/2 Jeffrey Epstein had a greater ability to continue to rape children and facilitate their rape because he was not treated as a pariah. It allowed him to continue to move in elite circles. It gave him contacts and support. It gave him access to people who wanted to be provided with children to rape.

Trump won this district by 17 points in 2024

This feels very much like the last embers of democracy. An Army vet arrested for having an opinion.

1/ Ian Austin has since been re-arrested along with Don Lemon, which he believes is bc the video we made of him (below) criticizing the Trump regime and encouraging fellow vets to wake up had gotten millions of views. It's not just journalists. It's ANYONE. www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

LOVE THIS!!

JD Vance in 2021:

3 more years of this and the DOJ is going to be staffed by Nick Fuentes fans with correspondence school law degrees. Who don't need to pass the bar because of "the emergency."

Leather? Pshaw. If you aren’t hauling around a sign made of Calacatta marble, you need to renegotiate with Soros.

We're going to need the kind of mutual aid that Minnesotans have been demonstrating everywhere: www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

While we all consider whom is throwing the skeeball under the bus, let's think about the man who got us here. I spoke to Michael Edison Hayden about the emails that should have ended Stephen Miller's career.

This shit is really hard to read. Girls crying hysterically during interviews as they tell PBPD that Epstein had molested them over and over and over again. 2005. He was 51-52 at the time. It is all monstrous. And Trump was still his best friend.

Children. Kids. It is impossible to read this stuff without it utterly breaking your heart. And all these grown adults, elected & appointed, so many moments intervention could have helped, straight through from then until now, have done nothing but let these 1000+ little girls suffer for decades.

I guess this didn't make it into the documentary.

Oooo this is a tough choice.

NEW: As he released 5-year-old Liam Conejo Ramos, Judge Biery warned of vast lawlessness and inhumanity in the Trump administration’s mass deportation efforts. He said courts amounted to “a judicial finger in the dike.” www.politico.com/news/2026/01...

The post-Me Too era has really taught me that the underlying issue with the persistence of sexual violence isn’t exactly women’s credibility, as the “believe women” slogan suggested, but rather with rape’s moral status. It’s not that people think it doesn’t happen. They think it doesn’t matter.

Ban men.

I cannot tell you how much it sucked seeing Chomsky say this five days after it happened but finding out he was cooking up this take while taking favors from Jeffrey Epstein really adds another layer of bitterness

It's almost worse when bad things make sense.

NEW: School hallways are silent. Grandparents patrol outside in shifts. Two more kids taken from Liam Ramos' school. Trump isn't deescalating ICE at all at MN schools. “I stopped wearing my high heels to work. I wear my boots to work because I have had to run." www.huffpost.com/entry/ice-mi...

"MPR News has learned that the police chief in the small southern Minnesota city of St. Peter intervened Thursday afternoon to prevent federal immigration agents from arresting a local resident" who had been observing federal agents. www.mprnews.org/story/2026/0...

Walz told me he wants Bovino and Stephen Miller held accountable for what they’ve done in Minnesota. “Accountability goes all the way to the top.”

A SHIPMENT OF WHAT?

Remember in the first term when people would post the daily cost of Trump's secret service scam & how he was making bank by charging them outrageous fees to stay at his properties? That seems so quaint, even naive, now. Now its just a Thursday.

Probably run this up the flag pole a few times in the next week but if you live in #Colorado please consider contacting Gov Polis regarding his recent chatter about pardoning #TinaPeters. governorsoffice.colorado.gov/governor/con...

Just after Trump “pivoted”, his former personal lawyer now Deputy head of DOJ granted ICE extraordinarily sewping powers to arrest people without warrants www.nytimes.com/2026/01/30/u...

Amazing revelation about the creator of the popular girl undressing app - Elon Musk had more extensive ties to Epstein than previously known, emails show www.theguardian.com/technology/2...

None of them, absolutely none of them, believe that women are fully human with agency and bodily autonomy, let alone that we are their equals.

More of this 👇 A LOT more

Fuck yes Mikie get ‘em

btw the civility panic a few years ago was about precisely this: the ability to have polite conversations about how black people are racially inferior in public without criticism or backlash bsky.app/profile/hann...

So @beachperi.bsky.social sent me this & I so enjoyed every paragraph. Enjoy... www.theguardian.com/film/2026/ja...

So many stories of powerful men who casually decide to surreptitiously drug their significant others as a way to deal with a "problem". Y'all are creepy af.

There's 4, not 2. All Black. www.npr.org/2026/01/30/n...

Technically Elon is right, because the article speculated about a trip to Epstein's island in December 2014 when the emails show he went in December 2013. You know, five years after Epstein pleaded guilty to charges of procuring a child for prostitution.

I know we all make fun of their incompetence, but this is really breathtaking.

I went on a Catherine O'Hara tear in Nov last year after finishing Schitts. Rewatched all of Christopher Guests movies - Waiting For Guffman, Best in Show, A Mighty Wind etc. One of my absolute fav genres & she was such a master. I'm awed by her talent; what an amazing legacy she leaves.

As for the announcement that the DOJ was finally mounting a civil rights investigation into Pretti's death:

This is also a reminder that Trump's authoritarian corruption is heavily enabled by the GOP Congress. This prosecution should be scrutinized by the judiciary committees. The GOP won't do this. But a Dem House can. And Dems should say clearly that this is coming: newrepublic.com/article/2059...

Trump's arrest of Don Lemon shows that his "pivot" is an utter farce. As legal experts tell me, this looks appallingly corrupt. Indeed, it's likely this is all about sending a message that Trump isn't deescalating in the slightest. New piece with fresh details here: newrepublic.com/article/2059...

A lot of people can profit from fascism. A lot.

A new heartland economy based on ICE warehouses and AI data farms.

If the DOJ thought putting the most outrageous Trump Epstein claims out there would cover for redactions of the more plausible crimes they really haven’t been paying attention to internet conspiracy culture.

I feel like maybe Jeffries and Schumer could try and stop the evil. In fact must try.

DHS has a whole citizen detainment system set up in Minnesota. They snatch citizens off the street (often with proof they are citizens), detain them for a few hours, steal their phones, then release them into the cold. It ain’t about deporting citizens; it’s about terrorizing a whole population.

@schumer.senate.gov is going to be written down in the history books as a complicit player in assisting and enabling the fascist regime’s mass terrorism, torture, and murder of the American people and everyone who lives here - legally or not.

There is no reason any of these men need any of this gear. This entire situation is not only dangerous and illegal. It is absurd and stupid. www.nytimes.com/video/us/100...

“Okay, American King here is the deal … we will fund your secret police force IF, and only IF, you agree to follow the laws we already passed (but have yet to hold you accountable for violating each and every one of them),” Democratic leadership — literally.

An older Dem just messaged me their disappointment in Schumer. Totally out of character for this person. Anyway, Schumer should be a) leading, b) fearless & c) a living breathing embodiment of Dem values & I'm not seeing it.

The tiny fraction of these stories that we actually know about... & what's happening to the people disappeared... breaks my freakin heart. 😪
