The Epstein emails have damaged Trump beyond repair, because the public has now seen the gross moral rot behind Trump's presidency and the elites who prop it up (and fawned over a convicted sex creep)

Take your money out of AI and into pitchforks. My new column www.inquirer.com/opinion/epst...
Epstein’s emails are the end of America as they ruined it
If the evil banality of the world's most powerful people exposed in the Epstein emails doesn't cause a revolution, nothing will.

The work it will take to win the midterms is already happening around the country.

But to secure our strongest check on Trump’s power, we need to continue organizing year-round. Please pitch in to help us grow this movement and power the grassroots organizing that makes our electoral wins possible.

Those seeking pardons through official channels have watched while Trump grants pardons to people who never entered the system at all.

“If you’re just an average citizen, you can’t even get in the line,” one lawyer said. “I told my guy he’d probably be better off if he broke into the Capitol.”
How Trump Has Exploited Pardons and Clemency to Reward Allies and Supporters
The president’s second term has brought a flood of clemency for allies and donors — as well as felons, like him, who were convicted of financial wrongdoing.

Steak prices are up significantly up across the board. Filet up 56% since last November.

Omaha Steaks CEO: We are headed for $10 a pound ground beef in the grocery store. I don't think we will see prices come down in any meaningful way until sometime in 2027

The federal government’s extreme anti-immigrant agenda is putting people’s lives at risk – both in our communities and in detention.

This must end.

A few days ago, the Supreme Court denied a request to revisit and potentially overturn its 2015 decision to legalize gay marriage. This should never have been on the table.

Human rights shouldn’t depend upon who is sitting on the bench. They should be codified, protected, and never up for debate.

Marjorie Taylor Greene is not a hero and should not be rehabilitated. She's the same person and angling for higher office.

Just use her to weaken MAGA. Divide and destroy.

I stand with unionized Starbucks workers, who are on strike across the country right now for better wages and working conditions.

Until Starbucks strikes a fair bargain with its workers and ceases its union-busting behavior, I'll continue to boycott the company.
