Wow! This is some top-notch investigative journalism. The report claims the 3 million Epstein files released are only 2% of the total. The massive scale of whatās still missing is hard to comprehend.

Medicare for All would save $450B a year. Every dollar spent on food stamps generates $1.50-$1.80 in economic activity. Each dollar going to low-wage workers adds $1.20 to the economy overall. Itās not about what this country can or canāt afford. Itās about priorities.

I know you've heard that a federal judge ordered the release of 5 year old Liam Conejo Arias and his father, and that they're now home. But did you look at the judge's order? It's less than 2.5 pages and well worth a minute. "Jesus wept." Link to pdf:

Letās make one thing clear from the start: Charlie Kirk was the victim of a shooting in a country where he, along with other right-wing extremist influencers, have been inciting violence for years. ā Kirk is neither a martyr nor a hero, he is a cause.

That any of us have to care about the messy breakup of these two massive narcissists ā and that they both individually wield such massive power ā is an indictment of our political system and further proves the poisonous influence of Big Money on our democracy.
