I don't think legacy media is reading the room correctly on the Epstein Files. Many of us are asking why they have ignored this story for the last decade? Why did they dismiss all of us who were concerned that Trump might be compromised? And where is their fucking contrition and apology now?

I am crossing my fingers and toes that AOC primaries Chuck Schumer.
Senate Democrats asked for a year of ACA subsidies and were told to fuck off.
So they came back and asked for a pinky promise to hold a vote on ACA subsidies that they will assuredly lose?
Seriously?

The story of 2024 is this: Trump had a plan to destroy American government called Project 2025, which had, literally, not a typo, a 4% approval rating. He lied constantly and said he wouldn't do it.
Then he entered office and immediately implemented AN EVEN MORE EXTREME VERSION OF IT.

Anyway, the operator also mentioned that the system to cancel Disney+ subscriptions is down.
So if you think you canceled, double check. The process involves multiple confirmation emails. If you only received one, you might be stuck halfway.

New data shows that for every millionaire who got a Trump tax cut, four Americans will lose their health insurance.
Republican Megabill’s Tax Cuts for Millionaires Are Financed by Taking Health Insurance From 4.7 Million People | Center on Budget and Policy Priorities
