Not necessarily. There were some files that Trump kept at maralago in the first presidency that could not be taken by normal agents, they had such high secrecy, they were not aloud to touch them. Such might be the case, the info is that sensitive that it cannot be shown

That would be utter horseshit. The senior members of the intelligence committees are deeply involved in intelligence matters and chosen for those roles because they are serious people who understand the serious nature of the job. Unlike Tulsi fucking Gabbard who is not a serious person.

Do you understand how difficult it is to change the constitution?
Obviously the play would be lifted straight from the Nazis and only restrict firearm access/ownership by untrustworthy individuals (at least initially), and we do already have red flag laws in many states, so they'd likely build on that sort of foundation. That gets the buy-in from MAGA at first, because they're stupid and short-sighted.
Will it go anywhere? I don't know, but they can certainly attempt to impose restrictions in the current environment without changing the Constitution.

Ha ha ha .
6% on Rotten Tomatoes.

IMDB has a rating which surprises me since it is an Amazon company. And bezos was involved.
The syphilitic orange menace will call bezos and tell him to pull the fake ratings.

22,000+ ratings of 1.3
All the 79 who posted reviews were mainly 1/10
with a few 2/10.


The reviews are amazing

To me this is just a bubbled up campaign ad with dabbles of Melania, who, in my opinion, has the personality of an onion

While it might not be directly related to Trump's tariff it is almost certainly related to Trump... As an example and part of the issue is that there are entire industries such as defense where purchases that were going to made with USA companies are now going elsewhere.
Would love to see the burn rate at DHS.

the syphilitic orange menace endorsed, repug outspent the Dem opponent by 10:1
and still got her butt kicked? The fat bastard is not going to mention this
one at all. Except maybe saying the Dems cheated.
Or, never met her, don't know her.
Oh Trump explained it by the usual, "Well, I wasn't on the ballet". Yea, that explains it, and the other 2 or 3 other races where the Pubs lost significantly. Unless, there is some skullduggery by the Pubs. The HOR is gone for the Pubs. The Senate even has possibilities.

If Ken Paxton is the nominee in this environment? Yes. I think it is. Beto made it within two and a half points in 2018.
With Texas (and Florida), I'll believe it when I see it. 2018 was a political eon ago, when Ron Death Santis barely won his first gubernatorial race. The margins in 2024 were utterly depressing.
If there is a Blue wave in the midterms, then Dems will have a shot in TX, OH and AK.

Texans apparently love electing the worst of the worst, so Paxton may or may not be the preferred candidate for the challenger. Despite his ahem sterling CV, Texans have elected him for AG comfortably three times (2014 and 2022 were both routs).

i was checking out ratings and saw melania at 11/99% lol.
I looked at seats sold for the opening weekend here in Tallahassee and the number of tickets sold vs the number not sold was 1:2. Looking at sales for today's showings, there are a total of 13 sold and 390 not sold. More sold than I expected for the opening and wonderfully less for today.
