Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

We can show the world that autocracy can be defeated.

Wow, you are pre-disappointed. How surprising.

Be a wild strawberry.

You passed on an opportunity to be offended? What are you even doing here?

I’m starting to think Jesus may have made a mistake saving people with no questions asked.

Yeah, with this crowd one never knows.

The revolution will be supervised.

Decision time: keep arguing about the last election, or try to win the next one?

If ‘weird’ was the finish line, they ran through the tape and kept running.

The press swings at every pitch, we don’t have to.

Fight for a just cause, love your fellow man, live a good life.

Within six months Twitter will be fully self-driving.

Second rate reporter says what?

Sadly, media malpractice has become standard practice.

Republicans in disarray!

We will not go quietly into the night; we will not vanish without a fight.

Finding joy where we can, and muddling through where we can’t.

They spent the last eight months firing professionals and replacing them with ideologues.

Let’s bury these fuckers at the polls 2 years from now.

U.S. House votes 427-1 to release the Epstein files!

Summary from The Guardian

  • The US House votes 427-1 to compel the justice department to release all of its Jeffrey Epstein files.
  • The bipartisan bill will now have to pass a Senate vote before President Donald Trump signs it into law.
  • Earlier, survivors of Epstein spoke at a news conference at the US Capitol – Annie Farmer says they have suffered “institutional betrayal” for years.
  • Speaking alongside the survivors, Republican congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene hits out at her former ally Trump.
  • Taylor Greene – whom Trump dubbed a “traitor” – says the Epstein issue has “ripped Maga apart”.
  • *Donald Trump called for his own party to vote to release the files, after weeks spent claiming the vote was a distraction led by the Democratic Party.
  • It comes after more than 20,000 pages of documents, some mentioning Trump, were the latest tranche to be released last week.
  • Trump has previously said he cut ties with Epstein many years ago, and he has always denied any link to Epstein’s sex abuse and trafficking.

Editor’s note (mine:

*Donald Trump called for his own party to vote to release the files, after weeks spent claiming the vote was a distraction led by the Democratic Party  CORRECTION:  after…  he realized that he was going to look like fool when at least 100 or more Republicans were going to vote to release the files.

What do you guys think the vote would have been if Trump hadn’t given the okay at the last minute?

I know we’ll never know, but it would be interesting to see what you all think.

I am confident the Rs have something up their sleeve that they think / hope / pray will keep the files from being released, but this is an unequivocally good step for these women, regardless of the obstruction that will sure be attempted going forward.
