Words are magic

Bravo to ALL of the brave women speaking out today. #ReleasetheEpsteinFiles

So after the Epstein survivors themselves said this matter wasn't a hoax and told their stories, the President told them they were lying. That's the headline every reputable media outlet should be running.

Man, they REALLY don’t want to hang that plaque honoring the police officers who defended the Capitol on Jan 6. @acyn.bsky.social

He canceled her Secret Service protection to stop her book tour. What a fragile, little, rotting mango.

Good night, friends. ⭐️

I’m so impressed by the survivors and I’m behind their efforts to get validation, conviction for those involved ! Enough is enough! #jeffreyEpstein

More of this.

Wow — check out the INCREDIBLY MASSIVE crowd at this morning’s Massie/Khanna press conference with the victims of sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein!! 👀

“Rather than defending civil liberties and civil protections, you’re turned inward to potentially hinder [them].” In June, we sat down with a veteran and military law expert to discuss “being used against your neighbor” as a soldier.

BREAKING: Epstein victms are holding a press conference saying they will release all the names. All networks covering except Fox News.

Epstein survivor Marina Lacerda: "The worst part is that the government is still in possession right now of documents & information that could help me remember and get over all of this maybe, and help me heal. They have documents w/ my name on them that were confiscated from Jeffrey Epstein's house"

When Jerry Nadler announced his retirement, he opted to directly address a question that’s been roiling the Democratic Party: How old is too old to run for office?

Massie: I'm calling on my colleagues: be one of the next two who sponsors this discharge petition. I think it's shameful that this has been called a hoax. Hopefully today we can clear that up. This is not a hoax. This is real. There are real survivors.

“Why did the government work so hard to protect Jeffrey Epstein and not victims like me?” Epstein survivor

Here's a ray of sunshine in a very dark world Germany has already exceeded its goal of shutting down 8 GW of coal plants - 3 years earlier than expected Amazing what a little sun and wind can do 😎 www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

De Georgiou: And to be clear, the only motive for opposing this bill would be to conceal wrongdoing. You have a choice: stand with the truth or with the lies that have protected predators for decades.

The democratic governors of Oregon, Washington and California are forming a new public health partnership aimed at preserving access to vaccines.

Saw this in Canada. Applies anywhere. Companies who make robots don’t pay taxes either. Bad for humans and the economy.

It's not normal for an American president to send troops to American cities in times of peace. Chicago, document what you see and be loud for America.

One detail an Epstein survivor noted in today's presser: DOJ did not inform Ghislaine Maxwell's victims she was being moved to cozier digs.

There is no moral justification for today’s extraordinary concentration of wealth. It is distorting politics, rigging markets, and granting unprecedented power to a handful of people. Closing our staggering wealth gap is crucial to the survival of our economy and our democracy.

Which one should I munch on, the blue or red snack? 😋 A Southern Right Whale, estimated to be around 18 meters long and weighing 80 tons, caught on camera. Stunning. These whales are relatively harmless and they are known to interact with humans. Amazing creatures. #southernrightwhale #sealife

AOC: Millionaires are very overrepresented in congress… If we want a congress that reflects the actual country we seek to represent and fight for, we need to have working class people who work here

I wish somebody would ask him to specifically list the "seven" or however many wars he claims to have ended and then hand him a map and ask him to show us on it where the wars were.

Great news! The Baltimore Museum of Art is taking “Amy Sherald: American Sublime,” which was originally scheduled to take place at the National Portrait Gallery. artbma.org/exhibition/a...

The president is using the military to dismantle cities that didn't vote for him The president is using the military to distract from women speaking out against his and Jeffrey Epstein's sexual abuses. We are not living in ordinary times. Extraordinary responses are called for.

Good morning to you 🌞 from the Southern Coast on the

Your periodic reminder that mRNA vaccines are a scientific and public health game-changer. Those that have been approved have passed stringent efficacy and safety checks. They protect you and your child against potentially fatal diseases. You may, however, get a sore arm.

Epstein survivors say they’re compiling their own client list. “We know who abused us. We saw who came and went. This list will be survivor-led—for survivors”

…

This hits harder than when I saw this movie the first time. #CaptainAmerica

We lost one of the greats. Graham Greene was not only an actor but a trail blazer. He opened doors for so many of us Natives. I'm proud to say that the very first pilot I ever acted in was with Graham Greene. The pilot was never picked up but I get to say that I got to work with one of the greats.

"Stay tuned for more details" -- Epstein survivor announces that survivors are creating their own list of Epstein-related abusers

RFK Jr. will face "hard questions" over CDC shakeup, according to Thune. The Senate majority leader expressed frustration over the firings of recently confirmed officials.

AOC: If anybody says “this isn’t fair, I'm gonna have to divest all my stocks if I run for congress” maybe you should stay home.

I called everyone in Jeffrey Epstein's little black book. Here's what I learned about rich people, conspiracy, “genius,” Ghislaine, stand-up comedy, and evil from the 2,000 phone calls.

This is beyond stupid.

my view is that everyone should be able to earn a living wage doing whatever it is they like. if you love working in a bookshop, you should be able to live a comfortable life doing so. if you loving being a barista, the same. and if you want to do more traditional blue collar work, that’s cool too!

time to put granny in the fields and deploy the agricultural robots that don't exist and aren't being developed after we gutted science funding

GUARDIAN: “Before his Grecian holiday, Cruz ensured a reduction in funding to the NOAA efforts to improve future weather forecasting of events that cause the sort of extreme floods that are being worsened by the human-caused climate crisis.” www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

I don't mean to sound hysterical but there are some pretty clear historical examples of "force the urban-dwellers to the farms," and none of them are great.
