It's three weeks after the deadline to release the Epstein files.

The crucial question is was the scenario even necessary? Trump has done a piss poor job at everything, including deporting immigrants. All presidents before him have deported millions more, didn’t kill people and didn’t spend nearly as much money. This is an unequivocal failure.

“New technologies will come along to save the environment.” What they said versus where we are: From the new Private Eye, in shops now.

Amanda Gorman wrote this poem for Renee Good and that’s it for me tonight.

What's happening with the release of the Epstein files? There's still over a million more that should've been released on 12/19/25. #BelieveWomen #EpsteinFiles #FDT

There is no legal justification, whatsoever, to use military force against a NATO ally like Greenland. If any military member participates in this without congressional authorization, they are following illegal orders.

"Iron laws of the world"? Some of America's most important national accomplishments are about leading humanity away from this kind of bullshit. If we let ideologues like Stephen Miller drag us back into a world where brute force is all that matters, all of us will be less safe.

Five years later, January 6 still matters. Not just because of what happened—but because of what happens if we decide we’ve already heard enough. open.substack.com/pub/adamkinz...

WTF?

The Epstein Files Transparency Act is a law, passed by Congress on November 19 with an overwhelming vote. Complying with it was not optional. The Department of Justice did not comply. I want to make sure this is very clear.

#USA is not at war with #Venezuela unless and until it is authorized by an act of Congress. Until then, it is an unconstitutional action of 47 involving the DoD in an illegal move in Venezuela. The people of USA have not authorized a war. Far from it. Repost!

Rubio is claiming that they did not need Congress permission because it was a law enforcement mission. The US is behaving as a global police state, extending its own arbitrary legal decisions to the whole world. This is not a problem just for Venezuela.

What the United States did in Venezuela is prohibited under international law, which bars the use of force as an instrument of national policy.

This is why they want us talking about day care centers and $500 boots.

America, how long? How long are we going to tolerate an insane leader, a compromised Congress and a corrupt Supreme Court? How long?

-A living wage -Guaranteed healthcare -The right to join a union -The right to vote -The right to choose when, how, and with whom you start a family -The right for you and your family to live free from gun violence These are the foundations of real freedom.

Who agrees? ✋

In thinking about what you can do this year, keep this in mind: showing up at protests has real impact - - www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

In case you need a positive reminder: How effective is protesting? According to historians and political scientists: very www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

Shout-out to all our Canada fam for the "60 Minutes" bootlegs.

It's 2025, and we're sharing bootleg 60 Minutes segments broadcast in other countries because our own country is being run by fascists and their billionaire-owned state media helpers, just as the Founding Fathers intended, of course.

😕🇺🇸

I don’t mean to sound extreme, but I don’t think we should have torture camps for people with criminal records either.

It’s not “released” if it can’t be read. #gmafb 🤣

Epstein files The trove of completely blacked out pages with some gratuitous photos of celebrities thrown in that were from a large fundraiser (not an Epstein party) DOJ hasn't come close to compliance but has pulled off a massive obstruction of justice

We now have a bipartisan majority of members of Congress demanding a vote to extend ACA tax credits and keep health care affordable for all Americans. Speaker Johnson, bring this legislation to the House Floor immediately or step out of the way.

WHERE ARE THE DAMN UNREDACTED EPSTEIN FILES? RELEASE THEM! NOW!!

Mike Johnson, whose claim to fame is a ridiculous selfie with Kid Rock, is furious that we’re pushing to force a vote on extending tax credits. You know what to do:

Donald Trump should keep his reckless mouth shut.

"It was not Hitler or Himmler who abducted me, beat me and shot my family. It was the shoemaker, the milkman, the neighbor, who received a uniform and then believed they were the master race." - Karl Stojka, Auschwitz survivor

You would think that the 8 GOP Senators who are SO OUTRAGED that Jack Smith subpoenaed their phone records that they want $1 million compensation would bring him in to testify IN A PUBLIC HEARING to explain why he did this. But no, they don’t want to do that. I wonder why?

Exactly

All of this. Every word. Read it! “The fight ahead is existential. The oligarchs aren’t going to stop because we ask nicely. The authoritarians aren’t going to respect norms they’ve explicitly rejected. The establishment isn’t going to fight power because fighting costs more than managing.”

Went to repost this and then depressingly saw it was from 8 months ago. This is still true, and I am now convinced it will remain true until there are successful primary challenges nationwide to the "roll over and play dead" Dems.

Autographs are official presidential duties now?
