I would 100% rather have a random person sent to CECOT spend the night at my house than Stephen Miller.

I will always shit on Bill for a lot of things, but by waiting a few days to let the right work its way into a false narrative and then screwing them out of it it’s actually the smarter play.

Just as Ellison intended - he hired Weiss to destroy CBS news. The goal is to become the Trump Propaganda Network.
BREAKING: CBS’ “60 Minutes” abruptly drops a segment about Trump deportees sent to a torture prison in El Salvador — 2 hours before air time.
CBS is now in Fox News territory – COMPLETE GARBAGE.

We know there are hundreds of good Americans at the FBI and DOJ who also want to see justice for Epstein’s victims and survivors.
To anyone who worked hard on the files and is now seeing their work being hidden by their own DOJ, there are whistleblower protections.

The best part of all the redactions, Pam Bondi could not have made Trump look more guilty if she tried. The right can spin this any way they want and the only come back by anybody has to be, "They redacted his name after they released his name and you are defending a pedophile."
🚨 The DOJ appears to have redacted Donald Trump’s name from the allegations made in this exhibit in the Epstein files.
Trump’s name was in the original release. Now, it’s blacked out.
See for yourself.

The White House claims the vote to rename the Kennedy Center was “unanimous.” That is false. I was muted on the call and denied the opportunity to speak or register my opposition. That is not consensus. That is censorship.

This is a photo from the Vanity Fair article. Notice how they have to arrange it so Stephen Miller is on the end, so it isn’t obvious that there is no reflection of him on the mirrored table.🧛

Epstein files are due Friday, just so everyone is clear about the Wag the Dog that is also about oil that is also about mass deportation.

Two days after the House of Representatives voted to restore collective bargaining rights to federal employees, Trump moves to illegally end collective bargaining for TSA workers.
Trump may be the most anti-union president in American history.

Congratulations to every House Democrat and 20 Republicans for voting to restore the constitutional right to a union for over a million federal employees. The Senate must pass this bipartisan provision immediately.
All workers, including federal employees, have the right to be in a union.

Immigrants ‘plucked out of line’ at citizenship ceremony at Faneuil Hall “the cradle of liberty”.
If you ever claimed you want immigrants to do it the right way, this should outrage you. On the other hand, If you think this was okay, you need to come to terms with your white nationalist views.
