"At this moment in time, of course, the release of the TRUMPSTEIN Files is really the public's main priority."

So they didn’t like the ad. Let’s just post Reagan’s 5 min speech against tariffs as it appears on YouTube. Over and over. On all platforms (some of y’all are still on X). *1981 Sherrilyn horrified by 2025 Sherrilyn saying “let’s post Reagan’s speech.” youtu.be/5t5QK03KXPc

It’s been 32 days since @adelitaforcongress.bsky.social won her election. Republicans still won’t swear her in. She would be the tie-breaking vote to release the Epstein files.

The types of viral DARVO rhetoric that have been leveraged against celebrity women like Amber Heard are now being weaponized against everyday, working-class women who report sexual violence. And AI is helping accelerate these narratives. My latest dispatch from hell: spitfirenews.com/p/doordash-a...

The White House is asking people not to share pictures of the East Wing because it’s even worse today.

It's big Trump protest day so that means we are mere hours away from my least favorite Bluesky: the Russian disinfo surge. Here's how it works, and what you can do about it. 🧵

Swearing in isn’t some ceremony. You aren’t a member of Congress until it happens. He knows that. No phones, no staff, nothing. I had to escort her into the Capitol on Wed bc Capitol police must treat her as a public visitor until she’s sworn in. And solo visitors aren’t allowed during shutdown!

15 years ago the Supreme Court decided corporations are people under the First Amendment. Today, sold-out politicians block progress on all fronts to appease their corporate donors. Citizens United is among the worst decisions in history. It corrupts our system every day.

The plaque honoring the law enforcement officers who responded to the January 6, 2021, attack on the U.S. Capitol, which was commissioned by Congress in 2022, remains in storage. Mike Johnson has refused to place it on the wall, as was intended. That "deed" speaks pretty loudly.

The obscene face of Christian Nationalism: outlandish untaxed wealth in defiance of Jesus. Oh, and this time, slave laborers, too! Glory! Just remember, for any money you give to Heaven, there is always a 100% handling fee here on Earth.

My husband was detained by ICE today Juan Muñoz, an American citizen, father of 2, and local government official, was peacefully protesting w. other elected officials. He was assaulted and taken away I have had zero contact or updates since #SOS @duckworth.senate.gov @durbin.senate.gov

Fix this @apnews.com.

I have approximately zero following on this app, sharing in the hopes it can get in front of the right person. A man I went to college with’s wife was kidnapped by ICE at a green card hearing, and he’s trying to find a reporter who will speak to him about the situation

This is the playbook, folks. If you're not paying attention now and doing something about it, then you're going to have to sit down the rest of your life because democracy is being taken away. Do not be quiet in this moment.

Democrats Call for Congressional Probe Into Ties Between Jeffrey Epstein and Peter Thiel

This entire book is a nightmare

NYT: Several letters that Trump wrote to NYC officials from 1987 through 2001 show him signing only his first name, and those signatures closely match the first-name only version of Trump’s signature on the Epstein note.

Donald Trump's letter to me, April 13, 2006:

Cleta will get even madder if you read and share this article. So, please, don't do that... www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

Google won’t be forced to sell its Chrome browser and can keep paying companies to keep its search engine as the default on smartphones, thanks to a federal ruling. In other words? Google gets to remain a monopoly and keep its harmful, anti-competitive practices. Shameful.

I’m serious. This REALLY infuriates me. @nbcnews.com @cbsnews.com @cnn.com Do your job. You failed to lift this up in 2024. If farmers are hurting, explain why and who is to blame. And remind Americans that we paid BILLIONS for Trump’s first tariff blunder. It’s so irresponsible to ignore this.

The non vaccinated maga campaign people sent me their “terms and conditions”. (I didn’t ask for it). This is a campaign they launch with paid posts, promoted content with ten influencers launching at a time to support RFK Jr’s nonsense. So expect a wave of bs.

My law firm is currently litigating 52 voting and election cases in 23 states. This includes the Ohio case we filed on Friday night and the redistricting case challenging Texas' new congressional map. I am thankful for our clients willing to wage these fights. They, not the lawyers, are the heroes.

On that day, a rump Nazi government led by Grand Admiral Karl Dönitz was holed up in a naval academy gym on the Baltic coast, the Soviet flag had been raised over the Reichstag, Hitler had been dead for a week, and German forces controlled only the tiniest bit of ... Germany.

Republicans had a choice: expose child s*x traffickers or protect Trump. They chose Trump. They chose traffickers. They are the party of child s*x trafficking.

Trump just told on himself. Asked if DOJ should release the Epstein files, he didn’t demand truth—he cried that “innocent people” might be named, called it a “hoax,” and begged to bury it. Translation: he’s terrified. The cover-up is cracking. Keep your eyes on the Epstein files. 👀

Zelenskyy: In Mukachevo, Russians practically burned down American company producing electronics—home appliances, nothing military. Russians knew exactly where they lobbed the missiles. We believe this was a deliberate attack against American property and investments in Ukraine. US company ⬇️

The media has already forgotten about two Dems murdered and two injured in Minnesota.

We had actual an actual assassination of a Democratic legislator in Minnesota two months ago & it’s completely disappeared from the National Conversation™️. This happens <all> the time over & over again 👇

If journalists were doing their jobs, they would call the deployment of National Guard troops to Washington, DC, from three deep-red states what it is: an invasion and occupation force. https://wsvn.com/news/us-world/3-states-move-to-send-hundreds-of-national-guard-members-to-washington/

The National Guard didn’t come to protect U.S. Capitol Police officers like Harry Dunn during the Jan. 6 insurrection. He survived that day, and protected members of Congress. Now, Dunn sees The Guard, deployed by President Trump, in everyday DC. theiowamercury.substack.com/p/jan-6-capi...

I have lost all patience with the apparently unshakeable conviction that striking a reasonable, moderate pose means assuming the sincerity of transparently pretextual horseshit. Donald Trump does not care about reducing crime in DC. He is testing and normalizing paramilitary deployments in cities.

Trump will personally greet Putin in Alaska, with a red carpet, NBC says. Red from the blood of Ukrainians murdered by this dictator, perhaps? Shameful. The only welcome for a war criminal should be the click of handcuffs.
