Every bit of this is awful, most especially the very private private school: Zuckerberg’s Compound Had Something That Violated City Code: A Private School www.nytimes.com/2025/08/10/u...

Reported out and wrote about the current state of the Proud Boys, militias, and similarly styled far-right groups. They were the bleeding edge of the right in Trump I, but in Trump II, they’ve been superseded. The federal government is the vanguard now. www.theatlantic.com/technology/a...

Wolff: This is a key issue right now in the way the White House is looking at the Epstein scandal. The fear is that Ghislaine Maxwell can tie Donald Trump to the details of what Trump and Epstein called the P*ssy Committee. The Committee consisted of their efforts to get girls for Prince Andrew.

The press freedom crisis in America isn't only billionaires bowing down at big outlets like CBS, the Post. In L.A., elsewhere, indie journalists at protests are getting beat up or arrested by cops, a chilling sign of an authoritarian U.S. police state My new column www.inquirer.com/opinion/los-...

This is the way.

Constitution sections on due process and foreign gifts just vanished from Congress' website Include provisions such as habeas corpus, forbidding the naming of titles of nobility, and forbidding foreign emoluments for U.S. officials. www.404media.co/constitution...

I see why he bankrupted casinos.

Over 90 pages of "Alligator Alcatraz" files disappeared as I was looking at them and reporting on the situation. Our public records requests are getting stonewalled. A slew of experts told me this all seems to be illegal. talkingpointsmemo.com/muckraker/th...

Newsom: He knows he’s going to lose in the midterms, and we have the opportunity to de facto end the Trump presidency in less than 18 months. That’s what’s at stake. That’s why we’re putting a stake in the ground. We’re not drawing lines just to draw lines—we’re holding the line: on democracy.

According to NYT the problem is not Trump’s Justice Department regularly lying to judges, but judges refusing to believe their lies. NYT is a Trump collaborator.

Odd

The U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit has ordered the ICE raids that terrorized LA to stop. Over to you, Chief Justice Roberts!

In an effort to attract new recruits, ICE is offering incentives including signing bonuses of up to $50,000 and student loan forgiveness/repayment options. No student loan debt forgiveness for teachers, nurses or other vital professionals!

It's a cover-up.

A university scientist who discovered alarming levels of toxic chemicals in a lake in southeastern Louisiana was abruptly removed from her research position this week without explanation

Remember when Republicans were against pedophiles?

A system that allows a convicted criminal rapist tyrannical traitor to gain full totalitarian control of the U.S. govt without so much as a guardrail in place to protect us from him and his deranged destructive immoral corrupt agenda is a highly flawed and broken system.

www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025... I guess that will be the very LAST correct report we will ever get from Pedolini

Remember Trump’s big promise to lower your grocery bill on day one? According to June figures from the Labor Department: All ground beef up 11% Chuck roast up 7.2% Round roast up 12.8% Sirloin steak up 12.7% Beef for stew up 10.7% SO. MUCH. WINNING. 🙄 www.usatoday.com/story/money/...

This idiocy condemns the next generation to a future of emergencies and shortages. No one should work in or vote on climate policy unless and until they have taken basic courses in climate science.

Virginia Giuffre was first trafficked by Epstein in 2001. Within one year, Trump would tell NY Magazine of Epstein, "It is even said that he likes beautiful women as much as I do, and many of them are on the younger side." Meaning he clearly knew who Epstein was and STILL exposed these girls to him.

He’s right.

Listen to Pete.

This is how our government has been corrupted: 1) Donors give huge sums to elect politicians to office. 2) Elected officials rewrite the rules in the donors' favor. 3) Donors make a huge profit. 4) Repeat. For the sake of democracy, we must get Big Money out of politics.

We have the list. The list is coming.There is no list. The list is a hoax created by the Democrats. Why didn’t Biden release the list? I’m not on the list. Bill Clinton is on the list. I’m going to show you names on the list. How fucking stupid do you have to be to believe a word of this shit?

They of course don't need to ask Ghislaine Maxwell anything. They already know who was involved. This is a transparent cover-up in exchange for a pardon. It is the biggest scandal in presidential history.

While the Department of Justice is meeting in secret with Ghislaine Maxwell to coach her on testimony, it is hiding from us three discs containing court-authorized recordings of her phone calls. [Source: ABC News] That is the REAL evidence. And this is a cover-up.

And ask Acosta why he just got a streaming deal with Trump media and a job on the board at Newsmax just three months ago.

Not sure this would work but there’s no reason they can’t try.

when RFK says he wants to “end chronic disease,” what people hear is “he wants to cure us” but what he means is “i want to cull the weak”

Darren Beattie, fired from the Trump White House in 2018 after it was revealed he attended a white supremacist conference, has just been appointed acting president of the U.S. Institute of Peace, according to the State Department.

It’s pretty obvious they’re going to use Maxwell to absolve Trump so it would be wise for Democrats to get out there and remind everyone — she wasn’t a victim and she wasn’t merely an accomplice in luring girls into Epstein’s trap; she was also allegedly an active participant in these girls’ abuse.

This is excellent. In three minutes she explains how democracies become dictatorships. It's happened so many times, yet in each country, most people said, 'it can't happen here'

Todd Blanche is committing the exact same ethical lapse that Alex Acosta did with the original get out of jail free plea for Jeffrey Epstein: discussing a deal without first reaching out to victims. Blanche is meeting with the sex trafficker today. abcnews.go.com/Politics/ghi...

Dear @senatedemocrats.bsky.social DENY THE GOP A QUORUM IN SEPT! No CR unless the GOP stops gerrymandering and agrees to NO vote on the SAVE act, and agrees to NO RESCISSION! FIGHT LIKE HELL DAMMIT!! Fight!!

AOC Blasts One of Several Supremely Corrupt InJustices......

Incredible. Federal prosecutors are seeing many cases of people accused of assaulting Border Patrol agents being turned down by grand juries! Los Angeles federal prosecutors are privately saying it’s because CBP agents are just “arresting first and asking questions later.”
