JUST IN: DOJ says it has finished reviewing *less than 1%* of the Epstein Files for potential release.
Only 12,285 documents have been released while more than 2 million remain under review.

Help PBS & NPR by becoming a sustaining member & donating each month. It's easy to do & you don't have to give $100k to help. Even those small $10, $15 or $20 donations each month help both organizations combat the lies from tRump's propaganda networks (Fox, CBS, Newsmax etc).

Right.
If you want a good explanation of why the American system of government worked well enough for 200 years and then suddenly stopped, it's because Republicans in Congress suddenly started letting their partisan interests COMPLETELY override their institutional interests

a lot of problems wouldn't exist if we had a congress with even an ounce of self interest
Honestly insane they didn't brief the gang of eight until it was underway

And seemingly, nobody cares. The half wit electorate stares into their phones, the American press corps, who has the attention span of a lobotomized gnat, is being wagged like a Chihuahua with mange, and Congress genuflects before the rapist conman, who for some sick reason is in the Epstein files.

The Epstein Files Transparency Act is a law, passed by Congress on November 19 with an overwhelming vote. Complying with it was not optional. The Department of Justice did not comply.
I want to make sure this is very clear.

No more strongly worded letters. It’s time to draft articles of impeachment.

There are some amazing Democratic fighters in Congress. I bet we can all name the same 25 to 30 who daily fight the good fight. The BIG PROBLEM is that there are more than 250 Democrats in Congress.

Racism and sexism are when the black lady tells you exactly what the white guy psycho is going to do and the white guy psycho ALSO tells you exactly what he is going to do and you decide the woman is lying and the man is just joking.

Every American should be ashamed of who we are and what we have become as a nation today. We have a long history of military misadventures and even crimes but the attacks we have been conducting on Venezuela are among the most wanton, egregious and least defensible acts we’ve ever conducted.

At this point, if a Democratic presidential candidate wants my vote, their platform has to - at bare minimum - include some version of "I am going to put all these freaks in prison for their crimes." Full stop. No compromise. I am now a single issue voter for the dark woke prison camps.
