@schumer.senate.gov has no plan, he's just not willing to give up his ride on the gravy train.
Remember that the only 3 things politicians care about is making money, staying elected, and screwing over the other party. Worry about constituents only occurs if it benefits one of the first 3.

Surprising precisely no one:
An important side note about today's Epstein/Trump revelations.

They show that Todd Blanche's questioning of Maxwell was either (a) completely incompetent; or (b) intentionally crafted not to elicit facts incriminating Trump.

Either way, he is not fit to serve as Deputy Attorney General.

On this Epstein stuff, just a reminder that multiple contestants in the Miss Teen USA pageant - to repeat, TEENAGERS - said that when Trump owned it, he would walk into the dressing room so he could watch them changing clothes

Imagine a scenario where the de facto thought leader in the Republican party and a current senator, the Republican Senate leader, and the Republican House leader all marched into the Oval office and told the President to resign or be impeached. That happened in 1974 because those men had integrity.

Ghislaine Maxwell lied about Trump never going to Epstein's house (directly contradicted by her email correspondence with Epstein), and she was rewarded for that lie with a transfer to a cushier prison. The coverup is happening in plain sight.

The first and last lines of Joni Ernst’s legacy as a human on earth will be that she was instrumental in the confirmation of the Sec of Defense most hostile to women serving in military, and she knew that when she voted for him.

This is an incredible shift in policy as Japan more closely aligns itself with EU on the Global Stage.
🇯🇵🇹🇼The Japanese government has stated that in the event of the use of force against Taiwan, such as a naval blockade, Japan may recognize it as a “threat to existence” and, accordingly, “exercise collective self-defense.”

Never forget that the only country in NATO history which triggered NATO article 5 is USA after a bunch of Arab terrorists took down some buildings in New York.

Now when Europe is in existential threat by former Soviets, the USA is throwing us bones and expecting gratitude.

EU need to step up.

Totally surreal Mad Max shit. This is Russian forces entering Pokrovsk on the E50 highway under cover of fog. 🎥 Video from Telegram.

How are they able to do this? In large part because of their manpower advantage. Read @fabricedeprez.bsky.social’s story about that here: www.ft.com/content/ebdf...

Yesterday, when Bovino announced ICE would be returning to Little Village today, some of us donated and fundraised to buy out street vendors in the neighborhood. This morning, volunteers hit the streets at 6:30 am, looking for vendors to buy out. Tamales make an excellent breakfast.

Did you know Plan C has a page specifically for military addresses? Accessing care on bases can be hard, but we research and publish services confirmed to be in vicinity.

To serve is brave, and so is seeking care. Today, share some love and this info with those who serve or have served.

OTD in 2022, 1000s of Russian speaking Ukrainians, who had been bombed for 10 years by Kiev, reacted with pure terror as Ukraine's "failed Kherson counter offensive" liberated the city.

The Supreme Court not taking Kim Davis’ crackpot appeal doesn’t “indicate” a lack of appetite to overturn Obergefell—just that this was a ridiculous legal argument. Pathetic framing here by the Washington Post. There is absolutely a ticking clock on marriage equality. DO NOT CONGRATULATE
