No - the strongest case was a contempt of court case. 20 days to prosecute. He didn’t’t do it.

With all these extrajudicial boat murders, we have a president who is not only an adjudicated rapist, but also an unapprehended serial killer.

*The president is all powerful and can fire civil servants, impound spending, redirect money and deploy troops despite numerous constitutional and legal restrictions but he can't spend emergency money for food stamps set aside specifically for shutdowns* is all-time amazing messaging.

Today, Mike Johnson will keep the House adjourned for the 91st day out of the last 103.

12 days of work in 103 days.

With full pay and benefits.

The senate has been working, so this is not about the shutdown.

It is about avoiding a vote to release the Epstein files.

Carney needs money for his new economy budget. Trans mountain pipeline is worth 35B$. It is profitable. Force the CPPIB and the other public service pension plans to buy it. If Carney can’t make that happen he is neither a visionary nor a practical manager of the economy.

Let's just lay it out. Epstein was a glorified pimp who used and sold the services of children to the wealthy, the elite, and the powerful. His clients will destroy anything and everything to stay hidden. They will even starve poor people. They have no bottom and no conscience.

Andrew Tate has been charged with rape, human trafficking, controlling prostitution and actual bodily harm. Nigel Farage described him as "an important voice for young men". That tells you all you need to know about Farage's moral compass.

Amazon is helping fund a $300 million build of a ballroom for the White House.

Independent bookstores are donating to food banks and organizations that help with food insecurity.

They are not the same.

Rogan: And when do you plan on doing this?

Musk: Hopefully before the end of the year.

Rogan: Before the end of this year? I mean we're almost November 1st.

Musk: Hopefully in a couple months. We need to make sure that it works. Like this is some crazy, crazy technology we got in this car.

Today, I joined the Journey to Justice tour with Unlock the Box and Look2Justice to say loud and clear:

Solitary confinement is torture.

I’m proud to reintroduce the End Solitary Confinement Act. We must end this cruel and dehumanizing practice once and for all.

While neither man is in jail, as they both should be, at least the UK took steps to penalize a child rapist, Prince Andrew, I mean, Mr. Windsor, whereas the United States continues to protect one, Donald Trump.

If Albertans don't stand up en masse NOW, Smith will continue to erode our right until we have none left. She has been running roughshod over us for yrs w no consequences. Enough is enough. General strike, now!

I went to the Senate floor to make the case for the resolution I lead with Senator Kaine to overturn the punishing Canadian tariffs. No way to treat an ally 🇨🇦 and no way to treat the American people.

It passed the Senate! The House needs to come back and act.

Families in New Bedford and across our Commonwealth are having hard conversations at the kitchen table because Donald Trump won’t come to the negotiating table. Now, Trump and MAGA Republicans are refusing to continue SNAP benefits. They own this hunger emergency.
