Lobbyists for the rich and corporations...

Jonathan Alter (@jonathanalter.bsky.social) has learned that Trump will kill Netflix’s bid for Warner Bros and help Paramount win, giving the president control of Fox, CBS, CNN, and TikTok. washingtonmonthly.com/2026/02/17/t...

I’m totally convinced the adjudicated rapist who says “sometimes we have to force ourselves upon [people] because they’re so bad” and was once best friends with the world’s most notorious serial pedophile is not also criminally implicated in the Epstein Files he’s been working hard to keep redacted.

Have you ever once seen the New York Times quote Trump like this?

"The interview was conducted July 24, 2019, and entered into the FBI’s case files on August 9, the day before Epstein was found dead in his jail cell."

1/3 What Musk is really referring to here is, of course “race” - that construct that served to define the hierarchies of wealth & power structured by modern colonialism. Like other far right racists though, he uses the word “culture” as a seemingly less pernicious synonym.

The cruelty of this regime in a nutshell.

This man is a thief, coward and hypocrite. He argues the U.S. can't afford to protect workers from scammy corporations through the CFPB, but it CAN afford to pay millions and millions robbed from three different agencies to pay for his imperial guard. #stopvought www.reuters.com/world/us/whi...

The pollster was leaning against the split-rail fence, looking at the horses. (The horses had started to appear 88 years ago due to a misspelling of Gallup. A new one arrived with each completed poll.)

Not only did they murder hundreds of thousands of people. They also stole the money.

No one needs to create an AI video of RFK Jr sounding like a loon when they have real-life material like this to draw upon:

CBP didn’t give her or anyone any water; she asked 3 times accg to other reports. CBP killed a 7yr old. “8 hours after the girl & her father were taken into custody, she began having seizures & her body temperature was measured at 105.7 degrees by emergency medical technicians. shorturl.at/d2OTJ

But Pam said…

🚨In December 2016, Epstein invited Bill Gates to his island and informed him that “new administration people” were visiting. This was sent exactly one month before Trump was inaugurated for his first term.

Border czar Tom Homan said the ICE surge will soon end, but protest leaders say there’s a need for continued vigilance.

I know I’m screaming into a void a bit, but I sure hope the Democratic Party holds the line on this. I’d love the DHS and ICE be treated the way USAID has been treated but anything to kick its knees out from under it seems like an improvement over the lawless shitshow they’ve offered this past year.

The Trump administration is incarcerating migrant girls in, essentially, a forced pregnancy camp.

Democrats, do not be fooled. If you cave and approve DHS funding, they’ll be back and worse than last time. Republicans keep showing you their hand, stop shaking it.

More than 21 millions Americans do not have documentation proving their citizenships, and would be disenfranchised by the SAVE Act the GOP just passed through the House. www.brennancenter.org/our-work/ana...

Breaking: House passes new version of SAVE Act, worst voter suppression bill considered by Congress. Could disenfranchise: -21 million Americans w/out access to citizenship papers -69 mil married women who took partner’s name -21 mil w/out valid drivers license www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

This is the aftermath of an ICE kidnapping a few blocks from my home in St. Paul—an hour ago. A quiet street full of broken glass and at least three wrecked cars. The target of the kidnapping was taken away by ambulance. He was on a stretcher and covered by a sheet, though a cop said he was alive.

When Pam Bondi is questioned about rich and powerful people raping children, she prefers to talk about rich and powerful people making money.

Watters: I was walking in my street, a car drives by and I give him a wave. He rolls down the window and says, “F U fascist.” He doesn’t know I’m a fascist! Jessica: Yes, he does. You’re on TV.

The Trump administration’s decision to remove the Pride Flag from the Stonewall National Monument is despicable.   This administration’s bigotry will not erase the history of Stonewall.   I'll always stand with our LGBTQ+ community.

My take on Trump ordering the removal of the Pride flag at the Stonewall National Monument in NYC is that he's a pedophile and rapist who is actively covering up his role in a massive sex trafficking operation that targeted children and doing everything he can to distract from that cover-up.

“He’s my first born,” Susan Pretti said. “He’s the one that made me a mother. There was no reason he should have died that day.” Alex Pretti's parents talk to the @nytimes.com Jack Healy. . www.nytimes.com/2026/02/10/u...

If they have their way these idiots will kill us all.

My Latest: Contrary to many doomsayers, it is not too late to protect the midterm elections. There are steps Democrats can take now — at both the state and federal levels — to safeguard our elections. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/its-...

It has been reported that Donald Trump's name appears in the Epstein files 38,000 times. That is a lie. Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-Md.) has said that when he searched for Trump in the unredacted files, Trump’s name came up “more than a million times.” We should be calling them “The Trump Files.”

I’ve enjoyed the clips I’ve seen of JB Pritzker standing up to Trump the way he has, but I remain wary of championing an oligarch for all the obvious reasons. This lengthy and exceptional article goes into the weeds about Pritzker and his family and I really appreciate that it was written.

And the crimes! So many crimes! We have national security crimes, sex crimes, financial crimes, health crimes, war crimes, crimes against humanity, crimes against justice, crimes against the climate, crimes that threaten the very survival of the human race.

[frantically raising hand] ooh, ooh. I know. Because Americans have a constitutional right to vote but don't have a right to open a bank account or drive a car.

President Donald Trump's tariffs cost the average American household $1,000 last year, according to new research from the nonpartisan Tax Foundation. abcnews.go.com/Business/tru...

Rep. Kennedy: "Do you believe your agency has a legal obligation to follow court orders?" ICE Director Lyons: "Yes." Rep. Kennedy: "You have a very strange way of showing it, with a federal judge finding that your agency is in violation of 96 orders in one month alone."

Rep. Magaziner: "A family of US citizens who were out to get groceries…Your agents sprayed pepper spray out of their vehicle and into the driver's side window…Is it proper procedure to aim pepper spray into the window of a moving vehicle?" CBP Comm'r: "We try to avoid that."

Jaime Raskin says Donald Trump is in the unredacted Epstein files over a million times. Somehow, it’s always worse than we think.

Here's what DHS doesn't want you to know: Working for ICE is one of the safest jobs in America — and last year was the second-safest year for the agency on record. And the doxxing? It hasn't actually happened even once. The masks are justified by a lie. www.doomsdayscenario.co/p/ice-s-mask...

This is literally what CURRENT LAW requires. It’s in the Constitution! www.politico.com/news/2026/02...

It would be great if the top two stories about the executive branch were not a huge multinational child rape coverup and the establishment of a gulag of concentration camps

That’s what’s up.

Let me rephrase this: "Maxwell will lie for clemency"

If Bad Bunny was serious about uniting Americans, he would have given his Grammy to Donald Trump.
