Slept well. A layer of ice on everything after 3” of snow. We shoveled out last night. The roads were okay, and I’m waiting while Wil has his first retina appt.
Did you read Heather Cox Richardson’s post from late last night? Here’s part of it:
After viewing the [Epstein] files briefly yesterday, Raskin told Andrew Solender of Axios that when he searched the files for President Donald Trump’s name, it came up “more than a million times.” Raskin suggested that limiting members’ access to the files is part of a cover-up to hide Trump’s relationship with the convicted sex offender, a cover-up that includes the three million files the DOJ has yet to release despite the requirements of the Epstein Files Transparency Act. One of the files he did see referred to a child of 9. Raskin called it “gruesome and grim.”
Representative Ro Khanna (D-CA) added: “There’s still a lot that’s redacted—even in what we’re seeing, we’re seeing redacted versions. I thought we were supposed to see the unredacted versions.”
Poland announced it was launching an investigation into whether Epstein was tied to Russian intelligence. “More and more leads, more and more information, and more and more commentary in the global press all relate to the suspicion that this unprecedented paedophilia scandal was co-organised by Russian intelligence services,” Polish prime minister Donald Tusk said. “I don’t need to tell you how serious the increasingly likely possibility that Russian intelligence services co-organised this operation is for the security of the Polish state. This can only mean that they also possess compromising materials against many leaders still active today.”
In Washington today, a grand jury refused to indict six Democratic members of Congress for breaking a law that makes it a crime to “interfere with, impair, or influence the loyalty, morale, or discipline of the military or naval forces of the United States.” Senators Mark Kelly of Arizona, a retired Navy captain and astronaut; Elissa Slotkin of Michigan, a former CIA analyst; and Representatives Jason Crow of Colorado, a former Army Ranger; Chris Deluzio of Pennsylvania, a former Navy officer; Maggie Goodlander of New Hampshire, a Navy veteran; and Chrissy Houlahan of Pennsylvania, a former Air Force officer, recorded a video last November reminding service members that they must refuse illegal orders.
But there’s lots more to read there too, about ICE and about the National Governors Association.
Re Epstein's foreign ties: Two investigations have been launched so far in Britain based on info released in the Files. It would also appear that his rumored connections to Mossad have been confirmed. He was one busy little creep.
The fact that trump and his cronies are so super-secretive about the Epstein files probably prompted other countries to start their own investigations. If he's working that hard, along with Pam Bondi to hide them they *must* be beyond horrific. So, in trying to suppress the files he lit the fires that highlighted them. But he's always been an A-hole.
I am snacking on some Tostitos bite-size chips. The nutrition info says ones serving is about 22 chips, so I counted 22 chips into a bowl. And then I laughed and laughed. Susan
🤣 I must be too, because I love corn chips! I like the Green Mountain Gringo tortilla strips best...and especially love them with Tostidos mild salsa!

DeleteThe world is helping us by doing some investigations the Republicans won't.
DeleteThey can't blame that on the Democrats, Obama or Biden.
