IN CASE YOU MISSED IT
Confession time. On Monday we published four posts and forgot to tell the mailman. They went up on the site, web only, and your inbox heard nothing. That one is on us. So here is IN CASE YOU MISSED IT: four posts, one email, zero excuses.
REVERSE COURSE
Seven senators, four Republicans and three Democrats, told Trump to “immediately reverse course” on Russian diesel. Tillis says it may be illegal, Bessent says he has the authority, and a 2022 import ban suddenly got very interesting once the pump did. Read REVERSE COURSE.

PERIOD.
Schumer told Politico he is running again for Democratic leader. “Period.” Then Kansas nominee Adam Hamilton, a megachurch pastor, said he won’t back him, and Cook moved Kansas to toss-up. Read PERIOD.

THE CLIENT LIST NOBODY READ
A viral post says Epstein’s accountant named the Rothschilds as paying clients. The bones check out and the details don’t: two different Rothschilds, one $25 million fee, no charges, and both parties suspiciously quiet. Read THE CLIENT LIST NOBODY READ.

NEWS FOR ME
Trump posted an “ENERGY CEASEFIRE” with Russia and Ukraine. Zelenskyy told Axios it was news to him, and the FT reports Washington threatened to pause weapons buys and intel unless Kyiv stops hitting energy targets. Read NEWS FOR ME.

Both costumes
Monday’s scorecard: Republicans got a statute they forgot, Democrats got a leader their own nominee won’t vote for, both parties got Epstein donors they would rather not discuss, and Kyiv got a ceasefire by press release. Nobody wore the halo. Same as every day.
Follow the money, on our site
If you want receipts without waiting for the next post, hypocrisydemocracy.net now has new Follow the Money sections. Money Trail shows who funds every U.S. senator, with each figure linked to its filing. PACTracker follows the PACs that fund the officials we profile and the vendors their committees pay. The Money Map is our state map: click a state for its campaign money, colored by which party holds more of its congressional seats. Same template for every party, because hypocrisy does not check voter registration.
