The Republicans specialize in feigned ignorance, lying through their teeth to excuse their behavior. But we can rest easy that some really are that ignorant. Gawd bless Tommy for keeping up the cause.

In the missing minute of that video, the cat pounces on, kills with a bite to the back of the neck, and eats - Jeffrey Epstein.

Gee, I thought Russia was a bastion of traditional Christian values.
Come to think of it, the pox IS a traditional Christian value.
Why HIV rates among Russian soldiers are soaring
Russia’s armed forces have suffered a surge of HIV infections during the war in Ukraine, which has been attributed to fatalistic soldiers having unprotected sex and using drugs. The number of HIV cases in the military has shot up since Russia’s invasion of Ukraine in early 2022, including a fivefold increase by autumn that year. By the end of 2023, there were 20 times more HIV diagnoses among Russian soldiers compared with before the war. The peak came during mobilisation, according to a

Does anyone really believe the manner in which Trump and his administration currently operate is sustainable for another 3-1/2 years? Every day feels like it’s ripe for the entire house of cards to fall. Every day. And we’re doing this for another 3-1/2 years? The center cannot hold.
First stanza:
Turning and turning in the widening gyre
The falcon cannot hear the falconer;
Things fall apart; the centre cannot hold;
Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world,
The blood-dimmed tide is loosed, and everywhere
The ceremony of innocence is drowned;
The best lack all conviction, while the worst
Are full of passionate intensity.

According to a damning Bloomberg Law piece, Bill Essayli, Trump’s interim US Attorney in Los Angeles, said “fuck the Justice Manual” in response to questions from line attorneys about his pursuit of indictments against anti-ICE protesters.
Well, Bill. You saying “fuck the Justice Manual” is exactly how Grand Juries turn you into No Bill Essayli. They get the last word, not you.

“While Senate Dems Forge Ahead” without any discussion of the rights of victims who may be named or even shown on video if the Epstein files are released in full with no redactions, like Schumer wants.
I don’t get it. Either Schumer and the other Dems in the Senate have seen what’s in the files and there is basically nothing there, or they’re assuming this effort to use an obscure rule will be blocked by Trump’s DOJ.

The files are not that important. Democrats should push for a nationally televised speech under oath where Skanky describes all the pedo activities involving children and girls, all predatory activities involving women without their consent, clarify whether he dated his daughter, and come clean on all crimes. We should recognize that he is the above law and free to engage in pedo and any other activities given the office he has. American voters will worship him with even more admiration if he has the courage to describe the activities in detail and comes clean.
