Not sure what this means since this isn't a thing the Justice Department can just do? It would require a new federal law and likely be unconstitutional.
The president is using the military to dismantle cities that didn't vote for him The president is using the military to distract from women speaking out against his and Jeffrey Epstein's sexual abuses. We are not living in ordinary times. Extraordinary responses are called for.

Great news for everyone who wants to force the Justice Department to release the Epstein files!
RFK Jr. is testifying today. The real warning came this morning from the CDC Director he just fired after 29 days. Dr. Susan Monarez refused to rubber-stamp his anti-vax agenda. She held the line for science. He fired her. I've worked with her, and America should listen.
RFK Jr is dangerous. In the event of a health emergency, he'd be catastrophic. Recent events at the CDC speak to a lack of confidence in him. He's unfit, double talks, says he didn't say things we all heard him say... This is about the health of America. Cassidy et al - this should be a no-brainer.
The press grilled Biden over bike rides and coughs, but when it comes to Trump’s health, they toss him garbage questions like Peter Doocy’s: “How did you find out you were dead?” That’s not journalism, that’s the most ridiculous, toothless version of a question, served up that way on purpose.
Turns out, murderous dictators don’t trust murderous dictators. Go figure. 🤷🏽♂️
Trump is China’s Favorite ‘Useful Idiot’.. Who lost China? Right-wingers asked after Chinese communists secured power in 1949. Fast forward to 2025, when our question should be: who lost American dominance to China? The answer, of course, is Donald Trump. open.substack.com/pub/contrari...
Because Reagan was a radical leftist? 😳🙄
From Ronald Reagan’s final speech as President. 36 plus yrs later, what Reagan says here about America is something today’s Republican Party vehemently opposes.👇
Trump’s incompetence: forgeda strong India-Russia-China alliance, gave China leg up in Africa, boosted China in clean energy sector, sent trading partners fleeing into China’s open arms, and frittered away our intellectual capital. Beijing could never have dreamed of a more congenial “useful idiot”
BREAKING: Trump orders the military to fly fighter jets over anyone demanding the Epstein files.
Time to connect some dots. Multiple judges - including a panel for the very conservative 5th Circuit - have ruled that deporting people under the Alien Enemies Act is unlawful because it’s a war time statute and we’re not at war. So. Start a war as pretext www.nytimes.com/2025/09/03/u...
This economic stagnation should worry everyone. 1 and 4 companies has a hiring freeze right now. Hiring managers are anticipating a recession. And instead of doing anything to fix it, Trump fired the person who counts the jobs.
Always assume sadism...
To say that deranged chaos agent RKF Jr is simply politicizing HHS and public health is a vastly gross understatement, he’s literally bringing back dangerous deadly diseases to deliberately sicken the country and kill off many vulnerable citizens, he’s committing murder.
The Trump family is cashing in on the presidency by raking in billions from their corrupt meme coin, which can be purchased covertly by foreign states and corporations, organized crime networks, pardon seekers and job seekers, to name just a few. What could go wrong?
Thank you, Randy ❤️

The fact that the Epstein survivors had to give a press conference outside – and not in the halls of congress, shows you exactly who is guilty AF and the power they are wielding to try and silence the victims.
…is the day when things will truly start to change. We need the Epstein list to seek justice for the survivors. We need it for ourselves to believe things like truth, fairness and justice still exist. America needs it for a class war long overdue. (4/4)
They own Presidents, Judges, Congress…they’ve drowned out our voice, usurped the power of our vote with their super PACs, media platforms and propaganda machines. The day we realize the only thing that will make America great again is to unite against these unscrupulous oligarchs… (3/4)
The Epstein list is a who’s who of the rich & powerful. The reason Trump and the DOJ are shielding them is because they are rich and powerful. Every time we try to hold them accountable, the systems we believe were meant to deliver justice falter and betray us. (1/4)
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.
Ice cream is just very very good. I highly recommend.
So now it’s New Orleans?? And the governor is in on it?! I don’t know much about NOLA’s economy, but I am guessing it’s a major contributor to the state. College town. Governors turning against their own people is shameful and disgusting
Really, he should be made president for life. With a succession guaranteed to his oldest son. I have long said that Republicans yearn to be subjects. They're finally admitting it.
I know it would go nowhere, but it'd still be fun to see a bunch of Yale Law School grads try to get a restraining order placed on Vance speaking in public on the grounds that he's devaluing their hard-earned degrees.
Losers then, losers now.
all that people, schools, and companies have to do is just face off with them in court and say “fuck you, make me” (from the latin for “fuck you, make me”)
Next they'll be rewriting textbooks to say Japanese American internment camps were delightful summer resorts.
Trump act of ordering 8 military jets to perform a low-pass flyover during the Epstein victims' press conference is a DARVO surrogate. It's a form of gaslighting. It's an act of intimidation. It's an admission of guilt.
In the name of fighting antisemitism, the Trump admin slashed budgets for Harvard labs run by Jewish scientists performing life-saving research into various conditions, including Tay-Sachs disease, a federal judge's lacerating ruling notes. Full story www.allrisenews.com/p/trump-harv...

Not a hoax‼️ Why is Trump still blocking the release of the Epstein files? He gave Ghislaine Maxwell a voice before he gave one to the victims she groomed. “Her voice was elevated way before our voice was elevated here today…the same voice that sent me off to a monster.” - survivor Teresa Helm
With this administration, that only means they’d be even more proud about this lawless murder
Nope. He's getting worse by the day.
You're telling me he's not getting worse?
no one better to run interference for the intelligence cmte than the brilliant woman who handcuffed herself to the doors of nyc twitter HQ in the dead of winter — but only to ONE of the double doors, which meant everyone coming and going just went around her until she got cold and had to pee
The president probably blew up a boat smuggling migrants, not drugs, and this story is just going to go away tomorrow when he does something even worse, isn’t it?
That boat was lightly loaded and I don't see where all these drugs are supposed on the vessel...
The Epstein survivors are going to release *their* list of people who molested them. At last we'll finally get them. Lawsuits will doubtless be filed; be prepared to raise a major storm if this list isn't released. #ProudBlue
If the White House considers releasing the full Epstein files a “hostile act,” there is only one conclusion: Guilt. Guilty. He's guilty as hell!

trump tower doesn't have sprinklers or any fire suppression, in direct contravention of the law. One man has already died in a fire in his building. But this guy gets away with everything. No wonder he thinks the laws don't apply to him.... because they don't.
No Kings Day in June may have been the biggest day of protests in US history. October 18 is going to be even bigger: www.nokings.org?SQF_SOURCE=i...
By changing the page, it now gives the appearance that those who have listed their previous work experience at the White House have served for Trump, even if they worked in previous administrations, as in Obama's case. www.axios.com/2025/09/03/t...
Governor Newsom said doctors had warned him “nobody gets it in order,” and he assessed that “it’s actually not that easy. But for me, it was easy.” 🤣
Every day now a court hands down a massive ruling against Trump’s rampant illegality - and then he goes right on criming www.nytimes.com/2025/09/03/u...
Every story I hear involves sadism.
Just listened to an interview with The New York Times' Sheryl Gay Stolberg. Someone who attended prep school with Robert F. Kennedy Jr. recalled watching him place metal cutlery under the dining hall table and holding a lighter to them. This was so the boy clearing the table would burn his hands.
The odious piece of human garbage known as Senator Ted Cruz, with his conspicuous neck beard, really shouldn't "go there" w/jokes about anyone's corpulence. 📺 bsky.app/profile/atru...
The thing about hoaxes is the Epstein victims are speaking truth to power, and Donald Trump is scared.
a real leap towards totalitarianism
In a country where bankruptcy due to medical care costs exists, America has decided to end all preventative disease infrastructure
Well, I don’t want to get between Ted Cruz and the baggage carousel as he flees Texas during a disaster And-since he decided to try to fat shame JB Pritzker-taking a good look at Ted, I don’t want to get between him and the lunch buffet at his Cancun resort, either
It seems like federal district courts are in full revolt against SCOTUS. I've never seen such direct scathing criticism of SCOTUS like this from the bench over their shadow docket rulings quietly overturning precedent without explanation. From the Harvard decision today.
Epstein survivor Marina Lacerda: "The worst part is that the government is still in possession right now of documents & information that could help me remember and get over all of this maybe, and help me heal. They have documents w/ my name on them that were confiscated from Jeffrey Epstein's house"
About this Florida vaccine story: When they were little - 1 yr and 3 1/2 - my two older boys, who’d had all their shots, got whooping cough. We asked their pediatrician what would’ve happened if they hadn’t been vaccinated. “Oh, they’d have died.”
Boy, a winning smile sure goes a long way.
Breaking: Peaceful activists, many with disabilities, are being arrested at the Capitol right now. These individuals are putting themselves on the line to do all they can to save healthcare for millions of Americans.
Bots and farms seem to be gearing up on social media... loads of "Don't vote for {usually liberal folks} because they sucked at being tough on..." Don't fall for it. PERFECT will never be on the menu, but 'open to discussions' is... and that's better than authorianism.
This should have been directed to @govpritzker.illinois.gov.
Bananas in their tailpipes
I think maybe sending a bunch of garbage trucks to block in the ICE facility so they can't leave might work as well.
Lock them into their compounds. Refuse to fix their (oh dear all 5?) flats no gas for ice get creative...
I heard DJT had scheduled this, but forgot about it as I watched the women speak. Then, all of a sudden, it happened as one of the women spoke. She calming paused, and continued when the planes were gone. He accomplished nothing except to make himself look more guilty and desperate.
Nothing spells innocence like flexing your military power over rape victims.
Military flyover in the middle of the survivor’s news conference is shades of Trump stalking Hillary at the debate, standing directly behind her and glaring at her. Trying to exert dominance in a menacing way. Another example of his sick behavior patterns towards women.
Whenever he says "hoax" that means "it's true." #Trumpslation
Vaccines are the greatest tool ever developed for public health. DeSantis proves he doesn't care about children's health. Watch for the spread of childhood diseases like mumps. Florida moving to end all childhood vaccine mandates, DeSantis says, making it first state to do so buff.ly/R7DobJl
McGovern: "You guys think you work for Trump ... Let me repeat -- every single Republican on the Rules Committee voted against releasing the Epstein files. Every single one. We heard last night that all Republicans want full transparency. But that's just not true."
Hilarious that they offered Adams a position at the US Department of the only thing they hire black people for
Trump has done one thing very well. He is a grand uniter. Of the rest of the world. Against the United States.
I was sitting here and thinking age 14, 14 and trump is telling we need to be talking about how I stopped 7 wars instead of the Epstein files. Just release the files and be done with it.
How can you listen to the survivors and not want to release the files?
Taco says he can now invade Chicago because DC is "a safe zone" and there is now "no crime." Who knew that picking up leaves and mulching trees at fantastic expense was all it took? How about trying that in all the red cities above Chicago in crime rates? www.forbes.com/sites/sarado...
House Oversight Ranking Member Robert Garcia says nothing in Bill Barr’s testimony changes their understanding that Trump is in the Epstein files.
I'm sorry all your "friends" hate you as much as we do. Actually, I'm not. Nobody likes you. They flatter you to get what they want and they laugh at you. We are all laughing at you. We are all conspiring against you.
They should not allow Trump to use them as pawns in one of his propaganda shows where he does all the talking, interrupts, and lies constantly. They can say what they want to say in lots of places without being around a predator. Where THEIR voices will be heard, not his.
BREAKING: A court rejected the Trump administration's attempt to dismiss our lawsuit challenging government censorship of medical research that references the LGBTQ community. This is great news, and our work to defend scientific research will continue in court.
I think it's wild that we are still trying to prove Taco and Epstein were friends. But this birthday card will clinch it and wake MAGA up. I can feel it. Release the files! www.nbcnews.com/politics/con...
WTF? When an Epstein victim was asked what direct message she had for Trump, she paused, went silent, sighed said, "I... listen, I don't like to... I don't wanna send a direct a message to him. I'm already scared enough." 😳 Read between the lines.
Just got my COVID vax--the latest one. Paid full price because my lame insurance company does not cover it.
