Breaking: The Supreme Court is now officially considering taking up a case overturning same-sex marriage.

This is the first time in history the court has considered rolling back this right.
You go girl! We need somebody with courage and backbone.
Lori has a bigger dick than ICE *and* the Italians, I think she can do it

this is great because the context makes it clear that she’s not talking about generally, just in terms of renovation, but we have no obligation whatsoever to care and they’re going to sound like idiots explaining

I am looking forward to this hearing.

It will provide an excellent opportunity to remind people of all the reasons why Donald Trump should he serving a long federal prison term.
BREAKING: Jack Smith is insisting upon a public hearing if Congress wants to talk to him

Good. Why does the GOP want backroom secret questioning? What are Republicans afraid of?

Let the American people see & hear for themselves!

Trump: "Even that garbage deal they had this wknd, which was embarrassing to them. And the crowds were not big at all. But when you look at signs and they're all made professionally in a printing shop, some guy is paying for all that stuff ... they're going crazy because they're getting paid"

Clearly he's giving a lot of thought to these pardons, not just signing whatever they put in front of him.
COLLINS: Today you pardoned the founded of Binance. Can you explain why you did that?

TRUMP: Which one was that?

COLLINS: The founder of Binance

TRUMP: I believe we're talking about the same person, because I do pardon a lot of people. I don't know. He was recommended by a lot of people.

Trump's brain flits from topic to topic: "The thing I can tell you right now, it's very hard to find any floating vessel right now on the Pacific or in the Gulf. I would like to call it by it's official name, the Gulf of America. Another little triumph of the Trump administration."

Trump on ICE agents: "Now I understand why they should wear masks. I think it's very dangerous for them not to wear masks. They can do whatever they want."
Mike Johnson refuses to swear in Representative-elect Adelita Grijalva — because her vote could force the House to release the Epstein Files. The GOP is doing everything they can to keep Trump's Epstein cover-up going.
Think that's outrageous? Just wait til the Big Beautiful BS Bill kicks in!
From mid-August to mid-October we added $1 trillion more dollars to our debt. ONE TRILLION DOLLARS IN TWO MONTHS! To put this in perspective: The U.S. hit $34 trillion in Jan. 2024, $35 trillion in July 2024, $36 trillion in Nov. 2024, $37 trillion in Aug. 2025 and now $38 trillion in October 2025
US hits $38 trillion in debt, after the fastest accumulation of $1 trillion outside of the pandemic
The U.S. government's gross national debt has surpassed $38 trillion during the federal shutdown, marking a record high.

in world war 2 when germany was in retreat, they ended up sending the hitler youth to the front lines of the war to defend berlin.

just a completely unrelated fact i thought you should think about.
NBC News finds that:
-- ICE has shortened its training from 13 weeks to six.
-- Nearly half of recruits couldn’t pass an open-book written exam.
-- Recruits "are supposed to attest" they can pass the physical-fitness test, which requires them to run ... 6 mph.

Mike Johnson is now pretending that it's Rep-Elect Grijalva who is not doing her job, when he's the one shirking his duties.

And even *he* knows this is bullshit. He corrects himself to call her "Rep-Elect" not "Rep" because he actually understands there's a very important difference.
Mike Johnson: "Rep. Grijalva can work -- Rep.-elect Grijalva can work for her constituents right now. Constituent services, answering the phones, she has computers and 16 employees and there's no excuse for it. The Epstein files are being released."

Today, Mike Johnson will keep the House adjourned for the 80th day out of the last 92.

The senate has been working, so this is not about the shutdown.

It is about avoiding a vote to release the Epstein files.

Why does everyone keep calling it “The Epstein Ballroom?” Please stop repeating “The Epstein Ballroom” because it is not called “The Epstein Ballroom!” Don’t tell the news that it’s called “The Epstein Ballroom” and please don’t repost this!!!!!
