Oligarchy (noun):
A government of and by a few at the top, who exercise power for their own benefit. Their power and wealth increase as they make laws that favor themselves, manipulate financial markets, and create monopolies that put more wealth into their pockets.

Didn't Dull Leader promise to "Drain the swamp"? He certainly hasn't drained it. What he's done is build his own deep and slimy swamp and infest it with moral rot by way of unqualified, incompetent sycophants and corrupt and illegal policies.

Who wants to tell Ms. Habba to "go back where you came from"?
Her parents owe their lives to the United States accepting them as asylum seekers fleeing religious persecution in Iraq in the 1980s. She wouldn't be here if we had not offered her family safe haven.
The hypocrisy is stunning.

Habba: There were individuals that were saying that this should be a safe harbor, a safe haven. Why? America is America because we protect our own.

MAGAland is big mad at the Comey/James court rulings. Maybe throwing incompetent, unqualified third-string lawyers into the mix wasn't such a great idea.

This SOB has betrayed Ukraine, NATO, and the US to make sure Putin doesn't release documents, photos, videos showing Trump's treasonous activity. He sold us out in exchange for Putin's proven interference in our election. There are not enough obscene epithets that can express my loathing of him.

Every year at this time, I wonder what our country would be like today if JFK had not been murdered. He was far from perfect but infinitely better than what we have to deal with today, both politically and morally.

So, Ms. Maxwell will assert her Fifth Amendment rights is she is compelled to sit before a Congressional committee. Nothing shady about that, especially because she knows if she spills anything on you-know-who, she'll get Epsteined post-haste. www.politico.com/live-updates...

Trump signed the bill, but there are loopholes to delay release. He made a big deal of saying that he'd be happy to sign it in "total transparency." The only things that are transparent with the fascists are their blatant lies and corruption. www.axios.com/2025/11/19/e...

Maybe it's just my very cynical nature, but I'm going to go out on a very short limb to say that the demise of Jeffrey Epstein in a prison cell was not of his own doing but done on behalf of person or persons who knew Mr. Epstein could expose said person(s) to extreme legal misfortune. Just me?

So, Il Douche is encouraging the House Republicans to approve the release of the Epstein files. Well, they've had more than enough time to sanitize them and probably to make the pedo look like a crime-fighting saint. Anything that comes out will require a new definition of "white-wash".

There are so many issues that point to a staged event. To me, the most obvious are the actions of the Secret Service staff who allowed the target to stand up, fist raised, and expose himself to more potential fire. The miraculous regeneration of ear tissue is another. Nope, it was staged.
This needs to get a LOT of traction.

Sixty years ago, one of our mantras was "Don't trust anyone over 30". I'm starting to think we should bring that back. Time for young, progressive minds to take over.

it is almost as if someone was promoted beyond their ability
“I’ve been hearing that standards will be eliminated or severely cut back. Bari has told people that she wants to get rid of standards and is shocked that they have so much power. She also asked openly, ‘What’s the point of standards?’” one CBS source said.

What will be his excuse today for not releasing the Epstein files? He's had lots of time to come up with one.
Good to hear they’re swearing her in before her term ends.

Johnson to swear in Grijalva after nearly 50 days
The swearing in of Grijalva would mean the Epstein "discharge petition" would finally have its 218th signature, triggering a vote.
