i should add- breaking the collarbone of a baby who is the granddaughter of a REPUBLICAN US SENATOR is not a bridge too far for republicans. max miller is the villain in this story but bernie moreno looks like a feckless loser, allowing his party to carry on this way. what a pathetic bunch.

Well…yes. You CAN rein in the president. Try…reading the Constitution and CHECKING the executive. My God.
Cornyn: "There's nothing we could do to rein in the president"
Why do they always try to keep abuse "in the family"? They purport themselves to be protectors and are hunting "the worst of the worst", then one of their own beats his wife and kids and they're like, "Nah, this is a family matter. Nothing to see here." Just sweep it under the rug. 🙄
Jon Husted gave $2.5 billion in out-of-control tax breaks to giant corporations to bring 226 data centers to our state. Now, he’s blaming Ohioans for their higher utility bills.
Stop the false equivalence. No other President sued his own government to secure immunity for himself and his family, created a fund to reward cop beaters, and demanded prosecution of his political enemies. Trump’s weaponization of DOJ is unprecedented and you just endorsed it.
Tillis admits Trump is weaponizing the DOJ during his speech announcing he'll vote for Todd Blanche: "Maybe it's a little bit more intense in this administration than the last one ... I'm going to support Mr Blanche's nomination"
NOTE: The lawyer/law firm that represented Trump in his Capital One money laundering lawsuit is the same lawyer Judge Williams referred to the bar for disciplinary action in the bogus Trump IRS lawsuit that resulted in the slush fund and tax immunity.

“If this was true, I would be in jail” is not a real profession of innocence; it is a brag about how strenuously the state protects the male right of private sphere violence against women and children.
Those who believe things like this are working hard at not understanding the finite options available to someone whose abuser has not been prosecuted, found guilty, etc. by the law. And how rarely those things happen to abusers, esp. high-status white male abusers.
The GOP wants to repeal no-fault divorce & women's right to vote so that violent misogynists like Max Miller can un-person us fully: they want to own women, as rape toys & punching bags. We're the majority of the population. We already have fewer rights to bodily protection than corpses & animals.
Rep. Max Miller: "My former wife has claimed that during a custody exchange at my home that day, I assaulted her…If I had assaulted her, would she have offered to cook me dinner six days later?"
The overwhelming right wing sentiment is that COVID was an engineered bioweapon that was also harmless. Trump overreacted to it by shutting down the country, then engineered a drive to create a vaccine that was the real bioweapon that killed millions, and it's Joe Biden's fault.

I’m trying to reconcile Trump still owning Operation Warp Speed as a victory (which it was) with GOP claiming the vaccine killed millions of people. Isn’t the person to blame, then, Trump, not Fauci??
Reminder: everyone on American soil, whether they were born here or not, has the right to due process. Here’s everything you need to know.
Todd Blanche‘s confirmation vote may be off for this morning, but he still has an obligation to produce documents from the Epstein files today.
Judge Sullivan has given acting AG Todd Blanche 5 days to produce unredacted versions of some Epstein Files documents & proof that the reasons given for making the redactions were true. Here’s what’s significant about that: joycevance.substack.com/p/an-importa...
"A concentration camp, in its most basic definition, is a place where a targeted civilian population, not necessarily accused of a crime, is detained and at least some of their basic rights are suspended," writes @jwashing.bsky.social. "That’s precisely what’s happening in the United States today."
Don’t call them ICE detention centers. Call them camps | John Washington
I’ve spent a decade reporting on immigration enforcement. The word ‘camp’ best captures the political function of these facilities
theguardian.com
It's noteworthy that the sticking point in getting Todd Blanche confirmed as AG involves financial corruption rather than Blanche refusing to release files about the sex trafficking of children by Trump's former friend. To Republicans, money is always more important than the welfare of children.
Six weeks. 38 missed votes. No public word in his own voice. Beshear: address Kentucky or resign. McConnell won the seat in 1984 on an ad about a senator who didn't show up for work.
Republicans are trying to make the news cycle about anything other than Donald Trump and his incredibly unpopular domestic and foreign policy agenda. That’s why they set up this Fauci hearing. And everyone is taking the bait

Weird he can’t bring this kind of energy towards his colleague who is accused of beating up his daughter.

"Give me your tired, your poor, Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free, The wretched refuse of your teeming shore. Send these, the homeless, tempest-tost to me, I lift my lamp beside the golden door!" Lady Liberty, Mother of Exiles
Stephen Miller said just the other day that all asylum claims are "fake." A couple deported from the U.S. to Guatemala were gagged, bound, and shot dead. Their 14-month old found crying next to their mother's body. People like Miller don't care though because this is the point: ethnic cleansing.
