Jeffrey Epstein survivors say they haven't had any contact with the DOJ
As prices rise and job growth slows — due to Trump’s tariffs, his attempt to take over the Fed, and his attacks on immigrants — America will likely fall into the dread trap of “stagflation.” If nothing else brings him down, Trump's authoritarian control over the economy will.
Kinda hard to avoid the feeling that the military flyovers taking place over D.C. right now are intentional as ordered to interfere with the Epstein survivors press conference on the Hill. Survivors have paused their remarks until the flyovers pass.
military flyovers disrupt the Epstein victim press conference
Precisely what Pritzker told you is what going to happen in Chicago.
Exactly this.
KASIE HUNT: Over the summer you said, “There’s no vaccine that’s safe and effective”. Do you still believe that? RFK JR: “I never said that.” KASIE HUNT: “Play the clip.” RFK JR (clip): “There’s no vaccine that is safe and effective.” (March 2024) ht: @cwebbonline.com
Pritzker: "Any rational person who has spent even the most minimal amount of time studying human history has to ask themselves one important question: once they get the citizens of this nation comfortable with the current atrocities committed under the color of law, what comes next?"
The court dismissed the Trump administration’s argument that the migrants—who they allege are gang members—were part of an “invasion.”
Wow. Good thing Donald Trump wasn’t elected on the express premise that he’d bring prices down or anything.
Pritzker: "I refuse to pretend that any of this is normal ... I refuse to fall into the pundit trap that demands we sacrifice vital constitutional rights if it's being done in the fake guise of fighting crime."
Sen. Mark Warner, D-Va., the vice chair of the Intelligence Committee, says he was denied a meeting with career intelligence workers because Laura Loomer objected.
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.
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.
Pritzker: "When did we become a country where it's ok for the US president to insist on national television that a state should call him to beg for anything? Especially something we don't want. Have we truly lost all sense of sanity in this nation that we treat this as normal?"
National Guard deployed at the direction of Abbott with no permission from Pritzker is a foreign occupying force. This will destroy any respect left for the military. How do you think Texans would respond if the roles were reversed?

Portland, Maine crowd as Democratic US Senate candidate Graham Platner takes the stage today.
Platner: No one cares that you pretend to be remorseful as you sell out to lobbyists. Symbolic opposition does not reopen hospitals. Weak condemnations do not bring back Roe V Wade. Maine deserves better than Susan Collins.

The White House posts that the US has now taken in $8 Trillion in tariff revenue so far. Preposterous insane lies on an hourly basis.
Unemployment among Black people has reached the highest level since 2021: “I am in the fight of my life.”
Happy labor day from Trump regime ghouls who are trying to deport children in the dead of night. That they time it this way is it evidence enough that they know what they’re doing is illegal.
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.
I'm still waiting for the relentless onslaught of media demands for a press conference and calls to resign.
He’s dead or dying and they are trying to find something or someone to replace him that isn’t Vance (worthless pedophile) or miller (human thumb) We might see a mass case of “fell out of high window” soon in the admin as they scramble to replace trump
He won’t let the press anywhere near him. This is getting weirder and weirder.

CAP ECON: “We obviously have no particular insight into whether the Supreme Court will uphold .. If it did, “Treasury would .. need to return most of the now-close to $100bn in additional customs duties .. and there is a danger .. other countries would back-track on any preliminary agreements.”
Make all Americans equal under law. End agents' impunity. Abolish qualified immunity. Require agents pay for liability insurance.

DOGE wasn’t a cost-cutting venture. It was a data mining operation for private interests. Trump opened the gates to the castle from inside for invaders with bad and greedy intent to plunder and exploit.
If they were comfortable and unbothered they wouldn’t be gerrymandering like lunatics.
This. And you can gerrymander for plus 5-10, not for minus 20 like in Iowa.

When a president decides to disregard the will of the American people, you’re right, that’s the mark of authoritarian rule. The White House has notified Congress that it plans to cancel $4.9 billion in foreign aid funding that lawmakers had already approved, doing so without their consent.
This is how it’s done.

I've kept saying one of the most dangerous MAGA Horsemen is RFK JR due to the damage he will do to America's public health infrastructure and his promotion of reckless, baseless, and destructive anti-vaxx conspiracies. You're seeing it play out now, folks. Should be bigger news.
There’ll come a time where these goons will be prosecuted.
A monster.

This interview, which is also available to listen to as a podcast, provides a useful overview of some of the dangerous trends we’ve been seeing in recent months regarding federalization and militarization of state and local police functions.

If this oleaginous haircut thinks local crime rates merit a federal military intervention, then he should be leading the armored column down to his home state of Louisiana, which is one of the worst in the nation.

The escalating prices offer a glimpse of how Trump’s trade policy is starting to trickle down to American shoppers. For consumers fatigued by recent bouts of heavy inflation, the announcements portend another round of sticker shock when buying groceries & household goods. www.wsj.com/business/ret...
Pushing out top officials. Firing hundreds of lifelong public health experts. Trying to slash the CDC’s budget by billions. How is this “Making America Healthy Again”?
Q: “Do you personally approve the press office tweets that go out?” Gov. Gavin Newsom: “We have a kiII switch…” Q: “How many do you kiII?” Newsom: “Less every day.”
This man should not be overseeing the nation’s health. He is clearly insane.
Gupta: Here’s why this matters: 1. Because the FDA indications have changed, if I prescribe it to you, I’m opening myself up to a lawsuit. He directly signals that… 2. A pharmacist is no longer able to prescribe and administer a COVID-19 booster that doesn’t meet indications.
You know Gavin Newsom is on a trolling roll when even Fox's Jessica Tarlov is applauding him.
NEW: Yesterday, I posted that I was unable to get the COVID vaccine at my VA clinic, and many of you assured me that the new one would be available soon and that I was overreacting. I was not overreacting. I am no longer eligible for the vaccine. apnews.com/article/vacc...
As my pops used to say, “You can’t piss into the wind, son.”
Krasner: So, if what you have is a group of ICE agents, or even the military, coming into Philadelphia and committing crimes—assaults that are illegal, kidnapping, unlawful restraint, obstruction of the administration of justice—they can be prosecuted.
Whew! Sen. Susan Collins should be “very concerned” She showed up as the main guest at a ribbon-cutting in Searsport, Maine. It backfired. The crowd was not happy to have her: “Shame. Shame. Shame.”

The Fed was designed to be insulated from politics to maintain the stability and credibility of our financial system. The President is breaking the law, abusing his power, setting a dangerous precedent, and undermining our economy.
The battle of our day is no longer about Democrats versus Republicans or left versus right. The choice right now is democracy or dictatorship. And we're sliding faster than I ever thought possible into the latter. Everyone must choose which side they’re on.
This constant drama with Kilmar Abrego Garcia and the utter refusal by the Regime to just admit they fucked up and leave him alone is a perfect distillation of how incompetent and cruel they are.

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.
How is the President declaring “a lot of people are saying maybe we'd like a dictator" not the headline of every newspaper in America? And don’t say, what are newspapers?
National Guard, Feds & ICE Flood DC Streets, Random Bag Searches in Minority Communities Spark Outrage
one sign that the “unitary executive” is less the restoration of an older constitutional order and more the imposition of a radical new one is that allowing the president to act untethered from most legal or congressional limits has largely just served to plunge the country into disorder
Meiselas: Stop both-sidesing it, media. Stop trying to sow division within the Democratic Party when we literally have military invasions into American cities, aided and abetted by red state governors, who, again, are the takers who wouldn't exist without the blue states
How can any American watch this cringeworthy royal court cosplay and not want to throw up? "Thanks to your infinite wisdom, your majesty, we have given arms to the troops occupying the imperial capital. They are an extension of your holy will."
