If I were a woman in Trump’s America, I’d want to keep my options open, too.

Doesn’t take a genius.

Senator Lee,
Willing to let Utah know if you will be voting to release the Epstein files?

Bet Senator Lee can’t define Socialism.

I’m not endorsing it, but still don’t think Lee could define if put on the spot.

Still better than what you came up with!

Who didn’t sent troops when the Capitol was attacked?

Who did send troops to Portland when there was no need? (People in frog costume mocking men in uniforms?)

Please, Senator Lee, stop the grandstanding.

Wait, wait, wait…

Olivia Nuzzi, who had FaceTime sex with RFK Jr. during the 2024 presidential campaign, ALSO slept with former South Carolina Gov. Mark Sanford during the 2020 campaign?

And she kept her job as a political reporter after that?

Now she has a book deal?

JFC!!

And those congressional districts are supposed to follow the laws and constitution of Utah.

In this case, the legislature ignored the law and will of the people. If they had done what was right instead of what they wanted-the maps would be different.

40% of the state will now have 25% representation in the House of Representatives.

Less, if you count the senators- 16.667%.

Won’t be happy until it is zero representation. Remember that when you are once again in the minority party-or out of office.

The Utah legislature’s supermajority appointed this very judge to the bench; along with the appeals and Utah Supreme Court. “Partisan” would mean she would lean toward the GOP supermajority.

Instead,in the face of death threats, just called balls& strikes.

Mike-you are destabilizing. Take the L.

Linguistics will puzzle over what he’s trying to say for years.
Trump: "How about the places that think they're gonna save a fortune so they spend a lot of money where the water turns off. You press the thing, which you hate to do. So you get the towel & you press it. You wash it & the water stops. You get like 4 drops of water. Do we really get rich with that?"

The tariffs aren't causing the prices to go up but if we remove the tariffs, prices will come down.

Oh.

Trump admits he doesn't understand the stuff he's reading in his speech: "I asked one of my guys because when I was coming over I saw that in the speech. I said, 'What does that mean?'"

Mormons were discouraged from dating before 16 at one time. Some weren’t mature enough for an evening of movies and burgers at 15.

Hearing some in their preferred political party most embrace justifying sex for 15 year old girls has got to give them just a moment’s pause or reflection,right?
Right?

Imagine what the world would look like without the Marshall Plan in Place? If 18th century France had decreed no aid to the British colonies? Or not allowed Einstein into our borders?

If the future Lee sees in his Dem countrymen were to happen, fleeing he’d find no mercy in any other country.

Lecturing the Pope AND endorses the wealthiest nation on earth provide $0 aid to those in the most desperate circumstances.

Seems Senator Lee is preparing to reprise his role of Grinch or Scrooge, or both, but without the redemption at the end of the tale. Hoarding wealth is now charitable?

To better understand why we are closing in on a potential war in the Caribbean, this comedy explains it in many ways, IMO.

Sen Johnson is correct, the courts job is to interpret and enforce the laws. If a Governor breaks the rules the courts rectify the problem.

Same with the legislature. The Legislature tried to thwart citizens will. She did Not make laws herself.

Courts do this very day.

John D. Johnson: When judges draw the maps, Utah loses more than district lines — The Salt Lake Tribune
Redistricting fights are nothing new in Utah. But what happened last week wasn’t a fight over four congressional lines — it was a rupture in the separation of powers that holds our system together.

This is how I see a glaring loophole in the constitution. Any corrupt president could just keep pardoning those who commit crimes in his name. There has got to be a reform of some kind. I think this is one issue that could garner bipartisan support.

Epstein and affordability are the greatest threats to Mr Trump now. Only affordability took down the Biden Harris administration; despite millions of more Jobs than Trump administration did. They lost with only one of the two.

Trump has both; and defections from MAGA. All bets are off.

One of his loudest and obnoxious supporters. A very typical MAGA. This trend could lead to the end of the GOP as we know it. I’m afraid we still have to see more severe pain first.
Trump pulls his endorsement of Marge Greene, says he is done with her for good, says she’s “a raving lunatic”, and he’s going to endorse someone to run against her. The Epstein Meltdown continues.

I know the plan for the day over at the White House was to change the subject off Epstein onto other things but I’m not sure anyone told Trump about the plan.
