people in a hideously unfair manner since slavery was OUTLAWED, including Trump & his minions.
But Netanyahu got away with war crimes in Gaza and Putin has committed war crimes in Ukraine.
It just means Republicans don't give a damn about facts. Imagine if the impeachment had succeeded earlier...
Nixon had at least half a brain AND some Republicans who cared more about the Constitution than keeping Nixon president laid down the law to him. No current Republicans have the balls or ovaries to do that & Trump doesn't listen to Democrats.
These MAGAts are utterly sick. We do have freedom of speech & religion in this country. Talarico terrifies them. Heβs an honest man who understands the Constitution & refuses to use his religion as if he lived during the time of the Spanish Inquisition.
Republicans are sick. Hope they all wind up in a five hour line at the airport.
Clearly some people have been
Can't say that's a surprise. Republicans hate to see the government helping people, particularly women and children.
No surprise. Republicans ALWAYS lie.
Paul Krugman came right out and said it: βPeople close to Trump are trading based on national secrets.β Another word for that, he said, is βtreason.β

They may just be guarding doors
In theory, the ICE agents are going to relieve TSA agents of door-guarding duties...
The training for TSA people is quite different from the utter lack of training for ICE agents. This is a horrible idea, even for the Trump Regime.
Oh and Republicans in Congress?
Blocking FEMA funding.
Anyone who voted for WBush and/or Trump has only themselves to blame for the GOP collapse into the gutter.
If only that was true! It would be great to teleport the whole Trump regime to a small island in the middle of Lake Superior...
Sounds like that would completely disregard existing laws like the HIPAA Act.
Christian Nationalists are in the same boat.
I started drinking tea more regularly nearly two months ago. Have some green tea with breakfast. Have mint and/or ginger tea later in the day. Still drinking some Diet Pepsi but definitely less than in the past.
