We know that the Epstein files won't be released (Trump will veto if it gets that far). We probably need to keep pushing how much $$ is being syphoned to the GOP regime. Can't convince R voters (73% of whom still support that f'r, apparently). But prior non-voters & Independents? Yep!

The quality of products is just SO bad now. Got some new winter throws for the couch (been using a twin blanket that falling apart now). Can't find anything even close to thickness/quality I had & of course they don't sell it anymore. New Eddie Bauer "blanket" is so thin it may as well be a sheet

Man, I feel bad that the first thought that crossed my mind about Fetterman's fall is that I hope he's unwell enough that he needs to be removed & they need to hold a special election.
My humanity seems to be slipping. Need to work on that.

So what "this person" is saying is that being attracted to a 15 yr old girl when you're in your 40's is ok. I'll bet if I go back & look at the laws I'll find that the GOP is behind laws making raping a 15 yr old girl legal. Let's get graphic & picture 40 yr old man pumping away on a 15 yr old GIRL

You will be ***90 years old*** before you pay off that mortgage. Of course you'll be dead long before since you have that mortgage, insurance & taxes (~$2,810/month median nationwide currently) so you have to keep working since social security for 2 barely covers THAT

Doubt that most people STILL voting GOP have any idea what an amortization table is, let alone how long it would take to get enough equity to refinance out of these obnoxiously high interest rates. Assuming we ever get below 6% anyway. You can't retire on Social Security w/JUST a mortgage as it is
Kevin Hassett: "The 50 year mortgage is just one of many many policies that are currently being studied ... the argument for it is that it would really lower the monthly payment. The downside is it would take longer to build equity in the home."

As someone who doesn't drive much & is low tech, the transition to an #EV has been quite a learning curve! So far, so good. Ordered new tires that'll balance range w/safety (better traction for our MN winters). Didn't think about the reason EVs need special tires-veh weight is ↗️ due 2 battery weight

This is absolutely insane. 66° predicted as a high one hour south of the Twin Cities metro on *November 14th*. Sixty-six degrees!

The very best you can say is that Trump actively and intentionally ensured pedophiles escaped justice. The worst...I think we all know that one.
It looks like the Senate is unlikely to allow release of the (already culled?) documents. All that says to me is that they're in the files, too

Also, screw you, Dem House Oversight members, for manipulating us. You had the ability to release this earlier, but chose to do so now to CYA the Dem Senate capitulation. I'm angry. I'm tired of being manipulated. I will do my best to vote in Dems who represent the people, not their self interests

How many GOP Congress members refusing to sign the discharge petition will we find in the documents & emails?
How many "God-fearing" Christians will suddenly decide that raping a pre-teen child is ok because "something, something the bible"?
Excusing pedophilia, coming soon to GOP voter near you😡

Next up: Trump argues he can't be arrested for being a (alleged, um, yeah) pedophile. Since the emails & documents were before he took office, I suppose he'll have to argue that although he's still an (alleged) pedophile, he can't be brought up on Fed charges because anything he does is immune

Don't know about anyone else, but the fact that none of this stuff about Trump/Epstein was leaked worries me about the dirt he/his regime (notice it was referred to as Trump's regime in the emails) has on...everyone?? And how many high level men (and women) enjoy sexual relations with little girls?

Argh-I can't read these. Too small and on a white background that obscures the text for me. I'll have to wait for a version with alt text or view on my cell where I can enlarge enough. Good reason for alt text!
Newly released emails show Jeffrey Epstein writing that Donald Trump had “spent hours at my house” with one of Epstein’s victims, among other messages suggesting that the convicted sex offender believed Trump knew far more about his abuse than he has publicly acknowledged.

We need source docs, of course. But as someone who dealt w/groping from my paternal grandfather & 1 incident that was worse (which stays w/you for life), I feel so much empathy for the victims. Victimized over & over as children and now as adults seeing no justice. Trump s/b rotting in jail for life
Chuck Schumer and Jeffries need to resign or be voted out. They held onto this information and only released it now to save face after the backlash from them caving.

Little black cat is figuring out I put out canned food every day. He's even started to understand that Nanny & I are behind glass & can't just jump on him when he eats, so he's starting to ignore us when he eats. It's a good feeling.
MK is doing good-he shows when he wants to. Always plenty of food

Newton doesn't generally purr a lot, altho he's a happy cat. But every morning Newton wants attention & to play a little bit. He purrs like crazy & wriggles & kneads the blanket. It's not a food thing & it's just the best thing to wake up to every day. Animals & animal family members are the best♥️

EV thoughts. After a driving lifetime constantly thinking about freeway routes because gas cars get such bad mileage in stop & go traffic and on short trips is making my brain moosh. But I *have* started mapping out drives that avoid highways & often it's not that much longer/further

One thing that is infuriating is how career Dem politicians didn’t recognize that they were sitting next to monsters day in & day out. The career Dems had decades to recognize it. It was their JOBS to protect democracy & they either failed miserably or must be complicit. I wish we’d known

The limitations on write offs for the working class have pissed me off for years. Tax code generally seems to permit write offs only for those who don't need the write offs.
I'm also curious if this phantom $2K is for a family of 4? Not everyone would get even that much, if so

By sending us $2,000 to give to billionaire insurance CEOs, and by tripling the interest we pay to mortgage companies while he continues to limit what we can write off, he's effectively looting the treasury and using us a mules to launder the stolen money; funneling it to the wealthy.
QUINTANILLA: What's more likely -- a $2,000 tariff rebate check or a 50 year mortgage?
HASSETT: They're both really good ideas
