So they re-released most of the same shit they gave the GOP binder crew in February? Color me shocked. Never thought I’d say this, but I’m with Massie. Release the rest of the damn Epstein files, not this cherry-picked bullshit.

President Franklyn Delano Roosevelt said, "A necessitous man is not a free man." The second paragraph of the first article in the Declaration of Independence contains the phrase "Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of Happiness". We can have none of that without food, housing, healthcare, etc.
It's really quite a thing to have a Secretary of Energy who does not understand, ummm... energy.

Yes there was Reagan, but McCain fucked up and opened the flood gates with his selection of Palin. We’ve not been the same since, and yes he is an American hero. Both can be true. JMO
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.”
They faked his assassination. They are totally capable of faking his death...or the lack thereof!
My fervent wish for 2026 Democratic primary voters in winnable GOP-held House/Senate elections is to vote for the Democratic candidate that has the best chance of winning. I know that won’t be easy for some, but there will be no room for purity tests among this narrow sliver of elections.
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?
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."
This was when news reporting lost all sense of humanity&pride.No honesty,no apologies if something reported was incorrect.No shame, whatsoever,for who they hurt,who they sided with.They spoke like it was the gospel truth.Always biased with whoever,paid them the most bucks!They ALL worshipped money!
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?"
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
#ReleaseTheEpsteinFiles #EpsteinFiles
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.
GOP Rep. Thomas Massie has filed a discharge petition to force the disclosure of Justice Department investigative files related to the late sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein.
🚨 Breaking: A federal judge just ruled Trump’s use of the National Guard in California illegal, calling it a step toward “a national police force with the President as its chief.” The decision strikes at the heart of his crackdown strategy — and sets up a constitutional showdown. ⚖️
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.
I'm aware that the President likes to go on television and beg me to call him to ask for troops. I find it strange, as Chicago doesn't want troops. I also have experience asking him for assistance – just to have the rug pulled up from underneath me when execution meets reality.

Illinois strengthened its anti-SLAPP law after a nonsensical court ruling excluded news reporting from the law’s protection. This prevents elites from chilling and punishing "constitutionally protected speech, including journalism," we told @kgosztola.bsky.social.

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.
Idea of the Day...
Medicare for all. Paid leave. Universal childcare. Break up corporate monopolies. Take on Wall Street greed. Get big money out of politics. Support unions. Raise wages. If Dems want to win back working people, this is the agenda.
Were you to ask Leavitt etc, they would identify themselves as patriots whose beliefs rest on the country’s foundation. But with their talk of demons and evil, they are framing reality in a way that would justify Donald Trump’s campaign for fascist power. adamkinzinger.substack.com/p/tragedy-br...

Can the media STOP referring to Jeffrey Epstein as a “financier”? The money he made came from SEX TRAFFICKING MINORS, RAPING CHILDREN, and BLACKMAIL. He was NOT a financier. I’ve seen at least five stories from three outlets refer to him this way in the past week. This is the latest from the Times:
California stepping up.
Dead, alive, hiding — doesn’t matter. Release the Epstein files.
Jones: I would say to my colleagues who serve in government—keep your thoughts and prayers, keep your tweets. If you want to address gun violence, you don't need to tweet. What you need is a mirror. You have the power to change things.
For at least this weekend, could we use BREAKING on posts only for only one thing?
There are 3 very broken brains teeing us up for a shocking amount of death. One is running on Adderall and Alzheimic plaques. One is running on a brainworm. One is running on unfettered Nazism. None of us should have to die in their madness.

We want to apologize if it feels like we’ve been venting a lot lately. It’s just hard to ignore that nearly every move from this administration seems to be illegal, unlawful, or outright unconstitutional and yet nothing happens.

This is 8 year old Fletcher Merkel, who was killed in the horrific Minneapolis shooting. His father says “Fletcher loved his family, friends, fishing, cooking and any sports that he was allowed to play.” Let’s remember Fletcher and lift up him and his family.

Yeah, lot of inbreeding going on in maga world, it seems.
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.
We really need to face that the ruling party is at peace with millions of us dying … COVID, guns, hunger, police violence, concentration camps, unsafe food, natural disasters. They are deeply committed to not preventing these deaths. #FireRFKJr

Just because he won't listen doesn't mean we shouldn't say it. Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. should be fired immediately.
I do not understand why government officials resign when asked to do something bad. The resignations will no longer be treated by the public like a scandal. It’ll be out of the news within 24 hours. People should stay and force the White House to fire them. Do not make it easy.

Newsom: Perhaps the president could deploy the National Guard in every corner of Mississippi. Murder rate is out of control there. And the governor may want to make that phone call.
Children have to deal with mass shootings in schools while certain adults can't even handle a logo change.
My heart heavy with pain given little ones killed in school shooting. I have prayers that we elect a Congress that will keep weapons away from those with evil intent. It worked when Clinton was president. Mass shootings declined.After assault weapons ban expired they rose dramatically. RIP
Dr. Demetre, resignation from the Center for Disease Control. "I have never experienced such radical non-transparency, nor have I seen such unskilled manipulation of data to achieve a political end rather than the good of the American people." RFK Jr. must be removed. He's a danger to people
Yeah, you should.
BREAKING: Bernie Sanders just demanded a special Senate committee hearing on the crisis at the CDC, making RFK Jr testify under oath on the disaster he's created. Go Bernie!
Lynx coach Cheryl Reeve on the Minnesota shooting: "The sad thing is we can't sit here and tell them that help is on the way. Because we're not going to do a damn thing about it."
Ashley Babbit dishonored her service by committing insurrection against her country. While her death is absolutely tragic and I wish it hadn’t happened, the Air Force giving her honors is in itself a dishonor.
If someone tells you there's nothing we can do about gun violence beyond thoughts and prayers, remind them: —Gun laws in other countries have prevented mass shootings —More guns don't make us safer —A majority of Americans want gun reform We don't have to live like this.

Guns and religion. Those aren’t solutions, they are the problems.
i find this image so fascinating. it is both a literal example of authoritarianism but also a second-hand reproduction of the aesthetics of other authoritarian states. it's like a simulacra of authoritarianism whose purpose is to attempt to make the simulacra real.
