Collins: The WH has denied that the drawing existed. They denied that it was Trump's signature. What do you what do you make of their defense here? Crockett: The fact that the president is a liar? I mean, he's consistent.

GOP: Being a woman is more disqualifying for being President of the United States than raping children. #EpsteinFiles
Khanna: I think VP Vance, should be asked to retract what he said, defaming the Wall Street Journal reporter, he said it was fake. Now we have the letter.
Trump wants farmers to go bankrupt so his billionaire buddies can buy up their farms for pennies on the dollar.
He lied
In 1775, we fought a revolution over taxes. In 2025, we just renamed them tariffs.
Massie: "I don't know if the Speaker misspoke when he said Donald Trump was an informant ... the Speaker needs to clarify that. And if it's a hoax, why was Donald Trump an informant to a hoax?"
The Epstein survivors understand this very well.
NEW: Epstein wired huge amounts of money to two people, and Trump and Bondi want to keep their names secret. www.nbcnews.com/politics/jus...

Blumenthal: They’ve exhausted the 120 days for Alina Habba, and so they’ve tried to make her acting US Attorney. But the statutes simply don’t authorize that. A judge has concluded she is without authority for any of the actions she’s taken. Everything she’s done could be challenged.
Andy Beshear on RFK Jr: “Secretary Kennedy should not be Secretary of HHS. This person is dangerous in that job. This is somebody who put a dead bear in the back of their car, put a whale head on top of their car, and recently swam in an unsafe area with one of his grandchildren.”
Spencer Kuvin, Epstein's victims' lawyer, says the FBI interviewed 40+ girls, some just 14, and prepared a 54-count indictment. Then came the secret plea deal that let Epstein walk. Those interviews are in the files. Kuvin says Alan Dershowitz scoured the girls' MySpace pages to smear them as liars.
Everything Trump touches dies.
Can someone in the legacy media explain to me how this is not front page news? How is it that only Democracy Docket is covering this unfolding authoritarian takeover? www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...
Bought! They are all bought! 😡
Trump isn’t coming to the rescue… 📌 Hundreds of Arkansas farmers are begging the federal government for emergency aid as their farm economy collapses. They’re on the edge of bankruptcy. Watch until the end. Wow!
The DOJ is refusing to release the subpoenaed documents...like every known abuser. Keep them quiet or call them liars. Our country is bending the knee to someone. It would be nice to know who that is.
Wyden to RFK Jr: "I hope that you will tell the American people how many preventable child deaths are an acceptable sacrifice for enacting an agenda that I think is fundamentally cruel and defies common sense."
Who is surprised?!
Kuvin: He didn’t keep a list of these people. What he would do is get calls from powerful men — men who lived in Palm Beach, for example. They would talk to Ms. Maxwell, and she would send a girl out. If you really to know who was involved, you would look at his phone books
The GOP is funded by wealthy pedos and predators. It’s why Magic Mike sent everyone home rather than allow a vote on releasing the Epstein files. It’s why Trump considers any push to release the files a hostile act against him.
👀
Fascinating that next year’s Senate race in South Carolina will probably come down to a woman who performs spinal procedures running against a man with no spine.
It’s really that simple.
Soybeans are collapsing because China isn’t buying them. The farm economy is in deep trouble. Because of our needless trade war that we are clearly losing. Maybe farmers will wake up
RFK lied to my face. He said he hadn’t fired any scientists. RFK has fired over 3,000 scientists from HHS. It’s shameful. He must resign.
Rise up America 🇺🇸
Pritzker: It appears they are amassing ICE officers… It’s been reported that about 300 officers are planning to come in and do what they did in LA — terrorize neighborhoods and cause mayhem. Their plan is to create enough chaos on the ground that troops will have to be called in
Ossoff: He never should have been confirmed by the senate and he needs to resign. It is one thing to be a skeptic or a reformer. It is quite another to be a fool…
Kavanaugh's statements make the problem worse, not better. If the reason SCOTUS is using cryptic shadow docket orders is because "five" of them can't "reach a consensus or a compromise on a particular issue that might be difficult," then that order should not be precedential —there's no majority.
CNN put together a clip of RKF Jr denying today he linked antidepressants and mass shootings, followed by a clip of RFK Jr last week linking antidepressants and mass shootings
Sen. Warren Daniel (R–NC, District 46) was caught trading stocks right on the Senate floor. Didn’t even wait for a break. Playing the market on the taxpayers’ time…pure abuse of power.
Bennet runs out of patience with RFK Jr and yells at him that "I'm asking the questions on behalf of parents and schools and teachers all over the United States of America who deserve so much better than your leadership! That's what this conversation is about."
RFK Jr: It's gonna be the biggest infusion of federal dollar into rural healthcare in American history BERNIE SANDERS: Yeah. You know why? Because you're cutting $150b for rural hospitals, you're putting $50b back. That's not an infusion. That's a loss of $100b.
RFK JR: You're making things up to scare people. And it's a lie. Hassan: With respect, I do not think I'm the one making things up.
WARNER: Do you accept the fact that 1 million Americans died from covid? RFK Jr: I don't know how many died W: You're the secretary of health and human services. You don't have any idea how many Americans died from covid? RFK Jr: I don't think anybody knows that W: How can you be that ignorant?
Meanwhile, back in reality…
Wyden on RFK Jr: "This committee's unwillingness to swear in this witness is basically a message that it is acceptable to lie to the Senate Finance Committee about hugely important questions like vaccines."
This man is a hot dog.
Can't find a single thing wrong with this...
Massie (R) says Republicans are being threatened by Trump to not support the release of the files. As one does when one is totally innocent!
People 💙 WARNING TO THE PEOPLE OF KENTUCKY!!!!!!!!! Ernest pine was released yesterday from prison! He did the most heinous act to a woman and left her to die ! Take a listen !! #DemVoice1 #DemsUnited #ProudBlue
Why sexual assault survivors don't report... ...the President of the United States will call them liars.
Trump called republicans and threatened them not to sign the discharge petition to release the Epstein files saying he would consider it a "hostile act" against him.
Pay very close attention. On the campaign trail, Trump promised to release the Epstein files. Now that survivors are naming him as Epstein’s close friend, he’s calling it a “hoax.” Miss me with that bullshit.
NEW: Gov Jared Polis (D) tells me he won't free President Trump's ally Tina Peters from prison to prevent more retaliation like Trump's removal of Space Command from Colorado. "Justice is not for sale," Polis said. #copolitics
Whenever I hear the word “Hoax” while Trump is speaking…I immediately think of the biggest hoax of my lifetime: the “assassination attempt” in Butler, PA.
More women have nearly bled to death during miscarriage under Texas’ abortion ban. Experts say the trend paints a troubling picture of the harms of unnecessary delays in care. “This is striking,” one doctor said. “The trend is very clear.” (Published July)

"For two weeks, the FBI assigned 1000 personnel to work 24-hour shifts to flag any records in which President Trump was mentioned" [in the Epstein Files].
Neguse: Facts matter. Under President Trump, Americans are paying more for their electricity than ever before. So spare us lectures about energy costs as Republicans preside over an economy over which everything is getting more expensive.
All kidding about this nonsense answer aside: The regime is asserting the power to murder without trial a boat full of people suspected of drug trafficking, who easily could have been intercepted and arrested instead. That is unconscionable and horrifying even assuming everyone aboard was guilty.
Marjorie Taylor Greene: He can prove it’s a hoax by releasing it… It’s not a hoax. Jeffrey Epstein was a convicted pedophile. The real hostile act was the abuse of underage girls. I never agree with MTG on anything. But here, she’s right. The survivors are not a hoax.
McGovern: "You guys think you work for Trump ... Let me repeat -- every single Republican on the Rules Committee voted against releasing the Epstein files. Every single one. We heard last night that all Republicans want full transparency. But that's just not true."
As a parent, aunt, uncle, grandparent, human being—if you don’t feel for this young woman and see the injustice here, you’re dead inside. Deported to Guatemala. She’s an honor student, a track star. She doesn’t even speak Spanish. And this isn’t the worst story out there, not by a long shot.
Massie (R-KY) is just on fire: "I don't know if that's precedented in this country to have a president call legislators to say that they're engaged in a hostile act, particularly when the so-called hostile act is trying to get justice for people who've been victims of sex crimes." #TrumpEpstein
#ProudBlue Pigs are flying & hell froze over because I’m actually cheering on MTG. Wtf?!?! She stood up tall & strong for these survivors. I appreciate her fight in this battle. I hope she does get all of the names & reads them off on the House Floor like she said she would. Let’s go!
Rand Paul: "The reason we have trials & we don't automatically assume guilt is what if we make a mistake and they happen to be people fleeing the Venezuelan dictator? ... off our coast it isn't our policy just to blow people up ... even the worst people in our country, they still get a trial."
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 !
I signed the discharge petition to release the Epstein files—as EVERY member of Congress should. If your Rep. hasn't signed, you need to ask why! Powerful men buried the truth to shield predators. The American people deserve answers, victims deserve justice, and this cover-up must end.
Giving a predator like Ghislain Maxwell a platform, moving her to a comfortable prison without receiving anything in return except to claim innocence and say you’re nice guy— when 100’s of children where victimized is a miscarriage of justice. Epstein survivor—“…She also participated in the abuse…”
An #Epstein survivor when asked if she had a message for Epstein's long time collaborator and friend Donald Trump. "I mustn't, I don't want to send a direct message to him. I'm already scared enough. Just pass the vote, listen to us, this is not a hoax, this not going to go away." #OpDeathEaters
"I thought they were going to make me board the plane like they did with the other kids from the shelter, but they asked me for my name and told me I was not on the list." A terrifying declaration from an unaccompanied child nearly removed to Guatemala straight out of Schindler's List.
“Several of us Epstein survivors have been discussing creating our own list of names. We know the names. Many of us were abused by them.”
SCARBOROUGH: We do Republicans keep promising to release these files and then keep releasing the same things and making fools of their followers? REP. ROBERT GARCIA: Because there is a massive White House coverup going on right now
🧵 Jess Michaels, a survivor of 27 years, just spoke with unshakable courage before the world: for herself, for Virginia Giuffre, & for every survivor silenced for too long. Her voice broke through decades of denial. The survivors will be silent no longer.
A victim of convicted sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein has revealed how a group of survivors is compiling a client list of their own.
Venezuela says the US and Erik Prince have plans to stage an attack on an ExxonMobil off-shore platform as a pretext to invade it…and normally that would be an insane claim but… www.latintimes.com/venezuela-sa...
This is how it's done. Come prepared. Interrupt them immediately when they lie. Confront them with the science. Show them the video. When they say anything that isn't true – call them out. Don't back down.

Deregulation is no friend of the people, but it's best friends with corporations.
REPUBLICAN @RepThomasMassie says the Epstein files *release* was bogus
Reid: Bondi is not a real AG. She just works for Trump. All these U.S. attorneys — what’s her name from Fox (who I hope is sober) — she’s not a real U.S. attorney. She works for Trump. They’ve gutted the DOJ. The DOJ doesn’t exist. The FBI doesn’t exist. It’s all just Trump’s employees.
Sing it.
Trump threatening members of Congress not to sign the Epstein files discharge petition saying it would be a “hostile act” against him is definitely something an innocent person would do. And scheduling a military flyover in the middle of the survivor press conference is also totally normal behavior.
REP. @yassaminansari.bsky.social on the bipartisan demand for the Epstein files: “This is the most corrupt administration in 🇺🇸 history, and this story shows it more than anything.”
It’s not just that the President of the United States posted a video of eleven people being murdered in international waters it’s that the President of the United States ordered the murder of eleven people in international waters so he could post a video of it.
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.
Trump and his greedhead cronies may get a big surprise in spite of their efforts to rig the 2026 election. They could find themselves swamped by a blue wave. Americans are wising up to the fact that Trump is turning the American dream into a nightmare.
If you're 60, 69.1% of all job growth since your birth occurred under Democratic administrations. If you're 45, that number is 74.7%. If you're under 28, the number is 100%. Happy Labor Day.
More like the squeezed $$ out of the middle and lower classes by putting ungodly tariffs on goods. All while exploding the deficit to fund tax cuts for people with so much money they don’t know which vacation home to jet off to this Labor Day.
Robert Mueller was diagnosed with Parkinson’s in 2021. We’re just learning about it now because he was asked to testify in the Epstein matter and won’t be able to. Gift link: www.nytimes.com/2025/08/31/u...

Americans once assumed their kids would be better off than they were. But business professor Scott Galloway says today's economic policies work to enrich Boomers and steal from younger generations.
