MAJOR NEWS: Federal judges, including a Trump appointee, just BLOCKED Texas Republicans from using their new gerrymandered congressional map in 2026, ruling it was likely an illegal racial gerrymander. TX must revert to its 2021 map as Trump’s redistricting power grab collapses.

Epstein Files Release Bill has passed the House with only Clay Higgins of Louisiana voting "no". The Bill will now go to the Senate for a vote. If the Senate makes any Amendments to the Bill it will go back to the House to revote on the amended Bill. Hope for no amendments.

This is how the depraved, unprincipled Trump excuses the murder of Jamal Khashoggi : blame the victim.
“A lot of people didn’t like that gentleman that you’re talking about, whether you like him or didn’t like him, things happen,” he says sitting with the culpable MBS.
Sickening and infuriating.

American workers on minimum wage ($7.25/hr) must work
90 HOURS A WEEK to escape poverty (per what US Govt says is poverty level)..that is why most people on SNAP qualify assistance, and bear in mind that is just 1 person. If that person has a child or children the poverty level is even deeper.

Lindsey Halligan is incompetent and her cases may be tossed. She told the grand jury that James Comey had no Fifth Amendment right to avoid testifying at his own trial and they didn’t need to rely solely on the record because the government had more evidence.
