it is always kind of funny to encounter the "liberals have no theory of power" shibboleth from people who, in my experience, are not merely as far from understanding power--how to gain it and how to exercise it--as it is possible to be, but who do not seem to even *want* to gain and exercise power

Breaking News: The Justice Department did not release key records in the Epstein files about a woman who made an unverified accusation against Donald Trump. In 2019, the woman said she had been sexually assaulted by Trump and Jeffrey Epstein decades earlier, when she was a minor.

Documents released by the Justice Department briefly mention a woman’s unverified accusation that Donald J. Trump assaulted her in the 1980s, when she was a minor. But several memos related to her account are not in the files.

One of the key disagreements in a budget deal to reopen the government is whether the president can unilaterally ignore it — and what recompense there will be if he does. The GOP position is that he should have unlimited ability to ignore the deal, with no consequence. Wish I were exaggerating!

This means it's going to be a meeting about potential economic deals between the US and Russia (and very little about ending the war). This is Putin's plan B since he's correctly reading that the EU allies have already spoiled plan A. But deals are the way to Trump's heart so Putin will take it.
