The trump regime’s outrageous efforts to cover up the Epstein files are as good as a signed confession that he is a child-raping pedophile. These are not the actions of innocent people. If there was nothing to hide, you know they’d be broadcasting that shit 24/7.
Buttigieg: We didn't know it, but we've all been trusting our lives to the restraint of whoever the president might be. And now we have a president who is completely unrestrained. And so the only answer to that is a functioning Congress.
It turns out we do not have a functioning Congress. The House of Representatives is not representative. One of the most important organs of our democracy is not democratic.
They say, "Oh, no. We're not manipulating the map to disempower black people. We're manipulating the map to disempower Democrats who happen to be black people.”
So, the time has come to make it impossible to manipulate the map for any reason and just have fair maps.
Donald Trump should have been removed from the White House in handcuffs on January 6, 2021.
He could have called off his terrorists with a Tweet.
Instead he let them beat up police, hunt government officials, and vandalize our Capitol for more than 3 hours.
So, turns out racist, wealthy white men are a bigger existential threat to our democracy than immigrants, trans people, drag queens or empowered women ever were. Or ever will be.
Trump never has money for healthcare or VA staff or anything to actually make Americans’ lives better — but somehow found $1.8 billion to reward his allies with your tax dollars. That's corruption, plain and simple.
COMMENTARY: Let’s say it plainly: There has never been a president as corrupt as Donald Trump.
There is no close second in our history.

I don't know who needs to hear this, but spreading hate about trans people will not bring down gas prices, grocery prices, or utilities.
Neither will invading Cuba or Greenland this weekend.
Or building a ballroom with taxpayer funds.
Or a slush fund for January 6th thugs.
Or ignoring the Epstein files.
Or blaming Joe Biden.
Or GOLFING.
You have to care about Americans.
You have to take responsibility.
You have to keep your promises.
You have to DO YOUR FUCKING JOB.
They didn't want to award the Capitol Police a medal or a plaque but want to reward the people who orchestrated and took part in the violence that injured me and ended my career. In the name of national reconciliation, they pardoned the same rioters who attacked us and now being rewarded for the violence they inflicted on us the officers.
They are trying to make the lives of the rioters whole or better than before they assaulted us. Yet to the officers, no apology, no compensation, no acknowledgment of the bravery and sacrifice we made to protect “each of your representatives” regardless of what party they belong.
Why did we risk our lives for then?
What a betrayal this is to us and to the rule of law days after “police week”.
