You would think that the 8 GOP Senators who are SO OUTRAGED that Jack Smith subpoenaed their phone records that they want $1 million compensation would bring him in to testify IN A PUBLIC HEARING to explain why he did this. But no, they don’t want to do that. I wonder why?

If @SenRonJohnson tries to get that $1 million corrupt payment that was inserted in the Senate proposal to reopen government, he needs to be recalled.
Corruption is making 8 well-connected people eligible for a payday.
Sen. Johnson must say he will refuse any corrupt payment.

The Gallup poll finding that 4 in 10 (!) young women would like to move out of the U.S. is striking. But it's also probably a symptom of a deeper problem: a lack of confidence in the American system and its ability to self-correct. www.pbump.net/o/the-subtex...

I’m amused that many complain about people on SNAP but then ignore the fact that U.S. tax payers built Elon Musk’s wealth by essentially giving $7,500 to everyone who bought a Tesla.
He is literally America’s biggest welfare queen.

best example I've seen so far: Elisa New (Larry Summers's wife) emails Epstein seemingly asking for help in getting an invitation to Serena Williams; he immediately tells her it needs edits, offers a useless suggestion, and in doing so reveals he hasn't actually read it
Something that’s so striking in these emails is how…unimpressive Epstein is. He comes off as a pompous, sub-literate lech. Yes everyone is so mortifyingly solicitous of him! All fawning and flattery! Why?????
