Someone should release the Epstein files at 8pm est tonight.

In all seriousness, one thing that might be worth doing today: Tell your Reps and Senators to call Adm. Richard Correll, the Commander of U.S. Strategic Command, which controls the nation's nukes, and remind him of *his* unique responsibility to refuse an illegal order.

America has been taken hostage by a rambling old rapist I now understand why militaries in other countries step in and take over when madmen usurp power and destroy the lives of hundreds of millions

‼️ EricKeller2 has built a website & database of more than 1.5 million files related to the Epstein case. A giant interactive network graph that shows the connections between 1,000 plus people in Epstein’s social world through flight manifests, email exchanges and other documents that connect them. 🧵

“…*RUMP IS LYING. I SERVE ON THE INTELLIGENCE AND ARMED SERVICES COMMITTEES. THERE'S NO INTELLIGENCE THAT IRAN POSED AN IMMINENT THREAT TO THE U.S. OR THE AMERICAN PEOPLE." - CONGRESSMAN JASON CROW

Ted Lieu: “Undocumented immigrants voting in elections is an infinitesimal problem — to vote, you have to first register — how many undocumented are going to go, ‘yes, I'm going to give all my info to the govt that's trying to maybe deport me.’ No way — so this is a problem that doesn't even exist”

wow! Rand Paul begins Markwayne Mullin's hearing by confronting him about comments he made describing Paul as a "freakin' snake" & "celebrating" Paul getting assaulted "I wonder if someone who applauds political violence is right to lead an agency that has struggled to accept proper use of force"

If the bar was already on the floor after Kristi Noem, Markwayne Mullin came with a shovel. This isn’t an upgrade. 📌No national security leadership experience 📌No record running a massive federal agency 📌Plenty of cable news tough talk though Confirmation hearings start today.

“The U.S. has intercepted encrypted communications believed to have originated in Iran that may serve as "an operational trigger" for "sleeper assets" according to alert sent to law enforcement agencies.” I was called an alarmist when I mentioned sleeper cells. 🤷‍♂️ abcnews.com/US/iran-acti...

Not trying to be hyperbolic, I fear we are on the cusp of a 9/11 type catastrophe that this regime is unwilling and unable to protect us from.

NBC’s Richard Engel: “The White House meme campaign is outraging many former US military commanders… they say only someone who has never really seen combat would think it’s a joke and put out material like this.”

Why was this story on the front page of the UK’s Daily Telegraph — but NOT America’s leading newspapers?

Pres. Obama at the Jackson service: "We are living in a time when it can be hard to hope. Each day, we wake up to some new assault on our democratic institutions." "If we don't step up, no one else will. How fortunate we were that Jesse Jackson answered that call. What a great debt we owe to him."

I am frankly more concerned about the apathy of the American public and even more importantly the lack of leadership in the Democratic Party. This is not a dress rehearsal. Every single American must speak out against this Facist administration.

The Pentagon confirmed there was NO sign that Iran was going to attack the U.S. No imminent threat. No authorization from Congress. No reason our service members should be dead. And no exit plan or strategy. This war on Iran is a reckless and deadly mistake by this regime.

Maj. Gen. Randy Manner (Ret.): "It's a little bit disheartening to hear that the UK govt is arranging transport for the British citizens, whereas here as Americans we feel abandoned. The State Dept is in survival mode because as we know the administration reduced their budget by almost half."

NEW: The Department of Justice will soon abandon its defense of President Donald Trump’s retribution campaign against law firms that challenged his political agenda or represented his political opponents over the years, according to the Wall Street Journal. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

Just like Venezuela does not send fentanyl to the U.S. and Iraq did not have weapons of mass destruction. It’s all been false flags to justify military aggression and war.

BREAKING: A 4th U.S. service member has been killed in the military operation with Iran. I want you all to remember that we had a way to stop iran from getting nuclear weapons. It was a nuclear agreement that the international community all agreed was working.

The morally bankrupt Trump administration has partnered with another morally bankrupt authoritarian to declare an unprovoked war on Iran, already killing scores of civilians. We need an immediate vote from Congress on a War Powers Resolution. Then articles of impeachment.

“.. We could spend the whole day reacting to every buffoonish spectacle coming out of the White House, but that's exactly what they want: for us to lose focus … Don't be distracted by the noise; watch what they are doing to your rights while you stare at the screen.”

I spent my childhood inside of American concentration camps. I know one when I see one. And that is what ICE is building.

We are the laughing stock of the world.

Reuters: New Mexico lawmakers on Monday passed legislation to launch what they said was the first full investigation into what happened at Zorro Ranch, where the late U.S. sex offender Jeffrey Epstein is accused of trafficking and sexually assaulting girls and women.

Stephen Colbert says he was told by CBS lawyers "in no uncertain terms" that he could not have Texas State Rep. James Talarico on his program. "Because my network clearly doesn't want us to talk about this, let's talk about this."

The Virginia Supreme Court has ruled that the state can put a redistricting plan on the ballot this spring that could add as many as four more Democratic seats in Congress. The referendum will take place on April 21.

Absolutely packed house for the ICE out training in East Kensington tonight, put on by @riverwardsdems.bsky.social. I’ll share out things I learn here.

This should piss everyone off, and our tax dollars paid for this. A massive building purchased by ICE for $70 million in Arizona to “warehouse” immigrants. Calling this “housing” is a lie. This is storage. This is treating human beings like inventory.

Breaking MS NOW: The Trump admin is now eyeing Ohio for immigration enforcement operations that could begin as early as next week. The operation is expected to target Haitian immigrants — with temporary protected status for Haiti expiring on Feb. 3.

Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche admits that the DOJ excluded all images showing “death, physical abuse, or injury” from yesterday’s Epstein files release. WHAT ELSE ARE THEY HIDING???

If Americans were really serious about fighting back against corporate America, they would boycott the Super Bowl. Unfortunately, a good number of people in this country aren’t willing to make that small sacrifice and it’s sad and infuriating.

DHS should be embarrassed that their ICE agent hires are so soft they can’t handle being videotaped, even while masked, so they resort to pepper spraying women at close range. And we should be proud of the Santa Barbara women who stood their ground anyway.

States are coming together to bring state charges against ICE agents. It's about freaking time! www.nbcphiladelphia.com/news/local/p...

The tide is turning. Which means now is the time to push harder than ever. Tell your Representatives we want Noem GONE! #ICEOffOurStreets
