Some striking arguments here from Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-MD) to Pam Bondi
"You replaced real prosecutors with counterfeit stooges who robotically do the President's bidding"
"Trump orders up prosecutions like pizza.. and you deliver every time"

It has been reported that Donald Trump's name appears in the Epstein files 38,000 times.
That is a lie.
Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-Md.) has said that when he searched for Trump in the unredacted files, Trump’s name came up “more than a million times.”
We should be calling them “The Trump Files.”

I know this is about an anti-choice group, so you know, oh well, but as an example it still provides the same lesson: wear a mask to protests and large events. Infecting your allies is harmful and avoidable.

Where are all the idiots who have defended Trump against claims that he's a racist?
He's a virulent racist...and if you support him, you are, too.

NEW: A federal judge in Oregon issued a sweeping rebuke of the Justice Department’s nationwide push to seize state voter rolls, ruling that the department can no longer be presumed to be acting in good faith and warning that its conduct threatens voters and states’ rights.
Federal judge rules DOJ can ‘no longer’ be trusted in voter roll crusade
The judge pointed to a letter from Bondi to Minnesota that tied federal immigration enforcement to demands for voter data as the smoking gun.

happening this morning in Minneapolis -- ICE agents drawing guns on observers. I reiterate again that it is only a matter of time before DHS kills more innocent people in Minnesota. Congress needs to shut this shit down right now.

Last year Congress blew a $1.1 billion hole in DC's budget. Now they're trying to do it again.
Two new bills are attempting to take away nearly $700M of DC's own local tax money. They're anti-democratic, anti-family, and wrong.
Here are four ways you can help stop them: freedcproject.org/money

Two things happened last weekend.
1. A group of pro-Trump billionaires took control of TikTok's U.S. operations.
2. TikTok appeared to begin suppressing content about ICE's activity in Minneapolis and criticism of Trump.
