Trumpworld is fully circling the wagons with this announcement about supporting the Epstein files vote.

This.

And keep in mind he can veto the bill if it passes the House and Senate. Only with a 2/3 veto proof majority would it actually become law in that case.
To be clear: Trump is only calling for the GOP to release the Epstein files because he was told he’s about to lose 150+ republicans on this vote.

I'll be doing an (atypically-timed!) Rachel Maddow Show tonight -- Friday night -- at 8PM Eastern on MSNBC.

Then right after, at 9PM, it's the premier of our new documentary: "Andrew Young: The Dirty Work"...

That gagging stench is the latest ruling from the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals, where three judges (two of them Trump judges) just cleared the way for Trump to deploy federalized National Guard units into Portland (and, one assumes, anywhere else). Motherfuckers. www.npr.org/2025/10/20/n...

The fact there’s a man in our White House who constantly expresses his hatred for half of the country and makes clear his desire to strip away programs supported by Democrats should tell millions & millions why they need to be a part of the No Kings protest if they still believe in America.
