I hope the epstein victims TELL THEIR FULLS STORIES
This is not transparency. Nearly everything the GOP just “released” has already been released. This is a pathetic attempt by Republicans to buy them more time to bury this crisis. RELEASE THE EPSTEIN FILES.
Total destruction then seizure of citizens' assets and property is what I'm thinking their plan is. Chaos is the delivery method, and trump is the most reliable creator of chaos. www.independent.co.uk/news/world/a...
DO NOT ALLOW THIS TO BE NORMALIZED
Drug trafficking is not a capital crime; it doesn’t carry a death sentence. I genuinely cannot think of anything under U.S. law that would permit premeditated government assassination of people suspected of drug trafficking.
Deploying the military against Americans.
Today, we met and heard the stories of the victims of Jeffrey Epstein. What they revealed is not only the trauma of hundreds of young women, but a cover-up of epic proportions involving the wealthy, the well-connected, and even our own government. We will follow every thread until there is justice.
Ditto.
You should use the California National Guard to arrest ICE agents clearly committing crimes.
Meal Team Six cain't always see so good.
REP. MCGOVERN: “What’s going on is Republicans are terrified — And I think we all know why. The president doesn’t want to release all the files.”
Jeffrey Epstein survivors say they haven't had any contact with the DOJ
So they re-released most of the same shit they gave the GOP binder crew in February? Color me shocked. Never thought I’d say this, but I’m with Massie. Release the rest of the damn Epstein files, not this cherry-picked bullshit.
Read your history. Takes notes on what comes next. Prepare accordingly. I'm expecting a financial collapse soon.
What we’re witnessing in this country is textbook authoritarianism. Trump thrives on targeting those who are least able to defend themselves, exerting control and cruelty to tighten his grip on power. To think it ends here is naive. We cannot let this go on any further.
A reminder that Trump called Baltimore a 'hellhole' today to no controversy or scandalous headlines. Imagine a Democratic president calling a red state or red city a hellhole. Just imagine. Oh, the double standards.
Not on SO YOU THINK YOU CAN GOVERN!!!™
...and his response is to deploy troops to Chicago, See the pattern?
Do we know for sure it IS a drug boat? Because if we're just taking "the government's" word, I mean...
I feel like in the 1980’s/90’s this would be a major plot point in a Tom Clancy novel, and the operation would be carried out as an off-book, illegal black op, with various characters trying to cover it up lest they face congressional hearings. Now the President just announces it.
I’d like to believe Rudy’s story about the car crash, but I remember Shop Rite 2022.
The state of America: Cyndi Lauper changes the lyrics to Girls Just Want to Have Fun to Girls Just Want Fundamental Rights.....
hell, they were upset when Hunter Biden made money off HIS OWN PAINTINGS
I’m old enough to remember when we had 47,000 congressional hearings over Hunter Biden allegedly making money off his father’s name. Meanwhile, Trump’s corruption, in the billions, gets openly celebrated.
because DICTATOR
Probably not a great month to go out fishing in the Gulf now. The US military might be your judge, jury and executioner.
No notes
😡
Is that technically a WAR CRIME or just a HUMAN RIGHTS VIOLATION? Either way, it's illegal.
he WANTS to kill us all
THREAD
Nownow - what could POSSIBLY go wrong?
It’s corruption, plain and simple.
you'd think the governor of illinois basically going "we're being invaded by an authoritarian" would be something you'd see real easy on the front page of most everything an hour later
How 'bout subpoenaing ALL the fbi agents tasked with finding trump's name in the files.
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)
The calamity is the point. He thrives on destruction. THAT is who these idiots voted for.
Blow everything up, then steal it or buy the remains pennies on the dollar, then rebuild or "develop" it It's playbook for Gaza and for everything trump has ever done. www.independent.co.uk/news/world/a...
Please note that these immature psychos advocate "free banking". What is that, you may ask? en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free_ba...
OK I found this "primer" blog.uwsp.edu/cps/2024/09/...
I guess a cornered malignant narcicist will LITERALLY start a war (sounds like a civl one in Chicago AND an it'l on in Venezuela) just to distract from the evidence of their crime being seen.

A Democratic super PAC is launching a $700,000 digital ad blitz slamming Susan Collins for opposing a bipartisan bill that would ban members of Congress from trading stocks. This ad accuses Collins of “the worst kind of greed… using insider information to trade stocks.” Please WATCH and SHARE. 👀
you mean the ElephantIASIS not in the room
BREAKING: DC Circuit, 2-1, reinstates Biden appointee Rebecca Slaughter to FTC despite Trump attempt to fire her without cited cause. Majority: Millett (Obama), Pillard (Obama). Dissent: Rao (Trump) www.documentcloud.org/documents/26...
Is that where the expression "HOLY TOLEDO" came from?🤣
Oh, yes, Texas has a paper trail a mile long arguing that states have the right to fully deploy its state agents to defend its borders and to use lethal force against any invasion. That would inherently include Illinois using lethal force to repel an invasion by the Texas National Guard.
DO IT
Seems Trump might be trying an end-run in which Texas mobilizes its National Guard. That would be Texas invading Illinois, which as you can imagine is unconstitutional. One wonders about potential remedies, such as IL seizing assets of TX corporations like X, xAI, and SpaceX. Just a thought. 🤔
If it’s under Title 32 authority, the Texas guard remains under state control. That would mean that one state is deploying armed forces into the territory of a non-consenting state. And that’d clearly be a violation of the principle that states are co-equal, territorially limited sovereigns.
AKA - CIVIL WAR
I guess a cornered malignant narcicist will LITERALLY start a war (sounds like a civl one in Chicago AND an it'l on in Venezuela) just to distract from the evidence of their crime being seen.
That Pritzker press conference was... surreal, and I think marks a significant moment of escalation in the constitutional omni-crisis. This was the governor of a state saying plainly the Union itself is being torn apart and his state is being militarily invaded by an authoritarian regime.
In the coming days, we expect to see what's playing out in LA and DC happen in Chicago. These efforts are not about fighting crime or making communities safer. This is about Donald Trump testing his power and producing political drama to cover up his own corruption.
Two things can be — and are — true here: Bowser is not the champion DC needs in this moment, and The Washington Post has become a Trump rag. A newspaper that actually cared about the city in its name would not publish such an inflammatory, bullshit headline.
Can someone who's read the Project 2025 playbook please tell me what they are going to do to banking/the market? Especially in the "bankrupting" and "raiding & pludering" sense. I need to decide when to move my meagre savings offshore.
So I guess trump is "all-in" with not allowing overseas military to vote???
"rocket city" lol how INFANTILE
www.independent.co.uk/news/world/a...
Get in their fucking FACES, Chicagoans Shame them, call them what they are.
BREAKING: Gov. JB Pritzker says the Trump administration has sent the Texas National Guard to Great Lakes Naval Base outside Chicago, awaiting orders to deploy to Chicago. Trump administration officials will target Mexican Independence Day (Sept. 16) celebrations. @wttw.bsky.social
Pritzker says the press should be asking this question, too, and he's right.
Who wants to see those complicit losers? hey tRUmp -we're not in N Korea, fool.
Surely, the decision to hold a military spectacle at that time is just coincidence.
Over the long weekend, the Trump administration quietly tried to deport 76 unaccompanied children to Guatemala – ignoring laws protecting such minors from speedy deportations. Thankfully, a federal judge blocked the effort. The cruelty of this regime knows no bounds.
"Be loud for America."
I'm guessing he's start his invasion of Chicago tomorrow at around, oh I'd say, around 10:30 AM?
We will constantly remind you of your stupidity if you downplay this.
The president is sending the military to control American cities and if you're a reporter who's framing that illegal power grab as "pushing the boundaries of constitutionality" or "acting boldly to fight crime" or whatever, please go find another line of work where you won't get us all killed.
I know, I know, but: The president of the US saying, literally, "we're going in" in reference to sending the military to an American city for no reason beyond terrorizing the local population should be the most immediately impeachable shit imaginable
ILLEGAL
Sure. Trust the former heroine addict who had a brain worm eat what was still left in there.
I'm guessing he's start his invasion of Chicago tomorrow at around, oh I'd say, around 10:30 AM?
As many as 100 survivors of Jeffrey Epstein and other victims of sexual abuse are expected to attend a rally Wednesday in Washington, D.C. as a bipartisan Congressional effort gains steam to force the U.S. Department of Justice to make public its controversial files on the disgraced sex trafficker.
re-starting a life or something scientology
👇👇
yes Plan B, please
I hope people are constantly posting that on his twitter and ts feeds
Political theater.
What are they pumping into Donald Trump right now to give him energy to do this press conference that was scheduled for 2 pm but still hasn't started at 2:36 pm? Any guesses? This is what corporate media and MAGA did 24-7 with Biden. Perfectly fair to ask.
Here we go. Massie discharge petition with help from Ro Khanna, filed.
but - not a politicla move, by any means
Is that supposed to be an argument for why the move is NOT political? What a fucking moron.
and SICK
So it turns out Donald Trump really was too frail and elderly for a second term.
N Korea is out there laughing at him, along with China and russia
This sycophancy would make North Korea blush
The National Guard aren’t Trump's to command.
The largest SNAP cuts in history went into effect yesterday, eliminating or drastically cutting food assistance for millions of Americans. And it’s all to pay for more tax cuts that primarily benefit the super-rich. Trickle-down economics isn't just a hoax — it's cruel.
His "strategy" www.independent.co.uk/news/world/a...
😵💫🍊💩🤡
Today’s court ruling is what we’ve been warning about for months: Trump is unlawfully using the military to terrorize Americans, including kids and hardworking immigrants — many of whom have contributed to this country and are part of American families.
Since returning to office, Trump has: -Stripped 1 million federal workers of collective bargaining rights -Reversed Biden's minimum wage hike for federal contractors -Gutted OSHA and frozen enforcement of a regulation protecting miners from lung disease "Pro-worker" president.
