Ok, everyone, what book is sacred enough to you to get sworn in on?
Strange takes on Mayor Zamdani swearing his oath on the Qu’ran. It has nothing to do with church & state. The point of the oath is for the person swearing in to do so upon some text that is sacred TO THEM. Some Presidents swore in w/o any book. John Quincy Adams was sworn on a law book. His choice.

This right here should have disqualified Trump from ever running for a second term. I don’t understand how this was allowed. The system is completely broken.

They’re actually redacting Trump’s name AFTER the release.
🚨 The DOJ appears to have redacted Donald Trump’s name from the allegations made in this exhibit in the Epstein files.

Trump’s name was in the original release. Now, it’s blacked out.

See for yourself.

Anyone else would have been in prison for this. Impeach, Convict, Imprison!
MORE from Jack Smith:

"Our investigation also developed powerful evidence that showed President Trump willfully retained highly classified documents after he left office in January 2021 ... He then repeatedly tried to obstruct justice to conceal his continued retention of those documents."
BREAKING on MS NOW:

Jack Smith, in his opening statement to House Judiciary, says:

"Our investigation developed proof beyond a reasonable doubt that President Trump engaged in a criminal scheme to overturn the results of the 2020 presidential election and to prevent the lawful transfer of power."

WA: Washington’s flooding has been declared a state of emergency. If your property has been impacted by the atmospheric rivers, there are financial relief options available to you.

How WA property owners can get financial relief after the flood
More than 100,000 Washington residents have been advised to evacuate their homes in the wake of catastrophic flooding across the region. That’s about double the number of Washington homes and business...

This needs to be shouted from the rooftops non-stop from now until the 2026 elections.
Senate Republicans just killed Democrats’ attempt to extend Affordable Care Act subsidies for 3 years.

They don’t want to lower your health care costs. They want you to pay more for worse care so that their billionaire buddies in the health insurance industry can get even richer.

This release begs the question, what will happen to the U.S. Open Cup in 2027? Will MLS stop participating entirely, given the schedule misalignment?!?
#USOC2026: US Soccer announced the format for the 2026 US Open Cup with some major changes due to the 2026 #FIFAWorldCup.

* Seven rounds instead of eight
* 80 teams (down from 96)
* 48 professional teams instead of 64

The Shield-winning Union just lost at home to a team starting a left back and a child in central midfield, and their No. 10 as their No. 9.

The answer re: Philly's game model, once again, is "no."

What a half from Vancouver! So glad they were able to take advantage of their excellent play and convert on a couple of chances. Feeling good about my prediction for Vancouver to win the cup! #MLS

WOW: "Some colder-market owners sought mitigation for expenses and loss of revenue that would come with the calendar flip, including renovations to stadiums and training facilities. Other owners in warmer markets pushed back on those requests, according to sources." www.nytimes.com/athletic/680...
MLS owners vote to flip schedule to European calendar, change format starting in 2027
MLS will soon align with leagues that play from the fall to the spring after a transformational decision made by its owners

Padraig, please throw the bag at Espinoza! Now THAT would be a quality winger, and help with chance creation! www.nytimes.com/athletic/680...

The 30-year-old playmaker will be one of the most sought-after names in MLS free agency this winter
