We're just about to leave Step #3 with Trump and Epstein

According to Tom Holman the ICE agents in Minnesota are the victims.

After executing Alex Pretti on Saturday, ICE has shifted to primarily targeting bus stops and elementary schools in my community this week. I cannot overstate how much of the ICE activity in my community is just targeting places where little kids are.

Video from this morning shows ICE agents deploying tear gas outside a Minneapolis preschool as parents shout, “This is a preschool! There’s kids here!”

Whenever I see those padded football helmets I like to think that maybe there is some little old granny crocheting them somewhere, complete with team logos. #Broncos #Patriots #Playoffs

The choice is impeachment and removal or calamity for the United States. I don't see how anybody watching Trump's speech in Davos can draw any other conclusion. He's a senile madman.

This is the most astonishing graph of what the Trump regime has done to US science. They have destroyed the federal science workforce across the board. The negative impacts on Americans will be felt for generations, and the US might never be the same again. www.nature.com/immersive/d4...

Every time Trump breaks the clear letter of the law, the NYT and WaPo write a story about how he’s “pushing boundaries” or “testing the limits of his authority” He's not Chuck Yeager, guys. He's a crook.

Danish Parliament Deputy Speaker Lars-Christian Brask: "If I could come with some advice, it would be for the Senate & House to start to take control of political power in America because with this erratic & mad behaviour, you have to ask the question, is the President capable of running the US?"

A felon who married an immigrant is telling a lot of y’all that the problems in this country all stem from felons and immigrants. But keep buying that stupid red hat that’s made in China.

This Jack Smith deposition makes one thing abundantly clear: If Donald Trump wasn’t re-elected, he’d be spending the rest of his life in prison. And he should be.

On Jack Smith deposition, now released: 100% obvious why GOP refused to allow this as open testimony, aired live. It's damning. Testimony from John Dean or Alex ("wiretaps") Butterfield in Watergate days would have 1/10th the impact if just in print. What Smith says is far more incriminating.

Ha! I've been calling them the Epstein/Trump files for weeks already!

“What's happening to CBS is a terrible embarrassment and if execs think they can build shareholder value by avoiding journalism that might offend the Mad King they are about to learn a tough lesson. This is still America and we don’t enjoy bullshit like this.” www.washingtonpost.com/business/202...

He is utterly incapable of appropriate human behavior. If you had a relative like this you’d have him put away.

Welcome to Hell.

Hey @villanovapr.bsky.social is this representative of your school’s values?

The US government is now a mafia organization.

Trump is reshaping election control by installing loyalists and stripping state power, a sweeping federal grab that could let the White House decide how America votes and who counts the ballots. open.substack.com/pub/theintel...

By the way, the real drug traffickers aren’t on the boats. Those are just mules getting paid a few bucks. Trump doesn’t go after the real kingpins, he either leaves them alone or pardons them.

Is there a line he has yet to cross? Is that what y’all are waiting for? Pedophile isn’t enough? Rape isn’t enough? Felon isn’t enough? Lying isn’t enough? When is enough going to be enough? #WantBetterVoteBetter #DefendersOfDemocracy @thedefofdemocracy.bsky.social

With Donald Trump threatening a Navy attack against Venezuela won’t that detract from his campaign to win a Nobel Peace Prize? He’ll do anything to deflect from the Epstein scandal.

Wild graphic on front page of WSJ.

Trump has one playbook:
When truth threatens him, he calls it a “hoax.” He did it with Russia, Ukraine, COVID, the 2020 election, E. Jean Carroll, and now 20,000+ emails, “The Jeffrey Epstein Hoax” If it’s all a hoax, why did real people suffer?

This is the best takedown of Musk I’ve ever read. From a beloved author around my age no less, Joyce Carol Oates.

saw this. had to share.

The Republicans are going all the way to the Supreme Court to starve hungry children but please tell me again how the shutdown is the fault of the Democrats.

Free meals for children affected by SNAP cuts at this Subway in Columbia, Missouri. Does anyone have similar experiences in your area?

Not only are the Republicans plotting to ruin our Christmas holidays with their idiotic tariffs, now they’re threatening Thanksgiving with their airline shutdowns due to the Republican Government shutdown.

Trump is holding a Great Gatsby/Roaring 20s-themed party at his private club in Palm Beach tonight as he tries to withhold SNAP and health care subsidies from millions of Americans. (via Kellie Meyer)

Worst. President. EVER.

WTF? This man should be in jail.

Trump says cattle ranchers don’t understand the cattle industry as well as him.

“President Trump then took a call from King Charles, who admitted the Queen should have chosen him to ascend the Throne.”

In order to invoke The Insurrection Act, don’t you actually have to have an insurrection? By the way, just because words tumble out of the mouths of pea-brained Trump, Miller and Vance, it doesn’t make it true. If he’s so worried about Portland you’d think he would be there to take it all in.
