There’s only one way to make us stop demanding the release of the Epstein files.
"For so many years, it felt like Epstein's criminal behavior was an open secret." “We’re not going away. We’re not staying quiet. We’re not going to give up.” Annie Farmer (Epstein survivor)
More than 100 survivors and relatives of victims of Maine's deadliest mass shooting are suing the federal government.
WAKE UP! The survivors of Jeffrey Epstein deserve justice. They deserve to be heard. Today at 10:30 AM EST / 7:30 AM PST, they’re speaking live at a press conference. The system tried to bury the truth, but these voices are rising anyway. Watch. Share. Don’t look away. (Link in 🧵)

These people who are doing this—top to bottom—will suffer greatly for it at some point. Their people will shun them, they won’t be able to find employment; they will not escape punishment.
While the U.S. spent a half a billion dollars painting a fence black on their side, Mexico invited artists to paint their side to express their artistic talent. 💗 The contrast between the two countries highlights each country’s priorities.
In the US this would be a huge, horrific mass-casualty event, but it’s Afghanistan, so we scroll past. Sigh. Hard to escape the fact that we suck.
Happy to report that he looks like poo
Can’t deflect this one. Sorry.
Yes, BUT, the incompetent, ineffective and sometimes criminally complicit media amplifies the lies. We would not hear them otherwise and without explicit pushback “That is a lie”, they are a part of the problem.
#nytimes #wapo #newspapers Call these things what they are.
It’s time folks for some #SidewalkChalk civil disobedience. Grab some chalk, go outside with your kids, and draw, write, sketch, vent, play hopscotch. This shit has gone too far. #ChalkCrime

Starbucks CEO pay: $96 MILLION Starbucks worker pay: $15,000 Coca-Cola CEO pay: $28 MILLION Coca-Cola worker pay: $14,000 CEOs used to make like 20x the average worker. In 2024, the average CEO earned 632x more. The system is rigged.
She’s a performative, weak, bullshit artist.
AND she should ABSOLUTELY NOT be honored in any way.
This is right. And I appreciate the generosity. It’s scarce.
This is a truly generous perspective. I appreciate it because my impetus of late really isn’t.
If you only follow one (or a few) people on Bluesky--but post regularly, I don't trust you. You probably aren't curious, or don't value the thoughts and opinions of others; just blah blah blah
This is fantastic- scroll forward to the:50 ish mark for remarks.

Hey #california. November 4th, show up and Vote YES on PROP 50 if you want to continue to have a vote that reflects our state. No joke. #gerrymandering
Tenacity always wins.
I appreciate the fervor, but to be effective at any real level, the ban must be federal. Unless you’re closing state borders, it’s not realistic.
Show hearings and trials are a key marker of a concentration-camp regime. Even in countries with existing detention crises, the conscious step to degrade due process for targeted groups further diminishes the larger legal system while shifting power to emerging quasi-legal and extralegal approaches.
So much
Trump says he wants to make Washington, DC "beautiful again." 200 National Park Service workers used to be assigned to maintain the city's parks. Trump fired all of them but 20. Now the National Guard members Trump ordered to DC are cleaning the parks. So efficient!
I can see a correlation. The big difference: all the gun people definitely use the word “dadgummit”.
#california #dontpokethebear Well, we did what we could!
We had a horrific emergency involving our kids today and right now I'm just sitting at my computer in a daze and in shock. Thankfully they are okay but others are less fortunate.
When Hurricane Katrina hit in 2005, President George W. Bush said “No one could have known this would happen.” But *I* knew it would happen. Because I read an article in @sciam.bsky.social back in 2001, describing precisely the disaster unfolding. When experts issue warnings, LISTEN.
I want it to happen on camera as he’s saying yet one more incredibly stupid and cruel thing I want his face to droop and him to collapse and wet himself to absolutely minimize the inevitable conspiracy talk And I realize how pathetic it is to wish this on someone but he has earned it
What’s this now? Some good news? Well, I barely recognized you!
Walz says Harris "would have been a fantastic president... we wouldn't wake up every day to a bunch of shit on TV. We would wake up to an adult w/ compassion & dignity doing the work, not a manchild crying about whatever is wrong with him. May his fat ankles find something today. Petty as hell."
ICE agents waited until this woman’s attorney went to the bathroom to quickly grab her. She faints over and over from the stress. A bystander yells, ‘Wait for her lawyer! She’s in the bathroom!’ The agents ignore his pleas and drag her into the elevator as if she’s a violent criminal! 🤬
This is why I can’t quit the internet🤣🤣🤣
Obvs I meant it will mean nothing to anyone …
Kamala Harris nailed it. We warned everyone the stakes were too high to hand the guy built for Project 2025 another shot — but noooo. Ever have one of those mornings you just want to throw the window open and yell, FUCK YOU ALL? Yeah, that.
Y’all need to read the article. It’s actually placing more restrictions on the practice. It’s been there all along. No defense of corporal punishment in schools, of course.
If they give that man a Nobel Peace Prize, the award will meaning to anyone, forever.
When I was a kid the narration for Spaceship Earth (the ride inside the big ball) was done by Walter Cronkite and my brothers and I would mimic his voice saying stupid things. I’m imagining Trump doing the narration for the scene where the Library of Alexandria burns: “Egghead haters and losers...”
Union station, DC
Period. End of story. No matter how it’s couched.
Why are we being failed by the very institution we used to view as the one best positioned to save us??
BREAKING: @marcelias.bsky.social's law firm is seeking a preliminary injunction to prevent Texas' map (which violates the Voting Rights Act) from going into effect once signed into law by Abbott
Very good point. These people are not smart people.
Exactly. Are we supposed to lend credence to a person found criminally guilty of the crimes (Maxwell is intending to clear other peoplef similar crime)s? At the same m
Conditions are expected to worsen by September, IPC global initiative says, in a ‘race against time’.
I think most people who have seen the documentary feel they should be released. You’re in good company.
I still don't care one bit what Geraldo Rivera believes or says. Never have, never will.
He's leaving, one way or another.
Newsom: We got here because the President is struggling. We got here because the President is one of the most unpopular presidents in U.S. history. We got here because he recognizes that he will lose the election.
Gavin Newsom responds to Fox's OBSESSION with him
#abbyphillip outed herself on Pivot w/ #karaswisher as--at best--an apologist. Sure, I get it, there are people who support trump, but giving voice and to the racists and defending the whackjobs? That's harmful. (I don't watch CNN, only commenting on this interview)
100% freakin’ heathens
Go straight to hell, Nazi

This was interesting and somehow comforting.
🗞️ I spent decades in newsrooms, finishing up as Managing Editor of Stars & Stripes. I am telling you our legacy media is not a part of the problem in America. It IS the problem in America. 🗞️ By platforming the most notorious liar on earth, instead of reporting the truth, they have put us in danger.
Omg it’s so good
Kitty trolling. 😸😸😸😸
Right on
He absolutely remembers. He’s a pathological liar. And his followers are morons.

Boston Mayor Michelle Wu: “Silence in the face of oppression is not an option. The U.S. Attorney General asked for a response by today. So here it is…Stop attacking our cities to hide your administration's failures.”
Even the sickest cult members—the most hateful—this must give them pause, no? Or are they so addled and dumb that they don’t even know what a museum is?
Thanks for sharing. It’s just so fascinating to me.
Oh.
wtf is wrong with them?

Good morning everyone! Today's episode of #DoSomething explores the growing trend of #FreewayOverpass activism, and the ins and outs, and stats of short form messaging from freeway overpasses. Please share with folks who are looking to "do something". shorturl.at/MpbKX
You didn’t need to hear a thing from Trump or his staff to know his big Alaska summit was an utter disaster. My latest post open.substack.com/pub/fpwellma...
🧵 In serial sex abuser Trump's mind, Epstein victims are Democrats trying to get him. Looking forward to this: "On Monday, Rep. Thomas Massie (R-Ky.) — a frequent critic of Trump — announced that he and Rep. Ro Khanna (D-Calif.) will be hosting a press conference Sept. 3 with survivors ...1/2
Hoot!
It looks decidedly Republican to me. Don’t know why.
God, it feels awful that he has to do the whole “grateful to President Trump” business. I can’t wait for his memoir.
I can’t tell if I’m stoned or not
God, he looks miserable. It's delicious.
8/10/25: "I don’t know what it will be. I don’t know when it will happen. But the fault line is rumbling with pressure and soon there will be an act that is one too far and we the people will explode and shut this evil regime down." I fear it will be a Kent State in D.C. #DemVoice1

If you oppose bringing a gun to this bloodbath, you’re naive at best, but more likely harmful. Use your brains and THEN use your voice.
Wake up!! Don’t undermine the only reasonable response to the GOP steal!!

On top of everything else, they’re both just so repulsive.
I have a very hard time amplifying democrat’s struggles. It does nothing but stoke fear and anger amongst our own team. Cmon, let’s focus on the enemy, for crying out loud.
I hate these weak-minded thugs. And I believe in karma.

Armed Trump administration agents wearing masks just showed up outside of Gavin Newsom’s press conference. This is what rising fascism looks like.
Unbelievable. Like every other thing.
