#Caturday 5am in this dystopian America. I read a post about old men crippled by time living out their days in a monastery. The building internally decorated with memorabilia from their youth. Everyone instructed to act as if 30 years ago was present day. Rejuvenation.

Let’s do that.

Why was this story on the front page of the UK’s Daily Telegraph β€” but NOT America’s leading newspapers?

In addition to allegations of raping children, Trump is accused of otherwise assaulting them, threatened them repeatedly, and blackmailed and harassed them for years. He’s a monster.
He's also accused of confessing to Epstein that he uses illegal building permits.

Former President Joe Biden goes from making me teary speaking about Rev. Jesse Jackson in a wheelchair, undeterred, and speaking about his son Beau, to making me laugh at the end.

Joe will always be a great man.

Four Corporate Democrats Just Helped MAGA Keep an Illegal War Alive Call them out and sign the petition demanding the House re-vote to stop this illegal war

Congress could have stopped an illegal war. Instead, four Democrats voted to let Donald Trump continue it. War costs lives and taxpayer dollars better spent on healthcare, education, and economic opportunity.

CNN put together a video illustrating that while Trump regime officials keep describing the Iran strikes as a "war," Republican members of Congress are using all sorts of euphemisms

NHS official pushed to add patient data to Palantir platform whilst also advising company

A lobbyist who worked directly for Peter Mandelson, on the Palantir board, and on the board of *four* NHS trusts.

Lobbying the NHS to hand over even more patient data to Palantir.

This absolutely stinks. Get Palantir out of the NHS. Sign my petition:

Trump's war on elections is hiding in plain sight False claims that foreign government interference caused him to lose in 2020 have been a staple of the diet of lies Trump feeds to his faithful.

Donald Trump is seeking to collect massive amounts of information β€” including personal and partisan voter data β€” at an unprecedented scale. He is trying to pressure AI companies into allowing unrestricted use of their powerful tools against American citizens. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/trum...

The Cover-up
The Cover-up YouTube video by The Lincoln Project

Trump's DOJ deleted 65,527 pages from the Epstein files, covering up the truth. Info on Epstein’s death, call logs, photos with Lutnick - all gone. And Trump thinks MAGA will stand by and cheer on another needless war.

The money behind the new Iran War In private calls over the last several weeks, Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman urged President Trump to attack Iran.

1. Jared Kushner makes $25 million each year in from the Saudi Public Investment Fund

2. Kushner led negotiations with Iran, despite business entanglements

3. Saudi crown prince MBS urged Trump admin to attack Iran

Sen Mark Warner stunning words after briefing from Trump regime: "Let's bc clear. There was no imminent threat to the United States by the Iranians. There was a threat to Israel. If we equate a threat to Israel as the equivalent of an imminent threat to the US, then we are in uncharted territory."
