I honestly wonder if the president can explain what “the rate” he wants Powell to cut actually is, and what role it plays in debt markets.
(I know the answer, but I do wonder)

Note that article about Trump, Maxwell, and De Georgiou, when she's 20, is after De Georgiou had already been abused by Epstein.
Funny coincidence how the next person Maxwell sends her to after Epstein is Trump.

Has any Rep thought to put a 12 panel picture board together with images of ICE and cartel members and force the admin to tell us which is which?

The strategy is to do your Constitutionally-approved job and make them stop you. Make them show the world that they violate the Constitution. Make them show where they draw the lines and how they want to exercise power.

Tonight, we forced Republicans to take a simple vote:
Can we all agree that billionaire corporations like Amazon and Tesla - who take home over $1 billion in sheer profit a year - shouldn't get another tax handout?
Republicans said no.

In recent years, Judge Boasberg has:
- ordered the release of Hillary’s emails
- ensured Trump’s tax returns never became public
- restricted disclosure from the Mueller investigation
- limited disclosure of grand jury material in the Trump classified docs case.
The resistance, he ain’t.

Leavitt: This judge is a Democrat activist. He was appointed by Barack Obama
Reporter: He was originally appointed by George W. Bush and elevated by Obama. Feel I should clear that up.

What he said about Social Security payments has been repeatedly debunked - so the question isn’t whether he’s lying about this, the question is why.
What is this a pretext for? He and the GOP have long shown interest in going after Social Security. What are they going to try?
