I was fortunate to sit next to Bill Moyers at a 1997 League of Conservation Voters dinner in Manhattan. Here is the text of the speech he gave that night. It is my privilege to share it now. 1/2 @hcrichardson.bsky.social @rbreich.bsky.social @maddow.msnbc.com @chrislhayes.bsky.social

In case you haven’t noticed, there are no guardrails. No protections. No barriers. No rules. No guidelines. No separation of powers.
The White House has been caught.
The administration inserted a photo of Bill Clinton, Michael Jackson, and Diana Ross into the Epstein files and falsely implied it showed them with victims.
In reality, it’s a publicly available fundraiser photo featuring Jackson and Ross’s own children.
