This is not just a current political issue. Charging & punishing these particular perpetrators is vital to keeping the fight against the ongoing abuse & killing of women & children by men in the spotlight. "Me Too" was only a start.

I submit to both Houses of the US Congress a new Bill: Those who dodged the draft must never be allowed to run for, be appointed to, or serve in any capacity in any federal office. Those currently in office must be immediately relieved of duty.

Dream on Pam.
Bondi says she plans to appeal the judge’s decision to toss the charges against Comey and James. “We’ll be taking all available legal action, including an immediate appeal to hold Letitia James and James Comey accountable for their unlawful conduct,” Bondi said.

Always good to check put charities...way too many use up a lot of funds for purposes other than their alleged mission.
I was just thinking about contributing to the "charity" Feeding America. Until I discovered that the salary for its CEO, Claire Babineaux-Fontenot, was approximately $949,866 in 2024, with her total compensation being $1,113,502. Apparently, feeding America isn't her top priority.

Aurora, Colorado, saw a political shift as progressive candidates won city council seats, ousting conservative incumbents who focused on anti-immigrant rhetoric.

The election results reflect a broader national trend of Democratic gains.
Trump said gangs invaded this city. Voters booted the officials who agreed.
Liberals who won in Aurora, Colorado, say voters were focused on affordability, trash and other local issues.

McKenzie Scott is humbly giving away her billion$ to charities. And then there’s Sergey Brin…

His $450 million megayacht is so big that just to keep its air-conditioning, spa, & pools running, it uses enough electricity daily to light up 580 average US homes, even when Brin’s not on board.

No other agency of the U.S. government has saved more lives per dollar than U.S.A.I.D.—it supplied medicine, food, and staffing for some of the most desperate and vulnerable. A new short documentary shows the impact of its dismantling. https://newyorkermag.visitlink.me/2a5Jm5
