AOC: "It is unconscionable that what we are debating right now is legislation that will give 8 senators over $1 million a piece & we're robbing people of their food assistance & healthcare to pay for it. How can we vote to enrich ourselves by stealing from the American people?"

Thomas Massie to CNN on the Epstein files: "This vote is gonna be on your record for longer than Trump is gonna be president. And what are you gonna do in 2028 and 2030 when you're in a debate … and they say, 'How can we trust you? You covered up for a pedophile back in 2025.'"

Mornings are strange these days.
The sedative haze of sleep slowly begins to lift, and my conscious mind starts taking inventory and assembling the data and reporting back its initial findings:
I’m in bed… I’m awake… I’m alive… It’s Thursday…

Trump’s power largely depends on the appearance that he is powerful. That image excites his loyalist claque, keeps others in line, while spreading fear amongst his opponents.
But are we seeing signs Trump’s assault on democratic norms is glitching? open.substack.com/pub/charlies...

So after days of Republicans blaming and vilifying Democrats and trans people for Kirk’s murder despite having no clue who the person was, we find out it’s a white guy from a Republican family in Utah who loved guns.

Was Jake Tapper, part of the cover-up of Trump's declining health? When asked about Trump's health, Tapper only acknowledged Trump's obnoxious behavior, but, nothing about his inability to remember his own prior statements, or, even the basics of tariffs, interest rates, immigrants, the economy.
