Anyone still serving in the Trump Administration must reckon with the reality that, when the government has previously perpetrated egregious miscarriages of justice, history has not been forgiving to those who’ve gone along, however reluctantly. www.newyorker.com/magazine/202...
History’s Judgment of Those Who Go Along
Some civil servants and senior officials in the Trump Administration are experiencing bouts of conscience.

So the president designates groups of unnamed and unknown people as “terrorists”, then the Secretary of Defense decides who fits under that extremely broad definition, then the US military kills them, and that’s all we are allowed to know.

To make Trumps “peace plan” a bit easier to understand..

He’s basically forcing Great Britain to surrender to the Nazis in 1940, cut it’s military in half, give up territory, allow the nazis to dictate it’s future security, keep the stolen kids and keep all the land it stole and murdered for..

I remember reading a bunch of corporate media stories about Biden after he got new shoes with better support. Which, by the way, he did after he fractured his foot. bsky.app/profile/atru...

No matter how hard Trump tries to distract you, he can never silence Virginia Giuffre's story. We are joined by Virginia Giuffre's family and co-author to ensure her Epstein story is never forgotten. Watch the episode here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BJKPTymLsj8

Today, Mike Johnson will keep the House adjourned for the 85th day out of the last 97.

12 days of work in over 3 months.

With full pay and benefits.

The senate has been working, so this is not about the shutdown.

It is about avoiding a vote to release the Epstein files.

New in PN: The DOJ's "election monitoring" is really voter intimidation

"If Hispanic voters are no longer in the GOP fold after watching Trump’s ceaseless, country-wide violence against immigrants, the administration’s solution is to make sure they can’t cast a ballot."
The DOJ's "election monitoring" is really voter suppression
Trump's Big Lie has become government policy.

A while back I wrote that Trump had made real progress on every item on the authoritarian checklist except elections, because of state control over running elections. But it was clear that he would use the legal system and state co-partisans to also gain control over elections.

Jeffries: “Republicans acted with great urgency to swear in two right-wing members of congress to do in the American people… What is the delay with respect to Representative-elect. Grijalva? Anything to do with Republicans continuing effort to hide the Epstein files? Inquiring minds want to know.”

Trump is much weaker than he looks. He's always been a bloated, sloppy, low-IQ flaccid failure. Now he’s a bloated, sloppy, low-IQ flaccid failure desperately trying to distract from all that by attacking US cities with our military and sending his Justice Dept after political opponents.

"I haven't had time to look into it"

He hadn't been at work he sent them all home!
Mike Johnson: "Federal workers, it's my understanding that the law is that they would be paid. There is some other legal analysis floating around. I haven't yet had time to dig in and read that."

I am so tired of our media letting weaselly little shits like Mike Johnson slide on these evasions.

Why *aren’t* you aware of blatant violations of the Constitution, Mike?! What makes you at all capable of holding this job?? Why should anyone believe a word coming out of your shitty little mouth??
Q: Do you agree that the mayor of Chicago and governor of Illinois should be in prison?

MIKE JOHNSON: Should they be in prison? I'm not the attorney general. I'm not following the day to day on that

NEW: Comey is going to file selective and vindictive prosecution motion to dismiss AND he will challenge the legality of Halligan’s appointment! There’s more, too… so glad @annabower.bsky.social is there to bring us the whole story! Thread below with details:
The judge also set an initial schedule for pre-trial motions.

The first set is expected by Oct. 12. Per Comey’s defense counsel, that batch will include motions to dismiss for selective and vindictive prosecution, as well as a motion challenging the legality of Halligan’s appointment as US attorney

Mike Johnson is delaying the certification of Adelita Grijalva’s victory in Arizona’s special election last week.
This move prevents Democrats from securing the final signature needed to force a House floor vote and release the Epstein files.
