I also didn’t hear outrage when Mike Johnson decided to clock out early, saying Congress wasn’t in session because he didn’t want to vote on releasing the Epstein files. If you’re going to blast people for bailing on their jobs, at least be equal opportunity about it.

He’s going to take over DC to avoid talking about Epstein.

This is such old news it's absurd we're still talking about it. The Epstein situation is a real problem for the administration and keeps getting worse—but bringing up Hillary’s emails again? Come on. It's preposterous.

If Republicans are so concerned about national security, they’re welcome to make some compromises on body cams and unmasking ICE agents for starters. But don’t expect Democrats to give another 50 billion to fund the war in Iran . . . .

Republicans out there all but waving the mission accomplished banner look silly. It looks like U.S. airstrikes hit an Iranian school, killing more than 150 people, including dozens of children. Our partners in the Gulf are considering pulling back investments.

The Trump administration is scrambling to explain this war in Iran. American families calling embassies and being told no one can help. Leaders giving different explanations about why we’re involved. Something has to change in the approach if they want American support.

If Gabbard and Vance weren’t in this administration, they’d be protesting against it. Tulsi left the Democratic Party warning that Hillary would drag us into useless wars. She said Trump would run as a “peace president” and Stephen Miller had the audacity to say Kamala would take us into WW3.

Secretary Rubio finally admitted the truth: Israel decided to act and we went along with their timing. For weeks we’ve heard shifting stories about Iran, missiles, and our role. This isn’t what many voted for.

While Republicans parade around Hillary Clinton, they should remember that it was Ghislaine Maxwell who wrote to Melania Trump calling her “sweet pea.” While Democrats are content with having accountability for everyone, Republicans seem to be using the Epstein files as a political football.

Trump is in Texas today because the GOP is in trouble. Presidents don’t campaign in “safe” states unless something’s wrong. And, there's a lot wrong right now. Texans have suffered under one party rule for too long.

No one is taking away from the men’s win by pointing out that the women were treated poorly. Trump’s ‘joke’ was a relic of a sexist time past and had real impact. The men know they messed up and they’re saying as much, privately and publicly.

Americans are proud of the team bringing home the gold medal. What diminishes that moment is seeing it turned into a sideshow, with a president joking about whether to invite the women’s team and an FBI director posing with beers as though he earned a spot on the ice, all funded by taxpayers.

Why can’t Trump ever just take the win? SCOTUS threw him a life jacket and he’d rather drown in a sea of tariffs. The American people have been paying an extra 1K and are owed a refund. Throw in the abysmal Q4 GDP growth and this economy is not where the GOP needs it to be to win the midterms.
