With all this talk of how to end Russias war against Ukraine, and a cease fire, keep this in mind:
If Ukraine ceases firing, Ukraine will cease to exist.
If Russia ceases firing. the war will cease to exist.
Pretty clear

Damn, Bill Clinton just called Trump & Pam Bondi's bluff. Clinton released a statement calling on Bondi to release all of the Epstein files that mention him - including photos.
This is what a president with a spine looks like.
Meanwhile, Trump is having the FBI scrub his name from the files.

BRENNAN: What are you going to do to force DOJ to comply?
MASSIE: The quickest way and most expeditious way to get justice for these victims is to bring inherent contempt against Pam Bondi. That doesn't require going through the courts. We're drafting that right now.

The White House claims the vote to rename the Kennedy Center was “unanimous.” That is false. I was muted on the call and denied the opportunity to speak or register my opposition. That is not consensus. That is censorship.

A quite startling overperformance for Democrats in tonight's special election for a state Senate seat in Kentucky:
Democrat Gary Clemons won 72% to 25%.
He was defending a Dem-held seat where Kamala Harris beat Trump by 5% last year.
