You can't expect me, with all your talk about superb owls, not to remind you of Louis Wain's 1904 "The Cat's Nightmare" (hint, that nightmare is owls).

And Johnson actually put a son of KGB agent into the Lords. Where were the outraged media then?
Epstein was in and out of Russia every few months according to his travel documents, but Mandelson was partying in nightclubs in St Petersburg and regularly in Moscow.

How did our intelligence services fail to pick this up? Or were their reports and investigations suppressed?

@motherjones.com had this one last week before it was top of the page @nytimes.com Those of us working on projects for the 250th anniversary of the Declaration have anticipated such a giant whitewash laden with grift. Everyone should read real history right now and support real historians.
1/ @motherjones.com reported extensively on this group, Freedom 250—and the larger effort to whitewash our history and get corporations to fund that destruction—in our cover story that went up last week: www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

this guy. what an equivocating shit. RFK Jnr catastrophic rule is on him.
Cassidy uses the same line — as he sometimes notes, it’s from Kierkegaard — to dodge questions about his most courageous vote (to convict Trump) and his most craven (to confirm RFK Jr).
RAJU: Do you regret your vote to convict Trump?

CASSIDY: My point is ascribing motivations to others I don't think is fair

RAJU: But I'm asking about your vote. Do you regret it?

CASSIDY: All I can say brother is you live your life forward

Republicans want to increase the defense budget to $1.5 trillion in 2027. That defense budget alone would add an additional $5.8 trillion to the national debt over the next decade.

It’s insane that the Trump admin wants to double the already massive US military budget in just 2 years when we are not at war. Trump’s DOD budgets are a cesspool of corruption and grift for the military industrial complex, scammers and grifters, including Donald Trump, Jr.
