Feds have repeatedly claimed 115+ federal police (25% of force) had to be deployed to Portland over the summer to quell violence. Oregon lawyers found on discovery this was not true and are asking 9th Circuit to reverse Monday decision because feds lied:

Incredible. Trump drags the reputation of a highly regarded economist, first Black woman to be a Fed gov, thru the mud claiming she committed mortgage fraud. But the documents his appointee to run Fannie & Freddie got for him & that he said showed fraud don’t actually say that.

Thanking God for sparing you in a natural disaster is a bit like sending a thank you note to a serial killer for murdering the family next door.

Cash bail creates a two-tiered system of justice where the wealthy can buy their way out of jail.

Cashless bail lets judges detain people based on flight risk and community threat, rather than financial means, and does not raise crime rates.

Don't fall for Trump's lies.

Donald Trump says he tells it like it is.

But, when he says inflation is “cooling where we want it.,” the reality is wholesale inflation just hit its highest in 3 years.

Meanwhile, 44% of families say they’ll need to take on debt just to send their kids back to school.

"Pete Hegseth doesn’t want to talk about his “hugely ambitious” missile defense project.

Maybe that’s because “all anyone knows about Golden Dome is that it will be an expensive, all-azimuth defense against everything that flies,” @radiofreetom.bsky.social argues:"
Trump Should Not Try to Revive Reagan’s Dream
National missile defense is still impossible—and expensive.

Brennan to Greer: "The US has a trade surplus with Brazil. So it doesn't seem to be consistent here when you have the president put 50% tariffs on Brazil, one of the highest of any country, & at the same time Trump is bringing up things that have nothing to do with trade when he's justifying them."

If you’re an immigrant with legal status who’s committed 0 crimes you can be sent to a torture prison where you’ll be raped and dehumanized.

If you’re old pals with Trump and ran a pedophile ring you get sent to a cushy minimum security prison despite being ineligible because you’re a sex offender.

The Trump regime is blocking release of the Epstein files after promising their release.
It's giving preferential treatment to child molester Ghislaine Maxwell in hopes she won't reveal Trump's connection to the scandal.
Keep reminding people about this. It matters.

MORE from Virginia Giuffre's family:

"The government and the President should never consider giving Ghislaine Maxwell any leniency."

“Ghislaine Maxwell is a monster who deserves to rot in prison for the … violence and abuse she put not just our sister Virginia through, but many other survivors."
BREAKING: New statement from Virginia Giuffre's family.

"It was shocking to hear President Trump invoke our sister and say that he was aware that Virginia had been 'stolen' from Mar-a-Lago. It makes us ask if he was aware of Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell's criminal actions."
