Prophetic words of the late Senator John McCain about the future of Putin's Russia, which sound especially relevant today:
Nothing provokes Vladimir Putin more than weakness. We must understand that Vladimir Putin's ambitions are the restoration of the former Russian Empire.

Let's be completely honest here.
If Clinton's name appeared in these documents the way Trump's does, Fox News et al would be calling for him to be jailed.
Only because it's Trump are they obfuscating and lying like crazy

🚨BREAKING: Oversight Dems have received new emails from Jeffrey Epstein’s estate that raise serious questions about Donald Trump and his knowledge of Epstein’s horrific crimes.
Read them for yourself. It’s time to end this cover-up and RELEASE THE FILES.

For the first time all year, Democrats were riding high and the regime was on the ropes.
If Senate leadership’s goal was to demobilize and depress rank-and-file Democrats, they could not have played their cards better.

Honestly even before he caved on the shutdown, I have disliked Tim Kaine for his pro forma, lackluster support of Ukraine.
The end result of this ridiculous waste of time is that I feel really good about donating to Ukraine instead of Democrats.

The silver lining to the surrender by 8 Dems is that the House GOP must return to vote on it. Johnson must swear in Grijalva, and the discharge petition on the Epstein files must force a full floor vote. Stay tuned.

The tell, from folks like @markwarner.bsky.social is that the "no" votes are not criticizing the "yes" votes.
"I can't support this bill" but not, "I am deeply disappointed by my colleagues who are caving in"

Assume all the yes and no votes from Dem senators are strategic and not sincere votes. The party caucus made a decision. No way to know how many were in favor. Then the caucus decided who would vote yes and no based on what would protect each of them politically the most. That’s how this works.

SCOTUS will hear arguments in The GEO Group, Inc. v. Menocal shortly.
The official question here is narrow and procedural, but GEO is using it as a vehicle to ask for something much bigger. It effectively wants federal contractors to have the same degree of immunity as the government itself.
