OR keep them out of session until after the election. Really weird that no one really gives a damn about the Epstein files just that it continues to agitate Trump and MAGA.

It’s become crystal clear, Speaker Johnson doesn’t want Congress to come back in session because they don’t want the Epstein files released.

Stop the shutdown - release the files!

Wow! She's starting to sound like a Democrat. Real facts are a hard thing to ignore. They will hit you in the face.

A lot of Canadian baseball fans are sad today. It was rude of the Seattle Mariners to visit in Toronto to play the first two games of the ALCS series and beat the hometown team two times in a row. Keep up the good work, guys. You're awesome to watch play.

There's no "regular politics" anymore because you can no longer maintain the idea that we all agree on common goals but we only differ about the means of getting there or whatever. The guys in charge now are plainly amoral, sadistic nihilists. They delight in it! You can't civilly disagree with that

The future of the Democratic Party must be rooted in investing in the American people — not Wall St., corporations, and consultants.

Otherwise, Trumpism will continue to use cynicism, racism, and distrust to divide America.

So if Russ Vought and Bob Kennedy were deliberately trying on behalf of an enemy to sicken and kill Americans by destroying the public health structure - what would they be doing differently?

On this date, Matthew Shephard died 27 years ago. He was beaten, tortured, and left for dead on fence for being gay. Please keep him and his wonderful mother Judy in your thoughts. And let's all work for a world where such horrific things do not happen to anyone. ❤️🏳️‍🌈

Pam Bondi gets uglier with every clip of her I see. People lying...when everyone knows they are lying...yet they do it anyway...they're the most repulsive thing you can ever see. That feeling of being repulsed...and what you are looking at...when you feel that way...fuse... permanently.

The mainstream media loves making it seam like dysfunction in Washington is coming from both parties.

Hello?

Much of the GOP no longer accepts the rule of law, or the norms of democracy, or the legitimacy of the opposing party.

Enough of the false equivalence.

Now they've improved intersection flow even more with flashing yellow left turn signals. Warns people just in turn lanes that the light is changing and proceed with caution.

Oh The Urbanity! @ohtheurbanity.bsky.social · 2d

Can you believe that most cities in the US and Canada, with only a few exceptions, allow cars to turn right despite having a red light?

Trump used to ask "where my Roy Cohn?". We can ask "where's our John Wilkes Booth?"
