The fact that they held out for so long just to cave like pathetic cucks is insane. If you're going to be cucked, either don't shut down the government or end the shutdown in a week. 

It's insane that air traffic controllers and others are unpaid while politicians still get paid. 

Its easy to say this but lets be real, there were no reason for the GOP to submit.  Each played their hand but when you are really powerless what concession were the GOP going to give when right now they have all the power.  As Mike has shone, he has no plans to even bring up the subsidies in the House so without any vote or discussion, there were never going to do anything about the issues they cut.  

I guess the key is did the shutdown cause awareness on the issues at hand enough to sway votes for the Dems or did it just hurt their chances when the mid terms happen.  Will they use this moment to show that the GOP had absolutely no intention of negotiating with the Dems when January comes around, thus using Mikes words against him and the GOP words of negotiating the subsidies in December as lies and try again or will they kick the can down the street once more.

At some point you have to cut your losses and believe this isn't something you are going to just win in one attempt. At some point if what you say will cause harm, than harm must happen or why would the general population believe in what you say.  Is this a battle solve in one move or is it something that needs to develop over many moves.  If the policies of the GOP are unpopular than how you frame it and strategize around it will be the real key.

I personally never felt the the GOP needed to negotiate anything because their policies haven't kicked in yet so there was only words not pain to negotiate on which isn't enough.

Ghislaine Maxwell gets special treatment at prison camp, whistleblower claims - Fox News

"The whistleblower claimed Maxwell received 'concierge-style' treatment at Federal Prison Camp Bryan in Texas, which includes after-hours permission to use the exercise area, customized meals, time with puppies trained to become service dogs, and more." 

"The whistleblower claimed one of the top prison officials complained he's sick of having to be Maxwell's bitch."

The truth is slowly coming out

EPSTEIN EMAILS CLAIM TRUMP KNEW EVERYTHING

Krystal and Emily discuss bombshell Epstein emails revealing Trump's deep knowledge.

Blow for Netanyahu as Megyn Kelly reveals video on Charlie Kirk, Tucker Carlson

In a significant setback to Benjamin Netanyahu and his support base in the US, Megyn Kelly has just dropped an unseen video of Charlie Kirk and Tucker Carlson. In the video, Kirk could be heard asking Carlson to ‘go max’. This, according to Kelly, was in reference to Carlson’s growing criticism of the Netanyahu regime and the lobby in the US. Rifat Jawaid says that this is yet another piece of evidence of growing disenchantment amongst America’s Right against the interference of a foreign entity into US affairs.

Trump is leaning hard on Bobo and Mace to change their votes on the Epstein files, now that Adelita Grijalva (D-AZ) has finally been sworn in and cast her vote to open the investigation.

Headline: "Trump Blows Big Beautiful Bill"

It sounds like Marge and Trump are officially on the outs. I wonder how she'll fare in the post-Trump era. She seems to be jumping ship faster than most which could work in her favor depending on the fallout of these Epstein files, but I wonder how effective her brand will be without him.
