No, no, no, no and NO. MTG is not changing. She’s just opportunistic. Trumpy didn’t give her what she wanted (Speakership, VP, a hayroll, public backing, whatev), and her fellow MAGA Congresspeeps don’t seem to like her, so…she’s going solo. And to do that, she needs suckers on the Dem side to buy her new pitch. Don’t fall for it! I’m still upset with Raskin over his comments (I think to Terry Moran in a recent interview…saying that Lauren Boebert was a good friend and that she’s a “pretty wonderful person.” Boebert, really? Ok, I’ll stop now. I could rant on every topic you wrote about, for hours. :) or :(

Can a leopard really change their spots? I think not! MTG is still MTG and her current splash could just be political theatre... Is she ever going to get in "our" line? Nosiree... she has already made it clear that the line she is in and hoping to lead is the "America First and Only" line, which excludes a lot of Americans. She wants the promise of the original MAGA and she wants delivery on those promises. So, you want to know what she's up to? Go back and look at the original MAGA promises and you will find which line she is in and where she is headed. She's hoping to recover the "middle of the roaders" who might lean towards what she's selling, and that's all.

We need to see if Congress, or congressional committee can look at regardless of any cases ongoing - seems like they should be able to when cases are just to hide the files again

He wants Bondi to prosecute Dems and then say they cannot release files while case ongoing

Now bonsai is wavering, maybe the jail&prison time she will serve seems minus. She should go states evidence and do time with gislime!

Trump entertained Epstein at Mar-a-Lago during his first term. Who murdered poor old Jeffrey? Why did Trump's wife fall and die so close to her deposition? Why is her golf course grave on her husband's golf course now overgrown with weeds? He got a special tax deduction of having a "cemetery. on the property.

When the supreme court gave him immunity ("bold decisions" was the term they used), were they projecting too? (i.e. that the president had already authorized the killing of someone)

I will never be convinced

that Epstein’s death was suicide and Ivana’s fall was an accident. And I would add that Ghislain should watch her back as well.

Marge has an opponent in Georgia. His name is Shawn Harris. I’ve donated to his campaign and I’m from Texas. That’s the only reason that she’s playing nice now. She needs her job.

"CBS News’s Margaret Brennan pressed a Democratic lawmaker a pointed question Sunday about whether his party was using the Epstein files to distract from their failure to secure more affordable health care for Americans."

In the runup to the election, she was throwing "pointed questions" that were just fascist talking points at dems. Of course she's going to revert back to that, rather than blame repubs for removing them.

tRump is trying to change the narrative that things are not affordable. He wanting to create a new story with new people saying that the administration has addressed these issues. And that all is well and nothing to see or hear. Marge Green is out but she is still on the right side and is a die hard Maga supporter and still thinks tRump right about America.

Sure, welcome Marjorie Taylor Greene but let’s not get all gooey and fuzzy about it. Recognize that she is a MUGWUMP, a person whose mug is on one side of the fence and her wump is on the other — you may have to look up the historical context. And keep in mind that her mug and her wump may switch sides of the fence whenever the mood strikes. Emily Cole

Has Marge condemned ICE yet? No? Then fuck off, three toes.

Yeah, Jamie Raskin is a politician and politicians will do what politicians do - be political. MTG has a very long way to go before even considering redemption.

He didn’t cave. If and when you get 67 senators to vote for the release of the files, they will release redacted material and everything with this fucking orange shit stains name. This diaper wearing POS always said “Why didn’t Nixon get rid of the tapes?” What do you think this asshole is doing.

It must be the files aren’t as damaging as the emails now that they’re redacted or destroyed them. It’s all theater.

The most obvious explanation for Trump's sudden reversal on releasing the Epstein files is that the FBI has finished scrubbing the files for all mention of Trump.

I love that his idea of reaching out to the peasants is meeting with McDonald's OWNERS. Yeah, I'm sure they're really suffering.
