This comes as Israeli forces continue their strikes across Gaza, killing at least 30 people, including six children, this weekend, in violation of the ceasefire. Some of the victims were taking shelter in tents. This was reportedly one of the deadliest Israeli airstrikes on Gaza in months.

There has to be an investigation into the many individuals who committed heinous crimes alongside Epstein.
There should be a special prosecutor, or a congressional investigation, that looks into the crimes and the ongoing cover-up. It has to happen.

happening this morning in Minneapolis -- ICE agents drawing guns on observers. I reiterate again that it is only a matter of time before DHS kills more innocent people in Minnesota. Congress needs to shut this shit down right now.

John Roberts forcing Supreme Court employees to sign NDAs for the first time in American history is a totally normal thing that shouldn't add at all to your daily stress about crumbling institutions.

I think we need to be saying, out loud, this:
If we sense that the elections in November have been stolen, it will be assumed by loyal Americans to be suspension of the U.S. Constitution and a declaration of civil war.
