Phang: "Capital One said, 'We don't want the business anymore of the 45th president of the United States, his businesses, his failed sons, and his revocable trust.' So you can imagine -- I am just hypothesizing... but it suggests whatever Capital One uncovered was pretty bad. Makes you wonder..."

So now the next step is to find out what Capital One's months-long anti-money laundering review by professionals with decades of law enforcement experience discovered about Trump's 300+ accounts...

Trump: "Everybody saw the vandalism. All you have to do is look at the tape." (There is no tape. Trump is nuts.)
You could grow a spine and do your damn jobs.
Cornyn: "There's nothing we could do to rein in the president"
Schiff: "This is someone who has violated his code of ethics blatantly, misled this committee, supported establishment of a fund for cop beaters, covered up docs implicating president in the Epstein files, use DOJ to enrich the president. Is this who we're prepared to confirm as AG? It appears so."
Cornyn: "As to the idea it could be revived in the future, I think it's highly unlikely that could happen without the cooperation of the DOJ. And I think Mr Blanche gave us the assurances that it was dead and would not be revived and in this case we have no alternative but to take his word" 🙃
the intentional abdication by Congress of nearly all of its constitutional responsibilities is at the core of most of our problems as a nation
Cornyn: "There's nothing we could do to rein in the president"
They’re all spineless cowards afraid of his voters.
Cornyn: "There's nothing we could do to rein in the president"
I think the "I am just a smoll bean" joke is overdone, but the Senate of the United States can't do anything to rein in the President is that joke.
Cornyn: "There's nothing we could do to rein in the president"
He serves in the branch that the Constitution specifically charges with the duty of removing the President for criming.
Cornyn: "There's nothing we could do to rein in the president"
Wow. If this isn’t the mentality of Trump’s party in a sound bite I don’t know what is.
Cornyn: "There's nothing we could do to rein in the president"
The Democrats' midterm ad practically writes itself.

So many sneering elitist journalists with snarky posts over the past months that the Reflecting Pool story was trivial. It was so trivial that the DC US Attny presented false evidence to a grand jury to indict an innocent man to please the President while they both lied about it.
To be clear, the orange felon lied about vandalism at the Reflecting Pool to pretend he didn’t hire his fellow criminal fraud contractors to deliberately destroy it because he’s a hateful trashy jealous vindictive fuckwad. It wasn’t flawed work, it’s exactly what he wanted.
Epstein files aren't worth seeing or discussing, but Fauci's personal diary...? THERE's our new distraction. I'd listen to this remarkable woman.
Just an appreciation post for this guy. The COVID pandemic would have been far worse without Dr. Fauci's decades of experience as guidance through it. Had he been working under an adult president and not the child that presided over 2020, he would have saved even more lives without having to contend
Dead or alive, Mitch McConnell is on extended medical leave — on your dime. This is the same Mitch McConnell who voted against: paid family and medical leave for everyone else.
Now do Trump pleading the 5th over 450 times.
So we're all agreed that donald j trump, who pled the 5th over 400 times in his deposition in 2022 regarding the NY fraud case against the trump organization, is a fucking lying pos.
Fauci accuses Rand Paul of having an "unhinged obsession with calling for my prosecution" and of making "repeated slanderous comments," then says "although it pains me to do so... under advice of my attorneys, I will invoke my right under the 5th Amendment to refrain from answering your questions."
“Ms. Moreno, the daughter of Senator Moreno ... has said that Mr. Miller scalded her chest and stomach by throwing hot water from a skillet at her body; held a gun to her head; pushed her against a wall and hit her head; and fractured their daughter’s collarbone and bruised her shoulder. ...
So now we know why the CEO of General Motors introduced him. He’s using our money to buy/promote Cadillacs. Everything is transactional in this crass, avaricious administration.
Phang: Judge Sullivan found, in both fact and law, that the acting attorney general conceded he violated the law—a law that is intended to bring sunlight and transparency to one of the worst crimes, indeed multiple crimes committed by multiple perpetrators, in American history.
