Honestly baffles me that Dems didn't work harder to investigate and prosecute everyone from his first term in less than 4 years.

quandary: I've been waiting for price to drop on phones to buy replacements for my kids. They're going to drop on Black Fri. I wanted to boycott spending on BF.
Is it hurting them more to deny a sale on the big weekend, or to get something I was already planning to buy, but for cheaper?

One more reason Epstein is a piece of shit.... he could have saved us all from this hell had he come forward publicly in 2015. It's not like his rich Dem friends wouldn't have protected him too. But now we're stuck with this hellscape and he's dead.

More Senate Democrats folded to let Trump gut our healthcare than House Republicans folded to release the Epstein files.
This is example of why we can't have nice things.

THIS IS THE PROBLEM WITH BEING A SINGLE-ISSUE-VOTER.
Punishing Harris for not supporting Palestinian lives contributed to ten times as much death in other countries, and ALSO didn't help Gaza.

Probably the biggest mass-murderer of a generation, and he'll get away with it because he did it by withholding aid not dropping bombs.
This is the natural consequence of deifying capitalism. Capitalism is just a nice way of saying "rich people withholding wealth from poor people."

If you had confidence that your policies would be welcomed by your constituents, you wouldn't care about them being leaked before the bill is written. That's why we have a forum for public political debate.
Mike Johnson talks about the Republican "healthcare plan" like it's highly classified information: "We're not gonna be on a conference call explaining all our plans and strategies for healthcare reform, because they're leaked in real time."

Duh.
But zero mention of what the killer's own religious beliefs were, how he was radicalized, or talk about cracking down on "violent Christian extremists."
This is not surprising at all, but we have to keep pointing out out.

At the same time, the wealth of the top 1% in the US increased by 47 trillion.
Instead of just asking the richest millionaires and billionaires to pay a few million each in taxes over the last 36 years, we mortgaged the country.
