She's expected to testify under oath to Congress in a few weeks. How likely is it that this is to remove her from that situation? Would she still be forced to testify if she no longer was AG?

🧵🧵🧵 TRUMP'S BRAIN IS BROKEN 🧵🧵🧵 This thread offers 50 examples of unhinged behavior unfit for the presidency. 1. Trump blamed Rob Reiner for his own murder, citing “the anger he caused others” by criticizing Trump. 2. He told a rally that dead golfer Arnold Palmer had a large penis.

"Trump is just doing what Obama did, & no one complained back then!" Given that this is a central talking point MAGA is using to reach people outside their hardcore base, it would be useful if a proper journalistic outlet addressed this comparison in an evidence-based way. I haven't seen one yet.

Demolishing the East Wing of the White House before finalizing plans for what will be built above its ruins is a near-perfect metaphor for Trump's approach to economic policy. The only difference is the wrecking crew doesn’t claim the rubble is evidence of unprecedented growth.

IF YOU READ NO OTHER PORTION OF THE EPSTEIN FILES TRANSPARENCY ACT, read this one. EVERY SINGLE DOCUMENT THEY WITHHOLD has to be indexed, published in the Federal Register, and submitted to Congress with an explanation. And scroll down to understand why THEY ARE NOT PERMITTED TO WITHHOLD IT ALL.
Screengrab from the Epstein Files Transparency Act:

(2) REDACTIONS.-The Attorney General shall publish in the Federal Register and submit to Congress a written justification for each redaction under paragraph (1).

Welch: As someone who lives in a red state, let me just tell you what MAGA supermajorities get you. We're 50th in education. The worst in the whole country for women to live. We're poorer, worst health care. And if you look at the bottom ten states, they are all MAGA supermajorities.

So just to recap: 1. The reciprocal tariffs aren't reciprocal. The rates announced by Trump are unrelated to the tariffs charged by other countries. Imports from Brazil, which imposes relatively high tariffs, will face lower rates than countries that impose little or no tariffs on US goods.
