Timeline cleanse. Maine was gorgeous last week.
Republicans just blocked the chance for a full vote in Congress to release the Epstein files. They’re banking on people not paying attention. These cowards care more about protecting billionaire pedophiles than doing their jobs.

Forcing lawmakers you disagree with to comply with 24/7 police surveillance is a gross civil liberties violation. President Trump and his allies in Texas will stop at nothing to silence voters of color, including targeting the elected officials who represent them.
