I hope more than just one Congressperson wonders about this and officially inquires.

DO YOU LIVE IN A BLUE STATE WITH A DEMOCRATIC ATTORNEY GENERAL?
Tell your AG you encourage The Interstate Anti-Corruption Compact. "Democratic state attorneys general can investigate and charge Donald Trump and his Cabinet for seditious, corrupt, and criminal conduct right now."

It takes the Seditionist-in-Chief to call legislators who invoke constitutional law seditionists and call for their death.

At what point does the gaslighting reach the critical mass where somebody throws a lit match into all of it?

One minute Trump says "Investigate Dems in the files," the next he says "Release the files." Why does he suddenly not care? DOJ will use the ONGOING INVESTIGATIONS excuse to avoid releasing the files revealing who engaged in the MONEY LAUNDERING and FRAUD CONSPIRACIES.
Congress passes bill to force the release of the Epstein files
The overwhelming bipartisan votes come after President Donald Trump reversed course and encouraged Republicans to support the measure he had previously opposed.

Next up: the smarter cover-up. He’ll sign it and then instantly say he’s investigating people in the files, and because there are new investigations, none of the file information can be released right now.

The public won’t buy it and this isn’t going to go away.😡

There's no problem here.

Wouldn't a year+ of impossible health insurance costs turn every single MAGA recipient of ACA against the GOP?

AND we get the Epstein files.

Other people will suffer anyway. Strategy is a form of triage. Dems can play this to a Blue Wave in Nov. 2026.

Trump is the frontman. These are the architects: Heritage, Federalist Society, Claremont, ALEC, CNP, Turning Point, Judicial Crisis Network, America First Legal, Koch’s Americans for Prosperity, and the right-wing media machine.

SHOCKING NEWS: The Trump regime is lying about Friday’s protest in Broadview.

Protesters were thrown to the ground. Several people were shot in the head with pepper balls, unprovoked—as if for sport.

Our First Amendment rights are under attack. We will not be silent.
