Q: Why/how has Bannon avoided blowback for his chummy ties with Epstein?
Is it that so many journalists, across the political spectrum, value him as a source?
Someone please enlighten me!

The Obamas are brilliant, compassionate and patriotic Americans. They represent the best of this country.
Donald Trump is a vile, unhinged and malignant bottom feeder.
Why are GOP leaders like John Thune continuing to stand by him?
Republicans must immediately denounce Trump’s disgusting bigotry.

The press needs to ask every single Republican if they denounce Trump’s posts depicting the Obamas as monkeys.
Don’t let them say they “didn’t see it” either.

This is a great idea and we should expand it to cover *all* of the justices of the Supreme Court, and then we could see who did unethical stuff like "attended the Grammys" or "bankrolled by a billionaire white supremacist donor who collects Nazi memorabilia" or "married to a January 6th plotter" or

I am not going to repost the vile and racist image that Trump posted last night of President & First Lady Obama because it is beyond disgusting. Trump is a vile racist as is every Republican that continues to support him. I don’t want to hear mumbling from Mike Johnson or stoic silence from Thune.

I hope Dems begin to see that moderate or progressive, AIPAC is not our friend.
They endorse January 6th insurrectionists. Yet if you so much as suggest the US uphold its own Leahy laws, no matter your record, they will work against you.
