THIS IS SICK!

Epstein’s victims say Ghislaine Maxwell was worse than Epstein. She groomed and delivered girls to him.

Now she pleads the 5th across the board & offers to clear Trump’s name in exchange for clemency.

Send her evil ass back to doing hard time instead of the cushy camp she’s in now!

A million times this.
“The proposal that is now sitting before the Senate [gives ICE and CBP more funds]. Instead of cutting those agencies another big check from taxpayer money, Congress should use its constitutional power over spending to pull back the funding it gave DHS in July.”

You’ll notice that not one single reporter stood up for/defended CNN’s Kaitlan Collins as she was being verbally attacked by the orange felon in the bulldozed White House. They can’t even stand up for one of their own so there’s no hope of them ever standing up for democracy.

When women rise together,
walls crack, ceilings shatter, and the future shifts.
There’s no stopping a collective that knows its worth, protects its own, and refuses to be quiet.

Together isn’t just stronger, it’s unstoppable. 💥💪

Alex Pretti, the man killed by federal agents today in Minneapolis, appears to have been a registered nurse, an athlete, a son and a brother, with ties to Colorado and Wisconsin.

Here is a photo he used for several accounts.

A nuclear-armed U.S. under full totalitarian control is an existential threat to billions of people. To life on this planet.

It's up to us, U.S. citizens living here in the imperial core, to stop it. Nobody is coming to save us. Not the U.N., not the ICJ. It's us or it's nobody.

It’s hard to believe a president would time an illegal military attack to distract the public’s attention, but today is the statutory deadline for DOJ to release its report on the Epstein file production. Maybe it is just a coincidence.

“Out of touch” isn’t it.

A president who gilds the Oval Office in gold, slaps his own name on a cultural institution, tears down the East Wing for his own vanity project, and then tells us the affordability crisis is all in our heads.

It’s not out of touch; it’s contempt for the people he governs.

It's amazing how so many billionaires - who have WAY more money than they could possibly need in 500 lifetimes - REALLY want to avoid paying small slivers of tax money to benefit a common good like social safety services for less fortunate countrymen within the society that made them billionaires.

The Supreme Court is never going to stop this intentional and deliberate corruption of the Federal Judiciary and Rule of Law by this President and his Attorney General.

I'm not trying to be mean, but racists who believe Trump betrayed them by being a child molester are not going to embrace the Democratic Party without forcing that party to embrace racism. And the people gained would in no way make up for those lost.

Megyn Kelly: "I know somebody very close to this case…Jeffrey Epstein, in this person's view, was not a pedophile…He was into the barely legal type, like he liked 15 year old girls…He wasn't into like 8 year olds…There's a difference between a 15 year old and a 5 year old."

Catherine my good bitch you guys are the only ones who do not know where the Republicans stand
Steve Inskeep: You think the Republicans voting with you here will not only agree to these measures, but actually try to do something if the administration ignores them?

Sen Cortez Masto: If they go back on their word, then the American public will know where the Republicans stand.
