The Saudis are meeting with Trump tomorrow. There is a lot they want from the US govt. And they have been enriching Trump and his family over the past several months with one deal after another to make sure they get it. Something tells me they will get what they want.

For far too long, the story of Jeffrey Epstein has revolved around whether Donald Trump sexually abused an underage girl, committed other contemptible acts, or corruptly covered it up

When it should have always been about the victims

"Strongmen" by @ruthbenghiat.bsky.social is an invaluable read right now. The whole playbook we're seeing in the US is laid bare for all of us to see.

"On Tyranny" & "On Freedom" by @timothysnyder.bsky.social are also both must reads given the current moment.

Ro Khanna has a history of sucking but I must give flowers to this because he just said it out loud directly instead of passively "this is not who we are" shit we've seen from other Dems. Good stuff.
Ro Khanna: "They're making comedy illegal. Brendan Carr pressured ABC to cancel Jimmy Kimmel, and Disney cancels Jimmy Kimmel. This canceling from an administration that lectured us about cancel culture. That's why today I'm introducing a motion to subpoena Brendan Carr."

What does this tell you about the Trump administration’s health policies? Everything.
IT'S OFFICIAL: Connecticut, Maine, Massachusetts, New Jersey, New York State, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island and New York City have formed the Northeast Public Health Collaborative.

The collaborative will issue their own vaccine recommendations and coordinate public health efforts.

According to the New York Times, "The text exchange between Mr. Robinson and his partner was reproduced by prosecutors in the charging document."

Reproduced? So no one has seen the actual messages? No screen shots? No time stamps? Also, weren't they on Discord and not SMS? 1/

The point isn’t what anyone said or didn’t say, but the overt government censorship endorsed by an entire party, most institutions, and a burgeoning police state where Americans are reporting people who don’t follow the mandatory patriotic line

This is not normal, folks

It’s not American

“He cheated on the golf course…
He cheated on his taxes…
He cheated on his wives…
He cheated on democracy…”

If you turn on Fox it is all about MS-13, murderers and rapists, but this is the reality.
Men in plainclothes, one in a balaclava, raided the Charlottesville courthouse today. They abducted a local painter whose case (allegedly fighting with his roommate) was being dismissed, and another who was there paying fines. They took them away in unmarked vans.

Today Donald Trump attacked me by name in a speech at the Department of Justice. Of course I am worried, but courage comes from acting in spite of being worried. I have made my choice: I will continue to speak out, I will continue to litigate, I will continue to stand tall.

I will never bow down.
