It’s really strange the vice president of the United States is a white supremacist, who says white supremacist slogans, who publicly praises and follows the work of white supremacists, and it’s simply not mentioned or discussed in political media

Donald Trump is mentally unwell. Any reporter who covers him as if this should not be considered and addressed when writing about his acting as “President” is seriously failing at their job.

He is digging around again -- not clear if its another book/or expanded paperback version. Was asking me all sorts of questions about why you hired Ken Starr. I told him I had no idea - I think he is doing some Trump-related digging too.

The New York Times had this information about Epstein and Trump a year before the 2016 election, and said "but her emails is a more interesting topic."
It was misogyny—the publication actively helped derail Hillary Clinton's campaign—but it really does look like catch and kill, too.

To recap: Jeffrey Epstein offered a NY Times reporter photos taken in Epstein's kitchen of Donald Trump and girls in bikinis *and* implored the NYT reporter to put this information in the public discourse in 2015

Dems backed Trump into a corner where he’s advocating for starving Americans and hemorrhaging support. If they vote to let him off the hook in exchange for nothing it’s a cataclysmic failure. I know people are in pain but insulating Republicans from political consequences is not the answer.

Senator Baldwin you need to give the people of Wisconsin a detailed and honest explanation of the role the Dem caucus played in supporting or fighting Dems support for the CR. We assume the rest of you supported it in the background but used the 8 Senators who voted for it for cover.
Sending billions of U.S. taxpayer dollars to Argentina, instead of lowering health care costs for hardworking Americans, is a slap in the face to families across our country.
Trump’s message is clear: There’s money for people in other countries but not for you.

All morning was spent chasing ICE out of my neighborhood in Chicago (Avondale) and meeting other neighbors who were out patrolling on foot, on bikes, and in cars. A caravan of ICE SUVs got within a half block of my house. I finally had to use my whistle. It works. It drew others out to the street.

So NYC’s 15mph speed limit starts today, but it only applies to electric bikes, not regular bikes. Given the heavier weight, I do actually kind of get it.
BUT then the city should impose a lower speed limit for vehicles over a certain weight than it does for lighter weight cars.
