Rep. Stansbury: “The United States government is engaged in an active cover-up of the largest sex trafficking scandal and influence peddling scandal in the history of the United States, and Donald Trump is right at the center of it.”

I think MAGA is jealous of Bad Bunny.

Not only can he speak Spanish, but his English is far better than theirs.

More people should speak multiple languages, not less.

Kash Patel stopped FBI agents from investigating Renee Good’s killing because the findings might’ve contradicted their narrative that she was a “domestic terrorist.”

We cannot trust a word coming out of this Admin.

DHS must allow Minnesotan authorities to investigate, NOW.

Stupidity is the only thing that Trump pulls off well.
If Trump resumes nuclear testing, it would be a gift to China. The US has conducted over 1,000 nuclear tests; China has done just 45. Beijing has much more to gain from new nuclear tests than Washington. For Trump, this would be the height of stupidity. thehill.com/policy/inter...

By the way, for those of you not in MN: Homan’s strategy was to withdraw some agents, so it felt like we were in the denouement of the crisis, and then escalate hard against observers. They’re being incredibly aggressive with observers now. National media may not want to check out just yet

Lutnick and Epstein were in business together, Epstein files show
Though the commerce secretary has called his interactions with Epstein as "limited," the two were in business together four years after Epstein's 2008 guilty plea.

Today, construction on the nation’s largest infrastructure project came to a halt - with hundreds laid off - because Donald Trump is out of control.

The good news: political pressure still works, and we can use our voices to make sure he doesn’t have the last word.

This is an issue that has been allowed to proliferate like a GD deadly fungus in our society since power became a thing. These rich creeps think they are “better than” and no one else matters. This has to be brought down by those of us who DO matter. All of US.

Blueskyese and Xian share an obvious common root as both being Twitteric languages, the difference is that after the split Xian became a hybrid Twitteric/Channer-linkedin tongue, while Blueskyese changed less overall but did pick up some tumbleric and redditor loanwords

Three thoughts.

1. It’s always been about the white nationalism

2. He is returning to the old favorites because his support is waning

3. He dabbled with this trope before but would always leave a hair of deniability. Going straight there also seems like a sign of weakness

Let’s please resist sharing the racist image posted by the current president of the United States.

And let us remember that we are allies in the fight for justice always, or not at all. We must condemn this, loudly and without equivocation.

Swear to god, ICE could just announce they're leaving a city but not leave and the media will just stop covering that city completely even though ICE never left.

It's what ICE and the media did with LA and they're doing it with Minneapolis too

A central theme running through comments: protesting ICE is un-American and that any resistance amounts to a forfeiture of one’s life.

Cato Institute just nuked the lie. Immigrants have cut U.S. deficits by $14.5 TRILLION since 1994, slashing the national debt by a third.

All that “immigrants are bleeding us dry” noise? Absolute bullshit.
