The House Oversight Committee says there has been an “intense White House cover-up” of the Epstein files.

Brooks, who positions himself as the great empath, issues a cynical dismissal of the Epstein story and defense of elites, ignoring the victims and his accomplices.

If there are no consequences to the "president" for threatening political opponents with death or being cruel to reporters, then why is it even news? Just so we can all be sad about it?

Just to review, in the last week the President of the United States:

- Refused to condemn the rise of Neo-Nazis in his party
- Tried to block the release of further evidence he sexually abused children
- Encouraged the execution of Congressional Democrats

Those are just factual statements.

After facing a stunning defeat earlier this week, the Texas gerrymandering case heads to the Supreme Court.

This decision will force Chief Justice John Roberts and the other Republican-appointed justices to pick between enforcing the rules they created and their evident loyalty to the GOP.
The Texas gerrymandering case is a test of the Supreme Court's integrity
Do the justices have any rules they won't let Republicans break?

Socialism is what they called public power.

Socialism is what they called social security.

Socialism is what they called the growth of free and independent labor organizations.

Socialism is their name for almost anything that helps all the people.

This piece reads as if it's only a matter of time before we find David Brooks in the Epstein emails.

Mark Kelly: "He's talked about sending troops into more cities, he's talked about invoking the Insurrection Act. You don't have to go too far back to his 1st administration when he went to his Sec Def & said, 'Can't we just shoot these protesters in the legs.' That is an example of an illegal order"

Ellison: Today, you should never get a Republican AG, because they’re not your AG. They’re Leonard Leo’s AG. They’re Donald Trump’s AG. But they are not your AG. They’re not Louisiana’s AG. They’re not Mississippi’s AG. They’re beholden to others.

Our leaders and countless patriots have a good reason for publicly reminding US soldiers to refuse illegal orders. Why it's a controversy. It's because many of our soldiers have been obeying illegal orders.

Let's keep that foremost in mind

You were in contact with the President and other architects of January 6th. Of course your phone records were part of the investigation. 😒

Even as we talk about a new party for liberals/progressives, I think we should have another for people who are party “INO”s - people who run on a party’s platform to get elected, only to vote against them Every. Single. Time.

And I nominate Fetterman as the inaugural member.
