Yesterday’s news roundup

Turd swears in Representative Adelita Grijalva after 50 days of public lying and stinking by the “performatively pious pipsqueaker of the House”. She immediately signed the discharge petition (step one of 3 or 4) to force the DOJ to release the rest of the Epstein files in which a certain unnamed current president figures prominently. Recall that here in America (unless you’re a critic of Mr. Trump), there is a presumption of innocence until proven guilty. Just because the Orange Menace was found guilty of sexually assaulting and defaming an adult woman doesn’t mean he’d do the same to a sixteen year-old high school girl groomed by his best friend. Even if the girl looked just like his favorite daughter. That former friend is dead anyway, found dead in his cell under shady circumstances during the first Trump administration. Clearly, nothing to see here!!!

Here’s a few seconds of the obsequious Trump lawyer/Attorney General:

The Attorney General of the United States, recent lobbyist for Qatar, mega-MAGA loyalist and supporter of vindictive prosecution of those publicly accused of “weaponizing” the law by applying it to Republicans, has joined California Republicans’ case against the temporary California redistricting plan. Bondi declared this plan, voted on overwhelmingly by California voters, “a brazen power grab.” Clearly, the DOJ’s position is that you don’t debate an issue and ask citizens to vote on it — you call a sycophant governor, like that bitter little man in Texas, from the Oval Office and order him to redistrict. That’s leadership!

In other news, President Trump is still insane, vindictive, cruel, incoherent and desperate to evade justice in every form. There is increasing evidence, daily, that he is likely also battling dementia. MAGA is starting to sweat over his accelerating shakiness. As Heather Cox Richardson reported last night:

MAGA has been at least partly demoralized by the information coming out of the Epstein documents, with right-wing influencer Dinesh D’Souza, for example, defending Trump by saying: “Right now, we don’t have anyone else.” Trump media ally Stephen Bannon told supporters: “Trump’s…an imperfect instrument, but one infused by divine providence. Without him, we’d have nothing.” source

In the likely event that MAGA’s 6-3 Supreme Court is forced to rule that their leader violated the Constitution by unilaterally imposing wildly fluctuating tariffs, which are taxes, a power reserved to Congress, Trump claims that it will cost $2,000,000,000,000 to repay the money raised from other countries he claims paid these tariffs. The next time he mentioned it he claimed it will cost three trillion. I don’t know how anyone, unless super rich, a member of a hate group, and/or simply a terrified, enraged person of limited intelligence, can look the other way while this madman disgraces our nation and makes the world a much more hostile and unsafe place for everybody but criminally minded billionaires.

Oh, yeah, there was also the release of a bunch of emails like this one:
