My suggestion is to name it The Trump-Epstein Memorial Ballroom and fill it with DOJ prosecutor offices

Odd that the DoJ is opening an investigation into the Epstein files since they said in July that there was no client list and nothing to release.

I decided to convert dollars to centimeters. That allows us to visualize, for example, the distance between having no money and being at poverty level — about four city blocks.

In July, an FBI memo about the Epstein case said: “We did not uncover evidence that could predicate an investigation against uncharged third parties.”
But in a desperate deflection today, Trump ordered AG Bondi to investigate Bill Clinton. She got right on it.
These people make dirt look clean.

This is actually good spin, or would have been. But the fact that the Democratic cave happened without even a coordinated, agreed-upon message like this indicates the depth of the leadership void.

If you really wanted to stay healthy, you'd be wealthy.
Checked out my insurance options for next year. My existing plan will...
• have higher premiums
• have significantly higher deductibles
• cover less care
Great system we have here!

I heard from my cat that she is willing to consider never throwing up on a rug again. So now we'll see if she's really gonna work with me.
Shaheen: "We've heard from a number of our colleagues on the other side of the aisle that they're willing to come to the table, they're willing to work with us once the govt is open to get this done. We've heard the same thing from the White House. So now we'll see if they're really gonna work w/us"

Government works have gone without pay for more than a month. This cannot go on for much longer before workers are unable, much less unwilling, to come to work. And then what? Is the dissolution of a functioning government part of the plan?

Folks, if you are hungry, please contact your local Sikh gurdwara. Or just show up for langar, which most gurdwaras do several times a week, for a free meal. Lots also do weekly or monthly drives giving out groceries.
No conversion necessary. Feeding anyone who is hungry is a key part of Sikhism.

A lady on TikTok has been calling churches pretending to be a mother with a baby who needs formula and several churches turned her away. But wouldn’t you know that when she called a Mosque (Islamic Center of Charlotte) they immediately said yes.

If you aren't seeing skeets from some of your fave people, they might have been labeled "Rude" by bsky mods. Idk what they are thinking, I don't need a mommy to tell me who to be buddies with. Anyway, go into Settings > moderation > bluesky moderation (advanced) and turn Rude off.

Morality, decency, justice, and fairness just never enter these discussions. Nor does the possibility that effective leadership and advocacy can move the needle.
The year I was born, public approval of interracial marriage was 30 percent. Death penalty support has dropped 30 percent since 2000.
