Still wild to me that Megyn Kelly woke up yesterday, logged on, and did the "technically he's not a pedophile, he's an ephebophile" bit to the entire internet.

I can get behind this very simplistic messaging that Rep Dave Min (D-CA) has for Trump’s little Johnson (R-LA).

🎯Feed hungry kids.
🎯Stop protecting pedophiles.
🎯Release the Epstein files.
Seems pretty straightforward to me.

Again it’s not good that the most prominent leaders of the party keep insisting it’s a trap to talk about “identity” when the Trump administration is pushing white supremacy.
Speaking at a Texas Tribune Festival on Friday, former U.S. Secretary of Transportation Pete Buttigieg criticized the Democratic Party for failing to reach everyday Americans, arguing that it “got sucked in” to a conversation about identity. #TribFest25
Pete Buttigieg critiques Democrats for focus on identity
The former U.S. transportation secretary said the Democratic Party should focus more on issues gripping the country, such as health care and housing affordability.

Brett Meiselas: If the Epstein files had all this evidence that showed Trump actually was not involved and it actually incriminated all these Democrats, Trump would be the first to release them.
But there is a reason that they are keeping all of this information hidden from the American public.

If Dems are in “the files,” then they should be prosecuted too. I don’t give a damn how important they are, how much money they have, or what their politics are. If they are in there, PROSECUTE THEM!!
It's not complicated. All we want is equal justice. NO ONE is above the law. ⚖️

America's network of democratic alliances was a jewel. Never before had a great power relied on cultivating voluntary relationships, leading to the richest, most powerful country in history, and benefitting the world relative to the alternative.
Then America decided to throw it away. And for what?
