I’m don’t doubt he wants it to happen, he’s doing all he can to drive our country into the ground

DOJ releases Epstein files with accusations against Trump Over the course of four interviews in 2019, a woman told the FBI that Epstein and Trump sexually abused her in the 1980s.

“A DOJ source told the Miami Herald that agents found her to be credible—and that they would not have interviewed her four times if they thought she was lying.”

Well, gas is expensive, and food is expensive, and we’re doing a war nobody wants, but at least there are no jobs

If you took $1 billion and gave it to the endowment of a different small college each day, they could each provide a free college education to several hundred students per year in perpetuity. Instead we are using that money to bomb schools and kill students in Iran, for no clearly stated purpose.

Anyway, can someone remind me who the heads of the DHS and FBI are at the moment?

Surely they will stop any such an attack.

A bullock runs up a Cotswolds hill as the sun sets in the background, making everyone feel like they have stepped into one of the illustrations by Kit Williams in his book Masquerade, even though at that point the bullock hadn’t read it (I loaned him my spare copy later that evening in a pub in Dursley and, as anticipated, he never returned it to me, which is fine, and just the way things go with books).

Almost certainly the most psychedelic photo I have taken of a bullock at sunset.

Jayapal to Noem: "None of these four US citizens were charged with a crime, none had their citizenship questioned, and all were lawfully exercising their First Amendment rights. Do you have anything you want to say to them?"

UPDATE: Trump says the US is already chartering flights and booking flights for Americans.

But I just called the hotline again, and it STILL begins with: “Do not rely on the U.S. government for assisted departure or evacuation.”

How is anyone supposed to understand that?

A Possible US Government iPhone-Hacking Toolkit Is Now in the Hands of Foreign Spies and Criminals A highly sophisticated set of iPhone hijacking techniques has likely infected tens of thousands of phones or more. Clues suggest it was originally built for the US government.

NEW: Researchers at Google and @iverify.bsky.social discovered a set of iPhone-hacking techniques that has the characteristics of hacking tools made for the US gov't. Apple patched the 23 vulnerabilities in its latest version of iOS. @agreenberg.bsky.social reports: www.wired.com/story/coruna...

Americans Stranded in the Middle East Aren’t Getting Help from the State Department “Please do not rely on the U.S. government for assisted departure or evacuation,” a State department hotline said when NOTUS called Tuesday afternoon.

NEWS: Americans were told to evacuate the Middle East — but the State Dept is not helping them do it.

We called the State hotline. First thing you hear is an automated message: "Do not rely on the U.S. government for assisted departure or evacuation."

Gorgeous art! Makes me want to buy more of your books!

Seems bad

He’s clinically insane I think

Read to the end, there are templates to comment. We can’t be silent!

Trump promised to lower costs and instead engaged in a trade war that sent the cost of everything surging.

His presidency is a graveyard of broken promises. Meanwhile, he's doubled his own net worth. Can any of his voters say the same?

Trump promised to protect earned benefits and instead gutted Medicaid from 17 million Americans and cut ACA subsidies from 24 million Americans.

Trump promised to end inflation and inflation is currently *rising.* It's effectively at the same rate as when Biden left office.

Trump promised no new wars and has engaged in military action in Iran, Venezuela, Yemen, Somalia, Nigeria, Syria and Iraq.

Trump promised to end the Russia-Ukraine war in 24 hours. It's still raging a year later.

I really need an interdimensional portal right now thanks @dj-acid-reflux.bsky.social

“If Kamala wins, only death and destruction await because she is the candidate of endless wars. I am the candidate of peace. I am peace.” - Trump, 11/1/24

“I’m not going to start a war, I’m going to stop wars.” - Trump, 11/5/24

Welp

Here are six steps experts sugges...

Few patients appeal a health insurance denial, but a little-known process that requires insurers and plans to seek an independent opinion can force insurers to pay for what can be lifesaving treatment.

Here’s what experts say you need to know.

How Kansas Republicans weaponized the law to target 300 trans driver's license holders SB 244 was put into effect virtually overnight, causing chaos, panic and fear in the trans community.

New — I spoke to eight trans people in Kansas about the new state law that invalidated their driver’s licenses overnight, what’s it’s like to live there right now, plus details of two DMV emails exclusively obtained by The Handbasket that shed light on the law’s chaotic and cruel rollout:

I'm begging my fellow politicians, Illinoisans, and Americans to realize that right now, we aren't fighting over policy or political party.

We're fighting over whether we're going to be a country rooted in empathy and kindness — or one rooted in cruelty and rage.

There is no amount of money in the world that would lead me to fight a Vietnamese refugee that grew up in Louisiana

Proof that every accusation from the party of trump is actually a confession 👇🏻👇🏻👇🏻

The absence of a better choice is never a reason to support a Nazi, or a Nazi fellow traveler, or anyone who thinks Nazis on any issue "had a point," or an asshole who thinks trolling with Nazism he then retracts is a clever media strategy, oe anyone who thinks Nazis have any use at all.
