Q: Politico reported on a group chat of young Republicans. Does this just reflect some bad apples?

HOCHUL: Some bad apples? These are the future of the GOP. This is so vile it's hard to find the words to put into context ... there's gotta be consequences ... this bullshit has to stop.

AZ AG Mayes: If I have to, I’ll take Speaker Johnson to court. There's no legitimate reason for him to refuse to swear her in right now. And it's not fair for Mike Johnson to be holding the state of Arizona hostage because he doesn't want to release the Epstein files.

Good. This isn't just their usual revenge games. They will go to nearly any length to keep those files hidden to protect dear leader.

Pardon me if I delay celebrating this vile cretin losing until those poor Sandy Hook families he victimized for cheap publicity see all of the cash. I don't trust him for a second.

Of course it is.

Johnson closed Congress on Trump’s orders to deliberately stop a vote to release the Epstein files.

I wonder why?

"At first I thought it was a little bit of a conspiracy theory... but at this point..."

Representative-Elect Adelita Grijalva suggests her support for the full release of the Epstein files is delaying her swearing in as a member of Congress in the US.

NATO Secretary General Rutte:
…Now there is hardly any Russian naval presence in the Mediterranean left

There is a lone&broken Russian submarine limping home from patrol.What a change from the 1984 Tom Clancy novel The Hunt for Red October.Today, it seems more like The Hunt for the Nearest Mechanic

“An essential condition today for entry into the upper echelons of Conservative party politics is being willing to at least pretend that you think taking Britain out of the EU was a good idea. This is a never-ending lobotomy for the Tories”

Brexit will always ruin you in the end.

Vaccines are safe and effective.

Autism isn't caused by vaccines, and autistic people and their families deserve our support.

When you want information, ask your doctor.

It's more important than ever for all of us to speak plainly, truthfully, and directly about public health.

Trump's conversation with Indonesian President Prabowo Subianto is caught on a hot mic. Hard to tell exactly what they are talking about, but Subianto asks Trump about meeting Eric Trump and Don Jr, who supposedly have nothing to do with government while they run the family business.
