None of the Epstein/Maxwell survivors were notified of Maxwell’s transfer to the minimum security facility.

Starmer is thinking what we are thinking and what most of the world is thinking.

Welcome to America; where our president is publicly saying nice things about, giving immunity to, and suggesting a possible pardon for a well-connected child sex trafficker. But I’m sure he’s got a good reason.

This story I wrote about DOGE is imo an example of how journalism (and court records) can be used to “prove” something that’s an open secret. When it published, people were like “but we already knew that.” Ok, that wasn’t the point! The point was proving it. www.lawfaremedia.org/article/on-d...

Holy shit, Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell corrected the orange felon’s lies on live television without hesitation. This is how you do it.

Just remember...there was absolutely nothing normal about the United States Deputy Attorney General, Todd Blanche, meeting with Ghislaine Maxwell. Nothing. Not by protocol. Not by precedent. Not by any stretch of the imagination.

As I just said on CNN, my father's parents were Nakba survivors. I don't want Israeli children to live in fear and I don't want Palestinian children to starve to death. There is nothing anyone could do to make me put nationalistic talking points above basic human rights.

We stand with Stephen Colbert.

Here's me literally doing exactly that. #StandingWithStephenColbert

People are being rounded up and crammed into a hastily constructed camp of plastic tents and cages. They are being forced to endure unlivable conditions, all because they weren’t born in this country. Most have no criminal records. All of them deserve a right to a hearing and to due process of law.

When I was little, the U.S. military came to our home at gunpoint and took me and my family away. We were imprisoned for years in barbed wire camps simply because we were Japanese American. I have spent my life telling that story, hoping it would never be repeated.

Normally, "You're Fired" means you have instantly lost your job, not: You WILL lose your job IN TEN MONTHS. #MakeItMakeSense

It's become clear that this administration is just a protracted war on anybody who's read a book without pictures in it. It's a miracle we're all still getting up and going to work every morning. The psychological drain is the point, and I'm increasingly grateful to the people who are still decent.

They did mention it might not be legitimate and would go to the Parliamentarian. At this point, I don’t care if they can’t stop it. Just make it as long, drawn out and painful as possible and make Republicans take full responsibility. For everything.

Rather than participate in the travesty, the Dems walked out of the Bove vote, which therefore was officially 12-0. Really a day that should live in infamy -- a result of so many different acts of corruption and malfeasance.

New Japanese restaurant opened near us and this was my dessert

We don’t deserve them. 👁️❤️🐶s

Pam Bondi can end the speculation and chaos. She should release the Epstein files now.

They can be impeached. And, should Bove be confirmed — which he should not be — he should immediately be the subject of an impeachment inquiry should Dems retake Congress. He should not be a federal judge due to his actions at DOJ. That does not change if he is confirmed.

First they came for Rosie O'Donnell, And I did not speak out, Because I thought it was a headline from The Onion.

😬

The thing about the Epstein disgustingness that strikes me hardest is that hundreds of rich old men raped underage girls and the only person currently in jail for that vile behavior is a woman.

If Department of Homeland Security (DHS) officials can brief an election-denier group on how states are now using its databases to verify voters’ citizenship, then they can brief Congress, a trio of Democratic senators wrote to DHS Sec. Kristi Noem Tuesday. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

I was explaining to my Ukrainian colleague the phrase ‘There’s no such thing as a free lunch’. She told me the equivalent in Ukrainian is ‘The only free cheese is in the mousetrap’ - which is so much better

“Americans as of Sunday faced a 20.6% average effective tariff rate, … the highest since 1910.  The full effect of the tariffs might not be felt for months …. But the … resulting price increases could amount to the equivalent of a $2,800 hit in yearly household income.” apple.news/A2Y_GzgvCSl2...

Almost all of us are the descendants of immigrants who fled persecution, or were brought to America under duress, or sought better lives for themselves and their descendants. Politicians who stoke fear and hatred over immigration want you to forget this. Do not.

Secret judge in a secret court listening to secret lawyers over (mostly) misdemeanor charges Perfectly normal in a well functioning representative democracy.

So grateful for the clear, unequivocal witness and voice of Rep. @maxwellfrost.bsky.social who visited the horrifying detention camp in Florida. As he said, “I didn’t see any Russians who’ve overstayed their visas. Only Black & Latino men who look like me.” @maddow.msnbc.com

Tech bros don’t want to save the world. They want to own it, brand it, license it, and charge you a monthly fee to visit.

Tomi Lahren just posted on the other place that the federal government should “let California go” and that California should get “not one dime.” Where does she think the federal government gets most of its dimes?

He said he was deporting gang members, but he also said he would the number would be 11 million people. That's almost twice the population of Missouri. Did Trumpers think there were 11 million gang members in the country? Is math that hard? Jesus Christ.

someone get this man a booster chair or something

They’re finally using the GOP playbook!!!

The president has been ratioed on his own social media platform. MAGA is pissed. We need to keep hammering on this. @democrats.senate.gov @democrats-judiciary.house.gov @democrats.org

Trump does NOT have a mandate to shred our institutions. His margin of victory (pop vote + electoral college) is the third smallest since 1888. (Only JFK in '60 and Nixon in '68 were smaller.) If 238k votes in the blue wall states had been different, he would have lost. 49.8% vs 48.3% NOT a mandate.

Moving scene - tears, hugs, and cheers - inside the State Dept HQ last night, as diplomats gathered in the lobby to clap out their laid off colleagues, some of which have served for decades 👇🏻

Ossoff: Did anyone really think the sexual predator president who used to party with Jeffrey Epstein was going to release the Epstein files?

Anything to distract from the Epstein Files. #EmbarrassmentInChief

We intentionally did not put Rosie in the headline because this is not about Rosie O’Donnell it’s about everyone

"The Constitution, of course, grants Congress no express power to strip people of their citizenship, whether, in the exercise of the implied power to regulate foreign affairs or in the exercise of any specifically granted power." - Afroyim v. Rusk, 387 U.S. 253 (1967).

Trump wants to strip Rosie O’Donnell of her citizenship… for hurting his feelings. 😂 MAGA - have you seen enough, yet? For the record: The U.S. president cannot unilaterally strip a natural-born citizen of their citizenship. This isn’t a monarchy, no matter how badly Trump wants a crown.👇

I think you should be able to say things the president doesn’t like and still be a citizen. Maybe we should write that down somewhere.

Ontario, CA surgical center staff stand up and demand to see ICE warrants.

Dozens of people died in the Texas floods because of DOGE restrictions and Kristi Noem's incompetence. Here's why that's bad news for Democrats.
