I can’t believe they are putting Donald Trump on every passport.

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.

Southern Poverty Law Center: “We will not stand for this perversion and misuse of the criminal legal system and will continue to expose hate and defend civil rights as we always have - no matter who tries to stop us.” Go SPLC! 🔥

“How lucky is the United States that everytime they look for democracy in other countries they find oil instead”- Spain Deputy Gabriel Rufián

Another beautiful Easter message from the President who loves Jesus with all his heart and soul.

may this define her for the rest of her life. she was willing to stoop this low and still got fired. girl, bye.

Not the first time Melania has had to drop her price.

Reporter: Why didn't you tell allies about the war before attacking Iran? Trump: We wanted it to be a surprise. Who knows better about surprise than Japan? Why didn't you tell me about Pearl Harbor?

What a joke. FBI agents are not street brawlers. They interview witnesses, uncover documents, analyze intelligence, and testify in court, usually while wearing a suit and tie. Just one more frolic for Kash at taxpayer expense. variety.com/2026/politic...

Some of the frivolous September purchases made under Secretary Pete Hegseth’s stewardship include a $98,329 Steinway & Sons grand piano for the Air Force chief of staff’s home, $5.3 million for Apple devices such as the new iPad, and an astronomical amount of … newrepublic.com/post/207555/...

Reuters confirmed that the elementary school in the Iranian city of Minab was bombed TWICE by the US military, 40 minutes apart. This was intentional. They did not "accidentally" drop two bombs 40 mins apart, Killing 168 children and 14 teachers.

Obama: "We are living in a time where it can be hard to hope. Each day we wake up to some new assault on our democratic institutions. Another setback to the idea of the rule of law ... but this man - Rev. Jesse Jackson - inspires us to take a harder path ... bc if we don't step up, nobody else will"

Moskowitz: I want to end on a happy note. I got you a new Coast Guard blankie, the one you lost.

Trump: "See that nice drape? When that comes down right now you see a very very deep hole, but in about a year and half you're gonna see a very very beautiful building. In fact, it looks so nice I think I'll leave it and save money on the doors. I believe it will be the most beautiful ballroom."

When you start an illegal war to distract from the other illegal things you've done.

LOL!

🚨BREAKING: Supreme Court says Trump's global tariffs are illegal

This is what being contained by your own morality looks like.

BREAKING: The Epstein survivors are releasing this ad on this Super Bowl Sunday to send the message that they will not “move on” from the largest sex trafficking scandal in the world. #standwithsurvivors

Trump had the means, MOTIVE and opportunity. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

Just a fundamentally evil, malevolent person. Rotten to the very core.

“I watched him die… then I watched them maneuver his body like a rag doll— only to discover it was because they wanted to count the bullet wounds and see how many they ‘got’, like he was a deer.”

They counted the bullet holes instead of performing CPR

The first US sale of Venezuelan crude was to a company whose senior oil trader donated to Donald Trump’s re-election campaign and attended a White House meeting with the president last week. www.ft.com/content/da74...

This is powerful.

Isn't it odd that the United States has enough money to suddenly run Venezuela, but not enough to run our own country? There is always cash in the piggy bank for bombs to kill people, but never for healthcare to keep them alive.

I suspect two of the hot words for 2026 will be “impeach” and “remove”

With all this talk of how to end Russias war against Ukraine, and a cease fire, keep this in mind: If Ukraine ceases firing, Ukraine will cease to exist. If Russia ceases firing. the war will cease to exist. Pretty clear

Anyone paying even the slightest bit of attention could see that was happening.

Putin & Trump should be locked up!

From my backyard!

The DOJ released thousands of numerically labeled Epstein files yesterday. In one file was a photo of Trump with young girls. As of this morning, that file EFTA00000468 is now missing from the DOJ website. They deleted it. #CoverUp

The White House has been caught. The administration inserted a photo of Bill Clinton, Michael Jackson, and Diana Ross into the Epstein files and falsely implied it showed them with victims. In reality, it’s a publicly available fundraiser photo featuring Jackson and Ross’s own children.

BREAKING: The House of Representatives just passed a bill that would subject immigrant children to invasive bodily searches and keep them in detention instead of releasing them to their families. The Senate must vote no on this horrific bill.

LOLOLOLOL hahahahahahaha

Trump has escalated his attacks on Democratic Rep. Ilhan Omar to a disturbing new level. Yesterday, federal immigration agents pulled over her son and demanded proof of his citizenship.

Marty

The US government is now a mafia organization.
