The Republican president is a pedophile who has doubled my healthcare costs and let scores of violent criminals out of jail. But a Democratic mayor-elect wants to make busses free in a city I don't live in. I have never felt more politically homeless.

Something that’s so striking in these emails is how…unimpressive Epstein is. He comes off as a pompous, sub-literate lech. Yes everyone is so mortifyingly solicitous of him! All fawning and flattery! Why?????

What would really unlock the Epstein scandal is finding out why Acosta cut that insane plea deal.
Epstein plead to soliciting a minor. Which is bad. But not nearly as bad as what he was doing. And so the world acted accordingly. Some times in ignorance, some times with greed and cynicism.

Senator Schumer has failed to lead this party in one of its most critical moments, and Americans will pay the price. It’s time for him to step down from leadership and make way for a new generation willing to fight for the people instead of the powerful.

I've looked at all the details of this deal to end the shutdown reached by a small group of Senate Democrats. I've talked to a number of friends on the Hill to see if there's anything I'm missing. Sadly, I am not.
This is a shit deal. It's a betrayal. It's cowardice.

In just 45 days, nearly every government agency has been hacked and a cabinet hell-bent on ramping up Project 2025 has been installed. We are watching a coup in plain sight. What was democratic leadership's response?
Pink suits and signs. 🙄
Our leaders are failing us.
Decorum will be our DOOM.

Donald Trump stood in front of Congress tonight and reinforced what we already knew: He’s a corrupt megalomaniac lunatic who is running our country to the ground. These are not normal times. Everything is not fine. We are in crisis.
