This is bleak: Jes Staley, currently CEO of Barclays, reassuring Epstein that popular revolt against financial elites is unlikely because capitalism and pop culture have defanged social movements, leaving people more invested in consumption than justice.

did dRumpf vote in FL In the presidential election? In FL, convicted felons are permanently barred from voting. Just gimme a min, I dreamed this was The Way, like the Capone Clause. Anyone want to weigh in?

(CBS News) - U.S. Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick has said he had "limited interactions" with Jeffrey Epstein, but documents show they were in business together as recently as 2014. @cbsnews.com www.cbsnews.com/news/howard-...

Far too many ICE agents are lawless, cruel and despicable bullies.

Three-time Trump voter: I'm looking at this awful picture of the Obamas. What an embarrassment to our country. He is not worthy of the presidency. He takes bribes blatantly, and now he's being a racist blatantly. He's pathetic as a president, and I want to apologize for supporting this rotten man.

The New York Times has finally covered the Trump video of Obama as an ape — and they are still providing cover for him. Fuck the Times.

I think it's best for everyone to understand that the unified class project of billionaires right now is to do to white collar workers what globalization and neoliberalism did to blue collar workers.

We gotta come up with a better system than “everything rests on whether these twelve billionnaires are nice”

When I was a kid in a small southern town, Book World opens avenues I did not know existed. Fuck you Jeff Bezos. Fuck you and your fascist agenda to hell. RIP @washingtonpost.com

Conway: If you want your lives to be better and you want this country to persevere for your kids, we need to impeach and remove this fascist fucker now, as soon as possible. And I know that language is tough, but that’s where we are.

They just blindly shot through the fucking door. "Additional photographs show damage consistent with a bullet fragment lodged in a bedroom wall down the hallway — suggesting it traveled between a mattress and a portable crib in a room where several small children sleep."

ICE Observers Paid ✅ ❌ Outside ✅ ❌ Agitators ✅ ❌

@schumer.senate.gov could learn a lot from @jimmcgovernma.bsky.social . Hey Chuck, maybe shut up and listen

“This ought to be the final nail in the coffin of congressional Republicans’ breathless efforts to gin up impeachment charges against a judge whose only actual sin, as it turns out, was to decline to roll over when the government defied one of his orders, and then lied about it.” Me @ “One First”:

President Trump has violated international law and U.S. law by threatening the use of military force against Greenland, writes Alberto Mora.It is in the national interest for Congress to hold the administration accountable, and here’s how they can do it: #Greenland #NATO #Congress

There’s a highly classified whistleblower complaint about Tulsi Gabbard that’s been held up and not sent to Congress for 8(!) months And a former aide to Gabbard runs her agency’s watchdog office & she got rid of the top attorney in that watchdog office www.wsj.com/politics/nat...

i am very much of the view that undermining the court’s secrecy is a necessary part of remaking it into something like an actual court (and not some guardian council) www.nytimes.com/2026/02/02/u...

The king of law firm capitulators was also apparently an Epstein fanboy. www.ft.com/content/e12a...

🚨 Maxwell dropped a bombshell claim that 4 potential co-conspirators & 25 men scored SECRET settlements tied to Epstein's ABUSE, WITHOUT facing any indictment AG Bondi is AVOIDING the question: "WHO are these men, & WHY are they still being PROTECTED?" www.rawstory.com/ghislaine-ma...

straight up Gestapo shit

Bill Ackman went after academic plagiarism even though his wife had plagiarized in academia. David Brooks said Epstein Files weren't worth looking at while knowing he'd met with Epstein. Team Trump campaigned on releasing Epstein Files knowing Trump was Epstein's confidant. The hubris is endemic.

MAGA election conspiracists have been working with the DOJ for months, as I previously reported in November. Now, they've gotten their wish. Up next: - Manipulation of seized materials to create false fraud narrative - Attempted takeover of Fulton County by Trump allies zeteo.com/p/trump-geor...

Absolutely chuffed. 2025 was the hardest year I have experienced as a writer (fascism isn’t great) so I was thrilled when @identitytheory.bsky.social picked up Baggage. Thank you for nominating this one; it means the world to me.

Find me a better photo sro sum up THIS. I dare you.

It's almost too obvious to state, but the government and people that arrested Don Lemon are literal Nazis.

The powerful tools in ICE’s arsenal to track suspects — and protesters - The Washington Post Here’s your Deep State you projectionist fucks

the feds saying theyll end their campaign of terror against an american city if their demands are met is the biggest domestic scandal of my lifetime

It’s easy to forget since he’s still a high public official but Homan straight up took $50,000 in cash from undercover agents on camera and then nothing happened

Trump is dispatching Border Czar Tom Homan to Minnesota to "manage operations on the ground." In case you missed it, here's our investigation into Homan and his relationships with government contractors/consultants cashing in on the deportation business:

NEW: Mass detention, violent arrests, troops in cities. President Donald Trump’s mass deportation campaign has been one of his administration’s most high-profile efforts. One year in, we take a look at the costs of this immigration crackdown so far. With @texastribune.org

“Trump is a lawless president. He disregards the law, he disregards the Constitution, and when people do not cave, he then starts retribution. I believe giving in leads to more illegal actions and outrageous actions from the president.” — @jenagriswold.bsky.social www.wired.com/story/donald...

Please let Ron how you feel

Here's the Heritage Foundation all-in on repealing Section 230 so that litigious Christian nationalists can dictate the speech rules for the entire Internet It's so embarrassing so many Dems are falling for this www.teenvogue.com/story/some-d...

Trump’s fundraisers are now using the threat of dispatching ICE against citizens as an email engagement tactic.

www.usatoday.com/story/news/p... Hey, tit for tat- Trump had his ear “shot”. Pass it on.

New: "House Health Panel Member Kevin Hern Sold UnitedHealth Amid Stock-Trading Ban Push" me, for @forbes.com

This is complete bullshit, and it's a criminal administration's transparent effort to cover up a crime. www.ms.now/news/no-civi...

Breaking per NBC News — CBP has shot and critically wounded another person, this time in Arizona. Very few details available at this time.

Something important to understand about ICE thugs in the Twin Cities is that they're harassing innocent kids and parents at bus stops and schools every single day. Even after the Pretti shooting. It's terrorism.

Who is this fucker? Someone get his name. Raising your voice is a right in this country. He has NO authority to stop you. Hey @cbsnews.com.web.brid.gy see what your Vichy media has begotten? Hey @housedemocrats.bsky.social you cucks. He’s threatening- silence or violence. ON YOU

Corruption under Trump isn’t a scandal—it’s a system. 1/

BTW when I say abolish ICE, I mean abolish it entirely and replace it with exactly nothing. Give me your tired, your poor, your huddled masses yearning to breathe free. That's it.

Victor Manuel Diaz, 36, was abducted in Minneapolis. He died in ICE’s El Paso detention camp 8 days later on Jan 14. ICE calls it suicide. They didn’t send his body to the El Paso County ME who just classified another “suicide” at that camp a homicide. They sent him to an army medical center.

Fun fact: Your local bookstore is doing more to protect you and your neighbors than Amazon is.

To reiterate: (The fact that he had a gun he never drew is immaterial; the videos show that they attacked him before they knew it; they murdered him after they confiscated it.)

He wasn't going to a protest. There was no planned protest. It was people in a neighborhood witnessing & recording public actions by secret police. Gun-at-protest is a lie & distraction.

The most important public health story right now in America is that the Trump administration is executing people in the streets, it is kidnapping people of all ages, including 2-year-olds, it is torturing them, & it is putting them in concentration camps where many have been killed or “disappeared”

The majority of organizing happening in Minnesota isn’t just peaceful, it’s INVISIBLE. Moms showing up who won’t be interviewed on TV, people whose ICE patrols don’t turn into viral video. The grocery runs, the donations, the people filming bc they happen to be there. Please remember this.

Our country was founded on resistance to a tyrant.
