As more files from the Epstein case are released, I'm sickened by the extent of his depravity and his connections to so many powerful people. Governments around the globe are being shaken by the mentions of their leaders in the files, and the U.S. should apply the same scrutiny to our leaders.

It has been reported that Donald Trump's name appears in the Epstein files 38,000 times. That is a lie. Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-Md.) has said that when he searched for Trump in the unredacted files, Trump’s name came up “more than a million times.” We should be calling them “The Trump Files.”

We're seeing unprecedented corruption from the Trump family, plus destructive ICE policies and other abuses. It's hard to keep up with everything. Subscribe to my YouTube page to stay informed on the stories driving our democracy. youtube.com/@Adam_Kinzinger

Magaziner: Mayorkas testified in front of Congress like 30 times. Noem has only been in front of our committee twice, and one of the times, she left because she didn't want to answer questions. It's going to be very different when we are in the majority next year.

Goldman to Lyons: "You said in your opening statement that references to ICE as 'the Gestapo' or 'secret police' encourages threats against ICE agents. The problem is you have it backwards. People are simply making valid observations about your tactics, which are un-American and outright fascist."

Magaziner: They can say nothing because it's really Stephen Miller and Kristi who are calling the shots… PabloReports: Is there a way to compel Stephen Miller to testify? Magaziner: When we're in the majority, we absolutely will

Rep. Walkinshaw leaving today’s ICE hearing: “All of this comes from Stephen Miller’s sick, twisted, deranged Great Replacement Theory.” He says when Dems have the majority they will subpoena Miller to testify: “If he doesn’t he will end up in prison for contempt.” @pabloreports.bsky.social

Textbook. If you are surprised, it is because this shit usually, at least not in the last 150 years, does not happen in the US. And the past is mild in comparison

YES!

Rep. Lieu: “Howard Lutnick must resign… The Epstein Files new release shows that not only did Howard Lutnick lie to the American people, he went into business with Jeffrey Epstein, he visited Epstein Island, and Howard Lutnick did this knowing how evil Epstein was.”

AOC on DHS Warehouses: I think every American should be alarmed. They are building—and have built—a black box system that disappears people, both immigrants and U.S. citizens alike.

After more unredacted Epstein files have came out. World leaders are calling for people to step down and to be prosecute. Our leaders have done nothing. www.youtube.com/live/Deh5tR1...

@rokhanna.bsky.social: I was in Ghislaine Maxwell’s deposition today. It was shameful. She basically said other powerful people committed these crimes but she won’t name them unless she’s granted clemency. She needs to be sent back to a maximum security prison immediately.

Hunter Biden must be kicking himself for leaving so much money on the table

Khanna: "Here we have a sitting cabinet member, Lutnick, who's all over the files as having a business relationship allegedly and personal relationship alleged after Epstein was convicted. He's allegedly lied about his relationship. And there's no consequence. We need to get real in this country."

Kudos! Renews my appreciation for the folks out here trying to use their superpowers for good. Now, off to find a different bookseller in honor of the February Ice Boycott #ResistAndUnsubscribe

In an email to Michael Wolff while Wolff was writing an unflattering exposé on the Trump administration, Jeffrey Epstein states that people who had dinner with Trump were concerned about his dementia. He was wearing too much makeup and didn’t recognize old friends. THIS WAS ALMOST TEN YEARS AGO.

Ghislaine Maxwell's attorney has gone public with her offer to "clear" Donald Trump in exchange for a pardon. So if Donald gives her one, that would be an admission that she has information about him that could lead to criminal convictions. Stupid of the lawyer to say the quiet part out loud.

Republican Congressman Thomas Massie has been a leader in the efforts to release the Epstein files. He went on CNN on Sunday to discuss. He posted, “Why didn’t I go on Fox News? Because they are ignoring the Epstein files.” 👏

Europeans in the Epstein Files are being investigated by their governments. Americans in the Epstein Files ARE the government. See the problem?

Jamie Raskin said he reviewed an email sent from Epstein to co-conspirator Ghislaine Maxwell that was a forwarded conversation between Epstein’s lawyers and lawyers for Donald Trump. The DOJ (illegally) redacted Trump's name in the public files. What else are they hiding?

Rep. Raskin: “I think that the DOJ has been in a cover-up mode for many months and has been trying to sweep the entire thing under the rug…There's no way you run a billion-dollar international child sex trafficking ring with just two people committing crimes.”

‼️‼️

This administration is protecting monsters.

Wow, someone really did not think this through. "I can 'exonerate' you for a price"—made as a public offer—is essentially an acknowledgment that the person being offered the bribe is in fact... ...a criminal who did exactly what they have been accused of.

Pardoned insurrectionists commit crimes at a higher rate than immigrants.

CNN: “Maxwell can clear Trump’s name in exchange for clemency, attorney says” 🤔 Translation: they think we are all idiots

Secretary Howard Lutnick lied to the country about his ties to Epstein. Now we learned that they were in business together. He has no business being our Commerce Secretary. He should resign. www.politico.com/live-updates...

Emerging from his viewing of the UNRELEASED Epstein case files at Justice Dept, Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-MD) says: "The Dept of Justice has been in a cover-up mode for months... trying to sweep the entire thing under the rug"

For an attorney to resort to extortion to clear his client isn't ideal. For an attorney to undertake that extortion expressly and in a public is incredibly stupid.

Crockett: "The US is falling apart, partially bc he's allowing for killings in the street, but also bc we have a 34 count convicted felon being shielded from any type of accountability as it relates to a child sex trafficking ring. I don't understand why we're pretending any of this is normal."

There are a growing number of reports of agents impersonating construction workers, delivery drivers & anti-ICE activists, heightening fears in the state. That's deceptive & unconstitutional, because they use trickery to get around warrant & consent protections.

There is no place for ICE at the Superbowl, no place for ICE in California, no place for ICE anywhere in these United States. Remember, the power of the people is stronger than the people in power. March 28th will be the largest peaceful protest in history. We will take our democracy back.

it will really be something if the Epstein Files unseat a British Prime Minster who isn't in them, and not the American President who was Epstein's best friend.

WHY has no one in the Epstein Files been charged? Epstein and his girlfriend, and literally no one else. DOJ has spent more time and resources protecting the criminals than investigating them. Even as a blanket cover-up it doesn't make sense.

Fact , Trump has made more money this year as president than he has his entire life. And technically , he should not be making a dime. Other than his presidential salary.
