So proud of my friend and fellow Welsh Pembroke Corgi owner @andrewfeinberg.com for asking this question: “What was the president doing with Virginia Giuffre for hours at Epstein's house?"

If **Jeffrey Epstein** thinks you're a evil and demented sociopath, the odds are overwhelming that you are, in fact, an evil and demented sociopath.

Everyone thinks they will be the exception. Serious illness or disability won’t happen to them and IF it does, they will be able to afford it. The reality is it only takes one catastrophic event to change your life, especially in a country that doesn’t guarantee healthcare for all.

He did not take any questions. Wonder why.

By the way, this is from the guy who called himself “Trump’s closest friend.” 😂

A performative lie from @RepTimBurchett, who said he was for releasing the Epstein files but didn’t sign the petition to please Trump — now tries to save face with procedural games. Truly pathetic.

Reporter: Can you respond to these Epstein emails that were released today? Trump: *no answer*

Something absolutely perfect about Larry Summers riffing about the scourge of woke cancel culture being unfair to predatory men in a friendly email to his pal JEFFREY EPSTEIN.

NOW: Voting is underway on the shutdown deal in the House. So far, dems Gluesenkamp Perez, Adam Gray, and Jared Golden have voted yes. So the dems couldn't get unanimity on this in the House, either.

BREAKING: U.S. House approves bill to end government shutdown, sending it to Trump's desk

The Kremlin disguised a nearly $100 mn payment to Trump in the form of a brokered real estate deal... and both Jeffrey Epstein and William Pulte were involved in the deal. That's very interesting.

Rep. Adelita Grijalva called Mike Johnson blocking her swearing in "an abuse of power."   "One individual should not be able to unitaterally obstruct the swearing in of a duly elected member of Congress."

My takeaway from every new Epstein revelation is that some powerful people victimized many powerless young women, many more knew, some actively enabled it--and we're still being told that MeToo and accountability for sexual violence have gone too far

If it’s a ‘hoax,’ why so much panic every time it’s mentioned?

And the Netherlands is among the most interesting bc the SVR docs that Kash and Tulsi have been releasing on a weekly basis were theirs.

the newly released Epstein emails are getting coverage on Fox News 👀

just opening up the new Epstein docs at random:

WOW! PHILADELPHIA (AP) — US Mint ends production of the penny, its lowest denomination coin, in cost-saving move.

One of the GOP's sweatier Epstein defenses has been "if they had good stuff they'd have used it when Biden was president." But the growing awareness that Garland spiked anything that could look political explains this!

Yeah whoever jacked up tariffs on coffee from Brazil earlier this year must be a real bonehead

Having an inarticulate man who has never been in a grocery store give an inaccurate speech to people who are in grocery stores all the time that is full of easily disproven lies about how grocery prices are going down isn't a winning "affordability" strategy.

"The opinion also states that drug cartels are selling drugs to finance a campaign of violence and extortion, according to four people." That would be remarkable, since it's not how drug cartels work. They use violence to protect their business--selling drugs. www.washingtonpost.com/national-sec...

One of the great myths about Trump that MAGAs won't let go of is that he was a great businessman. Except all evidence reveals he was a complete failure. But facts don't matter to MAGAs.

In case you were wondering why the government was shut down:

It begins. Clearly incriminating evidence against president of the United States. Epstein to Maxwell, April 2, 2011: "i want you to realize that that dog that hasn't barked is trump. [VICTIM] spent hours at my house with him ,, he has never once been mentioned. police chief. etc."

NEW: 2020 footage said to be in 2025. A neighbor who keeps reappearing in the same clip, said to be on different days & months. A broadcast from elsewhere suggested as Portland. How Fox News misled its viewership -- which may have included the president. www.propublica.org/article/port...

MORE DOCUMENTS obtained by Oversight’s subpoena of Jeffrey Epstein’s estate include communications between Epstein and Steve Bannon, Larry Summers, and others. Take a look: oversightdemocrats.house.gov/sites/evo-su...

NEW: ProPublica examined months of Fox News’ coverage and reviewed over 700 videos posted on social media. The network used five-year-old footage, mislabeled other dates and implied footage from elsewhere was in Portland.

The IRS is a tax agency we have to interact with, and also a key means that a lot of safety net programs (EITC, CTC) are delivered. Since Trump took over, the IRS has *lost 3/4ths of agency leadership *one quarter of employees *is now on its 8th leader New leader has no experience, also leading SSA

Excellent piece from @mirandayaver.bsky.social “In practice, HSAs tend to benefit people w/ higher incomes… Furthermore, researchers…find that HSAs do not significantly benefit those who struggle with health care costs, and…they exacerbate the racial disparities the ACA has effectively reduced.”

McGovern: Seriously, we were worried. We actually started handing out missing person posters. Nobody has seen you for eight weeks. But, hey, I'm glad that you are ok. I'm glad you survived your nice, two-month paid vacation

Utility costs have risen 11% in the last year as Trump has promoted fossil fuels and curbed investment in solar and wind power. Climate change is an affordability issue.

#BREAKING: Over a public dissent from Justice Jackson, #SCOTUS *extends* the temporary pause of the district court’s order that had mandated full SNAP payments for November—keeping that ruling (and those payments) on hold through the end of the day this Thursday:

For my love of Children & Dogs Timeline Cleanse Sweetness

“But it’s now clear Trump doesn’t even understand why healthcare relies on insurance, why we can’t pay medical expenses out of pocket. Hint: You never know when you’ll need expensive treatment, but should the need arise, only the ultra-wealthy can come up with the cash.”

Next time Donny 2 Dolls brags about the stock market: Ranked against dozens of other countries’ indexes, the S&P’s annual performance so far is not even among the world’s top 20…30…40…S&P’s relative performance this year is remarkably out of line with historical norms www.nbcnews.com/business/mar...

They’ve laid off so many people that the government is now getting its economic data from DoorDash.

Clark: So what are we doing here today? You have already voted to dismantle medicaid, the largest health care program in America. A program that covers 40% of all births in this country. 40% of children in this country. 40% of disabled people in this country.

1 in every 130 cases of breast cancer are in men. Men have breast tissue. Men even have mammary glands and can get ductal cancers. 3,000 men each year may not sound like much, but it's everything if you're one of them or love one.

DeLauro: The president went to the supreme court to deprive kids of food. Unbelievable. And now wants to deny their parents healthcare.

The Supreme Court extended on Tuesday a temporary ruling that allowed the Trump administration to withhold full food stamp benefits while Congress worked to advance a measure to end the government shutdown.

Raskin: If this were to pass, this astounding provision would give eight Republican senators a personal payday of at least a million dollars each, paid for by the U.S. Taxpayers at a time when we are throwing millions of people off of their health care…

WATCH — @repstevenhorsford.bsky.social : “My amendment would redirect that $40 BILLION from Argentina to fund the ACA subsidies for two years… a far better use of taxpayer dollars.” Why do we have money for Argentina while our own people lose their health care? How does this make us great?

🔥 @RepJoeNeguse: “Most of 🇺🇸 will find this REPUGNANT. These senators are guaranteeing themselves million-dollar paydays.” Bipartisan horror at @SenatorHagerty & @MarshaBlackburn’s greedy money grab snuck inside the funding bill— rewarding themselves for getting investigated.

(WSJ) - U.S. nonfarm payrolls likely shrunk by 50,000 roles in October, economists at Goldman Sachs said. @wsj.com www.wsj.com/livecoverage...

"I am tired of losing and worse, I am tired of expecting to lose. We need Democrats who will use their positions of power not to constantly capitulate, compromise, and cave, but to fight-- not to say the word ‘fight’ because it’s the popular thing to do, but to actually do it and mean it."

🚨 NEW: ADP report: U.S. LOST an average of 11,000 jobs per week in October 2025. Let’s compare, shall we: In 2024, the economy ADDED about 2.2 million jobs in 2024 — an average monthly GAIN of 186,000. From steady climb to sudden slide.

Amendment which strikes section which “allows senators who were legally subpoenaed during the January 6 criminal conspiracy investigation to get millions of dollars deposited into their bank accounts at taxpayer expense” voted down by Republicans

No. I do not trust this “calmer” MTG. There is an agenda.

being told “thank you for licking my boots” by your interview subject should be embarrassing right?
