Let’s not forget the biggest reason to reject Blanche as U.S. Attorney General: his role in tormenting Epstein survivors to serve his boss’s personal interests.
It doesn’t matter what Todd Blanche promises to do to get the votes…
He’s a POS just like Trump, and they will find a bullshit loophole….
I’m sure he already has a crooked plan to get around any “deal” with the 2 holdouts in the Senate.
The president is a rapist and a pedophile who ran teen beauty pageants and was best friends with Epstein and he’s fine with men beating their wives and he lost a war and raised all your prices and stole billions of dollars but 34% of Americans still think he’s peachy keen because they’re racist.
Phang: "Think about what could be done if the FBI was deployed to really follow the investigative leads that have come out of even these bullshit redactions that we have in the Epstein files right now."
However horrible you think the Tate brothers are, I promise, it's worse than that. It's insane that Dems aren't making a bigger deal of the GOP embracing these grotesque monsters.
James Talarico on Texas officially banning THC:
“Texans aren’t going to stop smoking weed and eating edibles because politicians in Austin say so.
We are now telling full-grown adults how to live their lives. This is the nanny state at its worst; this is big government at its worst."
Padilla co-wrote a bill that would let the public sue a sitting president to recover money taken through corruption.
Yes, a sitting president.

By inviting someone as deranged as RFK Jr on to her already flawed platform on CNN propaganda, Dana Bash gave him permission to spread disgusting dangerous lies as well as permission to yell at her and insult her on her own program. 10 years later and she has learned nothing.
Katie Phang vows to release the Epstein files if her lawsuit is successful: "The law was to benefit everyone -- especially the victims and survivors of Epstein, Maxwell and others, who continue to get the stiff arm, short thrift asshole treatment by Todd Blanche."
Sanders: Look at what Mamdani is doing and contrast that with Trump.
Trump cuts funding for child care.
Mamdani thinks we should have free, universal child care.
Who do you think is on the side of the American people on these issues?
Donald Trump's health is deteriorating and the coverup isn't fooling anybody. Rick Wilson discusses how Trump's team are desperately hiding his frailty on The Trump Report.
NEWS: Trump-backed GOP Rep. Max Miller just delivered a “special address” denying the domestic abuse allegations made by his ex-wife and affirmed he will not drop out of his race.
His statements were grotesque.

If a nominee for AG (Blanche) begins the confirmation process and can’t get the votes, we need a law that prohibits that nominee from serving as “acting” AG.
There is no difference other than the title.
Katie Phang on Trump’s tax immunity deal: Why not agree to narrow language limiting immunity to conduct before the settlement?
Because Trump wants to keep criming.
And his refusal to relent tells me there’s smoke, fire, kerosene, wildfires. There’s something there Trump doesn’t want exposure for.
Dina Doll on the judge ordering Trump hand over a staggering amount of financial information in his BBC defamation lawsuit: "This was a man who was not even willing to hand over one tax return ... this is exactly how people should be defending each and every lawsuit that Trump brings against them."
Republicans trying to grandstand in 2026 makes me want to throw up.
You are the party of pedophile-protecting, world war starting, gas prices raising, ballroom-obsessed criminals.
Kindly shut the fuck up.
We are committing war crimes. We have no idea if the people in those boats are smugglers, hostages, fisherman, or anything else. We are killing them and have even double tapped survivors instead of rescuing them. These are war crimes...and for what? No change in price or availability of the drugs.
