What's the betting as soon as Grijslva is sworn in , there will be an about face by some Repubs to avoid the 218 by- pass rule, and the Epstein files will be with- held.
Peodo tRump won't give in just yet.....

If Maxwell isn't careful...she could end up as a suicide death...

Hope her (potential?) incriminating information is securely tied to her living a long life...until she can escape to Crete..or somewhere safe?

A big shout of thanks and support to the clinicians at Queen Victoria Hospital, East Grinstead who did some work on me yesterday.

That'll teach them to use Francis Lee as the inspiration.
Russia presented its human-like AI robot. It fell down as it walked onto the stage.

Farage is a GB news shareholder and is paid through a private company for his appearances on the channel.
So, here he is shit-stirring with Trump over the BBC and grifting his nasty little arse off…
There is really nothing of ours he won’t ruin to grab for power and wealth for himself.

Among the January 6th rioters were leaders of the Proud Boys and the Oath Keepers militia groups. The FBI estimates 2,000–2,500 people entered the Capitol during the attack.

Are they all in ICE now?

JD's family has spent $35M on vacations.

Kash Patel used a $60M FBI jet to go on a date.

Trump spent $98M to golf for 24% of the days of this term.

ALL WITH OUR TAX DOLLARS.

But you think a single mom getting $6 a day for SNAP is the problem?

The first and last lines of Joni Ernst’s legacy as a human on earth will be that she was instrumental in the confirmation of the Sec of Defense most hostile to women serving in military, and she knew that when she voted for him.

If we're talking about bias, why do BBC politics programmes, from Politics Live to the Laura Kuennsberg Show, still always begin with a look at the newspaper front pages, which are overwhelmingly biased in one direction. Helps frame the entire news agenda and debate in their favour

Just listening to a radio program today prompted this thought about that offensive statement from JD Vance that he hoped his wife will convert from her Buddist beliefs to his 'Christian' ("superior")belief.

Maybe he should consider HE should convert to Buddism?

Trump's legal team has written to the BBC, giving them until Friday to apologise and "appropriately compensate" him

Suggest offering him a gift voucher for Tricolor....that's about the appropriate response

Robbie Gibb was appointed to the BBC Board by Boris Johnson, was an editorial advisor for GB News, and worked as Theresa May's Director of Comms.

He is not impartial or neutral. The government should remove him from the Board immediately to protect the BBC's independence.

Time to get rid of Gibb and Grossman from the Beeb too.....far too right wing influenced for the BBC's own good

tRump wants BBC to make a "full and fair retraction" of the documentary - or face being sued for $1bn (£760m)
He accuses the BBC of making "false, defamatory, disparaging, misleading, and inflammatory statements"
BBC should list all the untrue statements tTump has ever made to prove "misleading" etc

The serial rapist has finally found a way to make money.

After squandering his $ 400 million inheritance and his russian loans, all while telling everyone he's a financial genius for 40 + years, is now using the power of the US economy to extort billion$ into his family accounts.

Just sayin'

As I see it
Demo senators 'agree'
Repub Finance Bill & it's sent to lower house

Lower house HAS to be opened to receive it by speaker Johnson who will HAVE to swear in new Congress lady Grijalva.

Dems have then majority to command (Repub sanitised?) Epstein Files?

Was that the Demo's real plan?
