Sen. Tom Barrasso goes on NBC yesterday to attempt to please his cult leader by spewing ridiculous reasons why Republicans should vote against releasing the Epstein files.

Then hours later Trump says they should all vote for it.

So I guess he’s now opposing Trump.

Please find below a chart from John Authers' daily note illustrating the surge in interest in US affordability.

He summoned Boebert to the Situation Room to pressure her to withdraw her name. Called Mace. Threatened Massie and Greene. Now he knows it will pass and he’s trying to save face. But he also knows it may die in the senate and DOJ intends to cite a new “pending investigation” to block it.

Them: “I’m sick of subsidizing their groceries when mine cost so much”

SNAP does not drive up grocery prices.

That would be inflation, tariffs & corporate greed.

For every $1 spent on SNAP there’s a $1.50 going back into the economy.

While you’re blaming the poor, the rich are robbing everyone.

THIS is what true leaders sound like.

They don't brag about how great they are or speak nonsense about sharks, batteries, & magnets. They work for ALL the people & the ENTIRE country, focusing on prosperity.

Mostly, they don't attack, maim & kill their own citizens.

I don't think people realize what just happened on live TV.

Trump tells the GOP to vote to release the files, and he’ll give them whatever they’re “legally entitled to.” How long before he tells everyone they’re legally entitled to nothing because of the open and ongoing “investigation” he opened into a “hoax”?

Everything about the current 'debate' around this is dismal, not just morally but because it is so stupid. For example:

It conflates asylum-seeking and illegal immigration (and sometimes with migration generally)

It shows no understanding of why there is AS

Remember: The concentration of wealth in the hands of a few isn't just bad for our economy. It's corrosive to our democracy.

When the wealthy and well-connected control our political system, regular people don't have a voice.

The result? The demagoguery and corruption we're seeing now.
