Remember her name: Aliya Rahman

Her testimony is everything and it deserves to be heard, by everyone. Decide for yourself.

It’s powerful. It’s gut-wrenching. And no one should have to survive what she did.

ICE MUST GO‼️

I read thousands of pages of Epstein files this weekend trying to understand what he wanted out of his meeting with 4chan's Christopher Poole. Here's everything we know about Epstein's plans to dismantle the internet and, eventually, democracy.

happening this morning in Minneapolis -- ICE agents drawing guns on observers. I reiterate again that it is only a matter of time before DHS kills more innocent people in Minnesota. Congress needs to shut this shit down right now.

Four weeks ago: Trump floated the idea of canceling future elections
Three weeks ago: “When you think of it, we shouldn’t even have an election”
Yesterday: “The Republicans ought to nationalize the voting”

But it’s not just rhetoric: all of this has come against a backdrop of concrete action.
“Republicans ought to nationalize the voting”: Trump eyes radical power-grab
Those concerned about democracy don’t have the luxury of simply shrugging with indifference to the president’s latest conspiratorial nonsense.

The Justice Department abandoned its corporate enforcement responsibilities and is instead prioritizing probes into Trump's political enemies.

Trump is weaponizing the DoJ for petty personal grudges.

This is a disgrace.

Peter Thiel has been open about this for a long time. Trump is a way to break the republic, which can then be replaced by “free economic zones” with oligarchs as dictators and tech as a taskmaster for helpless humans without any rights. (1/2)
Definitely seems like they destroyed the country on purpose.

ICE took custody of two children who attend the same Minnesota elementary school as Liam Ramos, the detained five-year-old, according to school officials.

Their mother was first taken into custody during a court appointment for her ongoing immigration case.

In the last 48 hours, Musk's reactions to the Epstein release show exactly why he bought Twitter.

He's used the platform to call coverage of his emails with Epstein as "lies," elevated his fans who have defended him, and gotten positive reinforcement from his AI chatbot.

NEWS: An Abu Dhabi royal backed a secret $500 million investment in Trump’s crypto company, World Financial.

This was four days before the inauguration, per WSJ.

Months later, the United Arab Emirates won access to tightly guarded American AI chips.

In Springfield, Ohio, people are preparing in advance of a “large deportation” promised by the president. To all appearances, the city is two or three days from a federal ethnic cleansing, grounded in a hate campaign organized by the vice-president and American Nazis.

This was a bribe.

UAE royals gave the Trump family $500 million, and Trump, in his presidential capacity, gave them access to tightly guarded American AI chips.

The most powerful person on the planet, also happens to be the most shamelessly corrupt.

The Trump administration is undertaking one of its most blatantly authoritarian actions yet, deploying the FBI to seize voting records from the 2020 election in Fulton County, Georgia, a heavily blue area that has been an epicenter of the president’s conspiracy theories about the election he lost.
