This is odd, it looks like the DOJ skipped suing Texas entirely. The Justice Department is now suing California over the new congressional district boundaries that voters approved just last week, Attorney General Pam Bondi announced Thursday in a post on X. Who are they going to sue, the voters?

America's most notorious child rapist, Jeffrey Epstein, said this man was the worst person he'd ever met. Let that sink in.

So Megyn Kelly is fine with pedophiles now? It’s fine to rape 15 year olds?

It’s not just Trump and Epstein we’re learning about.

Here's Republican Megyn Kelly defending men who rape 15-year-old girls. Megyn Kelly has a 14-year-old DAUGHTER.
Megyn Kelly: "I know somebody very close to this case…Jeffrey Epstein, in this person's view, was not a pedophile…He was into the barely legal type, like he liked 15 year old girls…He wasn't into like 8 year olds…There's a difference between a 15 year old and a 5 year old."

Not sure “He was raping teenagers, not raping children” lands with the qualifier impact Megyn Kelly intended.

Apparently, the line is 5 years old for Megan Kelly.

Former NYT reporter Landon Thomas, Jr.: Its getting scary. The stories you could tell...

Epstein: Wow

Thomas: Actually I don't think he/voters would care. Being effectively shameless is a pretty powerful weapon for a presidential candidate.

Epstein: But by being a phony rich person

🔥 @aoc.bsky.social : “UNCONSCIONABLE. How is this even on the floor??”

AOC trashes @SenatorHagerty & @MarshaBlackburn’s obscene money grab, stealing millions from taxpayers directly into their own pockets for being investigated in relation to Trump’s attempt to end 🇺🇸 democracy.

This is how our government has been corrupted:

1) Donors give huge sums to elect politicians to office
2) Elected officials rewrite rules in the donors' favor
3) Donors make huge profit
4) Repeat

We must get big money out of politics.

It is the root of our dysfunction.

A normal reaction to today's news, dear Nancy, would be to express shock and horror at the significant possibility that the president of the United States is a child molester.

In light of today's blockbuster news, go back and watch my interview with Cong. Eric Swalwell. While pundits were offering a dozen policy reasons for the government shutdown, Swalwell nailed it. “We have shut down the government to protect Donald Trump and how close he is to the Epstein Files.

Your regular reminder that we desperately need to overturn Citizens United and get big money out of politics.

It is among the worst Supreme Court decisions in history.

It corrupts our political system every day.

Donald Trump just threw a late-night tantrum over an advertisement created by the Canadian province of Ontario, which featured Ronald Reagan’s REAL words expressing his dislike of tariffs. Trump says that, as a result, all trade negotiations with Canada are “HEREBY TERMINATED.”
If Joffrey Baratheon grew up to be an American president, this is pretty much what it would look like.

America's Sleeping Giant roared when police attacked civil rights marchers.

And after tens of thousands of young Americans were killed in Vietnam.

And when Nixon tried to cover up Watergate.

Today it roars once more — at the tyrant in the Oval Office.

Enough is enough. Adelita Grijalva was elected on September 23. The people of Arizona have a right to be represented in Congress.
 
During today’s pro forma session, when the House is called to order I will seek unanimous consent to insist upon the swearing-in of Adelita Grijalva.
