The message behind “quiet, piggy” was not subtle.
I decide who speaks. I decide what truth is. I decide whose pain persists and whose gets erased. I decide what women are allowed to ask me. I decide which crimes survive and which get swallowed in smoke.

The Democratic Party would be a lot better if it had embraced Zohran Mamdani the way it's embracing Marjorie Taylor Greene.

We’ve talked about how we in the media normalize (even incentivize) aberrant behavior by public figures who make it their brand.
But just imagine if an official in your city or town had told a female reporter asking about a sex abuse scandal, “Quiet, piggy.” Headlines for days.

When asked on Air Force One if there was anything "incriminating" in the Epstein emails, Trump pointed a finger at the female reporter's face and said “Quiet. Quiet, Piggy.”

Raskin: "We hear even the Speaker of the House openly inviting the US Senate to start finger painting on this bill, which we have waited more than 5 months to bring to the floor. The Senate should pass the bill exactly as it's written ... the president could release the Epstein files right now!"

A reminder: The Attorney General of the United States should be the people's lawyer, not the president's personal attorney. The Department of Justice should act to protect the public, not just the occupant of the Oval Office and his political allies.

The moment when 30 million American's received healthcare (2010) The moment when insurance companies had to start covering preexisting conditions, young adults could stay on their family's policy and I could trust that the small print couldn't screw me if I needed serious medical assistance. 🇺🇸

Importantly, the federal government has largely ceased or dramatically curtailed these investigations as agents have been reassigned to deportation efforts. Which we have to assume is the core purpose of this data. Turning the entire federal government into a deportation racket.

If Trump genuinely wanted the Epstein files released, he could order the Justice Department to release them — rather than go through the circus of a discharge petition.
Trump has already tried time and time again to usurp the power of Congress.
What's stopping him now?

Hot take - even as a joke, I don't really like the idea of ppl blaming interns for taking down production
Even on the chance it happened to be true (and there are definitely cases where it wasn't an intern), if an intern was able to do that, that's a problem with the processes and systems in place

This really needs to be stressed, as it seems obvious Trump is going to let them vote to release it and then pretend his hands are tied.
He’s had the power to release them all along, and still does. It’s just his excuses that are changing.

The second paragraph of every article about Trump freeing House Republicans to vote to release the Epstein files should make it clear that he could order them released himself and chooses not to.
