The DOJ identified at least 10 co-conspirators who worked with Epstein and Maxwell. It’s obvious to anyone with two eyes that Epstein and Maxwell were engaged in organized crime, yet NO ONE ELSE involved in Epstein’s sex trafficking ring has faced criminal charges. Why?

Thank you, @franciswilkinson.bsky.social, for giving necessary attention to what’s going on with public education attacks in South Carolina. My story is but a drop in the bucket of the broader plot to make America dumb again. Education strengthens democracy. Destroying it hurts us all.
Gift Link. "No Congressional legislation was passed to institute this MAGA control over every US public school. No public debate informed it. No evidence was offered for its preposterous assertions....Yet the word “funds” or “funding” appears 9 different times." www.bloomberg.com/opinion/feat...
MAGA’s Book Bans Are Coming Back With a Vengeance
The Trump administration’s executive orders are fueling a wave of book bans, and South Carolina is leading the pack.

She does keep over $8 million in her campaign treasure chest.
When Trump was having wet dreams about Elise Stefanik as a potential VP pick, he called her "a killer".
It may be the most truthful thing he ever said.

“Would you acknowledge [bad faith spin from the administration’s toadies which I will present as an objective fact]?”
BRENNAN: This isn't everything you asked for just yet, but would you acknowledge that they are complying with the spirit if not the intent of your law?
MASSIE: No. They're flouting the spirit and the letter of the law. It's very troubling the posture that they've taken.

BRENNAN: What are you going to do to force DOJ to comply?
MASSIE: The quickest way and most expeditious way to get justice for these victims is to bring inherent contempt against Pam Bondi. That doesn't require going through the courts. We're drafting that right now.

🚨 The DOJ appears to have redacted Donald Trump’s name from the allegations made in this exhibit in the Epstein files.
Trump’s name was in the original release. Now, it’s blacked out.

I cannot emphasize how serious an assault on democracy this is. Any effort by the Trump administration to engage in false claims of fraud or mass voter suppression relies on this as a building block. As importantly, there is no legitimate reason DOJ would want this information.

They are the largest hate group in America, wrapping themselves in the red-white-and-blue of the flag, marching into the middle of American cities and claiming to be patriots.
