The U.S. military is trained to fight foreign adversaries, not police the American people.
So...no due process? Cool, cool. Good luck, everyone. www.washingtonpost.com/world/2025/0...
As Pam would say: it's the same picture.
I watched a podcast with a former Navy SEAL and member of SEAL Team Six. He indicated that when you are in the military, when they order you to get a certain vaccine...you just do it. That's part of the deal. That's exactly what I did...as did anyone else in military...who wasn't a pussy. #SuckItUp
Ms. Warren Fights On.......
Once Epstein's survivors start naming powerful men, including Donald Trump, it's going to be hell for Republicans who are stalling their own radicalized base that demands answers and release of the files. They can't keep distracting.

So......they were people on a boat. The 🍊💩 murdered a group of human beings on a boat.
Summarily killing a boat full of suspected illegal migrants rather than summarily killing a boat full of suspected drug dealers lowers the approval rate with the American populace from maybe 35% to 25%.
Epstein Epstein Epstein Epstein Epstein Epstein This is what it looks like when you're scared to death of your secrets coming out. Epstein Epstein Epstein Epstein And when spineless cowards pretending to be strong but are just afraid for their positions run interference for you. Epstein Epstein
The Epstein files will put trump in prison for life. He knows this and he is fighting for his survival. He has no limits and has the nuclear codes and our massive military. There is no telling what he will do. He is absolutely insane at this point.
No such thing.
Jimmy Hoffa would've caved that guy's head in.
oh so they REALLY meant to do it
New Mexico AG Torrez: One of the biggest issues we face is gun violence. We haven’t seen any surge of federal law enforcement agencies dedicated to helping us reduce gun violence. What we’ve seen instead is a lot of the performative stuff — DHS going down to paint the wall to make it hotter.
There will be a mass exodus from Florida in the next few years as kids and seniors begin to drop dead from measles, covid and other contagious diseases. I hope their loyalty to the GOP was worth it for them.
So remember, Floridiots, when your children die from easily, vaccine preventable diseases, this man is directly responsible. All Floridiots lawyers, sharpen your knives.
The last five years has been a mind fuck not because the GOP has become more fash, but because previously seemingly reasonable people have normalized and leaned into fascism.
Caroline Kennedy warned us about her cousin #RFKJr, "a predator" presiding over "perverse scenes" of "despair and violence." His youth was the origin story of a new American Psycho. Now he is the position to inflict pain and suffering on millions. He has to go now. www.thenation.com/article/soci...

Running list: 😡 Invaded Los Angeles 😡 Murdered 11 boaters he accused of being drug dealing gang members 😡 Oversaw the biggest data heist in American history 😡 Extorted lawyers for free work 😡 Extorted Intel for a 10% stake 😡 Kidnapped American citizens who “looked” undocumented
Cities need less cars and more mass transit. Check out the data for yourselves.
You are a whiny, ignorant, baby. Clear enough?
Oh, the perpetually aggrieved. We all feel so terrible for you. Poor you.
"Go to an old cemetery. See all the baby graves from before the 1950s & 60s? After that, hardly any. That's when people started vaccinating their children. If you're unsure what to do to protect your kids, the answer is literally written in stone." — Michael Okuda How quick we forget.
I’ve studied US drone strikes, I wrote a book called “Drones and Terrorism,” and this Caribbean strike is different. Lethal fire at a non-threatening target in a non-hostile environment on purpose when other means, such as capture, were easily doable, and without even attempting a legal rationale.
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?
This is why people burn the American flag.
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."
"To pretend that Ashli Babbitt's death deserves the same recognition as the young soldier at the gate is obscene. It is a betrayal of the oath she once swore and a desecration of the sacrifice made by so many who kept faith with theirs."
Thank you Congress woman MelanieS
The guy that ordered 8 fighter jets to perform a low altitude fly-over in an effort to drown out Epstein survivors is the same guy who wants you to believe he's innocent.
Blanche said he didn’t want a “she said, she said” situation—but that’s exactly what it is. Victims said Maxwell sexually abused them and helped Epstein. Maxwell denied it. Someone’s lying—and it’s not the victims. DOJ should charge her for lying to federal agents.
Really want to emphasize the fact that even if that boat was loaded down with the finest of 70s era cocaine that doesn’t justify killing 11 people.
Bonta: They tried to rely on this supposed exception to the Posse Comitatus Act. And Judge Breyer, during the trial, rightfully asked: “I haven’t seen that in the Constitution. Can you point it out?” Of course, it could not be pointed out by the witness, because it doesn’t exist.

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
Cool, amend the Constitution. There ya go.
NEW PODCAST DROPS AT MIDNIGHT: If Trump were TRYING to make sure his Trumpstein Epstein Cover-up scandal reignited every time it started to die down, he couldn't be doing a better job. Plus he's turning NYC's Mayor Election into a Trump referendum. New Countdown pod drops at midnight
Lawrence: The most perverse thing during Blanche/Maxwell interview was their laughter🔥🎙️ youtu.be/r8UG4wfLYMc?...
On another note... what was up with the jets flyover during the epstein survivors press conference. I'd be willing to bet donald had something to do with that. Man I hate him.
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.
And I would never want to get between Ted and a trip to Cancun when there’s an emergency in Texas
I don't know what Britain's odious pest Nigel Farage was doing in Congress today. But this country already has an oversupply of fascists who eagerly carry water for Vladimir Putin. We certainly don't need to be importing them from the UK.
Get ready to die Floridiots.
If you have the misfortune of being represented by any of these House Rules Committee members, be sure to give their offices a call.
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"
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.
They are covering up the orange turd's rape of children.
Rep. Dan Goldman: "This is a coverup. This is a massive cover up...Donald Trump was hot to trot and Kash Patel and Dan Bongino were leading the charge to release the Epstein files. Now, all of a sudden, they don't want them released. They are trying to hide something."
Sen. Lankford should know this about his own state.
"It is the job of thinking people not to be on the side of the executioners." Albert Camus
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.
Giving Coach Football a run for his money for dumbest MFer in Congress. An absolute embarrassment to my Navy, the medical field, and to be honest, humanity. A complete nimrod.
Bombing Venezuelan civilians, also a war crime.
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.
That Pritzker presser? Unreal. A sitting governor saying, flat out, the Union is coming apart and his state is being invaded by an authoritarian regime. This is a whole new level of crisis.
Trump murdered 11 civilians, whether they were involved in organized crime or not, doesn't take away their human rights. Trump murdered those people and released the video to boast about it. It's not law enforcement or legal military action, it is simply premeditated murder.
Sing it.
Where Alabama does mail in voting........
It sure didn’t take long for Jeanine Pirro to turn the DC US Attorney’s Office into the most incompetent, feckless, and ridiculous prosecutor’s office in the United States.
For the show, and the cruelty.
Probably not a great month to go out fishing in the Gulf now. The US military might be your judge, jury and executioner.
See through it.
Good morning to you 🌞 from the Southern Coast on the
Republican Rep. Gabe Evans: “Moving [Space] Command at such a turbulent time would jeopardize our national security and unnecessarily waste taxpayer resources.”
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.
🟪🟦🟩🟨🟧🟥 #ONEV1 #Pinks 🌸 #Voices4Victory
So let’s clarify he is moving the Space Command Center from Colorado to Alabama because Colorado has mail in ballots? INSANE! Does he realize Alabama also has mail in ballots? Somebody put him in a home!
Epstein was and Trump is an intelligence asset working for America's enemies. They trafficked and raped children. GOP = Gross Old Pedophiles
So our military just bombed a boat in international waters and extrajudicially killed suspected drug traffickers without so much as a conversation, let alone a trial? Then posted it on social media? And we’re all supposed to just trust their account?
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.
Simple: Someone who dies defending the Constitution is not the same as someone who dies attacking it.
To be a political reporter in 2025, you have to be gullible enough to believe that a convicted felon who launched a violent coup attempt is worried about crime. Or you just have to be willing to pretend you’re that gullible. Either way, we deserve better.
"Some cause happiness wherever they go; others whenever they go." ~ Oscar Wilde #QuoteOfTheDay
Even dumber than that.
And the man actually wants a Nobel Peace Prize?
Today, Congress is back in session. Priority #1: The Epstein files must be made public. The victims deserve justice, and Americans deserve the truth.
Gavin Newsom mocking Karoline Leavitt as Effie Trinket from the Hunger Games 👏🏼🤣🏆
Pritzker: "It breaks my heart to report that we have been told ICE will try to disrupt community picnics and peaceful parades. Let's be clear -- the terror and cruelty is the point, not the safety of anybody living here."
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
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?"

The Trump administration is LYING about how long people are stuck waiting for help with their Social Security benefits. I pressed the Social Security Commissioner and got him to agree to an independent investigation. Instead of fudging the numbers, do your job and help people.
"I found something, somewhere that agrees with me, thus QED."
That'll buff out.
I get this reference.
