The notion abusers need to resort to conspiracies and subterfuge is more comforting than the truth that many people will readily look the other way when confronted with sexual violence if doing otherwise would even slightly inconvenience them
Pizzagate: If you replace the word “hot dog” with “little boy” and “pizza party” with “child sex orgy,” you will see the lengths these elites go to cover up their crimes.

Real elite emails: Send me nude pictures of those 8th graders we abused last weekend post-haste! I am the Ambassador to Turkey.

So uh... how many high profile journalists were buddies with Epstein? I'm concerned that the number seems larger than 0.

Mr. President, they’re calling you Adobe Acrobat the way pdf files are comfortable opening up to you. No I don’t know what that means either

Epstein: I’m best friends with this pedo running for President, here’s a bunch of stories about how big a pedo he is

NYT: but her emails
Landon Thomas Jr of the New York Times got told by Jeffrey Epstein that Trump walked into a glass door bc he was so busy staring at girls in Epstein's house and didn't print it. wild that the Times didn't consider that newsworthy.

Every single Congressional Democrat should be calling for his resignation. I’m not saying he’ll do it. I’m just saying they should be saying it.

As this vote moves to the House, I stand with Democratic leadership as they refuse to rubber stamp the full-scale Republican assault on Americans’ health care and I am proud of the majority of Senate Democrats who opposed this vote.

The average SNAP benefit per month is $177 a person.

The average ACA benefit per month is up to $550 a person.

People want us to hold the line for a reason. This is not a matter of appealing to a base. It’s about people’s lives.

And working people want leaders whose word means something to them.

Do any of them know the difference between an FSA and an HSA
"A development that appeared to break the logjam: Republicans proposed that healthcare funding be provided directly to households rather than used to pay for a 1-year extension of ACA subsidies. That involves sending federal money into FSAs instead of insurance companies" www.wsj.com/politics/pol...
Republicans Pitch Alternative to ACA Extension to End Government Shutdown
A proposal by GOP senators to send money directly to consumers’ health accounts rather than to insurance companies showed signs of breaking a stalemate on negotiations.

There’s no one I trust less than Donald Trump and Mike Johnson.

Any deal that relies on Republicans to keep their word is a bad one.

Democrats can’t give up on affordable health care for an empty promise. Minnesotans can’t afford for Democrats to cave.

Huge congrats to Dr. Alicia Johnson and Peter Hubbard on being elected as Georgia’s next Public Service Commissioners. As Trump raises utility costs, this is a huge deal. They are the FIRST non-federal statewide Democrats to win in Georgia in nearly 20 years.
Democrats have flipped two Georgia Public Service Commission seats from red to blue in the first win for GA Democrats at the nonfederal statewide level since 2006.

The Georgia Public Service Commission plays an instrumental role in determining energy policy for the state.

This is getting attention, but Hegseth posted this back in September, ahead of Charlie Kirk’s memorial service (the footage at the beginning is of him praying for Charlie Kirk).

i grew up poor, but not have nothing poor. and i had a life changing moment when i was shopping with a woman one day and her kid looked at her and said “momma we won’t have to share a spoon anymore”

just because you’ve always had something doesn’t mean everyone does.
