holy shit dude using a fake deployment for wildland fire crews from a fire that’s only 13% contained during peak western US fire season to detain multiple firefighters and remove the crews from the fire is a scale of evil & dangerous I can’t fully communicate to people not from wildfire regions
Holy shit: Stateline spoke to nearly a dozen firefighters, agency staffers and contractors, who said that top officials assigned to the fire deployed the crews to a remote location under false pretenses so federal agents could check their immigration status. www.hcn.org/articles/fir...
Trump seeks out folks w/substance abuse issues to work around him. It helps him mask his own addictions and those of his family. Men like Kudlow, Giuliani, Hegseth, cranks & skanks like Judge Vermouth & Doc Ronnie are all vets of his orbit. He’s got a lot to hide & they help him.
Does anyone find Raphael funny?
If the U.S. military isn't going to release details on the justification for killing 11 civilians in a civilian boat who weren't posing a threat to anyone, then we have to conclude the "justification" is: the U.S. military is willing to kill civilians to give Trump social media content.
So, Republicans can offer nothing to help Epstein survivors, but they will litigate Jan 6 to help the insurrectionists? Got it. www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...
Illegal strike. It was illegal under international and domestic law. Why don't you report that? It was murder.
That's not a legal authority. Vance killed people
Trump raped children
This is insane. Children will die or be scared for life.
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"
In the absence of transparency from US Attorney General Pam Bondi and the Justice Department, survivor Lisa Phillips reports that several of #Epstein ’s victims have begun compiling client lists of their own. #OpDeathEaters
GOP Rep. Massie: I hope my Republican colleagues are watching. The establishment is asking you to believe just 2 people created hundreds of victims. The pages are heavily redacted, and 97% is already in the public domain. Be one of the next 2 who sponsors this discharge petition. This is not a hoax
Jeffries is Trump's biggest supporter
A former Fox News producer with history of posting racist stuff on social media — and, each time, prompting a controversy, including getting impeached from student government while in college — now has a gig at the EEOC, the worker protection agency created as part of the Civil Rights Act of 1964.
Me: "This near-total absence of any serious and sustained reporting on Trump’s visible infirmities is reason alone to believe that Tapper, Thompson and others did not themselves believe what they said about Biden, only that saying it brought them the attention they needed."
100 VICTIMS is astounding. Even more astounding, that's less than 10% of Epstein and Maxwell's victims.
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?
Don't feel like doing a repost that puts the murder video on the timeline yet again but do feel like repeating the point that the president just straight-up assassinated 11 people for supposedly doing something that wouldn't be a death-penalty crime if they were caught and convicted
CNN once was a real journalistic enterprise. Now it's fully fascist propaganda.
Sen. Mark Warner, D-Va., the vice chair of the Intelligence Committee, says he was denied a meeting with career intelligence workers because Laura Loomer objected.
Where’s the warning shot across the bow? Where’s the evidence the vessel had weapons, let alone was intending violence to anyone? The U.S. has 3 destroyers and a cruiser in the area, a couple thousand marines, and likely helicopters: were they all incapable to interdicting a boat like this? #USpol
It's not.
Illegal war crime.
Lethal force against a civilian vessel in international waters is a war crime if not in self-defense. If not in self-defense, only non-lethal actions, such as warning shots or disabling fire, are allowed. "Not yielding to pursuers" or "suspected of carrying drugs" doesn't carry a death sentence.
“Jones alleges she met Epstein when she was 14 in the early 2000s and was paid to give him a massage, during which he fondled her after she undressed. ‘A lot of these powerful ppl think they’re in the clear, and they’re probably still doing it now,’ she said Tuesday.” www.nbcnews.com/news/amp/rcn...
What we are witnessing is a CONSPIRACY by the Republican Party to protect a child rapist and a child sex trafficking network. They will NEVER release the Epstein files. This is the holy grail of corruption and they will protect it at ALL COSTS. The ONLY way forward is to EXPOSE the conspiracy! 😡
These criminals have killed and disappeared all those who threaten their existence the MOST. Even Ivanna who used to go w/Maxwell to recruit the children, fell down the stairs she NEVER used. She had arthritis and an elevator! Maxwell will be deleted once they get what they want from her.
How many convictions has there been in DC and for what?
This offer still stands. Mainstream media should use my suggested headline and lead paragraph.
Senate Democrats: DO NOT FUND the government when the current continuing resolution expires at the end of the month. SHUT IT DOWN unless DC is funded, the troops are withdrawn from our cities, elections are protected, the Epstein files are released in full... SHUT IT DOWN.
See? This shit is why I'm not going to let up on Newsom or other transphobic Democrats: they might otherwise go the Labour route and plunge the country into full on transphobia as policy.
monkeypox can be transmitted through close physical contact, including sexual contact, it is not primarily spread through sexual activity. The main mode of transmission is through contact with the skin, respiratory droplets, or contaminated objects of an infected person."
Let's get this judge's decision right. It's not saying the Trump administration just happened to violate the law. It's that they *knew* they were breaking the law but did it anyway. @notus.org: www.notus.org/courts/judge...
Share Jimenez Rosa's harrowing story and remember her name. The cruelty of this administration is astounding. #DemVoice1 #ProudBlue #Pinks
Where about never Clearwater?
I feel like the insistence that voters are just really upset about crime, given this reality, is instructive for the notion that they just really care about high prices
Remembering when the NYT went on a weeks-long bender covering a decades-old real estate deal the Clintons were involved in, in which they *lost money*.
Can we talk about the pictures on the wall. A whole collage of him playing golf. WTF!
The amount of resources being spent on this is insane.
Revoking an entire nationality’s visas is collective punishment and never acceptable — especially in this moment when millions of Palestinians lack equal rights, basic healthcare, and so much more at home, forcing them out of the US is unfathomably cruel. www.nytimes.com/2025/08/31/w...
"Israel’s policies and actions in Gaza meet the legal definition of genocide in Article II of the United Nations Convention for the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide (1948)".

Well done MAGA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Jesus fucking christ. The Trump administration tried to send a bunch of children to Guatemala at 3 am and justified it by saying that the kids just wanted to return to their parents in Guatemala, but the kids actually told the court that they are afraid of being sent back to Guatemala.
Thousands of Hurricane Helene victims are being evicted — less than a year after being displaced… And now, as FEMA crumbles, imagine what *future* victims of ecological disasters will have to endure
What is coming, in QAnon lore, is the Storm. The orgy of bloodletting in which Trump will liquidate his political enemies. That’s what he’s playing with.
And they put the kids on the planes in the middle of the night, on Labor Day weekend. Evil.
They should report the DOJ lawyers to the local state bar for sanctions.
I'll bet $100 that the DOJ is lying to the judge.
I have dealt with unaccompanied minors. Most of them have families in the US that they stay with, or can stay with. So these children most likely were taken from their homes and families and placed in detention to be trafficked out of the country in the middle of the night. It is evil.
Thank you for everything you are doing. The amount of resources, personnel, time, and equipment the government is expending on this obviously illegal and racist plan is insane.
This is bullshit. There are methods for doing this through state courts and the UCCJEA. I have handled cases involving minors from foreign countries in Florida state court. The DOJ appears to be lying here.
They do exist
I hate these people. They are liars and evil. The Covid vaccine saved millions of lives and saved America.
Chalk doesn't damage anything. If it's a real judge, this will be dismissed.
Trump/RFK are decapitating our public health system, a pillar of American greatness. So Dem Govs should scour every corner of the law for creative new ways to defend their people from this madness. Dems should polarize this debate to the max. Thoughts on this here: newrepublic.com/article/1998...
It's a death cult.
Thank you Sir.
Can all reporters also include in every headline and story how highly unusual and inappropriate it is that this info is even in the hands of Pulte.
The extent to which ICE is ignoring all civil rights and due process is astounding — and indicative of a culture where they’ve been told they can do literally no wrong. Agency and admin leaders must face sanctions and legal consequences.
@nealkatyal.bsky.social: “You’ve got the president who's imposed the largest tax increase on American consumers since 1993 … and he did it without Congress saying one word. That is not our constitutional structure.”
Sure, maybe ten years ago it was, for some, a considerable accusation to make – but not any more. Not for a long while. You'd have to be willfully ignoring so damn many things not to see it now. It sure AF looks like we have a pedofile sexual predator for a president. Release the Epstein files.
“ILLEGALS” MY ASS! Green card holder Rami Othmane speaks out after being snatched off the street by ICE while driving to the grocery store. He’s a documented immigrant and the husband of Dr Wafaa Alrashid, chief of staff at a local hospital. He was locked in detention for 13 days.
ICE GOONS forcibly removed a law-abiding man from his distraught children, despite his recent renewal of immigration documents in court. Where is the real law enforcement in all of this, and why are they allowing kidnappers to operate within government buildings?
Will the US military be honoring any other terrorists? Maybe McVeigh? Atta? Bin Laden?
“A respected network of hospitals and cancer centers is halting enrollment in clinical trials for children with brain cancer after the federal government said it would no longer provide funding to the group”
In response to a suit by @maketheroadny.bsky.social a federal judge has blocked Trump’s expanded use of “expedited removal.” The courthouse abductions w/o due process that we’ve been protesting are illegal—and must stop. We’ll be back next week to make sure they do. www.nytimes.com/2025/08/29/u...
It's honoring a terrorist.
I'm not a Gardner, but isn't that mulch overkill?
The media needs to stop calling this an “immigration crackdown.” That’s not what Trump’s doing. He’s using the military and ICE to invade cities and occupy them. Trump is itching for a fight, and he wants it with blue-city mayors and blue-state governors. The good news: they’re not backing down.
Attorney for Epstein survivors Jack Scarola on Trump’s handling of the Epstein Files: “What I see is a continuation of a massive government-sponsored cover-up. This is not accountability. This is not transparency. What the victims have received repeatedly is deception, delay, and diversion.”
History shows us the opposite: Undermining and censoring scientists and experts is a central feature of authoritarianism.
He is a dangerous psychopath. He is a mass murderer.
Republicans are evil
ICE’s unchecked power has turned into lawless overreach—abductions by masked agents, denial of due process, secret police tactics. Democratic leaders can stop this, but only if we demand it: bit.ly/45Umbi3
Bullshit
US Trump regime is unofficially conducting clandestine influence operations across multiple allied countries including in the EU in particular the UK & France, however, Canada and Mexico face the highest threat level right now. The Trump regime ops are seemingly running in parallel with Russian ops.
The mainstream media won't tell you that Trump is building a police state because their owners think there's money to be made after Trump builds his police state.
New details emerge in case against Republican who laced his granddaughters' ice cream with molly & cocaine. He claimed Dairy Queen laced the ice cream, but video shows it was him. He tried to create a fake crisis or wanted to rape his granddaughters. Typical Republican. www.wral.com/story/calls-...
Danish intelligence warns that the Trump regime US operation attempted to “exploit existing or invented disagreements,“ to recruit locals. The US operation used social media and fake personas to stir distrust & discontent against Denmark and Greenland, including through paid ads and Facebook groups.
I'm convinced that before his term is over, Trump will invade Greenland and have the US military occupy it.
If only the media would report accurately on reality
Donald Trump’s and Pam Bondi’s corruption of the Rule of Law in America will continue apace until the American People stand up and cry out “No More. We’ve had enough. We are a nation of laws, not of men.”
Between RFK decimating the CDC, normalizing Ashli Babbitt & the umpteenth school shooting... I'm losing the will to post. #ReleaseTheEPSTEIN_Files
Case study: Erdogan replaced technocrats with loyalists and kept rates low when they needed to rise. Inflation soared to 86%, and is still painfully high. That’s the playbook Trump's floating. Keep the Fed independent if you want low inflation without the drama.
I think the technical term is a hack

Convicted felon, Donald Trump, is on a crusade to hurt Americans because there isn’t any other reason to explain why he is making immigration checks of firefighters who are IN THE MIDST OF BATTLING WILDFIRES a priority. Trump makes America less safe everyday.
If I were charged with a federal crime, I’d hire Pam Bondi’s brother as my lawyer. Because I don’t think this is a coincidence.
“She said there were two things she would never do in the job: One, in terms of firing her leadership who are talented civil servants like herself, and the other was to rubber-stamp ACIP recommendations that flew in the face of science.” Hours later, Monarez was out. www.nbcnews.com/health/healt...
That we are fucked.
it's truly wild that the Democrats have watched all the protest movements of the past few years and seen it as an opportunity to cultivate zero young leaders
I still think many Americans have no idea how bad this is going to get. I saw President Obama reposting a tepid, mealy-mouthed analysis by Ezra Klein—who's never seen a phenomenon he couldn't be 5 years late in incompetently circumscribing—and I felt like we don't have what it takes to survive this.

This might be the angriest I’ve ever been in print. Kash Patel tweeting about his pullup workout instead of doing the job of counterterrorism kind of broke me. www.thebulwark.com/p/the-cdc-th...
the thing that's so fucking infuriating about this is how much more that matters for the bottom 10% $1200 can be life or death at that level of income top 10%? $13K is nice, to be sure, but it's "maybe we'll take another vacation" nice not "oh good now we can afford to eat this month"
So.... 1)The state of Florida spent >$200 million to build the facility it calls "Alligator Alcatraz" 2) It opened in early July, christened by Trump. 3) Now it is closing, due to a judge's order. 4) It will cost $20 million to dismantle the center, which was used for about 2 months.
