It should be released to the public. We paid for it, we deserve to see it unaltered.

Sad to say if it is released to the public it will be heavily redacted.

Ok this guy is GROSS but I’m EVEN more freaked out about Gabbard - our nations secrets. Hegseth - our military - he’s a dangerous white supremacist & holy warrior. This dude will tell ppl to shoot protestors. RFK jr endangers are food/drug safety & supply & our basic health & well being.

Each one is worse than the next!! From our country's point of view, the actions Gaetz (or any Trump pick) will do as AG (or any other top job) is more serious than Gaetz being a (accused) child rapist.

Sadly he'll be a recess appointment.

I was going to say the same thing and then I just read the McConnell won't allow recess appointments. I'm wondering if I hit my head or something.

I just heard that too.

babushka604.bsky.social•114 days ago

Whew, so my head is fine.

I just hope he's not lying. 😂

He's out of leadership in 2025 and mostly out of power. There's nothing he can do to stop recess appointments.

McConnell has NEVER liked Trump. Whenever he worked with Trump it was out of McConnell's personal self-interest (EVERYTHING McConnell -and EVERY other Republican - does is out of personal self-interest). At the same time, McConnell's power is limited and rapidly diminishing.

So should the DA in Florida, just saying.

Oklahoman here. I commend MWM, it’s totally out of character for him to not stick to the GOP playbook.

Everything Republicans do (and most everything half of Democrats do) is driven by personal self-interest. I'm just happy when their self-interest aligns with justice, rule-of-law, Human Rights for all, and other positive values.

I worked for the MBTA transportation of Massachusetts. Employees were suspended and recommended for discharge for any sexual abuse period. The highest positions in the US government needs to uphold the laws everyone has to adhere to.
