MADELEINE DEAN: Why did you lie to the New York Post about your relationship with Epstein?
LUTNICK: The House Oversight Committee and I agreed--
DEAN: Reclaiming my time. I do not accept that answer. We are our own committee. You're dodging the question. The coverup continues.
Rep Garcia: Howard Lutnick has consistently been all over the place when it comes to Jeffrey Epstein. He went into business with Epstein. He visited his island. He traveled with Epstein. He has to explain why he has continued to lie and be part of this massive White House coverup.

STEFANIK: President Trump didn't call for genocide, Jake. You are putting those words in his mouth
TAPPER: 'Your entire civilization will die'?
STEFANIK: It's the terrorist regime, Jake. He's targeting the terrorist regime
TAPPER: You're changing his words!
KERNEN: We'd never be able to send anyone back if you needed a judicial warrant every single time
RAND PAUL: Well, I don't think that's true. Obeying the 4th Amendment of the Constitution shouldn't be too difficult. It's something we fought the revolution over.
"What happened in Hungary is that Magyar, who's now going to be the prime minister, went out in the country and basically explained how the corruption and criminality affected people in their everyday lives. And that's what's happening here."
GAME CHANGER: Montana just found the "exit ramp" to kill Citizens United. They aren't waiting for the Supreme Court—they’re going around them. 74% of voters are on board and corporate lawyers are PANICKING. This is how we win. 🏔️💸 www.dworkinsubstack.com/p/army-secre...
BUTTIGIEG: The strait was open before they started this
KERNEN: They were close to having 11 nuclear weapons!
BUTTIGIEG: We had other ways of dealing with them
KERNEN: Like what? Obama's way?
BUTTIGIEG: That worked
KERNEN: That didn't work!
BUTTIGIEG: Did they get a nuclear weapon under Obama?
Love to see this: A new poll conducted in Hungary has shown that JD Vance's visit to Budapest caused Putin puppet Viktor Orbán's party to LOSE 3% of its support. ⬇️
NOW: B52 bombers are literally in the air on their way to Iran and hundreds of thousands of Iranians are in the streets waving flags and surrounding bridges & power plants.
Difficult to imagine this has any precedent in modern warfare.

A French general just looked at Trump’s plan to build a runway inside Iran to fly out uranium under active bombing.
His response: “American officials should stop snorting cocaine between meetings.”
Shuler: Rent is still too high. Your paycheck still doesn’t stretch to the end of the month, and you’re still worried that the boss—or the people running this country—don’t give a damn about your family.
We’re fed up with an economy that treats workers like an expense to be minimized
When Trump couldn’t get Congress to pass the SAVE Act to federalize elections, he just ignored Congress and signed an executive order.
Again.
And now we are back to the courts with more lawsuits.
Again.
Non-stop chaos is his brand.
MAGA holds a protest with a few thousand people in DC and they attack the capital and brutally assault police officers.
Millions upon millions of Democrats hold 3100+ protests nationwide without incident.
That tells you all you need to know.
Rand Paul:
“I just wonder if someone who applauds violence against their political opponents is the right person to lead an agency that has struggled to accept limits to the proper use of force.”
The entire confirmation hearing in one sentence.
There is literally no excuse for John Fetterman. He has betrayed every single person who's voted for him. Seriously, Fetterman, resign or switch parties.
Talarico on Trumpworld's "short term pain" talking point: "I'd like them to tell that to the parents of the American troops who have lost their lives. That is not short term pain. That is pain that will last forever ... no one asked for this."
McGowan: There's three people mentioned most in the Epstein files: Jeffrey Epstein, Ghislaine Maxwell and Donald Trump. But we're deposing Hillary Clinton?
I tuned in to the State of the Union, and saw nothing but a firehose of lies.
If the President won't tell you the state of the economy, I will: Here's an honest assessment of the (economic) state of the union. No reality TV gimmicks, just nerdy numbers.

This whole Epstein File episode has really brought home how much we’ve lost our empathy on a massive scale. There is actual evidence both documented and verified by survivors of horrific crimes. Committed by people at the highest levels. Yet not one of them has been punished.
Walz: "The federal government needs to pay for what they broke here. There's going to be accountability on things that happened, but one of them is the incredible and immense cost borne by the people of this state. The federal government needs to be responsible."
🚨BREAKING: Todd Lyons, the acting chief of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), has admitted to senators that federal immigration officers would have “no reason” to be at voting locations this November. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...
No wonder the orange toddler is unhinged once again.
The Obamas are competent, classy, loving, Harvard and Princeton graduates, loved by many, not on the Epstein files, got the Nobel Peace Prize, and gave us a steady economy to boot.
Repost this if you agree they are AMAZING and an inspiration!

There has to be an investigation into the many individuals who committed heinous crimes alongside Epstein.
There should be a special prosecutor, or a congressional investigation, that looks into the crimes and the ongoing cover-up. It has to happen.
"Every day, I wake up and see the news and I'm horrified. I think it is crazy that some people make it sound like it's acceptable, like the murder of civilians is acceptable." - Victor Wembanyama says about the killings in Minnesota

Eric Garcia: Should Kristi Noem resign?
Murkowski: I voted for her. I would not support her again, and I think it’s probably time for her to step down.
