Rape is the distillation of the far-right worldview that Trump embodies: a gleefully sadistic act of domination carried out as fulfillment of a supposedly natural hierarchy. It would be weird if Trump wasn’t a rapist, given his ideological commitments—which is before you get to all the accusations.
i mean c’mon. the president’s best friend was the most notorious pedo in the country’s history who ran a massive child trafficking ring. every bit of circumstantial evidence we have says that trump was a participant. if this were a criminal trial we’d have enough evidence to compel a plea deal.

Trump is talking about repealing the ACA, stealing insurance from tens of millions, bringing back pre-existing conditions, and killing the filibuster to do it (since there better not be a single Dem vote for this misery). And the press needs to explain that because the plan is to elide all that.
Obamacare could collapse under Trump’s new plan, policy experts say
Republicans say giving health care subsidies as cash to consumers would give Americans more control over their coverage. Critics say it could severely undermine the ACA marketplaces.

Ghislaine Maxwell, the person Trump gave a cushy prison transfer to in order to buy her silence and is considering a commutation in order to keep it bought? That Ghislaine?
In a separate email with author Michael Wolff in 2019, Epstein stated explicitly that Donald Trump, "knew about the girls as he asked ghislaine to stop."
BREAKING:
House Democrats just released emails in which Jeffrey Epstein wrote that Trump had "spent hours at my house" with one of Epstein's victims — among other messages that suggested Epstein believed Trump knew more about his abuse than he has acknowledged. tinyurl.com/5yj3dfpx

Kind of wild that while food assistance was withheld from millions of families, one Trump-supporting billionaire (Ellison) saw his net worth grow more this year than the entire SNAP budget. And the YTD gains of the other four richest men would’ve fully covered salaries for all 2M federal employees.

Great thread by one of the smartest Congress-watchers out there ...
Some thoughts on the CR/minibus.
1 The Dems negotiating with Rs were not freelancing. They coordinated with Sen Schumer. A few were ready to give in on day one, others worked to maximize appropriations wins.
Those voting for the 'deal' are the ones furthest away from electoral consequences.
