I am a glass half full person who believes kindness is essential.

I love dogs, cats, and birds.

A happy day for me involves cooking, time in the garden, a good book or a great new series to stream.

Trump sued the Pulitzer Board, and it just backfired spectacularly. Now they’re demanding his psychological records, medication history, and tax returns. 👀

So, the answer is yes, he did move her to a Club Fed.
WELKER: Why was Ghislaine Maxwell moved just days after you interviewed her?

BLANCHE: That's a Bureau of Prisons security issue that I will not talk about

WELKER: Did you have anything to do with it?

BLANCHE: I am responsible for the Bureau of Prisons, so every decision they make lands on my desk

lmao this program is completely compromised. what do you mean “the spirit if not the intent” of the law? what?
BRENNAN: This isn't everything you asked for just yet, but would you acknowledge that they are complying with the spirit if not the intent of your law?

MASSIE: No. They're flouting the spirit and the letter of the law. It's very troubling the posture that they've taken.

Trump issued orders to DOJ to shield him, other figures in his administration and his friends, and to play up Clinton and people who have criticized Trump. And that's exactly what DOJ did. What a farce. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

Pam Bondi's DOJ has actually done precisely what a senior DOJ Republican was saying they would do here. I have no problem with every Democrat being unmasked and revealed. Let's have he Republicans too, please, and the assorted friends of Don.

The Trump regime is breaking the law by not releasing all the Epstein files today and by sticking Trump's name on the Kennedy Center and by continuing to murder people on boats near Venezuela.
The White House is in the hands of criminals, and they'll keep committing crimes until we stop them.

"In a letter to Congress obtained by The Associated Press, Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche wrote that the Justice Department was continuing to review files in its possession and expected additional disclosures by the end of the year."

By the end of the year is not TODAY!

Americans do not have to accept ICE spreading fear in their cities, hunting down immigrants and citizens alike. Poorly trained agents, pressured by Miller, reduced to meeting deportation quotas, embody the security of a fascist regime.

We're still getting several hundred thousands pages of the Epstein files before midnight.

The lack of full compliance, though, is going to lead to instantaneous court actions. Dems are ready to go.

Hey! Remember when Barr (Bondi) withheld the Mueller (Epstein) documents for weeks so he (she) could mischaracterize what was in the Mueller (Epstein) Report and spin the findings for three weeks and then over-redact them? I sure do!
