Before the midterms of 1866, President Andrew Johnson called his congressional opponents traitors and said they should be hanged.
Voters were so profoundly moved by his words... that they gave his opponents a supermajority in Congress, and the nation got the Fourteenth Amendment.

With Trump and his subservient DOJ/FBI, I have little faith that we'll ever see complete transparency on the Epstein files — so unfortunate, and a travesty of justice for the victims.
However, I do have some comfort that the cloud of cover-up will hang above Trump's head for the rest of his life.

I've been enjoying following the James Comey "prosecution" by insurance lawyer Lindsey Halligan, who was brought in to carry out Trump's demands when no honest prosecutor would.
It is a race to see which of the maybe 10 or 12 legitimate reasons for dismissal will be first.

Yikes 😬 an official U.S. government account just referred to Americans as “imbecilic morons.” That’s… a choice.

The trial of the DC sandwich thrower is underway…
Border Patrol agent Lairmore testifies that he was not injured by the sandwich, but he felt the impact through his ballistic vest.
The sandwich came apart and "kind of exploded" on his chest upon impact, he says.
"I could smell the onions and mustard."
