Ossoff: Absolutely RFK JR should resign. He should have never been confirmed to begin with. He is utterly unqualified. This is someone who has embraced every piece of quackery and pseudoscience that he’s come across.

No promises, but I may have found your answer for fighting back against ICE: The ‘Red Dot - ICE Activity Alerts’ app Created by and for *immigrant communities* - Location never stored or tracked - No personal info required or collected - 100% anonymous reports - Data auto-deletes after 5 hours
"Pentagon officials were still working Wednesday on what legal authority they would tell the public was used to back up the extraordinary strike in international waters." www.nytimes.com/2025/09/03/u...
AOC: If anybody says “this isn’t fair, I'm gonna have to divest all my stocks if I run for congress” maybe you should stay home.
Every genocidal, exterminationist ideology says this. Himmler said it would be wrong to allow any Jewish children to escape to become avengers against the German people. The more succinct version is "nits make lice", which is what Americans settlers said when they massacred Native American babies.
Nothing better than a day at the fair 🥰
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.
Why do they offer him a position? Just pay him off in straight up FFS...
I am seeing social media posts that the HPV vaccine may be discussed at upcoming ACIP meetings. Not surprising, since that vaccine is frequently a target of misinformation. I wanted to put together resources for pre debunking - #IDSky + #MedSky + #OncSky.
NatCon leader Yoram Hazony says he did not expect to see anti-semitism on the Right. I guess he somehow missed the pro-Trump “alt right” movement boosted by NatCon speaker Steve Bannon in 2016. 🙄 😡 1/ x.com/natcontalk/s...
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"
“We blew it up.” On Trump’s orders. Even Rubio wants a little distance from this.
Epstein survivor on Epstein: "His biggest brag forever was that he was very good friends with Donald Trump."
Calley Means, a former lobbyist turned anti-vax wellness dude and ally of Robert Kennedy Jr., attacks @angierasmussen.bsky.social for defending vaccines. Means, who is working as a special government employee, cites her affiliation with @accountabilityji.bsky.social—a dark money group, he says.
Whoa! This is one goddamn ugly cover.
This is so important regarding the Washington Post's framing of the Muriel Bowser story yesterday. She did't "cave," she established indefinite coordination with federal law enforcement to prevent future unilateral federal bullshit.
WOW! Epstein survivor: Epstein surrounded himself with the most powerful leaders of the world. He bragged about his powerful friends, including our current president, Donald Trump.

"I thought they were going to make me board the plane like they did with the other kids from the shelter, but they asked me for my name and told me I was not on the list." A terrifying declaration from an unaccompanied child nearly removed to Guatemala straight out of Schindler's List.
There’s a woman who sits in front of the Heritage Foundation with a sign that reads “Heritage = Nazis” and just blows a whistle at every staffer who leaves the building, and I love it and love her for doing it.
'Lift the curtain on these files!' Epstein survivor shakes in fear demanding transparency www.rawstory.com/epstein-file...
Remember how nice it was when we went a whole week without this delusional fantasist gaslighting the country with whatever nonsensical drivel his syphilitic mind could conjure from the depths of his netherbrain? What an embarrassment he is. What a complete dingus. 🙄
Reporter: What is your message to President Trump? Epstein Survivor: Listen, I don't want to send a direct message to him. I'm already scared enough. Just pass the vote. Listen to us. This is not a hoax. It’s not going to go away
Again, these are not the statements of a sane person. Trump is out of his mind. It's ridiculous that we are not having a serious national conversation about his clear decline, and the danger it represents to the country.
Jesus fucking christ i am exhausted of people who refuse to take even 1 class that would introduce them to ideas like the social construction of rules, laws, tech, & definitions of "crime," & who continually learn the wrong lessons from every science fiction story they ever meet. I mean holy shit.
"It is past time for both Hakeem Jeffries and Chuck Schumer to step down and step aside. This fascist moment, this age of Trump, demands outspoken, unrelenting and fearless opposition... we all deserve better." I make the case, in my latest for The Guardian, for new leadership:
military flyovers disrupt the Epstein victim press conference
Fire only 13% contained; two crews taken off the fire and sent to a staging area full of cut logs headed for the lumber mill; given instructions to cut the logs up for firewood, which seemingly would have been illegal. Their supervisor is a no show and then ICE arrives.
Every American should read this ACLU lawsuit about what is happening in Los Angeles and California. It is the stuff of dystopian nightmares. This is not immigration enforcement. It is positively stuffed with videos and articles documenting racial profiling on a scale unseen since Jim Crow.
Fun fact about Vinay Prasad: after years of accusing the government of censoring Conservative voices, he now appears to be personally targeting his critics and using the federal government to take down their Youtube channels. Ask @joho.bsky.social about this.
Vinay Prasad, a former adult oncologist, has moved to disrupt the childhood vaccine schedule by asserting - against all evidence - that administering multiple vaccines at the same time “could blunt their efficacy.” The added burden/delay of separating shots would sharply reduce US vaccination rates.
Anouska de Georgiou: If Ghislaine Maxwell were pardoned, it would undermine all of the sacrifices I made to testify and make mockery of mine and all survivors suffering. That is why the Epstein Files Transparency Act is essential.
Brittany Henderson: This administration can either stand with the victims or continue to hurt them like in the past. We ask that whoever is in charge of redacting these files do it in a way that protects women who are terrified that their names will be released in these files.

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 🧵)
Good morning to you 🌞 from the Southern Coast on the
CONGRESS: it's September 3, 2025 do you know where the Epstein Files are? If not get your asses to work and get them. Americans want to call out and prosecute the fuckers that liked to play and rape young girls.
HAPPENING NOW: Epstein survivor press conference. They deserve to be heard: www.youtube.com/watch?v=q6fU...
So Trump is “vetting” museums. starting with the Holocaust Museum exhibit that calls out America for shutting the door on Jewish refugees. Erasing history is the oldest authoritarian play in the book. "He who controls the past controls the future" - George Orwell
They bombed without warning a non-threatening small boat, which is insane and a violation of international law even if it was carrying contraband which we have no way of knowing, and then gleefully shared it as a snuff video.
These people are simply sick f*cks...
👺Missouri GOP Sen. Mike Moon defended child marriage, citing a 12-year-old’s lasting marriage
This is a United States senator, on his official government account, publicly saying full white nationalism & great replacement theory is central to the country’s identity & the GOP platform. Also: explicitly opposing Lincoln’s message in Gettysburg Address (reference to “proposition”)
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.
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 President saying “we’re going in” — about deploying the military to an American city just to terrorize its people — should be immediately impeachable. Full stop.
I’d like to believe Rudy’s story about the car crash, but I remember Shop Rite 2022.

🧪 Science on Bluesky A new study of 2.6m posts finds research gets far more likes, reposts, and thoughtful replies on @bsky.app than on X. Scholars call it a 'purer' space for discussion. 🔗 www.theguardian.com/technology/2... #SciComm #BlueSky #AcademicSky
degenerateart.beehiiv.com/p/see-no-evil Excellent article on the inability of the Mainstream Media to spot the con, or ignore it and reframe it to stay in the room. @andreapitzer.bsky.social
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.
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
“The voices of survivors have been omitted from the conversation for far too long …This is the moment to stand united to ensure that those who’ve been exploited and abused are heard loud and clear.” www.miamiherald.com/news/politic...
🚨 The silence is over. Tomorrow at 10:30 AM, survivors of Epstein’s abuse will speak on Capitol Hill. Reps. Ro Khanna & Thomas Massie will stand with them. Listen to the victims. Believe them. RELEASE THE FILES ‼️
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
PSA: Zohran is putting on a messaging clinic every time he opens his mouth. The Dems that can’t see it are the ones you should really be afraid of.
Democrats’ favorite research firm told them to avoid discussing Trump’s “rising authoritarianism” and focus on tariffs instead. Story: www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...
starmer is doing all the anti-immigrant and anti-trans "popularism" stuff the centrists are demanding US dems do and this is the predictable result:
"Why should I care about U.S. Space Command being transferred to Alabama? I hate the military-industrial complex. We spend too much money on defense. Why does it matter which rich people get richer off it?" There are a number of reasons you should care, but you really only need one. (thread)
🧵 How many times have you heard "Blacks are 13% of the population and commit 50% of violent crime"? Well, racists have been using the UCR wrong for their tired narrative. Let's set the record straight. Pull up a seat, folks.🪑 #ProudBlue #ResistanceRoots #USDemocracy #Voices4Victory
Terrifying. God help the families in Gaza City Israel Defense Forces Chief of the General Staff Lt. Gen. Eyal Zamir: "We are going to increase and enhance the strikes of our operation. - We have already begun the ground operation in Gaza [City]." abcnews.go.com/Internationa...
The asymmetry between the parties is reflected perfectly in these bad-faith dust-ups over TV news editing. CBS edited Harris down for time; here, by contrast, edited out a bunch of defamatory nonsense from Noem. Fox edits down Trump to make him sound sane. Etc. newrepublic.com/article/1998...
So where are those Epstein files, Pam Bondi? Ruth Marcus: In Ghislaine’s Justice Department interview, she comes off as pathetic, loathsome, and utterly lacking in remorse. The entire operation was damage control—an attempt to exculpate Trump from his own involvement with Jeffrey Epstein.
More framing like this, please www.nytimes.com/2025/09/01/u...
Great story by my colleagues on the constant political realignment of Grok, the generative AI chatbot over on the other site. This change to Grok’s answer about the greatest threat to Western civilization is particularly ironic/meta. Gift link: www.nytimes.com/2025/09/02/t...

Perfect encapsulation of the Trump administration: The guy suing Harvard for alleged antisemitism is a straight-up Hitler-admiring Nazi. www.bostonglobe.com/2025/09/02/m...

Our 400+ page comment on the DOE climate working group report is now out. Our conclusion: The merchants of doubt are back, and they're coming for climate science.
Nice article about the DOE report and how the scientific community is responding www.newsweek.com/why-trumps-m...
Folks, he's too modest to say, but Andrew Dessler has led and coordinated a full-court scientific response to that execrable, climate-denying "report" from the DOE. It was a massive effort, accomplished in mere weeks. And the response itself is of historic importance, because... 1/2

Sickening footage from Nuneaton tonight, where a Sky News interview with a local businessman was disrupted by racists hurling abuse. Another local said, "Warwickshire Council Council has gone to Reform... It's given certain people a licence to be aggressive and racist."
