What prevents him from sharing info with the public? I truly don't understand why reverence for the "institutions" matters more right now than sharing the truth.
Jack Smith still wants to speak in public:
In a new letter, Smith says he wants the American public to "hear the facts" about his two criminal cases against Trump — asking the House Judiciary Committee to release video of his closed-door deposition and schedule an open and public hearing.

For a GOP president—after the Iraq War—to say outright that invading Venezuela is all about oil is wild. But it is. It’s also about corruption, power, graft, and land. And we should take him at his word.

Hey! Remember when Barr (Bondi) withheld the Mueller (Epstein) documents for weeks so he (she) could mischaracterize what was in the Mueller (Epstein) Report and spin the findings for three weeks and then over-redact them? I sure do!

2022 and 2025 are not the worst economic years in modern US history. Yet consumers think they are.
2008-09 had crashing markets and much higher unemployment.
Early 1980s had much higher inflation and higher unemployment.
Whatever consumer sentiment measures now, it's not really the macroeconomy.

OPINION by @zeeshanaleem.bsky.social:
“That the DNC is mothballing whatever audit it could bring itself to conduct underscores that the party remains petrified of its own reflection.”

Birth of a Nation was so racist that it literally *restarted the Klan* when it came out.
one thing that is important to know is that BIRTH OF A NATION is so racist that people at the *time*, in 1915, were like, “holy shit this is racist”
When the slightest bit of research shows he was consistently racist and a daddy issues Confederate fanboy.
People try to paint BIRTH OF A NATION as a masterpiece with some unfortunate racism. The whole movie is racist, the “masterpiece “ thing was backfilled to excuse it.
