Imagine watching Sinatra, son of Dolly & Antonini born in Genoa & Sicily, respectively, and Martin, son of Gaetano & Angela, born in Montesilvano, Italy & Ohio respectively, (Angela to parents born in Monasterolo, Italy), and crusading against the value of children of immigrants to the U.S.

The DOJ isn’t going to prosecute itself. Congress is talking about using its own authority to step in using its own constitutional powers to enforce accountability. When DOJ refuses to act (especially in matters involving its own conduct) Congress can’t rely on the executive branch to police itself.

For the first time in a generation, we have censorship of the press.

Not because the government prohibits publication of offending material.

But because the administration coerces and dangles corrupt incentives like help with billion-dollar mergers.

No. There are NOT two types of people. Anyone who knew Epstein, flew in his plane, visited his homes, had dinner with him, partied with him, etc should have recognized what was going on as at events, on his plane, in his homes, young girls were visible. No one is above the law who knew Epstein.

So they've apparently had 1000 agents working through the 300GB of Epstein files, and they've managed to release under 1% of them, and those wholly or heavily redacted.
Trump must feature in them an awful lot for the task to be so onerous.

Maria Shriver, niece of JFK:

He was a man interested in the arts, culture, education, language, history... It is beyond comprehension that the president has sought to rename this great memorial.

C’mon my fellow Americans! Wake up! This is not dignified. This is not funny... It’s downright weird.

Republicans just blocked my attempt to force the release of the video of the 'second strike' that killed shipwrecked survivors on September 2nd.

This is their latest move to provide cover for this administration as it drags us closer to war with Venezuela.

Public service is a public trust. Members of Congress should not profit from their positions or trade on info we may receive as part of our official duties.

That's why I signed a discharge petition to force an up-or-down vote on a stock trading ban and help restore confidence in our government.

They need to release this one. The American people have a right to see what is being done in their name.

I understand that a lot of folks have been misled by fear-mongering and powerful regressive voices but it’s still astonishing to me that so many have fallen for the idea that oppressively policing other people’s gender identity and expression could in any way be part of an enlightened future.
