Yes, the 'Discovery' associated with a lawsuit would open the Epstein files! Ted Lieu knows this.

Tim Snyder: The term that I came up with… is superpower suicide. I just can’t see an example of a major country losing so much power so quickly as the United States under Trump. We’ve encouraged our enemies and we’ve made our allies not trust us.

That celebration may be a long time coming. We have to have Speaker Johnson seat the new members, then have the new members vote to put new legislation in place, which requires 60 Senate votes. Keep the champagne on ice...just in case.

A country of Rapists, Pedophiles, and Sexual Assaulters is disgusting. The GOP nominating and supporting them for election says a lot about the party. This 2024 rape case should be headline news, but Cornell shuts it down. How is this any different from Brett Kavanaugh?

Are we great yet? A very important part of this story is the effects from measles 5 years later. Archived link to page without paywall in comments. www.nbcnews.com/health/healt...

America had wiped out measles. Now babies are infected at birth.
Congenital measles has rarely been seen in the U.S. That’s changing as vaccination declines and more pregnant women become infected.

I respectfully disagree. I get horrible Poison Ivy rashes, and have learned how to get rid of them. You have to remove the oil from the skin. I use Tecnu Original once or twice per day. The other Tecnu products try to cut the itch without removing the oil. After cleaning with Tecnu, then Aveno.

One thing I find very depraved is that causing others pain gives the dopamine high. ICE anyone?

Native Plants @nativeplants1.bsky.social · 23/08/2026
Yes. Drugs and Cults both use dopamine receptors to give pleasure. This is why it is so hard for some people to leave the Trump Cult, or to understand that causing others pain is activating their dopamine receptors. www.youtube.com/watch?v=klYj...

Yalda, I have to disagree. Trump is one-of-a-kind. His behavior is not one-of-a-kind. He has worsening dementia. More ignorant, delusional, and detached from reality with worsening dementia. For those that voted for an amoral child rapist, 🖕.

Listen to Senator @vanhollen.senate.gov :  These CUTS to Medicaid & SNAP are a ticking time bomb, ready to blow up after the midterm elections. The architects of the "beautiful bill" which is an UGLY bill, knew how unpopular these cuts would be. People SHOULD know BEFORE they VOTE!

🚨Senator @welch.senate.gov : We have the money in this country for nutrition & healthcare but they're NOT the priority. CUTS to them was a way for Trump tax cuts to be, "paid for." The cuts go to the WEALTHY & CORPORATIONS, & PAID for it by taking away kids' nutrition programs.💔

Unfortunately, that stance will hurt women the most. Women usually are the ones who stop work to take care of the kids. Women earn less than men for the same work. Women have less saved for retirement. The fastest growth in homelessness: senior women who can't afford housing.
