Obviously bad
But National Guard troops aren't cops
And when you send troops to do cop things...
It never ends well for anyone

Don't underestimate the stench of death, both physical & political, emanating from #Trump. Case in point: #MTG 's new found "can't we all get along" rhetoric. Politicians are, if anything, self preservationists. #Epstein is bad & MTG is not on the list she's going to try and leverage that fact.

For 7 yrs, this is what I’ve told Trump’s supporters every single day: Trump doesn’t give a damn about you. He never has. And that’s got nothing to do with you and everything to do with him. You see, Trump is humanly capable of caring ONLY about Trump. And hopefully one day you’ll realize that.

every tiny crumb that leaks out is a career ending bombshell and we’re all just supposed to go on with our lives while our elected representatives shrug and tell us there’s nothing to be done about the president’s involvement in a child sex trafficking operation

agreeing to make a terrible deal while your main opponent is quite literally being boo'd on live tv by an entire stadium of people is the kind of political instinct you'd normally only find in a 3 week old dead goldfish

It shows Schumer no longer has the caucus.
It doesn't actually matter if Chuck Schumer votes for this or not.
If he can't keep his caucus unified to protect healthcare for over 10 million Americans, he should resign as leader.

@schumer.senate.gov is part of the problem. He represents uber wealthy New Yorkers some of whom are certainly featured prominently in the #Epstein files. He should resign. Until #Democrats flush these corporate shills out of the system like a colonoscopy prep, nothing will change. #shutdown

@moulton.house.gov Next time:"There are more pictures with #Trump & #Epstein together than I have with my mother or with my kids, and I bet that's true with most people, so while it might not be "proven" that Trump abused underage girls he certainly hung out & was close friends with someone who did.
