Lol. This. >>
The executive has encouraged the legislature to compel the executive to release files the executive holds and has chosen not to release despite calls from legislators. It's unclear whether the executive will veto the legislature's bill, whether the legislature will over-ride the

Kurt knows the answer to his own question but would rather make vague disparaging comments like this about the victims than care about accountability for the perps.
So what are the names of these men that abuse them? Why don’t they tell us?

This was my first thought as well.
Coons on Epstein files: "My hunch is that Attorney General Bondi, having just been ordered on social media by the president to open an investigation into a series of high-profile Democrats, will promptly say, 'No, there's an ongoing investigation, we can't disclose any of this,'

That Fed study shows that tariffs represent an adverse demand shock that overwhelms the adverse supply shock. One raises inflation; the other lowers inflation. BOTH SHOCKS RAISE UNEMPLOYMENT.

I won’t pretend to know if she’s sincere or not. I will say this is unique. When was the last time a politician admitted a criticism was fair and humbly apologized? We need more of this. From both parties.
BASH: We have seen these attacks from the president at other people. It's not new. And I haven't heard you speak out about it until it was directed at you. MARJORIE TAYLOR GREENE: I think that's fair criticism. And I would like to say, humbly, I'm sorry for taking part in the

ESPN+ continues to suck. Streaming isn’t new technology any longer. How does this continue to be the worst streaming service? @espn

Trump lowering tariffs on certain imports (as his poll numbers sink) is just further proof that none of this is about a national emergency.

There is no negotiating of insurance prices. He literally doesn’t understand how things work.
TRUMP: We’re going to give Americans the money to buy health insurance REPORTER: But won’t they buy it from Insurance companies? TRUMP: Ahhh. Some may. I mean they’ll be negotiating prices

“By admitting that lowering tariffs will lower prices for U.S. consumers, the Trump administration is acknowledging what economists have pointed out all along: tariffs raise prices,” said Erica York. https://t.co/7fVLgMSgJy via @WSJ

Yep. And this is probably a rosey version of the math. Likely to be a higher premium on the 50 year mortgage than .25%. (John says this as well.) It's a terrible, terrible idea.
Quick math on $300k mortgage: 30 yr @ 6.25% vs 50 yr @ 6.5% Monthly payment: $1850 vs $1690 Equity in house after 10 years: $47k vs $11k Balance at year 30: $0 vs $227k Total payments to own house: $665k vs $1015k 0.25% premium on 50 yr is conservative. Numbers likely worse.

If and when the Epstein files get released, remember that Epstein’s clients weren’t under investigation. They were investigating Epstein and Maxwell. There probably is far less direct evidence on the clients than many are assuming. Including Trump.

I’ve said this a few times now. The GOP “solution” is to go back to pre ACA. Which was ALSO a broken system. It will be interesting to see if they actually put up a bill that takes away healthcare for millions of their own voters.
Tom Emmer: "You're gonna have to create high risk pools again. Just go back where Minnesota was before the ACA."

Fifty-year mortgage is a desperate and misguided effort to get more people into homeownership without addressing the actual shortage of homes. https://t.co/n3RQnQztsF

Folks. It’s really not a good thing that a White House puts out such easily debunked garbage. Daily. Every word here is a lie. I don’t know how we come back from this.
Tariff revenues SMASH records—slashing the U.S. deficit by over 25%! Shrinking government spending, downsizing bloated bureaucracy, and unleashing a wave of American jobs. 🔥

In response to a 2017 email describing Trump as “so gross,” Jeffrey Epstein replied that he was “worse in real life and upclose.”

Epstein on Trump. This would be hilarious if Trump wasn’t currently running / ruining the greatest country in the world.
