So instead of releasing the Epstein Files which contain all the evidence in the case, Trump is going to try and release grand jury transcripts that contain far less than 1% of the evidence, & secure a statement from Maxwell who has every incentive to lie for a sentence reduction.

Here in California we need our state and local leaders to tell us exactly what our rights are when we are confronted with armed masked men claiming they have the authority to disappear our fellow citizens. Now.

Be warned: Trump will likely use his war with Iran as a pretext to further suppress dissent at home.
We must resist his efforts to stifle freedom of speech, make warrantless searches and arrests of Americans, and put more military onto our streets.

A valid point! They can’t claim there was no time to consult the Congressional Gang of Eight and share key intelligence with them, as required before committing the nation to war.

Trump won’t listen to cooler, more competent voices. He just wants to blow shit up and act like he’s some big, bad dude when the reality is he’s sniveling and weak.
The biggest threat isn’t Iran. It’s a president launching airstrikes without intel, Congress, and a damn plan. Enemies, foreign and domestic, notice.
Watch @katiephang.bsky.social break it down. Then share this and talk about it with your squad. We can spread facts further than their lies.

Millions of acres worth of public land would be put up for sale in the Senate version of Trump’s big, ugly bill.
It’s a massive privatization of a public good that everyone gets to enjoy – all to finance tax cuts that predominantly flow to the super-rich.

5 things Trump did this week:
1. Announced Trump brand iPhone knockoff
2. Thought the UK was the EU
3. Announced he might bomb Iran in 2 weeks
4. Left work early for his New Jersey golf club
5. Kept the Epstein files safe for 22 weeks
