Q: Why/how has Bannon avoided blowback for his chummy ties with Epstein? Is it that so many journalists, across the political spectrum, value him as a source? Someone please enlighten me!

I @ed Scott (on his official account) this morning to hold him accountable. Also @ed John James, who wants to be Governor of MI. If you're from FL you might @ Byron Donalds.

Here's a photo of my and current NFL MVP Matthew Stafford's third grade basketball team He was good, the rest of us were not

Trump has posted on Truth Social about 65 times in the last 90 minutes, including a video he posted at 8:44 PM PT describing election fraud lies that shows racist AI images of Michelle and Barack Obama as monkeys at the end. I’ve confirmed this is real and watched it myself. 25th Amendment now.

What the ever loving fuck is happening; this 🧵:

I’d like to alert my fellow Olympics Nerds that there’s a new event this year where you have to CLIMB A MOUNTAIN WITH YOUR SKIS ON YOUR BACK and then ski down it!

Buckle up, friends in academia:

As a doctor, I am horrified by what I saw at the Whipple detention facility in Minneapolis. No medical protocols. No real medical care. No nurse on site when I visited. No beds. No real blankets. Extremely cold temperatures. Minimal food. These conditions are inhumane and unacceptable.

RFK is using his position to push things that have never shown any benefit in autism & have shown serious harms, including numerous dead kids thru the years. Why push for things known to harm instead of looking for things that could actually provide benefit? Because the harmful things are profitable

You guys this is what they do. They drive around in circles in parking lot. Ice has to be the most dip shit inefficient organization on the planet.

In just a few years, we've gone from Republican public figures joking about greeting their daughter's prom date at the door with a shotgun to them openly questioning if it's really all that bad for older men to groom teenage girls.

NEW: Last spring, Tulsi investigated Puerto Rico's voting machines for foreign interference by Maduro. This was before the raid in Fulton County, and before we had Maduro in custody. See where this is going? www.reuters.com/world/americ...

It's reminded me how many academics think that young women are a renewable resource meant to be sacrificed for old men to be happy.

Art!

This is tremendous. Take the time to watch it.

A good 🧵:

🧵:

@sarahkendzior.bsky.social is inimitable in her smartness—this is a VERY good & important listen:

happening this morning in Minneapolis -- ICE agents drawing guns on observers. I reiterate again that it is only a matter of time before DHS kills more innocent people in Minnesota. Congress needs to shut this shit down right now.

Jesus.

I have been warning for months that he is going to try to steal the election. That is why my law firm is litigating 80 voting cases with more on the way. It is also why I tell people to sign up for Democracy Docket to stay imformed. hubs.ly/Q03M8rql0

Help us out, we suck at math — which is more $125 million or $8 million?

Yep, I liked & am sharing my own post. That’s how important & full of joy/love this is:

Trump is going to demolish the Kennedy Center, isn't he

NEW: EXCLUSIVE: Epstein files tipster tells me about her friend who was trafficked from Trump's modeling agency to Epstein. She sat for a formal interview with the FBI, but her 302 is MISSING from the release of the files. I'll show you what I have in 20 minutes: www.youtube.com/live/xiSmcNV...

Some jawdropping CBP crime statistics here...

is one of the journalists following me taking notes?

In light of the classical music names showing up in the new batch of Epsteulin files (some folks clearly just coincidentally, others less so) I want to point out that Interlochen cut ties with Epstein (who wa san alumnus) in 2008

Lindsey had quite a day yesterday. Keeping up with him is a full time job. When I beat him, none of us will ever have to worry about him again. Doesn’t that sound amazing? 💙🇺🇸💙

👇🏽 @gallego.senate.gov amplifying a witness who worked for Epstein swearing under oath Trump/Epstein threatened witnesses with death/disappearance if they revealed the child sex abuse she witnessed

The replies = delightful:

The Epstein emails should really end the debate over whether society should have billionaires. "Do you want there to be a class of people so powerful they can fuck your kids and no one will even try to do anything" seems like an easy sell if everyone in politics wasn't trying to get on their payroll

Watch @chrislhayes.bsky.social face when he picks up what @asharangappa.bsky.social is putting down. Keep in mind that Giuliani advised Trump in Dec 2020 the only way the DoD could seize voting machines is if there were foreign election interference, which Sidney Powell then tried to fabricate.

It's near-white out conditions in Chicago as the snow comes down, and tonight's anti-ICE/CBP rally is wrapping up in front of city hall. But not before the crowd bounces and chants, "I believe that we will win!"

Listen to her words on art, in this very short interview she said so much. Such a beautiful human: m.youtube.com/watch?v=UrG2...

Catherine O’Hara of Beetlejuice and Schitt’s Creek has died at age 71. RIP to one of the all-time greatest women in comedy. people.com/catherine-oh...

Mass movements force change. ICE has committed human rights abuses and those responsible must be prosecuted. As people protest all across the country today, our office is a third space. We are open for mutual aid support, free posters, and bracelet-making for anyone who needs community.

I don't think people understand that if you shut down the government, ICE and CBP do NOT shut down. They're funded by supplemental money from the BBB. That's why dems are separating the DHS funding bill and asking for restrictions. I want them to demand a rescission of that funding or shut DHS down
