What’s to be done now.
Resist of course…. But while you resist…..Try to give your children(and grandchildren) the sweetest most loving childhood you can provide. As much as possible protect them from the horror that is being promised. They deserve as much as possible a carefree childhood.

Larry Summers is a stark example of the grace given to white men who cause great harm. He was afforded second, third, & fourth chances, and then had the white hubris to come after the first Black women to be appointed to a position he himself was pushed out of. 1/ www.bostonglobe.com/2025/11/24/m...
Even with a career marked by controversy, Larry Summers seemed to rise above it all. Then came the Epstein emails. - The Boston Globe
A towering figure at Harvard University and in national politics for over a quarter-century, the economist now faces the greatest challenge to his legacy.

„Quiet, Piggy!“ Just think about that for a minute, and what it means to live in a time when a President can assault a woman in public like that without any consequences.
It‘s quite a testimony to the age of regression we live in.

New in PN: @mattgertz.bsky.social on the Orbanization of the press
"Everyone just accepts that of course the FCC will only allow a merger if it goes to a person that Trump wants to own it. That’s a very precipitous decline in our broad public assumptions of how govt power is supposed to be wielded"

Good. Dems not backing down in the slightest in the face of Trump's call for their execution. Keep this up, Dems. Treat Trump like *he's* the violent criminal and the real threat to our Constitution order. Because he is.

This is a good line and the key point to be amplifying:
"What’s most telling is that the President considers it punishable by death for us to restate the law."
Keep shining a bright light on Trump's violent lawlessness.

Dear ICE: They don't let you wear a mask in your mug shot.
Great news. This is what an ICE agent looks like in a mugshot. Meet Gerardo Rodriguez, 45, of Temecula, courtesy of the Riverside County Sheriff’s Office. Arrested for "illegally detaining a minor at gunpoint while off duty last week." 🧵

I watched this earlier, too, and it blew my mind. The man he's speaking to needs to be investigated because women and children aren't safe in his orbit. #Pedogarchy #pedophocracy #epsteinballroom
I'm as flabbergasted as Dean on this one. Unfuckingreal. First off, it's illegal but more than that, some children never get over such abuse. Some adults never get over it even with therapy. WTF is going on in this country?
