Hard to convict? Sure, but as the unanimous vote indicated, Senators are loathe to vote for Epstein, tough go sure, but one never knows as this issue goes to the base, and threatens anyone who defends Epstein.
Bizarre and unhinged, bordering on mental illness.

Trump shaking down countries offering to lift tariffs if they buy Musk's starlink ......my god what a corrupt administration.
Time for everyone to revisit the Mueller finding that while he couldn't PROVE a conspiracy, that Trump criminally obstructed his investigation. Trump sought, and Putin gave him help to seize power 3 times in 3 elections. Trump is compromised, and it is on display in Ukraine. JMO.
I think it was a state court circuit judge not a Federal Judge.

Tesla reported a 71% drop in profits, as it faced stiffer competition and Elon Musk’s role in the Trump administration turned off some car buyers. nyti.ms/4lyxrHU

An intriguing idea:
A small group of researchers & lawyers
comb through news reports,
identify straightforward criminal conduct &
write "indictments in waiting."
This could provide "a sense of scale:" how much criminal conduct is occurring but not being investigated or prosecuted.

Trump=Butt hurt.......
Rumbles on the right: David Brooks calls for a "national civic uprising," while Bill Kristol blasts ICE thugs and Lisa Murkowski talks candidly about fears of retaliation. New at Media Nation.

Hoax you say.....I don't think so.
Navarro is just a warm up, a canary in the coal mine, just imagine what RFKjr. could do with a pandemic, what cosplay Kristi could do with a cyber attack, imagine if Tulsi got some important intel, but chose to believe GRU , Kash at FBI, Hegseth if China attacked Taiwan, so many potential messes
Jeeze, would these two "get a room".....
On Bond market: if China wanted to harm US and Trump they'd sell bonds, if EU had had enough of Trump threatening NATO and aligning with Russia and wanted to weaken Trump and his movement, if Japan and South Korea wanted to make nice with China and damage an erratic Trump they would all sell bonds.👀

Trump caved again, waffled, weaseled, chickened out, cowered, crawled, flip flopped, turned and ran. Another win for China.
Why did Trump pause tariffs? Inside the critical 13 hours

As good a summary of the current stupidity as you'll find.

While we are at it David, lets also blame Biden, and Garland, and Harris's campaign team who refused to respond to attacks, and to the "Groups" who pushed Biden and Harris into politically untenable positions. Young people, Arab Americans, a few Latino and black men. Much blame to go around.
I don't know how, but at this rate of destruction and disfunction, there is no way he maintains power for the full term. I can't imagine R's in senate voting for impeachment, but then again this is not extortion of Zelenski, it is destruction of the world economy.

Soon it will be "I don't know him, couldn't pick him out of a line up, he was only with us for a "very short period of time", nope don't know this Elong Mush, didn't he used to have a car company......? Short very short period of time.
After tonight's massive political repudiation of Musk, his destruction of the Schmil campaign, after his debacle of Twitter, and his destruction to the Tesla brand, his rockets blowing up, one has to ask, what is he really good at?
Sometimes a campaign win means more, has greater significance, marks a turning point, an inflection point, I think tonight was such a win. Now Lets turn our sights on Virginia and New Jersey. And let's begin fill the coffers of D congressional candidates in the 50 most vulnerable R districts.
