Wyden has been the main voice pointing at the large trove of US Treasury documents that exist on Epstein that haven't been released either.
Epstein made 4,725 wire transfers of over $1 billion dollars, with no legitimate purpose... And yet was never audited by the IRS?
Shady all the way down.

Insidious Waylon Smithers is the worst.
More specifically, he's lying that the SAVE Act is "voter ID." It creates a requirement at the time of *registration* to vote which is deliberately calculated to make traditional voter registration drives impossible. It is not what people usually think of and many states have, ID check at the polls.
Mike Johnson lies that voter ID "is an 80 or 90 percent issue on the polling nationwide"

The worst of us have all the money and they’re using it to do the worst things imaginable so that they can accumulate even more money. The rapacious accumulation of wealth beyond what is necessary to have what you want is a psychological disorder akin to hoarding physical objects.

Meta now forcing all employees to use AI tools and tying it to employee performance, according to @theinformation.com.

The overflow room at the Surprise City Council meeting has also filled up (it has a 500 person capacity). I can’t tell how many are still outside but we can hear them chanting “ICE out” in here so it seems like quite a lot.
