Alaska’s incumbent GOP senator gets bad news in tight race, Democrats feel pressure to investigate Trump, Republican senator calls colleagues “stupid” for downplaying midterms
Thank you Congressman Massie and Chair Garcia for your work.
Senator Kennedy, while the current elected Republicans are stupid and have done nothing but sit on their thumbs for the last 10 years. I am assuming that's why you call them stupid. Not doing their jobs is surely stupid. The will of the people " We The People" have spoken, loud and clear. We will continue to rid our Country of stupid, well paid, do nothing, elected officials. Making our Country America again. The time has come to clean house and take out the trash. Pun intended.
Nice to see that someone has a backbone and wants to push things forward , massie is doing the right thing , he will need the dems for support so no traffic delays or ‘ I’m busy’ get this done, get justice for all the victims and bring all abusers no matter who , what or how rich and famous they are , get them all locked up and take everything as well as their freedom away .
Didn't his failed impeachment of Hegseth teach him anything? The cowards in the GOP will never allow the Epstein files to see the light of day as long as their tinpot dictator is in office. Why not wait until January third, when we will have a democrat majority in both Houses? Sure, he'll be gone from congress that day, but the credit would still go to him!
Well, Thomas, he sure learned that a discharge petition could work. Do keep up. I applaud him for his public service in regard to two important issues.
Democrats elected by a very wide margin had better believe We the People voted them in to act in our interests and we are watching. 11 Democrats missing the vote to impeach whiskey Pete cannot happen again. We expect accountability, discipline, and action when the new Congress is seated. No excuses. New blood is needed and new leadership. Or we will lose in 2028. And none of those who voted in the midterms for Democracy want to see that happen. A return to fascism with trump loyalists is unpalatable at the least and execrable at the most. We expect all of you to work together and make the most of the political capital made in the midterms. Do not disappoint us.
John Neeley Kennedy is no fucking brighter than those he was bitching about. What he wants to do, solves NONE of the problems in the day to day life of Americans. He should be shipped back to Bayou Bilge!
The DEMS need to beat Trump at his own game. Before they send the first subpoena, they should take advantage of their new majority to change the rules associated with subpoena timing. Give themselves the advantage of Congressional intent, thereby giving courts the ability to speed decision making... to days instead of months and years. Make the consequences for failure to comply extremely harsh both on the individual personally and in their committee roles in Congress going forward. Ensure subpoenas bring the intended accountability without regard for future impacts it could have on a DEM, and make it so freaking painful for the GOP that they'll be begging to appear. Channel your inner-Trump Jamie Raskin... the Orange Oracle of Shame deserves your undivided attention to bring these crooks and cronies to justice. Lock them up!
Hegseth is a disgrace and should never have been in that position. Any effort to rid the country of him & his incompetence should have been fully supported. Eleven democrats failed to show up to vote, all with lame excuses! Republicans do what they always do. Stick together out of fear. No surprise there. In fact, old-guard Democrats' behavior doesn't surprise me either. It's why we desperately need new leadership! And people who understand the Democracy crisis our country is in.
But does he REALLY have the votes (even though Drumpf signed AN ACTUAL LAW to release the damn files !!!l), or are the democrats going to have “something better to do” again, and the republicans chicken out??
Senator Kennedy saying his colleagues are stupid was a great opening that disintegrated from there and ended with that sound effect of the needle screeching across vinyl: another mammoth increase in Hegseth’s “dream project” - the Iran war. Ironically, that this plan is not going to be addressed in the current Senate is a godsend as it’s guaranteed that getting $200b into the Defense Department now would be catastrophic if past is prologue.
Release to show trump guilty/not guilty its guilty right now
We all know he’s guilty!
I sure do.

I am talking about the Epstein discharge from last year.
How do you figure it "worked" when the motion didn't pass even the House? Massie himself was the only GOP vote!
🤞🏻💙Alaska and 🖕🏻to Musk & co.
Excellent post, John!

We will soon see. I am glad he is keeping this on the front burner.
