Take note how disingenuous the media is re: today's Epstien files vote.
Once Bondi reopened an investigation last week it GUARANTEES the files will NOT be released, even if trump signs the bill after passage but the media keeps stringing the public along as if we're going to see anything at all.🙄

A Never Trump republican who, over the last decade parlayed trumps presidency into her own personal windfall just like so many of her Never Trump republican colleagues and the left just keeps on filling their coffers. 👀 at you Nicolle Wallace who has never once called on her former boss to speak out

No it's not literally the purpose of taxes. 🙄
Dems better look out for the uneducated taking over the party.
Y'all already lost me after 4+ decades of being a Democrat.
I'll never vote rethuglican but I'll never again lift a finger to elect a dem until they get their act together.

Yes your taxes should support disabled people.
They should support homeless people.
They should support those living in poverty, children and the elderly.
This is literally the purpose of taxes, and I would far rather support those who need it than continue to enrich the elite.

I’m cynical enough to think one of the reasons they picked Noem for that job besides her highly appealing sadism is so they could do the conservative cowboy gaslight theater of protecting a woman whenever anyone tries to challenge her

From this list I'd have to go with Falco simply because it was groundbreaking at the time, it was so different from anything else.
You are both terribly wrong.

I keep coming back to this as to why trump is focused on the region. One of these countries w/o an extradition treaty is going to be where he relocates to, allowing him to escape accountability for everything he's doing. He's building a safe haven in the region with the business deals he's doing.

I warned people a decade ago that he would eviscerate institutional knowledge across government. I was told I was crazy,a conspiracy theorist, etc. I'm just a person with deductive reasoning & critical thinking skills who can think beyond what the media chooses to cover. Here we are🤷♀️
This story has a dozen or so nice anecdotes on why institutional competence matters and exactly what we've lost by this administration's hackneyed "reforms."
