Good evening to all who remember Democratic presidential front runner Gary Hart having to drop from the race after being photographed with an attractive younger woman.

Google Sides with ICE "Google is hosting a Customs and Border Protection (CBP) app that uses facial recognition to identify immigrants, and tell local cops whether to contact ICE about the person, while... removing apps designed to warn local communities about the presence of ICE officials."

Another trip down memory lane re: the Grand Old Pedophiles "A bipartisan House Ethics Committee investigation later determined there was substantial evidence that he had sex with the 17-year-old and the report included testimony from the girl about how she was paid by Mr. Gaetz for the sex." NYT

Just a little reminder - "Donald Trump’s Name in Jeffrey Epstein Files Redacted by FBI" - Newsweek

So what will Hillary think if emails bring down Trump?

Channeling the mood of the country

Remember this?

Holy shit. Exclusive: Trump administration holds Situation Room meeting with Boebert over House effort to force release of all of DOJ’s Epstein files - CNN

We're talking about it now!

🚨 "Trump himself called Boebert, regarding her signing onto the Epstein petition and spoke to her yesterday, I am told" New York Times correspondent Annie Karni

✅ "A woman wearing a "47" gold embroidered ball cap... and surgically enhanced “pouty lips” asked to meet my St Bernard dog and take her picture. I said NO. If you don’t share my values of common decency I will not share my St Bernard with you. I protect my dogs from cruelty." tinyurl.com/3mxjw67d

"It is unconscionable that what we are debating right now is legislation that will give 8 senators over $1 million a piece & we're robbing people of their food assistance & healthcare to pay for it. How can we vote to enrich ourselves by stealing from the American people?" AOC

Is this even a question? "The marathon House Rules Committee on Tuesday night erupted after a Democratic lawmaker accused Republicans of using the eight-week government shutdown to take a vacation."

Damn. It must be bad. Bondi, Blanche, & Patel meet w/ Boebert at W.H. "ahead of her Epstein vote"

Rep. Adelita Grijalva has officially signed the Epstein discharge petition. There are now 218 votes. A full vote must come to the floor.

Mace and Boebert saying they are still all in on the discharge petition.

Jeffrey Epstein email to Ghislaine Maxwell

Just a reminder that the discharge petition for the Epstein files carries no legal weight.

CHACO CHuck Always Chickens Out

"Bon appétit"

‼️A Long Island jury awarded $112 Million to 674 immigrants who were unlawfully held by county police so they could be handed over to ICE.

"Taking care of our veterans is a cost of war. If you can spend six trillion dollars sending people to war, you can spend a few billion dollars taking care of them when they come home." Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.)

When you kick health care issues down the road, people die.

Remember the 2021 Mar-a-Lago cache of documents Trump made off with? Could he have included some of the Epstein files and destroyed those before the search? Talk me down.

👀 Jeffries: SCOTUS is Corrupt "The outrageous behavior by individual justices like Clarence Thomas and Justice [Samuel] Alito, and the failure to have an ethical code of conduct, is corrupt. These are the only people in the country who can operate above the law,” Hakeem Jeffries

🚨 Supreme Court: Kim Davis must pay $360,000 for denying marriage licenses

"I would rather get (the Pres Medal of Freedom). People who get the Congressional Medal of Honor are often horribly wounded or dead. They're often dead. When you get the Presidential Medal of Freedom it is usually for other things, like you have achieved great success." - Trump Happy Veterans Day!

Democrats executed the removal of a sitting president as their presidential nominee in 2024. Surely they could do the same with a totally inept senate minority leader in 2025.

Every senator - including Democrats - supported unanimous consent to move the surrender bill forward. "After invoking cloture 60-40, the Senate agreed by unanimous consent to waive the 30-hour debate period and move directly to a final vote, which passed 60-40 late Sunday." - Rueters

Well..

My mother and father served admirably in World War 2. They loved their country and recognized the necessity of war on rare occasion. But they never glorified war, never failed to remember it's horrors, and never forgot in a war it was those with the least who suffered most. Thank you Vets.

At her swearing in, Adelita Grijalva should invite Epstein victims or their advocates, immediately sign and brandish the discharge petition for Epstein files, and state "This delay protected pedophiles—now let's release the Epstein files for the American people"

Props to Rep Khanna. This needs to spread among our Congressional Democrats. “Senator Schumer is no longer effective and should be replaced. If you can’t lead the fight to stop healthcare premiums from skyrocketing for Americans, what will you fight for?” Ro Khanna

🚨 Johnson Will Swear In Adelita Grijalva Speaker Mike Johnson plans to swear in Rep.-elect Adelita Grijalva (D-AZ) before the House votes on a government funding package, Punchbowl News reports.

Schumer's approval ratings among **Democrats** is lower than Trump's overall. Let that sink in.

Afraid so.

Any congressperson critical of the surrender but won't call on Schumer to resign can STFU

Good luck getting up a third No Kings rally when it has been demonstrated our leadership is always ready to wave the white flag.

Don't buy the line that a handful of Democrats have caved on the shutdown. They were given the go-ahead by Schumer.

Feckless cowards.

If you realize Democratic votes are needed to end the shutdown, you should realize negotiations are needed with said Democrats. Continually voting on a doomed bill is just theatre.

The Nod-father.

Nap-oleon.
