Retired . Grandpa. Former member of the GOP. Came to my senses in 2016. Now a Dem - always centrist. Lover of books , history, science , family and my country. Staying anonymous so my opinions impact no one else close to me.
As a former Republican, I was proud when my party ensured Nixon would resign or be removed. If Trump were to resign under pressure from the GOP , many of us would return to the party if the adults were to lead it.

The only people who matter who are not victims are those found to be complicit in the sexual abuse, found to have committed sexual abuse and DJT, because the President of the United States States must be held to the highest standard if we are to give him the highest level of power in the world.
Many, Many More Republicans are in the Epstein Files than Democrats. They are easy to spot as they disagree with the Release of the Epstein Files. David Brooks uses his position to Prevent the Release of the TRUTH. He should be Fired immediately as his writings are Shaded with Untruths. 🙏🙏👏👏👍👊⚖️🇺🇸😎

Every idiot who cheers the deranged Donny should be ashamed. The voice of true patriots will be heard starting in November when the GOP is defeated and MAGA is reduced to zero influence on our lives.
This is some really bleak shit, folks. Take a hard look at your president.

It appears wag the dog Donny will put our troops in danger and will stoop to pushing us closer to war. Isn’t it curious that Trump is escalating just as the Epstein issue heats up and is being stalled by his administration. The more the DOJ can stall the more Trump can escalate and distract.

I’ll be happy to “lie” to myself to ensure MAGA is crushed in the midterm elections.
We cannot survive another neoliberal president.
We CANNOT *TOLERATE* Another neoliberal president.
This is unlivable and inexcusable.
If you think for one second voting blue no matter who will save us, you are LYING to yourself. THIS is what they do and we MUST fight to change them.

2 years after Trump leaves office is enough time under the statute of limitations to indict DOJ and Trump admin officials for breaking the Epstein Files Law. People need to be held accountable if not now then soon.

The one conclusion one can make is that the DOJ is not in compliance with the law. In addition to not releasing all the required materials, the redactions are also not in compliance. Another conclusion one can make is that, the Trump loyal DOJ has something to hide re their “ boss”.

Impeach or indict Pam Bond if all the documents are not released by midnight.
The Epstein Files Transparency Act clearly states that the Attorney General "shall make publicly available all unclassified records, documents, communications, and investigative materials."
Not some, but ALL.

There really can’t be much new info. except it allows the public to come to grips that there is enough evidence to legally bring Trump to trial for trying to overturn a presidential election - but it is all readily available now, Jack Smith just makes the case beyond a reasonable doubt for a jury.
Jack Smith has requested that Jim Jordan release the entire video of his 8-hour closed-door testimony which he gave this week to the House Judiciary Committee.
Will Jordan release the video to the public?
If not, why not?

Blaming immigrants here legally or not, for the lack of affordable housing is ridiculous. Let’s consider one teeny factor- tariffs.

Howard Lutnick tried to justify Trump’s rant about some prices dropping more than 400%. Math scholars all over the world all started drinking heavily, but let’s let AI settle it. Mr Lutnick can twist and gaslight but ya gotta love AI.

Please share with Kennedy family members for their reactions. Hopefully Caroline Kennedy will weighs in as the most important voice on this matter

US Marshals should be ready to make arrests on orders from the courts or as a first step, the Courts could issue subpoenas to have Bondi and Blanche testify pending indictments.
Regarding Epstein files:
It’s time to start arresting people, but who’s going to arrest them when they run DOJ?
What a freaking mess!

This is against the law. Blanche and Bondi must be either arrested or held in contempt of Congress. The law was clear and had bipartisan support and was signed by the President. Non compliance is illegal.
They’re not even half way done. And didn’t realize it until this morning apparently, because they would have definitely informed congress sooner , right?

Glad law enforcement got the Brown shooter. The press conference of officials congratulating each other is self serving and facts are buried in all the statements of cooperation, empathy and professionalism .
Give the facts first please. So much still unanswered.

Really squirrelly how Trump gets the money to send checks to Troops. One has to ask if Trump is bribing the military to be loyal to him for when he makes questionable moves or wants to start a war to distract us from his behavior and failures
Trump’s $1,776 checks for more than a million troops, announced Wednesday, will actually come from reconciliation funds previously allocated by Congress that were intended to subsidize housing allowances for service members, a senior administration official confirmed.
Trump rebrands Congressionally-approved troop housing subsidy as ‘warrior dividend’ bonus
More than $2.9 billion in reconciliation funds was allocated to beef up troop housing allowances. Now it’s being used for $1,776 checks.

So the POTUS is a hyper valley girl blaming everyone but herself, exaggerating and mocking, all the while trying desperately to fix her makeup and be accepted at the cool kids table. Funny if it wasn’t so ridiculous and harmful.

Hmmm seems like all the House subcommittee evidence and the indictments are all readily available online- just ask AI… the term that comes to mind after reading and viewing is - “ beyond a reasonable doubt “.
