Heartbreaking thread 😤😭
I found the first investigative file from the first complainant against Epstein in 2005.
There are descriptions from the officer, over several interviews of the girl, of her pulling her knees up on the chair, drawing doodles, & the officer high-fiving her to keep her calm as she speaks of horror.

Maher Tarabishi was detained in October during a scheduled check-in at an ICE facility.
He was the primary caretaker of his son, who died last week.
The family is seeking Maher's release so he can attend his son's funeral.
ICE reportedly denied the request.
Unimaginable cruelty.

Naming someone is not doxxing. They aren’t undercover. They aren’t intelligence agents overseas. This is outrageous - we are supposed to be a free Republic and these people want an authoritarian police state. Lawsuits should be filed & ranking Dems in Congress should act.

Pam Bondi just sent a letter to Minnesota officials saying ICE will leave if the state turns over its voter database to Trump.
Guess what? This has never been about safety or immigration. It’s a pretext for Trump to take over elections in swing states.

If you want proof that Trump is going to try to rig the elections, here it is:
In a letter to Gov. Tim Walz Saturday, Bondi claimed that Walz could “restore the rule of law” by complying with a list of demands, including giving the Department of Justice (DOJ) the state’s voter registration records.

Trump one week ago: "It's a good thing for him [Carney] to sign a trade deal. If he can get a deal with China, he should do that."
Trump today: "If Canada makes a deal with China, it will immediately be hit with a 100% Tariff against all Canadian goods and products coming into the U.S.A."

We are searching for the woman in a red jacket who captured the ICE situation on video. We heard she was taken by federal agents. If anyone has updates, let us know.

Here’s one video shared with us of the state-ordered execution. The man was beaten in the head with a gun, shot once, then shot five more times while on the ground. State-ordered executions continue.

The text that was taken down read that President Trump was “impeached twice, on charges of abuse of power and incitement of insurrection after supporters attacked the U.S. Capitol on January 6, 2021, he was acquitted by the Senate in both trials.”

At a White House roundtable, Donald Trump presses a Halliburton executive about why his company left Venezuela. The answer is blunt. They were forced out in 2019. By U.S. sanctions. His sanctions.
This is what policy amnesia looks like in real time.

The level of pettiness here is almost unbelievable. According to sources close to The White House who spoke to WaPo, Donald Trump reportedly soured on supporting Venezuelan opposition leader María Corina Machado after she accepted a Nobel Peace Prize instead of insisting it be awarded to him.
