Next time MAGA tells you that they care about kids, tell them this:
Donald Trump and Marco Rubio's State Department has quietly ended the contract to transfer evidence of Russian abductions of Ukrainian children to the European authorities.
Republicans don't care about children.

Extraordinary moment — Nancy Pelosi issues a statement calling on Democratic senators to reject the House funding bill, i.e. to defy Chuck Schumer.
"Democratic senators should listen to the women," she says, referring to Murray/DeLauro who want a 1-month stopgap bill instead.

The call was miles, light years, beyond the pale and if the clerk really engineered on both sides, having clerked on the Supreme Court and knowing better, his role needs to be scrutinized as well.

Our Wins Of The Week
To most of us, in light of the election result and the impending swearing-in of Donald Trump to his second term in office, it would appear Trump got away with everything.

Republicans nominated and voted for Trump in 2016, 2020, and 2024. Republican politicians endorsed him and refused to impeach him twice.
Nearly every Democrat fought him every step of the way to protect democracy.

A quick note: It is my view that the term “First Felon” should be capitalized both out of respect and because it refers to a very specific individual.

Re-upping this. If you happen to know how to get a hold of Biden, could you let him know?
Dear Joe,
I know it feels really wrong to order your AG to release a Special Counsel report because that’s been a bad thing to do for so long. But the Supreme Court says it’s okay now. It’s legal. It’s an official act.
So go ahead, Mr. President. It’s normal now.
