Trump faces one crisis after another

President Trump signed a bill ordering the Department of Justice
to release all unclassified material related to Jeffrey Epstein.
The bill - signed on November 19th - calls on the DoJ to deliver
the files within 30 days. The president initially resisted
Congressional efforts to sign the bill before reversing course
ahead of a House vote. Democrats rallied around the push to get
the files out, but are they picking the wrong fight? 





The affordability issue was a boon for Democrats in their
sweeping victories in the 2025 elections. It could be the
defining issue of the midterms. In the face of a cost of living
crisis, the president rescinded a number of tariffs on vital
goods last week. Will it be enough to win back the political
ground he’s lost? Plus, the redistricting effort in Texas faces a
loss in federal court. Could that impact the effort to create
more seats in California and other blue states that looked to
counter Texas Republicans?

what they're thankful for (with help from a few friends). Plus,
