Before the midterms of 1866, President Andrew Johnson called his congressional opponents traitors and said they should be hanged.
Voters were so profoundly moved by his words... that they gave his opponents a supermajority in Congress, and the nation got the Fourteenth Amendment.

Shame on Rep. Clay Higgins & shame on anyone who thinks this is acceptable.
This man didn’t just cast the lone “no” vote on exposing a global sex-trafficking network… he also grabbed a citizen for daring to ask a question he didn’t like. I hope this young man presses charges.

Trump says he supports release of Epstein files, but remember, DOJ still possesses and control them. AG Bondi could “pluck” some out in the name of grand jury secrecy or privacy laws. I’ll discuss on MSNOW at 11 AM ET.

Actually I was lying here because Google Maps says South of the Border is 117 miles by car from Charlotte. More seriously, here's a map of border enforcement regions in the U.S. -- pretty sure that Charlotte is not in it. Grounds for a lawsuit?

Just a reminder that for the first several months of this admin it was MAGA activists who were calling for this to be released. And Bondi, Patel & Bongino all promised it. Then Trump freaked out and many of them reversed their positions. This was not initiated by Dems. bsky.app/profile/atru...
Barrasso: "What I know is that Jeffrey Epstein is a convicted sex offender and he is dead, and President Trump threw him out of Mar-a-Lago 21 years ago. To me what's going on with Epstein is this is the Democrats trying to appeal to their far-left base and trying to change the topic."

The way our constitutional republic works is that the supreme court is supposed to strike down actions by the executive when they perform an act that is exclusively granted to congress in the constitution. Whether it is a "signature policy" is irrelevant. bsky.app/profile/atru...
