This is a #pterosaur, the Quetzalcoatlus with a human standing beside it for comparison. We would have been easy pickings.

Thomas Massie pushed for the release of the Epstein files, and the response has been tens of millions in outside spending, smear campaigns, and coordinated attacks. If this is what they do to a sitting member of Congress, imagine what Epstein survivors face when considering whether to come forward.

Hi Bluesky 👋 I finally deleted my X/Twitter account today after years of going back and forth about it. Walking away from nearly 4k followers was honestly terrifying. Washington photographer obsessed with wildlife, ferries, storms, and dramatic Pacific Northwest light ❤️

Just another normal day at DOJ where they have to withdraw a filing in New Hampshire that was intended for Minnesota.

I love and respect this scientist. Carl Sagan answers a question about creation vs evolution.

For the umpteenth time: The most corrupt president in American history.

This is amazing - @kevinolearytv 🤡 is fearmongering about Chinese agents opposing his giant Utah data center… but it’s 2 young local girls in Utah who hilariously call him (and his “dumbass hat”) out👇🏽 Full: www.instagram.com/reel/DYU074V...

BREAKING: The DOJ is now 146 days overdue in releasing the Epstein files.

President Obama: “We pulled it off without firing a missile. We got 97% of their enriched uranium out. There’s no dispute that it worked and we didn’t have to kill a whole bunch of people or shut down the Strait of Hormuz.”

The Trump admin doesn't really care about Medicaid fraud. If they did, Trump wouldn't have commuted the sentence of Philip Esformes and he wouldn't allow Sen Rick Scott, who oversaw a 1.7 BILLION MEDICARE/MEDICAID FRAUD SCANDAL, serve in government.

None of this would be happening right now if Donald Trump had gone to prison for January 6th like he should have

Look, I get wanting to protect your trademark. But, this kind of legal bullying is BS. Y'all know what to do. Here is the website for the Friends for Animals of Metro Detroit: www.metrodetroitanimals.org. Show them some love. 🩷

@robertgarcia.house.gov announced this morning the release of the below report, based on bank records & other documents, on how Alex Acosta's sweetheart plea deal helped Epstein continue and expand his global network of sexual abuse. oversightdemocrats.house.gov/imo/media/do...

AOC on possibly running for the Senate or President: They assume my ambition is a title or a seat. My ambition is way bigger than that. My ambition is to change this country. Presidents come and go, elected officials come and go, single payer healthcare is forever.

It’s going to be so delicious when the GOP gets their ass kicked in November anyway. Hey Republicans, after you’ve tried to prevent as many people from voting as possible AND rig the map in your favor, what’s the excuse going to be when you still lose?

Ivermectin in an anti-parasitic. It kills parasites. Viruses are not parasites. Thank you for coming to my TED talk.

And the Supreme Court cries foul..fuck them all

Wow, and they lied to us?? Who would have thought.

California would be a HUGE win for the movement to restore adoptees’ rights to their own identities. 🥚

The federal government has turned over evidence from the shooting death of Renee Good by ICE agent Jonathan Ross to a magistrate judge in U.S. District Court for Minnesota, according to an attorney involved in a case tangential to Ross. www.startribune.com/federal-gove...

Mayor Karen Bass

This is exactly why language matters: “women were given the vote” frames equality as a gift from men, instead of hard won political power extracted through organized resistance. Nobody gave women anything. Women fought, marched, strategized, endured violence, went to prison and died for it.

ICE agent Jonathan Ross shot and killed Renee Good. Reports say he is now back on active duty in another state while the FBI probe remains stalled. No charges. No public accountability. A dead mother. A protected agent. This is protection for the machinery.

Trump wants Jimmy Kimmel fired for a joke. I want Trump fired for rape, abuse, fraud, theft, corruption, and a derelict of duty.

This is not the first IQ test Posobiec has failed - nor is it likely to be the last.

Today's my 62nd birthday. In a good year, I would write a letter to my friends, family and folks who enjoy my writing describing an aspect of my life. In a bad year, I might dictate a letter from the Grim Reaper reminding me to savor my life. This year, the Grim Reaper moved in to my home.

CBS didn’t air some particularly troubling rants, which depict a man who is much more petulant and incoherent than the broadcast would suggest. Read the entire transcript in full here: trib.al/mVertTn

The tree was once considered a guardian of one's origins. One would lay a hand on its rough bark and remember where one truly belonged. For the roots of a tree do not grow in haste. They seek their way in secret, find purchase in the darkness, and then bear the weight of a lifetime.

I am seeking the appointment of a Special Master to assist in getting the DOJ to comply with the Epstein Files Transparency Act. It's time that the lawyers in the Trump Regime actually follow the law.

KIMMEL: “You know how sometimes you wake up and the First Lady demands you be fired? We’ve all been there, right? — I agree hateful, violent rhetoric is something we should reject… a great place to start to dial that back would be to talk to your husband.”

Oh hey, “private donations” are no longer paying for the ballroom. Who could have seen that coming?

Hasn’t whined about needing a ballroom to feel safe

The DOJ violates the Epstein Files Transparency Act on the daily. So I'm suing Todd Blanche. As a journalist, I cannot report accurately on the Epstein Files if I cannot even read them. I am represented by @brendanballou.bsky.social & we seek to hold the DOJ accountable for its noncompliance.

The Epstein Files were not harmed in tonight's staged theatrical event.

Mass destruction of nature SHOULD BE A CRIME #StopEcocide #nature #biocide #WarOnWildlife #Ecocide

Justice for all. Believe women. We will never stop talking about Epstein until all of the guilty are held accountable for their crimes. #SheShed

Note that there's been no threat to sue over this statement. I know I would be suing for tens of millions if I was innocent.

Whoever called the faction of the press who still want to attend the White House Correspondents Dinner the ‘Access of Evil’ I salute you

Don’t judge a book by its review count. I met a fellow indie crime author who exchanged books with me. He only had 1 review. Started reading & it’s damn good! Review count doesn’t = quality. Sometimes great books just haven’t been discovered yet. Give indie books a chance. #AuthorSky #BookSky
