The remaining Epstein files must be worst than imagined. The outrageousness of ICE & stealing Oil are successfully sidelining the lawlessness of missing release deadlines.

Reporter: Did you speak with the oil companies before the operation? Did you tip them off?
Trump: Before and after. They want to go in and they’re going to do a great job.

USPS quietly changed its postmark rules — mail is no longer dated when you drop it off. The “official” date is when it hits automated sorting — sometimes days later
Which could have major implications for mail in voting — it’s a clever way to disenfranchise voters that’s going largely overlooked

Randy Rainbow absolutely clowning RFK Jr. is both peak comedy and tragedy. A neoclassical American Tragedy? 🇺🇸🎭
Here’s to living in a timeline so unhinged we need a musical parody (though it’s not much of a stretch) to make sense of it! For now we laugh, we’ll save the panic for a little later 😅

Devastating. Trump admin selling off historic public art to the highest bidder. "It is a tragic irony that murals meant to represent the contract between the government and its citizens would be sold to the highest bidder rather than preserved for posterity." www.alternet.org/trump-destro...
Trump admin selling off historic public art to the highest bidder
Painted figures haunt an empty building. A boy leaning on a pair of crutches. A father and son wandering a barren railroad track. A nuclear family at a picnic table. These poignant scenes were painted...

I've given my new Senator a lot of shit on here. But I don't think anyone with power has laid out the stakes of what we're facing as clearly as she does right here.
And if she's saying this, it's because she feels she must.

This is several days old. But amidst so much else id missed it. That’s a stunning number. No wonder they about-faced. Reminder of the power of consumers in oligarch era, not subject to the same kind of targeting.

Here's a photo of my friend and colleague, Jorge Bautista, getting shot in the face with a flashbang grenade. The ICE Agent is so afraid of Jorge (who was posing no threat) that he has wet himself. Please share this photo. Everyone needs to know what cowards ICE agents are.

Every SCOTUS, Speaker Johnson & his personal staff, & every GOP resisting the Epstein file release, should receive an actual copy of Virginia Roberts Giuffre's book Nobody's Girl to their offices or home. That would be quite a message if these enablers were flooded w/ copies from constituents.

🚨Trump’s team is plotting to declare a fake "national emergency" to hijack elections.
One operative says they can “take steps without Congress” and mandate state election rules.
Independent, state-run elections are the last firewall between democracy and authoritarian rule.
