An essential development over the past decade-plus is that the ignorant went from feeling chastened when their ignorance was revealed to banding together and deciding that, actually, they were right. They might disagree at times, but they agreed that ignorance itself was an indicator of trust.

So they've apparently had 1000 agents working through the 300GB of Epstein files, and they've managed to release under 1% of them, and those wholly or heavily redacted.
Trump must feature in them an awful lot for the task to be so onerous.

I don’t think the law passed by Congress said that DOJ has to release less than 1% of the materials by Dec 19.

218 members signed the discharge petition to force a vote to extend ACA tax credits.

If Speaker Johnson refuses to bring forth the vote, he’s telling the American people loud and clear that rising health care costs are acceptable to him.

Your Medicaid is cut. Your health insurance is not safe. Your tips are still taxed. You pay the tariffs. There’s no trade deals. No wars have ended. Gas isn’t $2. Eggs aren’t cheaper. There isn’t $10 trillion in investment. The Epstein files are buried.

It’s. All. Lies.

All the time.

There are actually quite a few undocumented Russians in the US.

Anyone have any videos of ICE forcefully deporting them?

Or just the brown people?

Have you tanked your economy?

Was your birthday parade an embarrassment?

Did the richest man in the world allude to you being a nonce?

Did you lose your bid to challenge a sexual abuse & defamation lawsuit?

If so, you need WAR!

Republicans in Congress can repeal every tariff tomorrow and take Trump’s tariff authority away from him. But they choose not to. So every Republican in Congress owns EVERY SINGLE BIT of this. You can’t hide from the voters forever.

Facts:

Elon Musk is not in the cabinet.
Elon Musk is not a department head.
Elon Musk was not confirmed by the Senate.

“DOGE” is not a real department.
“DOGE” was never created by Congress.
“DOGE” is acting outside all legal authority.

“DOGE” is fake — and 100% CORRUPT.

It seems to me that if Musk has proof that millions of social security checks have gone out illegally to dead people, he should be presenting that evidence in front of a grand jury under oath tomorrow instead of shitposting it on social media. When can we do this under oath?
