Jack Smith also made clear he expected Trump would try to indict him in retaliation: "I am eyes wide open that this President will seek retribution against me if he can. I know that." He testified anyway, under oath, knowing the consequences. That's what honoring an oath looks like.

Critics Warn Israeli Ban on Aid Groups in Gaza 'Will Cost the Lives of Palestinians' www.commondreams.org/news/israel-... Brett Wilkins, Common Dreams Critics Warn Israeli Ban on Aid Groups in Gaza 'Will Cost Lives of Palestinians' (Well, that's the point, isn't it? It's been genocide by design)

Russia conducted a false-flag attack on Putin's residence and forgot the "flag" part. The CIA confirms that Putin is lying and Russia is full of sh*t.

For the last few days on X, people (mainly women, and sometimes children) have had nonconsensual images of them in swimsuits (or much worse) requested by users and created by Grok. Musk's only apparent response thus far has been to crack jokes about it.

Gill on Epstein Files: I reached out to sources and they say that not only did New York send over everything they had in March, but that the entire review process—using roughly a thousand analysts from the FBI’s Information Management Division—was specifically to review the files from New York

# aid groups banned 37 ActionAid, Handicap Internat'l, Drs Without Borders from 6 European countries, 2 Oxfam chapters, Internat'l Rescue Comm, American Friends Service Comm, World Vision Internat'l, Norwegian Refugee Council, Mercy Corps, Defense for Children Internat'l, 2 Caritas branches, & CARE

WSJ editorial on the latest of the hundreds of tariff walkbacks by trump (this one for furniture): “Rarely has a President worked so hard to cover the damage from his policies without admitting it.”

Strange takes on Mayor Zamdani swearing his oath on the Qu’ran. It has nothing to do with church & state. The point of the oath is for the person swearing in to do so upon some text that is sacred TO THEM. Some Presidents swore in w/o any book. John Quincy Adams was sworn on a law book. His choice.

I was wondering what Mamdani's first executive order would be, and I'm not disappointed by this. He has wiped off the books EVERY Eric Adams executive order issued on or after September 26, 2024, the day Adams was indicted on federal bribery charges.

It is terrible that Trump and Hegseth are ordering the wanton and unjustified killings of civilians, and doing so in our name. It is terrible that Republicans in Congress are unwilling to stop or even investigate them.

Alabama’s homicide rate is more than double New York City’s. Remember that the next time Tommy Tuberville criticizes NYC’s “crime and migrants.”

Mamdani: Where else can you hear the sound of the steel pan, savor the smell of sancocho, and pay $9 for coffee on the same block? Where else could a Muslim kid like me grow up eating bagels and lox every Sunday?

Isn’t it odd that when a member of an immigrant ethnic group commits a crime, right-wing white guys want to deport the entire group, but when a right-wing white guy commits a crime, the other right-wing white guys don’t volunteer to deport themselves.

🚨🚨🚨 I'm going to post this video every day so we never forget what the 34x convicted felon & adjudicated rapist Trump did. 🚨🚨🚨

In case you thought they just meant undocumented immigrants…

What the KENNEDY Center used to be… Remember that time Aretha Franklin performed at the 2015 Kennedy Center Honors, paying tribute to Carole King, who co-wrote “You Make Me Feel Like A Natural Woman,” and it brought a tear to Obama’s eye and everyone to their feet? And Carole King’s reaction. Wow.

Trump terminated the leases on 3 DC golf courses so he can scoop them up. Fucker.

Trump siding with Putin isn’t a quirk. It’s a pattern and a national security threat. Helsinki proved it. This week he echoed a false claim about Ukraine attacking Putin’s residence, now debunked. He believes Putin first. America last. It turns out that “Russia, Russia, Russia” is not a hoax.

All our public lands should look like this. Cattle are an invasive species that have all but destroyed the western ecologies, Bison graze in such a manor as to maintain healthy prairies, cattle don't. It's simple, it's cheap and it'd restore the terrestrial carbon sink, rewild the west.

This is giving New Yorkers the lift that they need, after this awful year under the First Felon. Good for them! I wish New York the best. It's a wonderful city, made better by the fact that the First Felon no longer lives there.

Zohran Mamdani is a DEMOCRAT. 💙✅ Republicans smear Democrats by using snide labels like “liberal,” and “left-wing.”

So “a million more documents” is now “roughly 5.2 million pages of Epstein files documents” And they’re “seeking to enlist about 400 lawyers” to do doc review, which means they don’t even have the people yet to get it done Trump & Pamela Jo are just slow-walking the shit out of violating the law.

The work continues. No reset — just momentum.

Probably THE single most important piece of political writing you will ever read. Not one of the most important THE most important. Our Nation will not change until we all accept responsibility for our stupid votes, and for failing to show up on Election Day Thank you, Mr Walsh

Trump admits to taking more aspirin than his docs recommend: “They say aspirin is good for thinning out the blood, and I don’t want thick blood pouring through my heart. I want nice, thin blood pouring through my heart. Does that make sense?” What could possibly go wrong! (2/6)

Finally, Trump's diet! Oh my god. The piece closes with RNC Chair Joe Gruters saying he was "shocked" to witness Trump eat "french fries, a McDonald’s Quarter Pounder hamburger, a Big Mac and a Filet-O-Fish" in one sitting (5/6)

When Trump is out of office, and this whole "we don't indict a sitting president" bullshit no longer applies, I want to see Jack Smith's charges slapped on his ass so fast and hard he won't know what hit him. I want to see the Epstein victims sue his
