The relentlessly opportunistic Marjorie Taylor Greene hasn't had a change of heart, much less politics. She is just literate enough to read the writing on the wall. She knows that Trump is damaged goods now. So she may have taken to singing like a bird, but she's really just a canary in a coal mine.

Trump has conned tens of millions of people after Fox News and other disinformation softened them up. But he’s actually a terrible liar who always tells on himself. And it’s clear he’s terrified now that the Epstein files and his old sex predator friend Ghislaine Maxwell will reveal the ugly truth.

In July, an FBI memo about the Epstein case said: “We did not uncover evidence that could predicate an investigation against uncharged third parties.” But in a desperate deflection today, Trump ordered AG Bondi to investigate Bill Clinton. She got right on it. These people make dirt look clean.

This isn’t just a sex trafficking scandal anymore. That would be bad enough, but now we know Epstein was sharing information with Putin. That makes it a national security issue. And Epstein had dirt on other politicians as well. How much of Congress is Putin controlling?
