Carefully read, this says specifically that lethality is a goal of the mission. There’s a dock at The Hague with Pete’s name on it.

Everyone knows Trump is abusing every power his office wields. Still, the vastness is shocking.

A lot of snark in the comments, and I would never vote for this person, but I admire her plain spoken courage here. More Republicans need to be honest like this.

🔴 Scolding a U.S. reporter for asking questions about MBS ordering a fellow journalist to be bonesawed to death signals to dictators everywhere that they can murder journalists with impunity. Read our full statement below:

You can’t just pick out the email where the convicted pedo calls him dirty Donald and the one where Epstein says Donald was in the room with a victim for hours and the one where he says Donald knew about the pedophilia and the one about Donald and teens in bikinis, you’ll give people the wrong idea

Still can’t believe the pass Trump got when he denied knowing about Project 2025. The obvious, never-asked follow up: “Shouldn’t you know more about an enormous proposal that half your staff is developing?”

The shameless GOP lying about the No Kings gatherings scheduled for next Saturday reveals how deeply hostile much of the Republican Party is to “the right of the people peaceably to assemble.” I look forward to our local No Kings event, and urge my fellow Americans to attend in their communities.

I think people are misinterpreting this wonky headline. The bombshell story CBS is reporting is that the Epstein jail tape the public got IS missing time and the FULL video exists. The FBI and DOJ have it. So when Bondi said the missing minute is normal, she lied.

There was no "missing minute" in the original Epstein jail video, government source says
FBI officials promised raw, unaltered video to quell speculation about Epstein's suicide.
