I can't believe Jake Tapper doesn't see how ridiculous he seems for not pushing for the truth here.

“The mainstream press is still in self-flagellation mode over how they purportedly ‘ignored’ former President Joe Biden’s decline. (In reality, they never stopped talking about.) But this soul-searching is apparently only backward looking and exclusive to Democratic presidents.”
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.
FINALLY!
The "concern" Susan Collins is feeling today might finally be legitimate. The crowd for her Democratic challenger:
We are living in upside down times.
Not Trump!
CEOs are trying to convince you that quiet quitting is worse than wage theft, while they plan on replacing you with a robot. Unions know better. Happy Labor Day Weekend.
Hero!
During the spring of 2020 crime rates & highway accidents were at all time lows, ICE occupation & covid pandemic have things in common, including the mask wearing.....
She sounds nuts!
Looking very AI
😂
Hell yes!
We should all wear Maga hats to the polls. Lol.
I don’t think his health will permit it.
Glad DeJoy is gone, hope the new guy is not messing with the system.
Hopefully the dumba$$$ will meet his maker soon.
These facts: “In 2019, an immigration judge granted him withholding of removal status due to the danger he would face.”
Distraction..Epstein Case..Serious Health Problems..Epstein victims to Speak in Washington this weekend.
If any previous President tried to fire a member of the Fed he would have been impeached and removed from office in 72 hours.
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.
💔 83 kids dead. A preventable measles outbreak. Anti-vax ads and RFK Jr.’s visit made it worse. Great reporting by @AtlantaNewsFirst shows Samoa is a warning for every American parent. www.atlantanewsfirst.com/2025/08/24/t...
It would be the end of the Nobel.
Send the troops to Mississippi!
Stuart Stevens on National Guard deployment: "The murder rate of Jackson, Mississippi is 3 times that of D.C.... the whole thing is complete fraud"
Truer words were never said.
The “national emergency” is that the president is deranged, not rational, incapable of running our country. He has surrounded himself with power hungry sycophants and utterly inept idiots
What can we do? Where is the pushback? Well, ICYMI, here is what it looks like. So I thought I would do something I rarely (if ever) do… share the whole damn thing. No snark. No spin. Just the whole speech. open.substack.com/pub/charlies...
"For those people out there who ... say, 'Well, I just don't like those people either' ... You could be next. ... This is not about any one individual, this is about our rights as Americans, and our right to have a justice system where choices about prosecuting are made without fear or favor."
Just no!
My current favorite bit of right-wing Christian hypocrisy is Ken Paxton, a man whose wife is divorcing him for adultery, forcing Texas schools to unconstitutionally post "Thou Shalt Not Commit Adultery." www.houstonchronicle.com/news/houston...
Pritzker is America’s Governor!
Truth Art! #arresttrump #art
Between Kilmar Abrego Garcia and the DOJ official who tried to extort a plea out of him with threats of trafficking him to Uganda, there is someone who committed a crime. But that someone isn't Kilmar Abrego Garcia.
Bot
Because he embarrassed them
#ICE isn't "deporting" immigrants, it is kidnapping them. #DOGE isn't "fixing" the government, it is dismantling it. #Trump isn't "helping" Americans, he is retaliating against them. #PamBondi isn't "upholding" the Constitution, she is ignoring it. #FuckTrump #Resist #Felon47 @forbes.com

He’s not hiding that trashy hat!
There’s no way this department of justice does anything are we kidding ourselves? That’s the real travesty, this DOJ is complicit.
It will be a cold day in hell when this department of justice does anything.
I guess MAGA folks only eat eggs
Trump said prices would drop on Day One. I guess he doesn’t eat any vegetables.
The people who got everyone here simply aren't going to be the ones to get us out.
They want us fighting so we never notice who is stealing from us all. Don’t get lost in the circus.
He’s wanted to declare martial law from day one. Bypass all checks and rule as a tyrant. Many have speculated how he’d do it. Now his gambit is clear. DC was a test. He’s using manufactured crime stats to send troops into blue states & cities. This is not a drill. Democracy is at defcon 1.
Ghislaine Maxwell told Todd Blanche that Epstein started out paying her $25K, then increased it to $250K over the years, but court records show he sent her over $30M. That’s quite the discrepancy—or cover-up.
This regime never stops. Court records filed Saturday reveal that immigration officials intend to deport Kilmar Abrego Garcia to Uganda, after he rejected a deal that would have sent him to Costa Rica in exchange for staying in custody and pleading guilty to human smuggling charges.
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.
In case anyone is still wondering why Bolton was raided
Turns out the Justice Department sent Congress the Epstein files, but they were the same ones already made public.
The fact that authoritarians oppose art tells you everything you need to know about how important art is
The Maxwell interview is to the Epstein Files what the Barr Memo was to the Mueller investigation.
"[Maxwell’s] like listening to Ted Bundy talk about his victims. Literally what’s the point," Epstein survivor Marijke Chartouni texted me. Let's not forget prosecutors charged Maxwell with perjury & cited her "willingness to lie brazenly under oath about her conduct" in court docs.
“Under my administration, we will be slashing energy and electricity prices by half within 12 months…” - Donald Trump, August 14, 2024
Ghislaine Maxwell claims she never saw Donald Trump engage in "inappropriate" behavior. When on Earth is it a wise idea to rely on the judgement of a convicted child trafficker, rapist, and an individual who's also twice indicted for perjury - decide what is or is not "appropriate"? Never.
Ghislaine Maxwell wants us to believe that the man who bragged about “grabbing women by the pussy” was always a perfect gentleman? The same man who’s been convicted of sexual assault? Even if she hadn’t been moved to minimum security & likely bribed with a pardon this wouldn’t pass the sniff test
Thank you, Costa Rica. This should absolutely not have been necessary but we are a shitty vindictive mess right now.
Vile
Seriously, this woman has perjured herself before.
Today we gathered to honor Officer David Rose. He was a man of quiet integrity. He loved food, motorcycles, and most of all, his family. He answered the call. Our call. And gave his life to protect the community he served We will be forever grateful. Rest in peace. www.11alive.com/article/news...
I guarantee you that none of the men who paid for sex with the girls Maxwell and Epstein trafficked were roofers looking for work at a Home Depot
They will try to deport him again.
She said “I believe” so many times, trying to bust perjury….. she’s already been charged with perjury, so tell me why would we believe her?
Yes, it IS sick. But totally what we’d expect from Trump.
The DOJ releases Maxwell audio and transcripts. I have a suggestion: listen to the number of times she says, "...I believe..." It's one of the primary perjury busting tools around. Right up there with, "I can't recall," or "To the best of my memory."
Ghislaine Maxwell and Jeffrey Epstein could not have sold women and girls for sex without wealthy men buying women and girls for sex. I feel like more people should mention that.
Let’s roll!
Not trusting Maxwell’s opinion about what’s appropriate.
It would be a miracle as she’s in her 50s.
“spongy Donald, 💩 pants” comes to mind.
I think this is already happening, many men complaining, but not looking at their own behavior as the issue. C’est dommage.
An American President messing with free elections because the leader of Russia told him to, is what we call a Russian Agent.
Is Stevie having a bad day?
While he’s working! Not the thugs and criminals they said they were going after.
Keep in mind that being undocumented in the United States is a civil violation, like a parking ticket. Not a criminal one. If this man is not a violent criminal offender why are they body slamming him to the pavement? For a civil infraction? Home of the free??? Let’s take our streets back people!
Unidentified masked men surround your vehicle, weapons out and pointed at you. Your family is inside. They refuse to identify themselves. This poster would drive right over them to get away. We CANNOT allow secret police kidnappings to become normalized. Do not believe any DHS narrative. #la

Trump just wants things….. and he’s used to being given everything, but the Nobel for a tyrant? LOL
True.
Just need a rogue one.
Thousands of Polish military personnel, as well as US, British, French and Romanian troops, took part today in a parade to mark Poland's Armed Forces Day, which celebrates the anniversary of victory against Soviet Russia at the 1920 Battle of Warsaw
No lies told here.
The money will be coming out of our paycheck
It is insane to me that the government can find money to pay ICE agents increasingly larger sums of money, yet teachers have to buy their own pencils.
Throwing a sandwich at a cop: REQUIRES 10-PERSON TACTICAL TEAM TO AREEST IN FULL RAID GEAR (even tho subject wanted to turn himself in) Beating a cop unconscious with a flag pole: “Go home. We love you.”
