Forcing the AG to publicly defend every redaction, line-by-line, would be a fun exercise.

Donald Trump's administration is treating the people of this country as an adversary. It's pushing the boundaries of its authority, terrorizing our communities, and disregarding all accountability. We will not meet intimidation with fear — we will meet it with truth.

Donald Trump's masked agents believe that their actions are immune from investigation or accountability — they're not. I've signed an Executive Order today establishing the Illinois Accountability Commission to create a public record and capture the impact on our communities.

Donald Trump's effort to deploy troops in American cities is not normal. There is no rational justification for such a deployment. It is a breach of the most fundamental values and customs that our armed forces operate on.

This should have have been the end, in 2016.

Remember 2015 rally Trump? 2025 Grandpa Chaos can't even put together a couple of sentences. This ain't "the weave," folks. This rambling word salad is your sundowning FOTUS. Cognitive decline...brought to you by rapidly failing adventures in WH physician chemistry. 📺 bsky.app/profile/atru...

A bespoke approach to increasing the number of women in the building trades:

I’ve had an insanely busy day, but I’m getting around to digging through the Epstein File release. Lot of redactions so far.

Trump has to do it while he’s alive because no one will do it when he’s dead. Everybody will be at the party.

🚨🚨 Rep. Thomas Massie (R-KY) says that a future DOJ could criminally prosecute Attorney General Pam Bondi and others in the administration for breaking the law in regards to the Epstein Files Transparency Act

am I doing this meme right

I cannot state any more baldly or clearly than I already have about what an immense menace RFK Jr. is. The number of preventable illnesses and deaths - of *babies* - will be horrific. This anti-vax crap is grotesque anti-science, and always has been.

A very tired Trump struggling through his speech while calling Biden Sleepy Joe. It’s all projection.

There it is: “Fat cat” insurance companies. Elizabeth Warren would be proud. 🤡

Another exhibit for @sean-hecker.bsky.social for vindictive and selective prosecution.

Elise Stefanik to rejoin Harvard Institute of Politics.

this is the case with every trump story in the history of trump stories, it is *always* worse than it looks at first

Something I find super ironic is that them oh so smugly leaving the Clinton info and photos unredacted they essentially admit that the redacted photos and info are *not* those of Dem adjacent people. Otherwise they’d happily show it. Meaning, we SHOULD just assume all that shit is Trump/GOP related

Former President Bill Clinton has responded to the latest release of files associated with notorious sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein with a stern statement accusing the White House of using him as a scapegoat.

"has feminism failed women" Earlier this year, a contractor was on my property to remove dead tree limbs. He noticed I'd had a new fence installed since the last time he was there. "Did your husband put that up?" feminism has failed women by not smashing the patriarchy hard enough

For the record, the law states that "No record shall be withheld, delayed, or redacted on the basis of embarrassment, reputational harm, or political sensitivity, including to any government official, public figure, or foreign dignitary." www.congress.gov/bill/119th-c...

The most powerful force in American politics today is anti-establishment fury at a rigged economic system. To counter Trump’s fake populism and his culture wars, progressives should mount a real battle against economic elites who have shafted America’s middle and working classes.

Tapper: This is one of the documents the DOJ released. It’s 100 pages. It’s all black. That’s the transparency we’re getting.

Stunning new revelation: Epstein hung out almost exclusively with guys who had black boxes where their heads should be.

JFK’s niece: h/t @jamiegangel.bsky.social

DOJ will refuse to release the Epstein files based on their sham "ongoing investigation." Bookmark it.

Trump, who had a long friendship with Epstein, is notably absent from the DOJ’s file dump.

Transparency at last 🙄

ChatGPT “police incident reports usually include officer name, badge ID number, even in redacted reports. This file is not typical and suggests intentional suppression of identifiers beyond normal victim protection”

The Epstein file is the only thing Trump has ever taken his name off of

Today, we're learning why DOJ didn't release the redacted files last March. Because the multitude of redactions exposes how much they're covering up.

to the young girls that had to endure this I am truly sorry. As a society for decency this should not be happening. Men with money think they can do anything to young girls shame on you.

No wonder they redacted the shit out of it - Trump is literally plastered all thoughout these documents.

Yeah. And it wont happen. The question is - does america shrug and say gosh darn he destroyed all the evidence so we can't convict?

It's terrifying to realize that this one's only unredacted because it escaped.

FROM THE EPSTEIN FILES: During one of Doe's encounters with Epstein, he took her to Mar-a-Lago where he introduced her to its owner, Donald J. Trump. Introducing 14-year-old Doe to Donald J. Trump,... 1/2

Schiff: "I think we ought to bring Pam Bondi before the Senate Judiciary Committee demand answers as to why the DOJ has violated the law."

Elise Stefanik dropped out of the governor's race and is exiting Congress. But we'll always remember her for that balmy day in Plattsburgh, New York, when she was roundly booed by her constituents while honoring a deceased county clerk. Not just boos, but shouts of “Traitor" and “You’re a Nazi.”

Schiff: "Part of this is a consequence I think frankly of Chief Justice Roberts giving the president absolute immunity when it comes to his instructions to the DOJ. He can pretty much order them to do what he wants and know that he will never be held criminally liable."

Deputy AG Todd Blanche tells Congress the Justice Department identified 1,200 names of Epstein victims or relatives of victims. DOJ redacted/withheld materials that could reveal identities.

I'm looking forward to 2029 when we remove and destroy every aspect of Trump's name on federal property like US forces taking down everything with Saddam Hussein on it. That's the bare minimum any Dem should do. Leave no trace of his existence.

I found it. The Bari Weiss/CBS News town hall promo for feminism does indeed use a 1964 photo of Beatles fans.

Trump taking over the Kennedy Center has the same vibes.

NEW: Trump’s DOJ will not comply with today’s release deadline for the Epstein files. Per Trump’s deputy AG, the full release will instead take place “over the next couple weeks.” All files were required by law to be released today.

Joint statement by Ranking Members Robert Garcia and Jamie Raskin on Trump Administration decision to defy Epstein Files Transparency Act.

Reps. Garcia and Raskin on the Trump DOJ not producing all of the Epstein files, as required by law: "Courts around the country have repeatedly intervened when this Administration has broken the law. We are now examining all legal options in the face of this violation of federal law."

Let's be honest, they could release a study that says eating cheese CAUSES dementia and we'd all be like "Well, at least I'll have cheese."
