I am Now Onboard With Abolishing DHS
This is how those esteemed public servants regard American citizens, including preachers, the people they're supposed to serve, who disagree with them:
Of all the mistakes of Bush the Lesser, the creation of DHS was one of his biggest. We didn't need some massive Orwellian Soviet-themed police agency to harass the American people in 2001 and we sure as fuck don't need them now.
DHS should be broken up. ICE needs to be reduced by 90%, Customs sent back to checking the border, and the jurisdiction of the Border Patrol reduced to 500 to 1,000 yards from the border itself. The "DHS cops" all need to be RIF'd. Airport security should be handed back to the states, with federal criteria that they need to meet.

The Conservatives Are Having Conniption Fits About the Pope
He seems to be living the message of Jesus about immigrants and outcasts, and the Right, including the CouchFucker, is all "how dare he".
I suppose that the Leading Fake Christian in Congress is of the same opinion, but I haven't bothered to track it down. Frankly, he's such a despicable and detestable person that I feel an urge to wipe down my keyboard with a bleach wipe after typing his name. He should be greeted in public by people ringing bells and chanting "Shame! Shame!"
And you can totally buy one to ring whenever a politician from the Group of Pedos is about.

Let's Be Clear About One Thing: There Is No "Department of Justice" Anymore
It's Trump's Taxpayer-Paid Legal Department.
They've done nothing about Texas's gerrymandering, hell, Trump called for it. But gerrymandering for Democrats is illegal, according to Trump's personal lawyer, the eminently bribable Pam Bondi.
Gerrymandering for the GOP without voter approval: Bondi likes.
Gerrymandering for the Democrats with voter approval: Bondi sues.
The Justice Department on Thursday sued to block new congressional district boundaries approved by California voters last week, joining a court battle that could help determine which party wins control of the U.S. House in 2026.

Trump, Epstein and More
First off, it's coming out that Epstein and Trump were friends for a lot longer than Trump has said. Epstein was coaching Steve Bannon on a media campaign to support Trump in 2018.
Trump has no real friends, he never has. Every relationship in his life is transactional. He keeps people in his orbit for what they can do for him. When they can't do anything more for him, they're gone. That Epstein was in his life for so long speaks volumes.
Second, I want to pivot to Jimmy Kimmel, who lost his lifelong friend and bandleader, Cleto Escobedo III. Kimmel's taking a few days off, but he did his show the day Escobedo died. His monologue was a heartfelt eulogy to his friend.
On social media, I've read some pretty brutal comments, mocking Kimmel for showing his feelings and calling him all sorts of nasty shit. I'm not going to quote or link to them. But if that's you, check your head. You're showing what kind of character that you have and it's not flattering to you.

The Coming Epstein War
The most advanced U.S. aircraft carrier is expected to reach the waters off Venezuela in days, a flex of American military power not seen in Latin America for generations.
Experts disagree on the possibility that American warplanes will catapult off the USS Gerald R. Ford to bomb targets inside Venezuela and further pressure authoritarian President Nicolás Maduro to step down.
The classic move of an embattled autocrat is to start a war with somebody in order to wave the flag and rally the populace. The Argentinian junta played that card by invading the Falkland Islands in 1982. (The junta fell after losing that war.)
Any military action by the Trump regime will be to distract the American people from the fact that Trump is a pedophile who features prominently in the Epstein files.
Trump is Clearly a Pedophile and He is Terrified That His Base Will Find Out (Updated)
So he is doing everything humanly possible to stop the vote on the Epstein discharge petition.
The Orange Pervert dragging Handsy down to the Situation Room to pressure not to sign the petition seems a bit much.
EDITED to ADD:
And this guy agrees.
As the saying go, the rubber is going to hit the road when the Epstein file bill comes up for a vote next week. Will we see a shitload of GOP reps voting for it, now that they'll have to go on the record about whether or not to keep on protecting Trump's alleged pedophilia? Because you know, Gentle Reader, that if he wasn't in it up to his hairline, that he'd not be fighting so hard to keep it under wraps.
Q: "Why are White House officials…meeting with Rep. Boebert in an effort to try to get her to not sign this petition calling for the release of the [Epstein] files?" Leavitt: "I'm not going to detail conversations that took place in the situation room."

EDITED to ADD:
One reason you hold a meeting to pressure/cajole/threaten Boebert in the Situation Room is so she can't record it.
