An NPR investigation finds the public database of Epstein files is missing dozens of pages related to sexual abuse accusations against President Trump. n.pr/4qTItsU
Why was the Department of Justice directed to “stand down” their investigations into Jeffrey Epstein after his arrest during Trump’s first term?
Trump won’t give us the truth. Bill Barr and Christopher Wray must testify before @democrats-judiciary.house.gov.
Two days ago it was Elissa Slotkin. Last week it was Jerome Powell. Before that, Mark Kelly. Weaponizing the justice system against your opponents is an authoritarian tactic.
The only person not being investigated for the shooting of Renee Good is the federal agent who shot her.
If you are a veteran, this kind of visible presence at anti-ICE protests is really valuable.
These clowns all want to play dress-up soldier, so actual soldiers mocking them to their faces is devastating.
🇺🇸 MINNEAPOLIS VETERAN: "They are terrorizing the population, in Afghanistan we never wore masks.” (From @statuscoupnews.bsky.social )
I am impeaching Secretary Kristi Noem, who is an incompetent leader and a disgrace to our democracy.
She wreaked havoc in the Chicagoland area and has brought her reign of terror to Minneapolis. One of her rogue ICE agents shot and killed an innocent woman today. It must come to an end.
The censorship algorithm on Twitter reduced our audience by roughly 95%, and seriously, who does that to a wildlife biology & advocacy group ?

instead of saying this was good strategy, maybe senate dems should say: "the republicans were going to kill people by starving them to death, and because we aren't monsters, we decided to let this fight go. We'll keep fighting. Stop electing monsters."
Gorden absolutely nailed it here (in a way that the front office has not).

The truth is both that Stephen Miller seems to be the actual president and just saying "President Stephen Miller" out loud often enough might make Trump do something about it.

just a reminder that there were people of the time — and of the same class and station — who saw this stuff and thought, "yeah this is bullshit"
America is being run by people whose social media presence would see them getting fired from a part time job stacking shelves.
If you worked at Aldi and posted a video of you pouring shit all over Aldi customers, you wouldn't work at Aldi.
NEW ADS AND DATA: Democrats are still operating from a place of fear on immigration, but they absolutely have an opportunity to go on offense against Stephen Miller's horrifying ICE raids. This ad, Afraid of Americans, was the strongest approach of the four that we tested.
What a wonderful story. I am nearly 50 and I am still terrible at remembering names, especially when I’m nervous. So, I obviously fell into a career in sales…
/25 The receptionist had been there for decades — back, I am sure, to the era of reform-school boys. I am confident she had seen far more troubling hijinks. She didn’t have to help. But she smoothly saved me. And I remember her, 45 years later — a life ago. No doubt she’s gone now, but I remember.
The Atlantic’s journalists will not sign the Pentagon’s press policy. Statement here from editor in chief Jeffrey Goldberg:

![Can you put into words what that purpose is? You and the frog have really become icons of this protest.
There’s been a nice overall whimsy that has shown up. The frog is amazing. We had a bunch of other inflatable people here last night, too. I saw people playing Twister the other day.
What they rely on is fear. So by coming out in an absurdist manner, it speaks to them, to some extent, that we’re actually not that afraid.
It also dismantles their narrative a little bit. When they try to describe this situation as “war-torn,” it becomes much harder to take them seriously when they have to post a video saying [U.S. Secretary of Homeland Security] Kristi Noem is up on the balcony staring over the Antifa Army and it’s, like, eight journalists and five protesters and one of them is in a chicken suit.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:lzlqyldh7nfc34pfffvd24ko/bafkreiap6asa64jdjb2vlv4c2sdritjrntsibvsv7baj6o4cgwcfgsjeny)

Serious question: does there come a point where everyone admits that Constitutional originalism is just a made-up vibe-based philosophy that gives Republican judges a pretext for ruling however it is that Republicans want them to rule?
This is good, from Hakeem Jeffries. More of this please, in every conceivable forum:
"Sycophants who aid and abet the President’s vengeful schemes will not be able to hide from the serious legal consequences of their behavior. They will be held accountable."
Text of the fourth amendment “The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized.”
Just posting this. Everyone knows why.
Our news networks should air an hour or two of European news every day to show Americans how flabbergasted the news presenters are here when they cover the U.S.
to me, the “column” is less a form than an opportunity (and a challenge). you’re telling me i have as much space as i’d like to make an argument about anything i’d like to an audience inclined to pay close attention? well let’s see if they’ll read 2000 words on democratic legitimacy. (gift link)
/3 Previously it has been the Right that more reliably asserted that “hate speech” was not a First Amendment exception. But the Right’s pretense to caring about actual freedom of speech has been revealed to be sheer bunk.
