Good for Josh Shapiro standing up for Pennsylvania's 10th Amendment rights. Unless the Courts stop them, the Trump/Project 2025 Regime will trample all over the 10th Amendment rights of ALL the states.

No surprise that Trump and Hegseth are literally murdering people with no justification.

I watched this segment. What it described was the fundamentally criminal mentality of the entire DOJ senior leadership, from Underboss Pam Bondi down to everyone willingly going along with her. It will take years to clean this sewer.

The Senate confirmation process should require ALL SCOTUS nominees to sign a legally binding pledge to be bound by the Judicial Code of Ethics, with any finding that they have violated it to carry an automatic, irrevocable resignation.

Happy Monday! Here’s your daily reminder that All Supreme Court Justices should be bound to a code of ethics.

I've posted about this and called my Senators and House Member about it repeatedly, ever since I first found out that roughly $300B of Russian Central Bank assets are frozen in the West. Including about $210B in the EU alone, with the majority held by Euroclear in Belgium and about $5B in the US.

That's the critical reason the Democrats should never surrender to the GOP Shutdown - exactly what it is - until both the House and Senate Republicans amend their DIRTY resolution and add those extended subsidies to it.

It's not just about the Epstein files. It's even more about killing the ACA without repealing it. #ShitweaselMikeJohnson, the GOP, the Heritage Foundation, and Donald Trump have been trying to do this since Obamacare was passed. They will NEVER negotiate in good faith to extend the tax credits.

Today, Mike Johnson will keep the House adjourned for the 84th day out of the last 96.

12 days of work in over 3 months.

With full pay and benefits.

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

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