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.

A paramilitary group plotted to overthrow the Constitution then conducted a violent attack on America. They were convicted in court of seditious conspiracy, and jailed. Then the leader they aimed to illegally install got power and let them out, their records wiped clean. The Jan. 6 attackers won.
Judge Pained as He Grants Dismissal of Jan. 6 Charges Against Oath Keepers
The judge, Amit P. Mehta, blasted the administration’s request for a dismissal in the case, saying it bestowed “unearned grace” on the Oath Keepers defendants “by wiping their records clean.”

SEN. COONS: The combination of Trump administration actually imposing sanctions on Russia, buyers of Russian oil and sanction evaders, and giving Ukraine the Patriot PAC-3 interceptors they need and deserve, could resolve this war in a matter of weeks, if not months at the most.
Before the Senate breaks to go home to campaign, it needs to pass the Lindsey Graham Sanctioning Russia and Iran Act to help Ukraine and punish Russia and Iran at no cost to taxpayers. Time to act is now, then the House in September when it returns. 🇺🇸🇺🇦 www.ourrepublicanlegacy.com/post/our-rep...

You are correct, I stand corrected. But because he's not in the closet. I can't figure out why he has a job under Trump.

More than 50 people have died in ICE custody since Trump took office January 20, 2025, and those are just the ones we know of.
Wow. If this isn’t the mentality of Trump’s party in a sound bite I don’t know what is.
Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · yesterdayCornyn: "There's nothing we could do to rein in the president"
The idea that a war only exists if there are casualties does not appear in the text of the Constitution. Nor does it appear in Madison’s notes on the Constitutional convention debates. Nor is there evidence it was discussed in ratification debates. It is made up.
Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · yesterdaySen. Rand Paul: "I've had the debate with this administration ... they told me this isn't a war. I said, why isn't it a war? They said, 'Well, a constitutional war has to have significant casualties' ... initiation or declaration of war is *before* the casualties."
If we weren't so broken, divided and led by corrupt rapists, this would be the biggest story of the week. But barely a blip. apnews.com/article/trum...

Very cool we have an 80 year old president who proudly displays his ability to discern reality from the Oval Office, a condition worsened by a bubble of sycophants and his struggles with AI

The only time Trump played a golf tournament where he couldn't cheat, the American Century Celebrity Tournament in 2006 at Edgewood Tahoe Golf Course in Stateline, Nevada., he shot 52 over par in 3 rounds and finished in 62nd place out of 80 celebrities.
Ron Filipkowski@ronfilipkowski.bsky.social · 6d agoHow come Trump has won every golf tournament held at one of his own courses but has never won one on any other courses?
The president is a despot who disgraces the office he holds only temporarily in stewardship on behalf of the American people.

The hilarious thing about this slam on Jeanine Pirro is that Donald Trump *quite famously* doesn’t know how to fold an umbrella.

If Congress did its job, Todd Blanche would be out of a job. Blanche’s seashells “threat” case against James Comey is the clearest vindictive prosecution we’ve ever seen. By confirming Blanche as AG, Congressional Republicans are endorsing Trump’s weaponization of DOJ.
A BIG disclosure in a lawsuit brought by Trump against Capital One reveals the bank closed more than 300 of Trump’s accounts in 2021 after a months-long anti-money laundering review by professionals with decades of law enforcement experience. I explain the details here: youtu.be/YDTqowVWjfc?...
