It has long been my opinion that the rise of Trump 2.0 is fundamentally the result elites in every sector of society absolutely losing their minds over Me Too and the racial justice uprising, and every new piece of Epstein content just further validates this
New files released by the Justice Department show Jeffrey Epstein joking about being in a "pariahs club" and discussing the fate of powerful men who had been accused of wrongdoing.

I hope Dems begin to see that moderate or progressive, AIPAC is not our friend.
They endorse January 6th insurrectionists. Yet if you so much as suggest the US uphold its own Leahy laws, no matter your record, they will work against you.

The U.S. measles outbreak is out of control. What’s happening in South Carolina - and at Dilley detention center - could happen anywhere the vaccination rate dips too low. “It’s not a matter of if, but more likely when.” My latest:

They've adopted a strategy of claiming they're dialing it down while changing nothing on the ground. Minnesota is still under a violent, lawless reign of ICE terror. Children and families are still being abducted. Do not look away.
there's no such thing as "a softer touch" when you're trying to institute the largest mass deportation campaign in American history.

If Dem senators vote to extend the DHS CR again, they are instantly going to lose a tremendous amount of support from their base who have been in wait-and-see mode on this. I can only assume Dem senators considering this have completely lost touch with their voters. Don’t do it.

The public made noise for Liam Ramos and it got him released from Dilley.
Now we must make noise for 7 year old Diana Crespo.
Her parents were taking her for emergency medical care when ICE grabbed them, and she’s rotting in the camp sick and exposed to measles.
Get them out!

What kind of sick, horrific conditions are children being forced to endure in there?
I will be back tomorrow. Accountability can’t wait.

Trying the govt's best to spin things re: Minnesota, Homan said "Effective immediately, we will draw down 700 people, effective today, 700 law enforcement personnel."
This leaves "right around 2,000" agents in place, says Homan, when asked directly.

There are people who have volunteered to go back to their country, but are still waiting in ICE detention centers…
