The reactionary centrist logic is simple: if the left does something bad it’s the left’s fault, and if the right does something bad, it’s also the left’s fault for making them do it. It’s a simple formula and once you see it every one of their arguments is the same

Yes, this is exactly the time to demand Democrats "do something."
They can denounce Trump's actions as unconstitutional. They can state that he must be impeached and removed. They can make clear that all involved will be held accountable.
These are the core duties of a role they all signed up for.

Pat Harrington wearing his Special Forces jacket as we invade other countries is reminiscent of Rick Scott wearing his Navy hat as hurricanes invaded Florida.

REP. PAT HARRIGAN: I'm just a rank and file member of Congress. There are different notification mechanisms that need to happen based off title 50 operations

I am happy that some of the victims got some relief after the release of the Epstein files today.
Maria Farmer on the report's release:
"This is amazing. Thank you for believing me. I feel redeemed. This is one of the best days of my life. Of course, it's mixed with the fact that I'm devastated about all the other little girls like Virginia who were harmed because the FBI didn't do their job.

In the Epstein files: Maria Farmer reported Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell's activities to the FBI in 1996.

The fact that Bari Weiss pushed this dud thinking it would somehow be a ratings "get" for CBS is hilarious.
The absolute narcissism of these people. Turning CBS into a video format version of your niche personal Substack does not fly with viewers *or* advertisers.

As I stated, voting to open the govt felt like a betrayal initially but it’s putting the focus back on Epstein & Trump.

I initially was furious for the spineless Dems but this might actually work out to our advantage:
The last thing Johnson wants to do is open the govt because he’ll be forced to swear in Rep. Grijalva, who will be the last vote needed for the discharge petition. He really doesn’t want the govt

Is it too soon to say that the narrative has definitely been changed from focusing on Epstein/Trump??

one of the really challenging asymmetries in american politics is that democrats are asked to answer for the actions of every single hypothetical democratic voter in the country but republican lawmakers are not even asked about the behavior of their own elected peers
i would like some political reporter - any political reporter - to get one of the following reps on the record about mike lee and bernie moreno's comments:
- brad finstad
- tom emmer
- michelle fischbach
- pete stauber
both finstad and emmer served with her. ask them what they think of these lies.
