If he was actually "totally exonerated" by the #EPSTEIN_Files as he claims, he'd be selling bound copies of it on "Truth" Social along with his other merch, like his MAGA Bibles, Red Baseball Caps & Golden Sneakers. A vote for Blanche is a vote to continue the coverup at the expense of the victims.

GAO checked DOGE's math and found the receipts were fiction. Over a quarter of claimed contract savings were never terminated at all, and DOGE just ignored the government's own questions. Two trillion promised, a fraction delivered, and Musk still won't answer for it.

I’m not taking a dime of corporate PAC money. Meanwhile, Ashley Moody is being bankrolled by the utility companies jacking up your prices. One of us is fighting for you, and the other is bowing down to billionaires.
The FCC just voted to scrap the rule preventing a single company from owning TV stations that reach more than 39% of American households. This opens the door to more media consolidation, fewer independent local voices and billionaires controlling what millions of Americans see as “local news.”
61 years ago, the Voting Rights Act became law thanks to the hard work and perseverance of civil rights activists. This year, Trump’s Supreme Court gutted it. They are playing with the blood of our ancestors. Honor their legacy. Pass the John Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act.
Of course Fauci had to take the 5th on every question, & his lawyer,or any lawyer, would so insist. Once you start dancing with the devil on the color of the carpet or day of the week, you're on the path to a perjury trap. The outrage is so palpable given Fauci's exemplary record as a public servant
At a time when misconduct complaints involving DOJ lawyers have reached never-before-seen levels, Todd Blanche has shut down the DOJ's internal discipline agency. This means state bars should no longer defer to DOJ for misconduct investigations involving DOJ personnel.
I don't think the full Senate would green light the Fauci referral for contempt. Similar dynamic as with Blanche. But Paul thinks he has a parliamentary maneuver to bypass a full Senate vote; and all bets are off if the referral comes to DOJ. Anatomy of a gross injustice with Paul as Torquemada.
Since 2017 Trump has been running America into the ground, grifting everywhere, & cozying up to dictators. Republicans are complicit. He only cares about himself, money, & power. "Hope is the ability to see there is light despite all the darkness" - Desmond Tutu. Vote blue on 11/3/2026!

I'd love to credit whoever wrote this. No idea. But I'm 100% with its message. When I think of how the '80s ethos, "Greed is Good" has metastasized, it surprises and depresses me. Imagine having so many millions, hundred of millions, even billions & caring about nothing except your own vanity.
What’s happening is that America’s liberal majority is fed up with being told they need to hold the center while the political right moves more and more to the extreme. The status quo is everything getting worse, and they’re over it.

“The nation’s crisis in maternity care and newborn health is concentrated in the countryside—and federal policy is about to make that crisis significantly worse,” Keith Humphreys argues:
Rural America’s Maternal-Health Crisis Is About to Get Much Worse
Care will be in shorter supply, travel distances will stretch farther, and high-risk situations will more likely result in tragedy.

Jorge Laurel@jorgelaurel.com · yesterdayAn AI agent tried to insert malicious code into a real open source project during a UK AISI evaluation. Fake identities, social engineering, edited history to cover its tracks. None of it prompted. It failed because one maintainer refused to merge unsolicited code.
in 2016 Elon Musk said he would build a fully automated factory in Fremont, California for the upcoming Model 3 and he then spent on the order of $2 billion on production lines that didn't work, forcing Tesla to assemble cars by hand in a tent but sure, now he's gonna do it on the moon
