Incredible nonsense from John Cornyn. True, the harm to Epstein’s victims can’t be remedied by a “no” vote. But why should Blanche’s corrupt cover-up of the Epstein files—in violation of a Congressional mandate(!)—be rewarded by “yes”? Can’t get any more craven than this.

Cornyn justifies his support for Blanche: "That's one of those things that can't be remedied by a 'no' vote"

Donald Trump promised he'd "take care" of Los Angeles firestorm survivors. 18 months later, he's flying back to LA. Not to help, but to host a fundraiser at his golf club. Do the right thing, Mr. President.

Peddling demonstrably false BS claims about crime rates in DC, Trump said, “It was a graffiti-filled, crime-filled mess. We turned it into Shangri-La.” It was an interesting choice of metaphors, since Shangri-La is a place that only exists in fiction! www.ms.now/rachel-maddo...

What Trump doesn’t (but should) understand about crime in Washington, D.C.

The president said he turned the nation’s capital “into Shangri-La.” It was an interesting choice of metaphor, since Shangri-La is totally made-up.

A 60 Minutes probe into Epstein's banking, with Wyden already interviewed, vanished right after Sharyn Alfonsi got pushed out under Bari Weiss. Same editor who stalled the CECOT migrant story until Stephen Miller got a say. CBS keeps calling it timing. Sure looks like a pattern.

60 Minutes Epstein Banking Story Vanished After CBS Ousted Sharyn Alfonsi, Dem Senator Reveals

Wyden revealed he was interviewed for the show in a Senate report alleging the country's largest banks turned “a blind eye” to Epstein's financial activity

Gill: All 100 senators last week passed a non-binding resolution condemning any pardon for Ghislaine Maxwell. They're simultaneously considering confirming the guy who met with her and moved her to a low-security facility as the top cop in the United States. That is so insane to me.

⚡️US stocks of ATACMS, Precision Strike missiles at rock bottom after 'virtually all' used in Iran war, Reuters reports. Reuters' sources said the dramatic depletion may result in riskier bomber missions needed to strike targets that would otherwise be hit from a safe distance.

We’ve been saying this for a while now many of the people being targeted are just fishermen. Evidence now supports that the United States has killed individuals who were not involved in drug trafficking during its “counternarcotics interdiction operations” in the Caribbean and Pacific.

Maybe instead of labels, we just have candidates who are passionate about what they are campaigning on? Instead of trying to be someone for everyone? Maybe honest and principled? IMHO, Trying to win over middle Right is not a winning strategy. How about appealing to some of the 85m who didn’t vote?

Judge Emmet Sullivan got the Epstein files but the email addresses and the names of the sender are still redacted, claiming that the senders are victims. I'm waiting for the judge to demand the full release.

I worked for New York’s largest medical center at the start of the pandemic. There were morgue trucks on the streets. They set up emergency medical tents in Central Park. Healthcare worker colleagues died. It is horrific that RFK Jr is on national TV lying that ICUs were empty.
