Today I’ll mostly be reposting about the new evidence Trump was likely a serial rapist of teenage girls.

It begins. Clearly incriminating evidence against president of the United States. Epstein to Maxwell, April 2, 2011: "i want you to realize that that dog that hasn't barked is trump. [VICTIM] spent hours at my house with him ,, he has never once been mentioned. police chief. etc."

Ok, so Epstein wrote that Trump 1. “knew about the girls” and 2. “spent hours” with one of the victims. www.pbs.org/newshour/pol...

Trump "spent hours with" underage girl at Epstein's house

What did Trump know? I've been wondering too. substack.com/@jacquelines...

The emails also include a message in which Epstein asserts Trump “knew about the girls” www.cnn.com/2025/11/12/p...

🚨BREAKING: Oversight Dems have received new emails from Jeffrey Epstein’s estate that raise serious questions about Donald Trump and his knowledge of Epstein’s horrific crimes. Read them for yourself. It’s time to end this cover-up and RELEASE THE FILES.

MPD works with ICE. This is a well-known fact in DC, despite anything that Mayor Bowser might claim. *ICE/Feds have been spotted riding along with MPD * ICE/Feds share a radio channel with MPD * MPD will sometimes escort ICE/Fed convoys through the city They work together.

This article is framed to serve as an apology for Schumer and the others, but instead it just reveals them as oblivious, feckless creatures of habit. All you need to know: “…Durbin and Shaheen…said Schumer never tried to dissuade them from backing it.” …\1 wapo.st/4oLbnuT

Jeffries: "It's unbelievable that for 7 plus weeks Rep.-elect Adelita Grijalva has been denied the ability to serve more than 800,000 people in Arizona because Republicans are running a pedophile protection program."

The spirit of DC right now.

I just emailed Tim Kaine’s legislative director with exactly those questions (and a whole lot more). I’ve been betrayed multiple times by institutions. I’ve belonged to, but I’m not sure any have topped this one. @kaine.senate.gov

I would be interested to know about the decision by opponents of the bill not to object to the unanimous consent requests that shortened the time to passage. It rarely gets explored, and I think they’re interesting and very human reasons, though they’ll also make some people mad.

The finale of the great TV comedy show Blackadder goes Forth. Back then I didn't expect one of the funniest programmes ever to end with a scene that makes me cry every time I see it. Every single time.

Unlike you, I can read and that’s why I know what the constitution says.

Former US Institute of Peace security chief testifies: “I observed members of the [DC] MPD giving each other high-fives and fist bumps as I was escorted from the USIP headquarters building.” It’s part of a sworn declaration submitted as part of my lawsuit to release body cam footage of the raid.

Who did it better @nydailynews.com or @nytimes.com ? NYT editors are entrusted by their readers to prioritize what’s important. Their editorial decisions such as layout of the #FrontPage contribute to public memory. Democracywashing the multifaceted coup attempt and subversion of 2020 election👇

“Look at me, bitches!” They’d better be prepared to wear masks for the rest of their lives, because after we defund and dismantle their agencies, we’re putting all these gestapo on a national registry.

Lol. I’ll just respond with the same response I gave to someone else on this thread. Ordinary people’s time—protesting, communicating—is worth a lot more than money in the hands of the Democratic Party. bsky.app/profile/bren...

One must conclude the median democratic senator watches the Scooby Doo episodes with rapt suspense

I finally got TikTok just to watch this. I’ve been infuriated at how Kaine is swanning around with that air of impunity that comes with another four years in office—he’s made himself the florid face of this quisling capitulation with such unseemly eagerness. I went down there, too, yesterday.

This is most of the reason but remember it next time they tell you how important the senate is for allowing slow and careful deliberation and debate

Here is an excellent explanatory 🧵 from yesterday about how Democrats still had a chance to hold things up even after the infamous vote. They capitulated again, in effect. Stay mad, keep calling. Schumer and Durbin have to go.

I urge everyone to continue to make calls to their Democratic Senators to express disgust over this capitulation, even or especially to the ones who voted No. The No votes mean nothing without votes to remove Schumer and his Whip, Durbin. I’m laying off for a while—they know my voice too well.

Honored to represent the Golden State in Brazil today — proof that clean energy and innovation strengthen our economy, communities, and planet. While Donald Trump is busy handing the future to China, California continues to build and invest in it.

Is that the promised vote? Does that count as fulfilling Thune's pledge?

Endorsement by the Bezos Bee should end your career in the Democratic Party. But Kaine’s a Senator with four years left in his term and is swanning around with an air of impunity—the eager, florid face of this quisling capitulation. www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/202...

Once they do that, they can either agree to move on to a vote on final passage, or if anyone hold out, they can file a cloture motion to cut off debate, and they'll have to get 60 votes all over again to end debate on the amended bill. After THAT, they can vote up or down on whether to pass it.

This sounds like the start of a conversation to put Paw Paw in an assisted living center.

"We’re done waiting for Dems to find their spine. We can’t afford a weak & cowardly Democratic Party while the authoritarians invade our cities, terrorize our communities, & threaten our democracy. We get the party we demand, & we intend to demand a Democratic Party that fights.” — @indivisible.org

This allows Trump (via DOJ) to use taxpayer money to bribe eight GOP Senators. It's that simple, there's no other way to describe it. And where's the compensation for people injured by the Trump admin's unlawful conduct through DHS & DOGE? Take a bow, @schumer.senate.gov, you did this.

JUST IN: Trump CAVES after we called him out for letting billionaires keep their private jets flying while thousands of commercial flights are canceled. Yesterday, Secretary Sean Duffy couldn’t answer a simple question from Fox News—and now they’re banning private jets from 12 major airports. (1/5)

Dropped by the Russell and Hart Senate office buildings with a companion to express our displeasure to Kaine’s and Warner’s staffs about last night’s capitulation. The Calder sculpture in the atrium of the Hart Building is “Mountain and Clouds”, but they removed the clouds (seen in the maquette)…\1

Do you see now why resistance movements have to spend a considerable amount of time and effort rooting out traitors, informers, and those unwilling to make the necessary sacrifices for the movement?

These pardons are what our founding charter calls High Crimes.

Inspiring rhetoric, but still mere rhetoric. We the public can get up our courage with brave talk by ourselves. What we need you to do, an elected official holding the levers of power, is to pull those levers for concrete political ends. Start by demanding a vote to dispose of your Minority Leader.

In response to this claim that the "strategy didn't work." The people were on our side. We were building momentum to help save our democracy. We could have won - the premium increase notices were just starting. And giving in now will embolden him. Things will likely get worse.
