Ted Lieu: “Donald Trump is in the Epstein files thousands and thousands of times. In those files, there are highly disturbing allegations of Donald Trump raping children … of Donald Trump threatening to kill children. So I encourage the press to go look at these allegations.”

This serial killing spree has been completely normalized.

I consider this in many ways the single worst thing going on because it’s getting zero resistance from the media, Congress, everywhere.

Everyone has seemingly accepted he can commit mass murder on boats for… fun, basically.

No, Donald Trump cannot implement voting changes via Executive Order. He may try but if he does, he we will sue and we will win.
BARTIROMO: Could the president just implement an executive order to get the SAVE Act across the finish line going into the midterms?

REP. MARK HARRIS: That's a great question. I don't know the answer to that, quite frankly.

Which is 6X more than the cancer, Alzheimer, diabetes, and heart disease cures they've cut to pay for it.

Stephen Colbert responds to CBS disputing his claims that he was barred from airing the James Talarico interview:

"And for the lawyers to release this without even talking to me is really surprising. I don’t even know what to do with this crap. Hold on."

He then picks it up with a dog poop bag.

LEFT: Someone who appears in the Epstein files over a million times. Epstein called him his "best friend."

RIGHT: Someone never mentioned in the Epstein files—even once. And she never met him.

So guess which one is being hauled before our corrupt, cover-upping Congress to testify about Epstein.
