WATCH — @jenpsaki.bsky.social : “Let’s go back to those 10 co-conspirators…”
@rokhanna.bsky.social : “Some of them were at parties where you had 13 & 14 year-olds paraded naked… They did disgusting things. The Epstein class needs to be held accountable. Release the files.”

If Marjorie Taylor Greene *really* cared about the Epstein victims, she would read the names of the perpetrators on the House floor (where she would have immunity) before she leaves office.

This makes me so nauseous
This is just one of the many stories we’ve seen or heard about resulting from the lawless and reprehensible actions of this administration. I’m glad this man is ok.
What is most disturbing — there are likely hundreds of more stories we haven’t seen or heard about.

TIKTOKER SHOT BY ICE HAS INDICTMENT THROWN OUT
Carlitos Ricardo Parias was shot in the elbow by ICE during an immigration arrest in October.
A judge tossed the indictment after finding the government violated his constitutional rights, and it looks intentional.

Did the United States really spend trillions of dollars on winning the Cold War, only for its president in 2025 take orders from a Russian dictator?
This is an earth-shattering humiliation for America of which its reputation may never recover.

What I always hear: “We can’t afford to pay our workers more than $15 an hour.”
What I never hear: “We can’t afford to pay our CEO millions of dollars a year.”
Funny how that works.

We’d like to share a remembrance for Betty Reid Soskin, the oldest serving National Park Service ranger in the country, who has passed away. Her life and work helped preserve history, expand whose stories are told, and inspire generations to come.

ICE pepper-sprayed this 1-year-old girl.
Once at the hospital, the doctor had to call in a poison control specialist.
They had never seen anyone that young pepper sprayed.
Another horrific story.
