James Comer is under fire after a memo revealed Republicans are shifting away from traditional hearings on the Epstein Files.
Instead of formal proceedings, the committee is moving to “roundtables”—informal sessions with no authority.
Witnesses are not even required to be under oath.
Dying in office because you insisted on clinging to power until the very end instead of letting a new generation of leaders rise should be seen for the shameful, egomaniacal act that it is.
It makes sense when you remember Trump has his own personal version of math.
Imagine being so stupid that you think the fact that it takes longer to count the votes in places where there are a lot of votes than it does to count the votes in places where there are *not* a lot of votes is somehow a conspiracy.
Trump is big mad Virginia voters didn’t roll for him, so he’s back to his “it was rigged because they kept counting” schtick.
But this line is extremely funny…
“As everyone knows, I am an extraordinarily brilliant person”
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
The Dear Leader has his own version of math because the Dear Leader can never be wrong.
This is pathetic even for North Korea.
I swear to god if we do anything even resembling a bailout for the UAE, one of the richest countries on earth and a major corrupt crypto donor to Donald Trump and the key backer of Sudan genocide

I was scrolling through my photos and found this soccer goal urinal game(?) I somehow forgot about.
It was in the urinals in the Mexico City airport.
I assume it was either for the upcoming World Cup or to give the guys who inexplicably miss the urinal something to aim for or maybe both.
Trump leaning on the Bible without ever taking a look at it because it’s nothing more than a prop is such a great snapshot of this entire performative sham.
The Art of The No Deal
After seeing the aftermath of Abdul El-Sayed asking Olivia Reingold what she meant by a Jewish state, I became convinced it's a question that should be asked more often. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/0...
This cult-like behavior among people being considered for important positions should be disqualifying. Mullin got confirmed in spite of giving a similar non answer.
Very interesting piece.
“An ‘edifice complex’ emerges when individuals in positions of authority, uncertain of their place in history, attempt to pre-empt posterity’s judgment with grandiose construction projects. It reflects insecurity and egomania in equal measure.”

The road to winning back the Biden skippers
And more importantly, I think, how to win them back:
"Biden skippers" slide deck
"Biden skippers" slide deck
"Biden skippers" slide deck
Why they didn't vote:
The conservative intelligentsia is just wildly, cartoonistly racist, and the fact that this gets less elite pushback from the prestige media/commentariat than "woke" does is such a damning indictment of our whole society.
Men are our protectors, they said.
BREAKING: The so called 'SAVE' Act has FAILED in the Senate and will not become law.
I wrote this piece on how in reality, this is the Voter Restriction Act to prevent women from voting. It is fascism and would have installed Trump as a permanent dictator. www.qasimrashid.com/p/the-save-a...
Glad to see Trump finally treating his serious mental illness.
Say what you will about the worst members of the Roberts Court, but they all make sure their wives are in on the grift.
Jane Roberts, Martha Alito and Ginni Thomas are equal partners with their husbands in the grand project of destroying the United States and enriching themselves in the process.
Comparing the situation to the “Suez moment” in the 1950s – when Britain lost control of the Suez Canal along with its global superpower status – Citic Securities analysts wrote on Saturday that a similarly consequential “Hormuz moment” could be a watershed for America’s global supremacy.
Tim Cook donated $1M to Trump’s inauguration.
He fawned over Trump and gifted him a 24-karat gold plaque (as Apple lobbied for tariff exemptions).
Apple donated to Trump’s White House ballroom.
And it removed ICE tracking apps from its stores following a demand from the DOJ.
Remember this.

Trump has sued the government—the government that he is currently in charge of—for $10B and his lawyers are working to settle the suit.
That $10B would be taxpayer money if paid out.
Brazen corruption.
With the help of the Sandy Hook families, The Onion has reached a long-awaited deal to take over InfoWars.
We've enlisted the help of @timheidecker.bsky.social, who will be InfoWars' Creative Director.
Please stand by for more.
As Trump's war on Iran continues, reminder that his own son-in-law Jared Kushner — who is leading negotiations with Iran — stands to profit from lucrative contracts with its regional rivals.
War gives dictators like Trump (and his family) more power and more wealth.
Jesus said hypocrites turn religion into a performative public spectacle and Trumpvangelicals are hellbent on proving him right.
Every verse they read during their week long white washed rager just reinforces their hypocrisy by reminding the world how utterly opposed they are to the way of Jesus.
Props to the WSJ, they managed to pack almost every Trump decision-making pathology into a single story. It’s all here:
1) Short attention span
2) Impulsive behavior
3) Knowledge deficits
4) Gambling for resurrection
5) Belief in the madman theory

Except they still depict him as a functional actor here.
If this were anyone else it'd be a 🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨 story about how the President can't or won't focus on the war he started, which narrative might force the GOP to do something about it.
I once challenged someone online to give me one example of an elected Democrat using the phrase "birth-givers" in place of "women" and they unearthed a single transcript of a three hour long hearing from the Congressional Black Caucus in which it appeared once.
