It was the Republicans who promised to release all the Epstein files.
Instead, the GOP fled DC & Bondi sent Ghislaine Maxwell to a country club prison.
Now Megyn Kelly is saying 15-year-olds aren't children?
Disband the cult!
STOP COVERING FOR PEDOPHILES!!!

He is 100% correct! Except, there may not be “substantial” damage to the Dem brand, but irreparable damage. It took a lot to get people feeling hopeful again, after 2024. But the No Kings and Hands Off protests energized millions. The shutdown has brought center Rs and independents to the fight too
Chris Murphy: "There will be pretty substantial damage to a Dem brand that has been rehabilitated if on the heels of an election in which the people told us to keep fighting, we immediately stop... if we surrender without having gotten anything, I worry it'll be hard to get them back up off the mat"
