If a member of your family in the US military gets killed in Iran soon, you can console yourself by knowing that they died to distract from their Commander-in-Chief's pedophilia.
Pressure works. Everything else is theater.
#Trump retreats to Mar-a-Lago. #ICE expands warrantless arrest powers. Institutions fail.
And ordinary people step in anyway. #uspolitics #kakistocracy #authoritarianism #epsteinfiles

"Time to drop a really big bomb: @realDonaldTrump is in the Epstein files."
-- Elon Musk
Guess who else is in the Epstein files, Elon.
The South Carolina measles outbreak is now bigger than last year's Texas outbreak and is happening as the U.S. is poised to lose its measles elimination status.
NPR's Adrian Florido has been buying fruit from the same fruit-cart vendor in his LA neighborhood for years. On Tuesday, Florido was there when federal immigration agents whisked him away.
Was just watching Catherine O'Hara last night in "The Studio" and thought, "She is always so fun." What a sad loss.
I think we need to revisit this Lutnick interview from October after today’s Epstein files release. His story ain’t adding up. bsky.app/profile/meid...
This isn’t about convicting Don Lemon. It’s unlikely that will happen. It’s about intimidating journalists & making them censure themselves out of fear of consequences. It’s about eroding the free press because the administration can’t afford the criticism.
AIDE: "Sir, they are about to release more Epstein Files."
TRUMP: "Go find me a black guy to arrest."
This Epstein drop is HUGE and utterly disgusting. I don’t see how this man is allowed to remain in office. Where are the evangelical leaders, the soccer moms, the folks stocking up on eggs, the farmers, the small business owners.
Decide. Who are you?
Just think about what would be happening in the US right now if Kamala had been elected.
Epstein’s brother Mark on News Nation: “They’re sanitising these files.
“There’s a facility in Winchester, Virginia where they’re scrubbing the files to take Republican names out.”
They’re all just looting the treasury now
Most Americans agree we need to get money out of politics. If that takes a constitutional amendment, then that's what we have to do. And if that's going to take years, then it's all the more reason to begin pushing now.
Brett Meiselas: If the Epstein files had all this evidence that showed Trump actually was not involved and it actually incriminated all these Democrats, Trump would be the first to release them.
But there is a reason that they are keeping all of this information hidden from the American public.
Count the ways they’re corrupting DOJ: Presidents don’t direct AG’s to open criminal cases, especially ones designating only Dems for investigation when POTUS himself is involved. DOJ doesn’t publicize criminal investigations & the AG definitely doesn’t assign them on Twitter.
The DOJ is suing to stop California’s redistricting map. Apparently vote approved maps are a problem, but partisan gerrymanders done without public input are just democracy working as intended?
'Mad as hell': Taylor Swift fans allege Trump's granddaughter stole logo for clothing line
WATCH: "They are underwater across the board, and they know it. And that is causing them to double down in public. But it is backfiring. That is why—whether it's a shutdown, whether it's all of this—they want us to blink first. And we have too much to save," says AOC.

In Alabama, another horrible ICE detention story— pulled over for going 1 mile over the speed limit and then put into detention, a woman who earned a masters degree and has become a beloved community advocate. Not a criminal. Someone who contributes to America. www.al.com/news/2025/08...

At Purple Heart Ceremony, Trump Says, ‘It Wasn’t That Easy for Me Either’ https://twp.ai/4ip7RE
This time period is like if Abraham Lincoln was on the side of the Confederacy.
Republicans rejected my effort to protect rural hospitals from their devastating cuts to health care. Shameful.
No billionaire tax break or Trump pat on the back is worth the risk to people’s lives and livelihoods.
Growing up, my dad lost his job after getting MS. Mom was raising 7 kids & needed skills training before she could find work—both unemployed for months.
Food stamps kept us fed, but my family wouldn't even qualify today under the Big Ugly bill.
It's just wrong. Senators must vote NO.
Republican Senator John Cornyn just last month said “there should not be any cuts to safety net program like Medicaid”
Then why did he just vote against an amendment that would prevent cuts to Medicaid?
