Now we see if the DOJ blocks it...
You might not have caught what just happened on the Senate floor, but the Senate just “deemed as passed” the Epstein resolution.
That means as soon as it arrives from the House, it automatically passes the Senate (with no amendments) and heads to the President’s desk.
Wow.

Agreed. When Trump is in a corner, he doubles down.
I predict Trump will pardon Maxwell as a way to lash out and because it will be the ultimate loyalty test for the GOP (and his base)

While this provides some good news, I am of the opinion this also means Johnson has managed to convince one of the GOP reps to take their names off the discharge petition. If I were a betting person, I'd say it was Nancy Mace. We shall see.

Dems backed Trump into a corner where he’s advocating for starving Americans and hemorrhaging support. If they vote to let him off the hook in exchange for nothing it’s a cataclysmic failure. I know people are in pain but insulating Republicans from political consequences is not the answer.
