Did the Clintons Turn the Tables in the Game of Epstein Chicken?
By agreeing to testify, Bill and Hillary Clinton may have gained escalation dominance in a way that Comer wasn’t anticipating

Great article. The process looks involved, but with a little practice, I'm sure it becomes second nature—and it matters so it’s worth doing right.

Rep. Stansbury on the Epstein files:
"Congress is controlled by Donald Trump's allies. He is being actively shielded by members of his own party. We need to hold these people accountable. And my message to Donald Trump is we're coming for you.
We are not moving on."

If all these rich men "regret" their time with Epstein then why didn't they announce prior to the release of the files that their names would be part of the collection? Why didn't they self-report? The answer is they are not sorry and have no regret. They are sorry and regret they got caught.

Why are we pretending any of this is normal???!
Crockett: "The US is falling apart, partially bc he's allowing for killings in the street, but also bc we have a 34 count convicted felon being shielded from any type of accountability as it relates to a child sex trafficking ring. I don't understand why we're pretending any of this is normal."

Congress needs to bring Todd Blanche under oath immediately to answer what he promised Ghislaine Maxwell to plead the Fifth, and why she is still in a minimum-security prison when she is a registered sex offender.

Trump might be president, but the time for mincing words and normalizing his ethnic cleansing campaign (disguised as “immigration policy”) has long passed. All decent citizens should ostracize him when he prioritizes frivolous social functions at Mar-A-Lago

Trump Rages at Bad Bunny—and Accidentally Exposes a Big MAGA Weakness
MAGA’s hatred of the Super Bowl halftime performer reflects a hubris about what parts of the culture are “theirs.” But those assumptions are proving more wrong every day.

Trump says HIS Super Bowl was ruined.
"This truth-telling opposition needs to be active on all fronts—on social media, among friends and family, in street protests. And the louder that gets this year, the more Trump’s decline will accelerate as he struggles with his eventual fate of overwhelming loss."
“First, let me say: Bravo, Caitlin Collins. She demonstrated her skill here and her refusal to take it from the Abuser-in-Chief. She also understood the urgency of continued Epstein-related questioning.”
