Epstein... that old chestnut.

Apparently Ghislaine Maxwell is 'assisting the Fbi in their investigations'.
Whatever the hell that means. For clemency and a reduced sentence most likely.

I am confused. Again.
They are investigating something that doesn't exist but all know does exist? Probably trying to implicate Biden.

Trump wanted to be re-elected for multiple reasons. Those reasons leave him compromised.

I agree, but I takes more than just the president. the entire party have to be complicit.
Starmer has a massive majority but can’t push through unpopular stuff because his MPs have principles.
Trumps majority is razor thin but his party are so scared of him.

Its a two party system, majorities have generally been very close

Here's the last 8 terms both Senate and Congress

Senate Majority (Last 8 Terms)
111th Congress (2009–2011): Democrats held the majority with 57 seats, plus 2 Independents (Bernie Sanders and Joe Lieberman) who caucused with Democrats, giving them a total of 59 seats (including a brief filibuster-proof supermajority of 60 seats until February 2010). Republicans held 41 seats.
112th Congress (2011–2013): Democrats maintained the majority with 51 seats, plus 2 Independents (Sanders and Lieberman) caucusing with Democrats, totaling 53 seats. Republicans held 47 seats.

TACO.
July deadlines pushed back till August.
“When asked by a reporter whether the new August date was a hard deadline, Trump said: "I would say firm, but not 100% firm.”

In other words, meaningless.
