Yes, it IS a cover up. A massive cover up. And the person behind the cover up is the President of the United States. Oh sure, blame Pam Bondi if it makes u feel good. But she’s just a tool. She does what Trump tells her to do. This whole sordid scandal is on Trump.👇 www.mediaite.com/opinion/yes-...
Epstein Files Cover-Up: The Media is Cautious With the Term
Congress ordered the Epstein files released. The president signed the law. The public has been handed pages with names removed.

Someone has sure already made this observation but the fact they can convert all those empty warehouses into prison camps means they could have converted them into housing, community centers, job training centers or, hell, libraries or schools all along. It’s always a matter of will not resources.

I miss when you could post Brave Norman Rockwell Townsperson and the caption could be, like, “R.E.M was wrong to leave ‘Fretless’ off of Out of Time” instead of “The secret police should stop murdering people.”

Rep. Angie Craig: "The attacks on Black and brown people in Minnesota have been egregious. At the end of the day, what they wanted out of Minnesota was for us to riot. I think this will go down in American history as one of the greatest examples of peaceful resistance from an entire community."

In Minnesota, we are all too familiar with false spring. You think maybe winter’s finally over...until the cold snaps back, sometimes even harder.
That’s what this moment feels like. You may hear that ICE is “leaving", but they’re shifting, spreading out.
Don’t mistake a brief thaw for safety.

When will Republicans, veterans organizations, & retired military officers speak up about this? No president in the history of the Republic has done this. Yet Trump, Vance, & Hegseth do it constantly. It betrays the most important core value of our military-no partisan politics.

This is something the Nazis used to do to Jewish children in the camps. It happened to a man I knew when he was a child in Auschwitz. The camp guards thought it was funny as hell.
On Thanksgiving, the immigrant children held at the Dilley detention center gathered in the gym for what they thought was a holiday feast.
The kids salivated over a spread of turkey, sandwiches, pastries and pies, a family told me.
But the food wasn’t for detainees — it was for the staff.

There is no reforming this. There is only abolition, and then trials.
