The President of the United States just essentially declared a war on Chicago because — wait for it! — Black and Brown people live here. This is not normal. This is not okay. And we are going to fucking fight back.
There is no democratic justification for withholding these files. This is a coverup.
Of course he did! That’s why he’s dead. It’s unbelievable that MAGA can’t see it.
Kennedy’s vaccine crusade isn’t about health...it’s about sowing chaos. Confusion equals control. Repeat until it’s tattooed on your brain: It. Is. Part. Of. The. Op. To. Destabilize. The. United. States.
Second Amendment for me but not for thee.
MASSIVE BREAKING: Congressman Raja Krishnamoorthi just revealed that an attorney told them today that an Epstein bodyguard was an intermediary between Epstein and the CIA in 2009. Release the Epstein files now !
If releasing the Epstein files would end your presidency, then your presidency needs to end.
Bless these brave women!
The 100 lowest-paying US corporations spent $644B on stock buybacks from 2019 to 2024. Buybacks artificially boost share prices and inflate CEO pay. The typical worker at these companies earned $35k last year. Meanwhile, the average CEO was paid $17.2M See the problem?
As a survivor, I can't think of a more fitting metaphor than a rapist creating loud noises with planes as a survivor tries to tell her story. I mean... just wow. Nevertheless, she persisted.
As Trump unleashes his authoritarianism across the country, it’s vital to know your rights. https://youtu.be/metN4EiDtmQ?feature=shared
"For so many years, it felt like Epstein's criminal behavior was an open secret." “We’re not going away. We’re not staying quiet. We’re not going to give up.” Annie Farmer (Epstein survivor)
Massie: "The Speaker of the House just offered a fig leaf to my colleagues. They're gonna vote on a non-binding resolution today that does absolutely nothing ... they're allowing the DOJ to curate all of the information that the DOJ is giving them ... the perpetrators are being protected"
It’s time for these victims receive justice. It’s time for Trump to stop protecting the rich & powerful & to start telling the truth. It’s also time for Republicans in Congress to find the courage to sign the discharge petition that would force a vote to release the Epstein files. (2/2)
We’re back in session after Speaker Johnson let us out early at the end of July, feeling the pressure from our subpoenas for the Epstein files. Today, @oversightdemocrats.house.gov sat down with survivors who endured horrific abuse. What we heard was beyond disturbing. (1/2)
She was assaulted less that two years ago? What is she talking about?
GOP Rep. Thomas Massie has filed a discharge petition to force the disclosure of Justice Department investigative files related to the late sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein.
Netflix is putting its money where its mouth is: 💰 $2M to back Newsom in the redistricting fight 📺 A deal for Sesame Street — new episodes and the full archive free to watch. That’s how you pick a side.
I had canceled it in July but just renewed my subscription yesterday.

My son suffered from migraines for years until his doctor recommended a supplement called Headache Free. You can buy it on Amazon. It absolutely worked for him. So sorry you’re going through that. I had them my whole life until my son was born. Weird, I know.
NEW: Trump administration lawyers say children have been "deplaned" after a federal judge temporarily blocked their deportation in an order affecting hundreds of other unaccompanied minors from Guatemala.

The fact that Gretchen passed a question that they literally have footage of her lying shows the test is all bullshit. #RHOC
I really liked her this season up until now.

VERY BIG TOP NEWS TODAY 🔝 🚁 Ukrainian drones destroyed two helicopters at Simferopol airport on August 30. 🔥 Voloshino near Armyansk (Crimea): One barracks burned to the ground, 6 boats were damaged ⚡️ There will be strikes deep into Russia. Forces and means are already prepared, — Zelensky 1/5
This is the most compelling case I’ve seen yet that America is no longer a democracy but an authoritarian state. Not a *soon-to-be* authoritarian state—a *current* one.
Reminder: Most mass shootings are carried out by cisgender men.
I do
Hey Mark- Told one of my chiropractic patients about Cost Plus Drugs last week and your mission after he complained a skin cancer medicine was going to cost him $1700- He found it on your website for under $20- for real. Best project ever. @costplusdrugs.com
Easy block. She’s a little obsessed.
I love that she calls herself an empath 😂
You’ve got issues honey.
Literally every other comment in my feed is from you wildly attacking Katie. I think you might need to go outside and touch some grass. Be blessed.
She is out of control! I’ve rarely seen someone hate on a specific cast member this much. I’m starting to wonder whether it’s Emily. 😂
Team Katie here and I’m definitely not being paid. The vast majority of comments I’m seeing all over social media are pro-Katie. These women are nasty and hypocritical.
Abbe Lowell and I represent CDC Director #SusanMonarez. Contrary to govt statements, Dr. Monarez has neither resigned nor yet been fired. She will not resign. We have issued the following statement:
Don't get it twisted. Trump is having the National Guard pick up trash to debase them. He hates the military. He is incapable of understanding anyone who would make sacrifices for the greater good. He thinks they are suckers and losers, and he's treating them as such.

Masked immigration raids don’t protect us. They hide abuse and strip away our dignity. Stand with me in demanding transparency and accountability by adding your name to this petition.
Mine has been frozen for years.
If they’ll have her, I’m sure she will.
Let’s all take a moment to reflect on how this just absolute alpha male sprayed on his hair for TV
They are sending soldiers into cities to prepare to intimidate people at the polls next year. They gerrymander because they can’t win on policy. They intimidate because even gerrymandering won’t work at this point.
Good news. www.cnn.com/2025/08/24/w...
They are totally bonded street dogs. Angelina Jolie has been critically ill in the vets. Bob missed her so much he stopped eating 3 days ago. Today was a very special day for them ♥️
Last week Trump said he likes the idea of starting a war so he can declare “no more elections” and stay in office forever. Today he just said “a lot of people” want “a dictator.” See where this is going?
Pritzker: This is not about fighting crime. This is about the President and his complicit lackey, Stephen Miller, searching for ways to lay the groundwork to circumvent our democracy, militarize our cities, and end elections.
Pritzker: To the members of the press who are assembled here today and listening across the country, I am asking for your courage to tell it like it is. This is not a time to pretend here that there are two sides to this story.
Yeah, IT’S everywhere because gay people exist everywhere. How did you Explain to your grandkids what a pimp is and what women are doing rubbing up on each other in YOUR videos hypocrite it’s simple gay people have kids with IVF or adoption. So disappointed nypost.com/2025/08/25/e...
Let’s be clear: deporting Kilmar Abrego Garcia to Uganda makes no sense—it’s not his home country. Nothing about this process has been fair. ICE is targeting him with cruelty. This is the weaponization of government, not justice.
F*ck‼️ Fort Bliss Army base used for a WWII Japanese internment is now the nation's largest ICE detention center.
Happy Sunday
They gaslit you all throughout the election.
“I was r*ped sometimes 3 times a day on that island… and I was not the only girl on that island… Ghislaine must die in prison, because I’ve been in hell and back for the last 17 years.” Listen to the survivors.
Garcia: What we got was complete bullshit. We demanded the full Epstein files, and that’s not what was sent over. The White House cover-up clearly continues. What they sent us was 33,000 pages of documents that have already been in the public domain.
Same! She’s by far the most likable person on the cast. 100% Gretchen fed her that story and she and Slade are lying.
Bot 😂
Where the hell are the @democrats.org @schumer.senate.gov @booker.senate.gov @aoc.bsky.social

Russian Telegram channels report that operations at Pulkovo Airport have been disrupted due to a drone attack on Russia's Leningrad region.
people's brains are fried, man. lived under right-wing govts for near-on five decades, bleeding out of the arse from corporate greed, living in a privatised shithole shell of a country and they think the left is out of control because they can't say the n-word in public
I have worked with a lot of adoptees and I’ll never understand that rejection. The child didn’t ask to be born.

Regardless, you’re still a dumpster fire. Sorry if facts make you cry.
What does that mean?

Virginia Giuffre’s lawyer Sigrid McCawley reacts to the Maxwell transcripts, saying Maxwell “repeatedly and brazenly lied” to the government and is trying to “recreate history.” Full statement
Irony.
We can see all your replies, genius. Does Putin give you a bag of potatoes for each comment? 😂
I’ve seen so many people spreading the misinformation that PBS is shut down or is shutting down. The Corporation for Public Broadcasting has been shut down and PBS has been defunded. HOWEVER!!! PBS still exists. It is more important now than ever that you donate to PBS if you can.
The pace of our transition from Republic to Autocracy continues to accelerate, with all the same pretexts and justifications we’ve seen in other places throughout history for each incremental move. We even have the enablers and quislings that are a necessary precursor.
UPDATE: Fox News reports that ICE told Kilmar Abrego Garcia they are going to deport him to Uganda on Monday.
NEW: A federal judge in Miami has ruled that operations at the controversial detention facility Alligator Alcatraz must begin to wind down, ordering state and federal officials to stop transferring detainees there and relocate current detainees within 60 days.
We’ve posted about this before, but now it’s official a federal judge has made it clear: Alina Habba has been serving as New Jersey’s U.S. attorney without legal authority for over a month.
Every week she looks worse.

Can you describe the president's perspective on taking a stake on Intel in exchange for federal grants? Are we expecting to see the white house make similar arrangements with other companies? Leavitt: It is a creative idea that has never been done before China, Russia, NK… all are cry-laughing
