Sen Ossoff (D-GA) nails it‼️This administration is of, by and for the Epstein Class. The middle class is getting absolutely crushed by this economy. The #TrumpAffordabilityChaos is wreaking havoc on working citizens, everything costs more and prices will only continue to rise.

I’ve said it before, and I’m sure I’ll say it a thousand times more: If you believe you love freedom but don’t care if it applies to everyone, what you actually love is privilege.

JUST IN: Les Wexner submitted a written statement to House Oversight ahead of his testimony on Jeffrey Epstein.
In the letter, Wexner says he was “naive” and duped by Epstein, calls him a “con man,” and insists he cut ties nearly two decades ago and had no knowledge of Epstein’s criminal conduct.

The decline of right wing cultural production is just due to the fact that they don’t like culture, they like the signifiers of culture, ie “classic sculpture means white people are better.” They don’t like art at all except for this purpose. They don’t even like the nerd stuff they whine about

Kudos to Stephen Colbert for standing up for himself and against tyranny.
I've always been a fan of his — going way back to the Colbert Report years.
I enjoyed chatting with him in August. Here's a brief clip from our discussion.

Missouri volunteers say they were harassed by paid GOP canvassers. It’s likely the same group accused of forging signatures in Utah
“They were like, ‘Actually, no. We’re here to stop you from getting signatures.’”
