    Still waiting on Ro Khanna to “draft” those charges against her.

    At this point I think he just likes to hear the sound of his own voice.

    If there’s no punishment, Congress is de facto saying that they do not consider it a crime - nor, implicitly, do they consider the events that the to-be-delivered documents detail to be crimes either.

    Seems like she’s unfit to do her job too. Get her out of there like Kristi Noem.

      Seems like she’s broken the law, and has not indicated when, if ever she will comply. Time for some consequences.

        I think that’s the thing that pisses me off most. Zero accountability. Everyone is a kiss ass to Trump and although the law exists, no one is upholding it.

              Yes, and your suggestion to me appears to be that there is nothing to be done, neighbor. I know you’ve got your own situations on the other side of the border, so I suppose you’ll attend to those. Funny thing about epidemics and authoritarianism, neither respects national borders. I’m wishing for the best for all of us, you, and me both. BTW I never suggested you do anything. Be well.

    Once this is over, and it will be over one day, what is going to happen with all these enablers that supported and protected trump, allowed him to continue his daily crimes and spread of hatred and violence, and just generally fucking up the world…?

    Are we going to allow a “person” like this to just walk freely after being co-responsible for all the death and destruction that they caused?

      Presidential pardon ofc. Unless he has no further use of them, then the right will use it as grand example how there’s no corruption because SOME didn’t get away!

    Everything bad for Trump happens at a fucking glacier’s pace, but whenever Trump wants to ruin immigrants or poor people’s lives it happens immediately.

    More occupation of cities. More invasions and threats of invasions. Anything but releasing the Epstein files.

    It’s weird to me how everyone basically assumes the Epstein files are not getting released because Donald Diddler and friends do not want to be outed as pedophiles, when additionally Epstein managed investment accounts for the private globally wealthy and world leaders…so there are like hordes of financial crimes being covered up as well.

    They don’t need a release date in the first place. They already released some of the files in small batches. And then they completely stopped without any explanation.

    So we can see what they do when they are releasing the files. They just release batches as they finish them.

    The fact that they aren’t doing that means that they intend to obstruct further progress on the release of the files.
