I won’t condemn Republicans who decide to turn away from Trump going forward, but let us be clear: Theirs would be no *ethical* repentance. Those with ethics would have turned long ago. Anyone now deciding to pull their toes out of the MAGA pool are doing so ONLY for self-preservation.

Folks look at you like you're crazy when you say we're in the midst of the worst, most unprecedented Article I constitutional crisis in 🇺🇸 history, & then it's Monday.
The Founders simply could not imagine men, even of the same party, so careless about their own power & oaths to allow all of this.

It's staggering how this political eunuch has not just done nothing at all as Speaker of the House, but has actually worked to prevent his colleagues from doing anything at all as well.
For all the right's fetishization of "originalism," this is a development that would've made the founders weep

Speaker Mike Johnson said Monday he is moving forward with a plan to revive a prohibition on House votes to overturn President Donald Trump’s global tariffs.

GOP Sen Lummis says she’s changed her mind after the new Epstein revelations today: “Initially my reaction to all this was, I don’t care. I don’t see what the big deal is. But now I see what the big deal is. The members of Congress who were pushing this were not wrong!”

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.

Republican politicians love trotting out and pretending to support veterans and the 2nd amendment. But the truth is most of them will sell both out at the drop of a hat.

LISTEN: There are a lot of folks out here working tirelessly to get the truth out there. Replying to us that nothing matters because there'll be no consequences is not only incorrect, but it belittles the work we do. It's insulting and shortsighted. Stop following us if you don't want the info.

Wow, someone really did not think this through.
"I can 'exonerate' you for a price"—made as a public offer—is essentially an acknowledgment that the person being offered the bribe is in fact...
...a criminal who did exactly what they have been accused of.

Around the world, politicians and businessmen are resigning from their positions because of the Epstein Files.
Except in the United States.
Here: Zero shame, zero consequences.
We need resignations, investigations, impeachments, and punishments now. Should have been years ago.

Now we learned that they were in business together.
He has no business being our Commerce Secretary.
He should resign.

So she won’t talk, hmmm …. Wonder if there is any other possible way to get to the bottom of this trafficking and money laundering ring….*scratching my head*…maybe if there were written files hanging around somewhere which we could all look at which could present the objective facts???

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."

U.K. might lose a prime minister because a guy who worked for him knew another guy who hung out with Epstein. Meanwhile the U.S. opposition party is telling our President, who was Epstein's best friend, that his secret police should get better training so their public street murders look less messy.
