It's now been 15 days since the Trump Administration was supposed to furnish ALL of the Epstein Files per (H.R. 4405) Epstein Files Transparency Act passed by congress on November 18th of last year.

I'm thinking he Invaded Venezuela to distract everyone. Why would that be? Guilt? 🗽

1/ And so we begin the 250th anniversary of our Declaration of Independence by invading a sovereign nation contrary to our own and international law and reminding the world that the United States is now an outlaw and rogue danger to the world community, cruel to its own citizens

If Nicolás Maduro stands trial in the United States and gets convicted of 34 felonies, does that mean he’s qualified to be our next president now?

Just checking what the standards are these days.

Marco Rubio is reportedly saying Maduro will stand trial in US courts.

Which means it’s now the US administration’s position that US courts can hold foreign presidents, but not the US president, accountable for crimes.

This is Adelita Grijalva. She was elected 43 days ago.

Republicans still refuse to swear her in because she is the final vote needed to release the Epstein Files.

You don't have to judge Columbus by the standards of today. His tenure as governor of Hispaniola was so horrific that he was dragged back to Spain in chains to answer for his many crimes.

Plus he never set foot on any land that would ever be a part of the United States of America.

Today, we mourn the memory of those we lost on September 11, 2001.

We also come together to honor the brave heroes, like our first responders, who risked their lives that tragic day to save countless others. Their sacrifice can never be repaid.

We will never forget.

This isn't an "administrative error." Every single federal employee receives record keeping training.

The next administration needs to prosecute everyone responsible for this. Yes, there are bigger abuses we'll need to prosecute too, but records are paramount.
The US Administration is now deleting its internal communications, in brazen violation of the Federal Records Act, in order to conceal its other illegal acts.

Those entrusted to enforce our Congress’s laws sit, simply watching this happen, flaccid and impotent.

Democrats should respond by gerrymandering their states. If Supreme Court is fine with Republicans doing it in Texas, then do the same and pick up more seats. Take on fascists.

The GOP just pulled a political heist.After announcing they were done ‘til September, they snuck a bill through committee that could obliterate worker rights. H.R. 1319 affects EVERYONE with a job, union protections, or employer health insurance #Voices4Victory #DemVoice1 #USDemocracy #ProudBlue

When I was little, the U.S. military came to our home at gunpoint and took me and my family away. We were imprisoned for years in barbed wire camps simply because we were Japanese American. I have spent my life telling that story, hoping it would never be repeated.

Great reporting by the NYT. It underscores that if you're planning to move this decade, you should think twice before moving anywhere that often experiences extreme weather—as the feds now have far less ability to track it to protect you from death or property loss. Why? Because Trump hates America.

I will be damned if I allow a bunch of Confederate-waving January 6th apologists give the American people a lecture on flag waving.

There is ZERO reason to enter an argument about patriotism with people who still worship traitors to America 150+ years later.
