@democracynow.org had @adelitaforcongress.bsky.social and me on together to explain that she is not being sworn in because she is the 218th signatory for the release of the Epstein files. Swear her in today.

I can’t believe I have to say this, but historically, masked men who kidnap families in the middle of the night are usually not the good guys.

It's also laughable that they think insurance covers anything as it is, let alone would shell out more funds for someone's ethnicity.

A Republican Trump supporter pleads guilty to child sex abuse charges. Think it’s Epstein? Think again.

MAGA is avoiding talking about it, but I'm covering the criminal case of TX megachurch pastor, Robert Morris, & why Republicans are the biggest hypocrites of them all.

A talented protester played the theme to the “Schindler's List” with his violin at Portland’s ICE detention center last night.

I hope the world gets the message.

Rogan helped trump in all 3 elections. He can't hide from that. He knew exactly who and what he was, what trump planned on doing. I hope he loses everything

Federal agents are overtly abusing their power to try to intimidate advocates and elected officials. We need ICE out of Illinois immediately and justice for people like Ald. Jessie Fuentes who are defending their communities.

They can keep demanding these things, but it's a statistical fact that those with a higher education are more left leaning than right. If they want to feel like they're seen in schools, I suggest preK. That's where crayons are an acceptable writing tool

First they shut down the government. Then they tampered with federal workers’ emails to shift the blame. This is corruption in broad daylight.

Education Department employees surprised to find their email automatically changed to blame Democrats for shutdown

Five furloughed employees told NBC News they had put up nonpartisan out-of-office messages, only to see they were changed — without their permission — to partisan ones.

Incompetent gop lawmakers, like Nancy Mace, care so little for the lives & health of Americans that they'll eagerly peddle dangerous medical misinformation in the hopes of getting a pat on the head from the orange.
