BREAKING: We just subpoenaed the Epstein files.
As a survivor of sexual assault, I know the pain & trauma survivors carry. This subpoena is a massive victory for every survivor who has ever been silenced, dismissed, or harmed.
Bondi must release the files immediately. We demand accountability.

In light of the news that the US economy has *lost* jobs under Donald Trump, it bears a reminder that the US economy *never* lost jobs in *any* month under Joe Biden.
What an incompetent loser Donald is.

Corruption is the brand
NEW: Kristi Noem, while governor of South Dakota, supplemented her roughly $130,000 salary by secretly accepting $80,000 donated to a political nonprofit she was affiliated with, records show.
She never disclosed this income on federal ethics forms.

A dark money group paid $80,000 to Noem’s personal company when she was governor of South Dakota. She did not include this income on her federal disclosure forms, a likely violation of ethics…

How long are we going to let this madness go on? We should be requiring agents to ID themselves, not legislating to protect masked vigilantes. @MarshaBlackburn

Elizabeth MacDonough is tasked with ensuring that the reconciliation bill complies with the “Byrd Rule,” which, among other things, excludes measures in which funding is “incidental” to a policy change.

Watching Truth Social posts by Trump every hour, each more insane & unhinged than the previous one as he circles the drain of a malignant narcissist’s descent into dementia, makes it that much more ridiculous that media just spent a month on Biden while pretending Trump is sane.

Scanlon: They're flat out lying when they say they're just kicking undocumented immigrants off Medicaid because those folks were never eligible for Medicaid in the first place. The truth is Republicans know that kicking millions of Americans off of health insurance is unpopular.

Ted Cruz just said Mr. Abrego has been charged with Human Trafficking. Cruz proclaims "I read every word of that indictment!" Apparently not, because Abrego was not charged with human trafficking.
I hope this comes up in a motion to dismiss the charges.

Hiding declassified files and presidential records is yet another way for the administration to dodge accountability. The authoritarian always seeks to limit your access to information.
👀 Spotted by @diking.bsky.social on the National Archives website:
“Effective July 7, the National Archives at College Park, MD, will become a restricted-access federal facility with access only for visitors with a legitimate business need. It will no longer be open to the public”
