It was a shite case from the start. I don't know if it was incompetence, an attempt to save face, lack of solid evidence, or all three. But it was clear teh case was going nowhere.
In the 2024 elections:

Pennsylvania 7th district:

Republican - 50.4%
Democrat - 49..4%

Pennsylvania 10th district:

Republican 50.5%
Democrat 49.3%

Pennsylvania 8th

Republican 50.7%
Democrat 49.1%

Most likely an understatement to say these probably flip.

I’m just tired of half measures.


No one sold the war to the American people before it began. When you operate that way, you get half measures. You also get boxed in like we are now. There is no political will to do what it takes to remove the regime. That will might have come after laying out the reason to do so and arguing the goals in the political arena.

I imagine there aren't any other cases where the court didn't order dismissal with an unopposed motion to dismiss by the DOJ.



It happens. Rare, but it happens.
It is still mildly significant, though - nothing major.

Nothing requires the Circuit Court to vacate the ruling of the district court. While unusual not to do so - this is the DC Circuit.

Maybe the idea is, who cares - they have been pardoned anyways?

I see no mention of a terrorist state developing nukes. Why?


Because the same people telling us that Iran is/was close to having nukes have been saying the same thing since the early 80s. At some point, anyone with common sense stops believing them?
I wonder if he will run as an independent somewhere. He could wait until next cycle and run again in his district. He might think bigger and be a big thorn in the GOPs side in a statewide race.

Crazy that SC isn't projected to gain any.


Yeah, I thought SC was fastest growing state on a percentage basis.

I bet there is a decent chance her family still supports this animal.
Maybe. But Seattle and Washington do not have an income tax. Plus, millionaires and billionaires actually live in NYC. Bezos lived outside Seattle, not sure about the Starbucks guy.

That makes me think Seattle is less reliant on big earners, and more reliant on people staying in and visiting the actual city.

But the fact is big cities across the country still have not adapted to the post Covid world. Some are doing it better then others, but almost all cities are having serious budget problems. Telling rich people "bye" isn't going to help any of them.

With all the stories being written it's hard to google search, but I've posted tweets during the Biden Presidency by Massie about Epstein.


If he commented on Epstein during Biden's terms at a small fraction of what he did the last 15 months then it would be easy to find and all of us would know.
It would also be easy to find legislation he introduced from 2021 through 2024.
quote:

id Massie ever directly link Trump to any illegality re: Epstein?


I don't think so, but I am also not sure why that matters. No criticism of the Biden DOJ for not "releasing the files" or not prosecuting anyone, and then all at war when Trump's DOJ got in charge.
Consistency is important, I think. had he been demanding prosecution/release sometime from 2021 to the beginning of 2025 and bringing up bills in Congress to do so then he would have some credibility on the issue. He didn't and so he rightly is perceived as a partisan hack on the issue by many.

to anti-Trump Epstein obsessive in 2025 after tweeting about that issue a whopping three (3) times in the decade prior.


That is why I have negative view of the guy. On that issue he was basically a rabid TDS Democrat. Never talked about Epstein during the Biden years and suddenly it was the most important thing in the history of the universe.
Why are feds involved in this? Was this on federal property? Are feds charging them with terrorism or something? I don't really care, just curious.
What does a war powers vote do now? Hasn't the Administration ended the war? Is Congress going to say our military cannot fire even if fired upon?
it is getting crowded. i remember when it was farmers and weed growers. still a great place, though, even though the liberals managed to remove the Rebels name from our high school
spanberger's virginia will let him off without a warning.
Affluent areas look like this. At least here in middle Tennessee. High density projects that have a school or schools in the neighborhood, a grocery store, restaurants, liquor store, etc.
One well-known affluent area in my ton of Franklin is Westhaven - 3500 houses on 1500 acres. Average price is $1.3 million or so.

I agree. Hope his leadership doesn't turn Florida purple in a few years.
