Keep the Epstein story alive.
Authoritarian regimes demand to control knowledge. Independent research, questioning, and expertise —the whole « modern » realm of facts—is anathema to them.
A Senator Just Unapologetically Declared the U.S. a White Homeland
🚨Trump drops all pretense and openly admits the mass raids in Chicago are about ICE raids and deportations (not crime), and essentially declares that he’s going to war with the city.
Mango Mussolini was found civilly liable for sexual assault, over two dozen women have accused him of sexual impropriety, he claimed that it was perfectly okay for him to grab women by their genitalia, and he has documented ties to Epstein; yet, we are supposed to believe he was an “FBI informant.”
Trump's attack on Harvard and other universities has very little to do with the law and everything to do with his desire to bring them "to heel." The essence of the administration's attack is on "perceived liberal bias," a debatable characterization, that is, in any event, not a legal category.
Because that is exactly how it looks.
Would we go to war based on Trump's historically twisted perceptions?
Eric Schmidt reporting from inside Donald Trump's head www.nytimes.com/2025/09/05/u...
tRump (Awful Orange Twatwaffle): 'Where were the [Democrats] during [Epstein's] very public trials?' Epstein never went to trial in his life. He did a sweetheart plea deal and then later was found dead before trial. Exactly the kind of lie you would expect from someone involved in the crimes.
Keep up the pressure! Release the Epstein files (and well done to the victims for creating their own!)
🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨 Never before seen picture of tRump working undercover for the FBI to bring dow Epstein.
Get this! Mike Johnson is now claiming — with no evidence whatsoever — that Donald Trump once served as an FBI informant to help dismantle sex offender Jeffrey Epstein’s trafficking network. Johnson told reporters Trump “was an FBI informant in an effort to take Epstein down.” I’M NOT JOKING!!! 🤣🤣
The lethal strike on a boat in the Caribbean on Tuesday was a criminal attack on civilians, according to a high-ranking Pentagon official ....(from The Intercept)
On our unilateral disarmament: America is reorienting its foreign policy to help governments that manipulate and suppress information. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv...
Trump threatened Katie Johnson (pseudonym) with physical harm if she dared go through with suing him or reporting on him after he brutally raped her. Let's see the media ask Mike Johnson if that, too, was part of Trump's FBI informant mission.
Remember, every illegal move Trump is making with our military is being followed through, down the chain of command. Trump is not acting independently. This cannot be stressed enough. This is what the American military is now, in service to Trump, not to country.
@denisedwheeler.bsky.social
The FULL Epstein Files need to be released. Not some version that’s been heavily reviewed and redacted by Trump’s DOJ. EVERYTHING. That’s why I’ve signed the House discharge petition for complete transparency.
Thanks Santa!
Trump's military flyover yesterday happened right as Epstein survivor Anouska de Georgiou was speaking. Ghislaine Maxwell introduced de Georgiou to Trump at a party in NYC in 1997. De Georgiou and her daughter continue to be stalked, followed, and threatened.
#ToySoldierTrump Twisted Soldier Boy Trump 3 days' Misuse of Military: National Guard picking up trash in DC Orders planes/drones to blow up speedboat international waters on suspicion of drug smuggling DC jets low flyover to disrupt Epstein survivors' press conference www.pbs.org/wgbh/frontli...
In a metaphor that was too on-the-nose, there was a military flyover in Washington, D.C. that drowned out Epstein survivors who were speaking out. I'm happy to report they persisted.
Forget all the corrupt DOJ actions. Just remember that the last gilded age ended with the death of Harding and most of his cabinet going to prison.
BREAKING: 144 servers, bussers, and bartenders for Casa Bonita in Denver are unionizing with @iatse.bsky.social Casa Bonita is owned by Matt and Trey, creators of South Park. IATSE currently represents entertainment employees at the venue.
Imagine ordering 8 fighter jets to scream over Epstein survivors so they couldn’t be heard — and then asking the public to believe you’re innocent.
They are privatizing Medicare, which means they will profit off denial of coverage. Say no to the GOP or face loss of insurance.
Protect these women. Remember, too, none of these women are suicidal. One stated she has been threatened and her daughter threatened, stalked on numerous occasions. Another stated her sister had been threatened. It’s very clear these women are still absolutely terrified of any retaliation.
I’ve studied US drone strikes, I wrote a book called “Drones and Terrorism,” and this Caribbean strike is different. Lethal fire at a non-threatening target in a non-hostile environment on purpose when other means, such as capture, were easily doable, and without even attempting a legal rationale.
We need an HHS Secretary who respects science and does not make policy based on conspiracy theories. Vaccines are safe and effective. Kennedy is threatening the health of our kids and all Americans. He must resign.
Incitement.. also against the law
kinda like this: www.nytimes.com/2025/09/04/u...

1/ I worked at DoD. I literally cannot imagine lawyers coming up with a legal basis for lethal strike of suspected Venezuelan drug boat. Hard to see how this would not be "murder" or war crime under international law that DoD considers applicable. Read expert analysis by @bcfinucane.bsky.social⤵️
“The Trump administration is waging a war on disabled people and working to undo the hard-won rights our elders secured." House Dems blast Labor Department for abandoning disabled workers.
BREAKING: Trump administration appeals to the Supreme Court after a lower court ruling found most of his sweeping tariffs illegal.
His "gold guy" from Florida has ripped him off.
Al Gore didn’t hold back: The Trump admin is “attacking the heart of truth,” twisting facts like the Nazis did in the 1930s. From climate denial to rewriting the Ukraine war, it’s all about power—not reality. Gore warned the U.S. is under siege—and every former leader should speak out like he did.
🧵 Today, survivor Lisa Phillips spoke out with bravery and clarity. She told the world how she was taken to Epstein’s island and introduced to Katie Ford, then head of the Ford Modeling Agency. Her testimony makes clear: Maxwell and Epstein didn’t just abuse girls in Florida.
Marc Elias: The authoritarian playbook comes to America…
That's the way I see it. I agree with you. may have violated international human rights and maritime law, (BBC)
You are reporting for Donald Trump?:
but if trump instigates war with venezuela then he can say... see i was right! and deport at will.... is that it?
Fifth Circuit dismantles Trump's dusty 1798 war relic, scoffing at "invasion" fantasies over Venezuelan migrants and Tren de Aragua phantoms, exposing executive overreach as mere theatrical bluster. #MigrantRights
Venezuelan youth mobilises as US cranks up hostilities - US baseless accusations of drug trafficking and the outrageous putting of a bounty on a president of a sovereign country do not bode well, reports PABLO MERIGUET morningstaronline.co.uk/article/vene...
The Venezuelan army said the army raised its alert level after uncovering a U.S. plot seeking to fabricate an incident at waters the country is disputing with Guyana that would create a justification to invade the South American country. WTF is tRump up to? Another distraction?
A federal appeals court late Tuesday rejected Trump’s attempts to use the Aliens Enemy Act to deport immigrants he has accused of belonging to a violent Venezuelan street gang, another big loss for Trump’s agenda.
🚨 A federal appeals court has blocked Trump’s use of the 1798 Alien Enemies Act to deport Venezuelan immigrants. 🔹 Judges said: Due process cannot be ignored, even for alleged gang members. 🔹 The ruling halts Trump’s deportation in Southern states.
when a boat surpasses 500 tons it can be classified as a ship. this disproportionate use of lethal force should be reported with facts, not with the president's claims. NYT screwed the pooch again.
well, he blew up a speedboat. may have violated international human rights and maritime law, says the BBC
so start a war to justify use of wartime law, eh donald?
may have violated international human rights and maritime law, (BBC)
point taken.
But if Trump wages war on Venezuela by blowing up a speedboat and amassing warships trained on the coast, then he can call venezuelans in US enemy aliens and deport at will..... right, Donald?
And I share it!
Pritzker: When did we become a country where it's okay for the 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?
🚨BREAKING: A federal judge ruled Tuesday that President Donald Trump’s use of National Guard troops and Marines in Los Angeles earlier this year violated a federal law that prohibits using the military as a domestic police force. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...
Trump is attacking unions, driving up costs, and dismantling workers’ rights. On Labor Day, we’re reminded that America deserves better. I’m proud to have helped author the PRO Act to expand workers’ rights & strengthen unions—and I’ll keep fighting to put workers first.
Unions built this city and keep it running. They’ve fought against power and greed to make the impossible possible. Now, they need an ally in City Hall. On Labor Day, the presidents of the Hotel Trades Council, 32BJ and SEIU 1199 make the case at @cityandstateny.bsky.social.
i think the case is that now the woman will receive child support which is counted as income, so her SNAP benefits would be recalculated, not automatically suspended.
Anyway, I’m glad to know the president is still technically alive so he can watch this tomorrow www.usatoday.com/story/news/p...
Wages of unionized workers are 13% higher than their nonunion counterparts. But unions also set a higher pay standard that all workers enjoy. In high-union-density states, median household income is $12,000 higher than in low-union-density states. This is why unions are vital.

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.
BREAKING: Bernie Sanders wants RFK Jr. under oath. He’s demanding a special Senate hearing on the CDC disaster RFK Jr. helped create. Go Bernie!
Pritzker: "We don't want troops on the streets of American cities. That's un-American and frankly the president ought to know better. This one doesn't seem to. He hasn't read any books. He doesn't seem to understand the Constitution or the laws."
Pritzker: "No one in the administration -- the president or anybody under him -- has called anyone in my administration or me. It's clear that in secret they're are planning this invasion with US troops."
He’s providing them with valuable mulching experience though.
He won’t let the press anywhere near him. This is getting weirder and weirder.
“Let’s begin by saying that we are living through a very dangerous time.” So opens “A Talk to Teachers,” which James Baldwin delivered to a group of educators in October, 1963.
for your list: "nationwide, Black women lost 319,000 jobs in the public and private sectors between February and July of this year" trump admin has disproportionately fired black women from federal workforce. DEI doublespeak.
ICE should not be detaining any U.S. citizens, period. Congress must pass my legislation to ban this practice immediately. www.newsweek.com/us-citizen-d...
This is where we are 😞
something IS happening... the law moves slowly... trump counts on it.
I really hope this becomes the black eye it deserves to be www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...
Make no mistake: when Congress reconvenes next week, Mike Johnson’s mission will be to shield the Epstein files from the public.
Television legend Stephen Colbert has just signed a $13.5 million deal with Netflix for a 7-episode series.

Congratulations to the White River Junction VA Medical Center staff for receiving a 4-star rating from the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services. It's a sign of the lifesaving work they do. Vermonters appreciate having this excellent hospital taking care of our veterans.
But we just saw that... Trump didn't like the employment data so he fired the labor statistics chief... RFK doesn't like the CDC numbers so... off with their heads!!
epstein family subpoenaed and giuffre's book coming out... it will be the will of the people that turns against him and demands accountability. that's where i think we are going with this.
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.
Garcia: We finally got word from the Epstein estate. They're going to be providing the actual Epstein book… the estate is actually going to actually now get us that book and a bunch of other documents that they have that's actually not been reported yet.
ok buddy
