HUGE NEWS from the new Epstein files: Records show that Maria Farmer, who worked for Epstein, filed a "child pornography" report to the FBI in 1996. The FBI has never before acknowledged that complaint. The case went nowhere, and mass abuse followed. www.nytimes.com/2025/12/19/u...

Marjorie Taylor Greene: "I think the midterms are gonna be very hard for Republicans. I'm one of the people that's willing to admit the truth and say I don't see Republicans winning the midterms right now, so that doesn't bode well for Mike Johnson."

Trump wastes no time targeting Sen. Mark Kelly after the indictments he orchestrated against James Comey & Letitia James are dismissed anntelnaes.substack.com/p/james-come...

I need everybody to read this and understand what’s going on. These are spouses of US citizens in the country legally. They have entry clearance and green cards, they’ve passed background checks and have no criminal records. ICE is taking them anyway. Gift link: www.nytimes.com/2025/11/26/u...

We should NOT be selling weapons to one of the worst human rights abusers in the world. This should be a no-brainer. MBS should be held responsible for the murder of journalist Jamal Khashoggi — not welcomed at the White House to celebrate a multibillion-dollar arms package deal.

Breaking on MSNBC: Two federal prosecutors have been placed on leave at the direction of the White House after filing a sentencing memo seeking 27 months in prison for a pardoned Jan. 6 rioter who brought illegal guns and ammunition to President Obama's house in 2023.

🚨BREAKING: The Department of Justice (DOJ) this week placed two federal prosecutors on leave after they wrote in a court filing that on Jan. 6, 2021, “thousands of people comprising a mob of rioters attacked the U.S. Capitol,” a source familiar with the personnel moves told Democracy Docket.

Good reminder Similar to the bi partisan Border deal that Trump blew up

Activistas afirman que la cooperación de MPD con ICE no solo pone en peligro a los residentes inmigrantes, sino que también podría poner en peligro la «seguridad pública» que, según el presidente Trump, justificaba el envío de agentes federales. 51st.news/es/ice-aumen...

This man is being subjected to a real-life version of Kafka’s “The Trial” as punishment for being the embarrassing object of the regime’s own malicious and chaotic incompetence. www.nytimes.com/live/2025/08...

Trump's billionaire remodel if the Oval Office is brought to you by the 17 million Americans who were stripped of their healthcare. Rarely has there been a POTUS so out of touch while so enabled.

The CEO of a a multi-trillion dollar company went to the White House, openly handed the US president a gift made of gold, and his company got a special exemption to tariffs the president has illegally imposed. Also, the Founders took bribery so seriously the Constitution bans it 3 separate times.

The Girl Guides of Canada said it was pausing trips to America because of border restrictions in place.

We need to watch for this in the U.S. as well. www.nytimes.com/2025/08/03/w...

Have you joined One Million Rising? We’re in a period of “authoritarian breakthrough” -- when a would-be regime moves to rapidly consolidate power, eliminate checks on that power, and operate with total impunity. www.mobilize.us/indivisibles...

Republicans are trying to charge taxpayers hundreds of millions of dollars to needlessly transfer a space shuttle from a museum in Virginia to Texas. Where’s their care and concern for stewarding taxpayer dollars now?

I've lived in Washington, DC for 19 years. This community has been through a lot of controversy and conversation about our football team. But nowadays, we pretty much have consensus about it. 1) Donald Trump, keep our team out of your mouth. 2) Release the Epstein files NOW.

Constitutional crisis is here

Congress MUST require that law enforcement be identifiable. www.cnn.com/2025/02/04/u...

The fact we have secret police whisking people off the streets doesn’t get enough attention. It ain’t normal and we’re further down the road to authoritarianism than you think.

Seems an appropriate day to highlight my recent conversation with @ruthbenghiat.bsky.social , author of *Strongmen*. Empathy and solidarity are the patriotic antidotes to authoritarianism. #FourthofJuly #July4th www.whitetoolong.net/p/empathy-an...

Why? Why don't they know? Whose responsibility is it to ensure they know, how are those mechanisms failing, and what can we do to repair or replace them? Those are the questions those who believe in journalism as public service should be asking ourselves. Because 48% is a failing grade.

There are actually quite a few undocumented Russians in the US. Anyone have any videos of ICE forcefully deporting them? Or just the brown people?

We’re calling for a Florida boycott over the inhumane “Alligator Alcatraz” detention site. Cancel your family vacation and choose a different destination this summer.

Mike Johnson just said if you are for reducing the deficit, this bill is for you. The bill adds 3-4 trillion dollars to the deficit. They just lie.

Protecting his stock portfolio while ripping away health care from 17 million Americans. This is Washington at its worst. We need to ban Congressional stock trading.

He had 5 red sirens too.

Ah, the golden age.

welp, I guess the nation's largest city is no longer free to elect a mayor of its choosing

People have no idea, not really, how this budget is about to wreck their very foundations.

I got kicked out of the fight against the bullshit Medicaid paperwork reporting requirements but I can’t stop pointing out how ALMOST EVERYONE enrolled in Medicaid is already working or disabled or CHILDREN or in nursing homes

Senate Ds did fight every step of way, made the bill toxic, forced Tillis to retire, made them vote in broad daylight as bill got worse, nixed some truly awful parts. They need more members. In 2026, vote out every R. That is what the lesson is here.

Great piece from @arstechnica.com on how the Senate budget bill could hurt your Wi-Fi: arstechnica.com/tech-policy/... As SVP @haroldfeld.bsky.social so eloquently puts it, "Any proposals to reduce or repurpose 6 GHz unlicensed spectrum would be devastating to Wi-Fi performance."

McGovern: Listen to this quote from Murkowski who just caved and voted for this. "My hope is that the house is going to look at this and recognize we are not there yet."  If you really believe that, why the hell did you vote for the bill?

tfw you've just stripped healthcare from 17 million Americans and ensured the closure of rural hospitals

The US Global Change Research Program's website, including all its sub-domains that host the National Climate Assessments and related reports, is now offline. The 1990 Global Change Research Act (see below) mandates its research findings be available to all federal agencies & departments.

Calgary removed fluoride from its water supply in 2011, but residents voted to reverse course after worsening dental health among children www.nytimes.com/2025/06/30/w...

Telling people in your community about ICE raids is NOT illegal. No matter what Pam Bondi says.

"My fellow Americans: When you pay taxes, which would you rather support? Cancer research, or getting one guy a really big boat?" @petridishes.bsky.social writes:

Chris Murphy: "This is the most deeply immoral piece of legislation I have ever voted on in my entire time in Congress."

Murray: This bill polls like garbage because it is garbage. That's why it should go nowhere except a trash bin

It’s every parent’s nightmare, isn’t it? you check your child’s bulletproof backpack and find a picture book about gay penguins

So am I reading this court decision correctly? We now have 50 micronations with their own laws interpreting the U.S. Constitution wholly separate from one another? But there's one guy with private law enforcement who is immune from all punishment who can do whatever he wants in those 50 states?

Lander: "It's just gross, racist bigotry. Meanwhile he's running an optimistic, upbeat campaign for a NY where everybody belongs, and I feel proud as the highest-ranking Jewish elected official in NYC to be supporting somebody who would be the first Muslim mayor—what could be more NYC than that?"

Dear @gallego.senate.gov, I’m a VOTER. I’m urging you to please vote NO on EMIL BOVE. He is Grossly Unfit ans unethical. We are fighting for our very lives now – our jobs, our healthcare, our freedoms. #DemsGrowASpine #CallYourSenator #PGAS app.sosha.ai/s/RrhB64Bb
