I’m still thinking about “quiet, piggy.” No president should be able to speak to a member of the press that way and remain president. That moment encapsulates how vile, misogynistic, and horrible that man is.

Bring back the Eisenhower tax rates.
I think we should call anyone with a net worth of over $1B what they are: a sociopath

Of all the many anti corruption revisions needed to thwart another fascist takeover, the relationship between the prez and the AG is one of the big ones.
This is what America looks like without an Attorney General. This is what America looks like when the Justice Department is the President’s private law firm.

Someone said there may have been a thousand girls trafficked. Which, seems to me, would mean there would be a significant International component to it. Like bringing girls from Russia etc.
So, yes. How many didn't survive?

The fastest and easiest way for them to be released is for Trump to order DOJ to do it.

Let’s be clear: The DOJ has already been subpoenaed. They’re legally obligated to release the full Epstein files—and they’re still dragging their feet.
It’s a shame we’ve even gotten to the point of needing a discharge petition.

He tells Rs to vote to release the files cuz its clearly gonna happen anyway.
Then Bondi will say no cuz they're evidence in an active investigation, which he ordered.
Then he can blame bondi for the on going cover up.

U.S. House sends THC ban to Trump, dealing blow to Texas hemp industry www.houstonchronicle.com/politics/tex... #ProudBlue. House just passed a nationwide THC ban. Unless repealed it will cost 55,000+ jobs in Texas alone. This bill wipes out a $30 billion industry overnight in favor of drug cartels

Nearly all available products would have to be removed from shelves, including edibles, beverages, and smokable forms of hemp, under the ban.
