The US admin aims to protect unfair/predatory business practices and propaganda platforms of the US oligarchy in the EU.

The end goal is to disunite the EU and then enslave the individual countries.

It never has been about "free speech".

Garcia: They are, on one hand, putting names of survivors in these documents that are not redacted. And in these same documents, they're taking extra time and being extra careful to redact the names of the coconspirators

How embarrassing it is to watch our once-esteemed Department of Justice behave like this.

I’ve heard most journalists and politicians say that Trump hasn’t been directly accused of wrongdoing or implicated in the Epstein Files.

But, there are repeated instances of Trump being directly named as a perpetrator—by victims and by Epstein. It’s not circumstantial, it’s direct.

If I decided it was too much bother to clean my house so I moved into an igloo in Antarctica for the rest of my life, you'd think I was awful stupid.
Tech bros deciding they'd lose too much profit if they stopped destroying the Earth because they can move to Mars someday is even stupider.

This is sinister. If you're wondering why so many people don't report sexual assault, this is why.
jesus the Palm Beach Police really sought arrest warrants against underage Epstein victims for coming forward and cooperating, and (purported) admitting to crimes, and it caused the victims to become uncooperative with the federal investigation

To paraphrase something Lawrence O'Donnell once said:

People wouldn't make jokes about the president if the president himself wasn't such a joke.

Unions protect workers from corporate interests. Their interests are not yours.
Tesla doesn't recongise Trade Unions.

Apple doesn't recognise unions.

Amazon is anti-union.

McDonald's is anti-union.

Starbucks is anti-union.

Google is anti-union.

Walmart is anti-union.

The big corporations are not on your side.

“Clinton is in the Epstein files!”

Great. Next time I come across a Clinton rally, someone wearing a Clinton hat, or flying a Clinton flag on their truck, I’ll be sure to let them know.

The rest of us want them ALL held accountable because we aren’t in a cult. Hope that helps.

"It's filled with lies. Only about the president. The rest might be true. Unless it's friends of his. Then it's not. But *anything* about *him* is a lie. He's innocent. It's all "rigged" against him. He didn't do anything wrong (yeah, I mean, we don't think it was wrong, but legal?). Pinkie swear!!!

Schumer: The law was written very clearly, and it did not allow all these redactions—this blacking out of everything. It did not say you can dribble them out over a period of months. These guys are full of shit. They should simply release it all now.

Yes, CECOT is a concentration camp in the guise of a prison. The Venezuelans were the first people to *ever* be released from CECOT since Bukele opened the prison in January 2023. Seriously. The first.
These are concentration camps. No other way to describe them. Truly horrific, and none of it surprising in the least.
30 minutes. Some deportees described sexual assault. Detainee describes the guard sexually assaulting most detainees. Lights left on all day. Prisoners not given clean water.

Now the DHS tour. Nobody spoke to the detainees. Noem's video was in a different area of the prison.

Mockler: My entire life, Republicans have been targeting minority group after minority group. Conservatives have been getting rich and gaining power off of this, but the second that certain Maga commentators are now the subject of this exact type of bigotry, they have a moral clarity about it.

The CBS 60 Minutes Doc confirms what we knew: The U.S. is currently using our tax dollars to imprison brown people with no criminal record in torture camps overseas.

This is a very astute observation. I hadn't thought about Keith Kellogg, he just disappeared from the scene. It makes perfect sense that Putin would want to fainthearted guy like Witkoff doing the negotiations. 🗽

I hear a lot of disgust for many older democratic elected officials and calls for primaries and challenges. First I was suspicious but as a 77 yo voter I have to agree. If a candidate isn’t working for the people they should leave by any means necessary.
