Wait, the source of the tape was not the US government?
Three things about the Witkoff tapes:
1) It appears Western intelligence services have decided to let Witkoff (and Trump) know they have recordings of their traitorous conversations w/Russia.
2) This Ukraine "deal" was all Witkoff's idea.
3) Congressional leaders should demand he be fired.

Massive expansion of the Gestapo kidnapping forces, now under way.
NEW: ICE has torn up its $180M cap on a proposed immigrant-tracking program and is now guaranteeing private surveillance firms at least $7.5M each, with potential payouts reaching $281M per vendor. The change signals a shift from “pilot” to full-scale outsourcing of street-level investigative work.

I gave my mom what I thought was a soup-themed bath bomb some years back, but it was actually soup. She had to call my dad in to get her out of the greasy tub.

De Niro understands what too many people refuse to face - Donald Trump is not simply stupid or incompetent or demented. He’s malicious and he wants to hurt the people of the United States.
🚨🚨HOLY SHIT‼️Robert De Niro just went scorched earth on “Dirty Donald” and his administration and it is delicious to watch. This is how you pushback on this fascist regime. Thank you calling out these anti-American fools for the invasive species that they are. Must watch🔥💥🔥

the demand was for a senator who checks his messages and has office hours that are actually kept, and as far as i can tell our space senator has generally kept to this
I think people should realize here that Mark Kelly is a very savvy politician who doesn't really move from where his constituents are and is notoriously careful because he's a democrat from Arizona.
The fact that he's doing this isn't just presidential ambition, it means his voters want it.

Mark Kelly: "My wife, Gabby Giffords, meeting with her constituents, shot in the head. Six people killed around her, a horrific thing. She spent six months in the hospital. We know what political violence is and we know what causes it too, The statements that Donald Trump made incites others."

Working from home update.
Lunch: had leftover beef fajitas at home, so I fired up the pan, heated up some tortillas, added cheese, then put the beef fajitas in.
Once on the plate I added some lime and salsa verde.
I’m going to say that I rule.
It was that good.
