Well, at least he didn't leave any of *his* children on the island overnight, so there's that.
VAN HOLLEN: Did you in fact make the visit to Epstein's private island?

LUTNICK: I did have lunch w/ him as I was on a boat going across on a family vacation. My wife was with me as were my 4 children and nannies. We had lunch on the island. That's true. For an hour. We left with all of my children

Those cracks will be quickly plastered over, just as they have been after every "deal-breaker" of the last hundred years.

Because it's not about faith, it's about power.

And money, racism, resentment, homophobia, etc.
StarTrib should make clear the issue of who is to be obeyed: Trump or Jesus? I’m not an evangelical, but I obey “Love Thy Neighbor.”

“For Romelle Haugen, …, the answer to the question of what would Jesus do in this moment is simple. Obey & pray.”

Johnson meant someone who appealed to conservatives (and only conservatives).
I keep thinking about when Mike Johnson was asked about the NFL getting Bad Bunny to play the halftime show and he responded by saying they should find "someone who appeals to a broader audience" like... 82-year-old Lee Greenwood.

Really shows how much of a bubble the right lives in.

Anti-choice extremists in Indiana are trying to force the release of records for the very few legal abortions in the state (146 in 2024). The purpose is to intimidate patients and providers and expose them to harassment, arrests, and violence.

From seizing voter data in Georgia to calling for federal control over state elections, Trump is escalating his attempt at political self preservation by subverting the upcoming election. Aware of growing public rejection of his cruel policies, he is focused on rewriting the rules to cling to power.

So the reason younger generations are priced out of the housing market isn't stagnant wages, asset inflation, institutional investors, regulations promoting more expensive detached single-family homes, and other systemic and policy issues, we're all just lazy.

Ok Boomer.

Well, she did say she was going to replace the experts and academics with people of "differing viewpoints".

Of course this means people who have no expertise in anything but peddling bullshit.

Is it any surprise she replaced actual medical experts with grifting quacks?

1) US Senators, much like law enforcement at all levels, are public figures/servants.

2) As public servants, they are answerable to the public.

3) The public cannot make them answer for misconduct if they cannot be identified.

4) Which is why ICE (and other shitty cops) want to wear masks.
Tillis says he opposes ICE being barred from wearing masks: "I've seen people dox me. I've seen people take pictures and identify law enforcement officers and then put their families at risk. So, I think that's a step too far."
