I'm done until the insurgency starts.

One of the most common forms of political violence is hitting protesters with cars. It went from being shocking and universally condemned in 2017 (Charlottesville) to being applauded by the mainstream right in 2020, which saw more than 100 vehicle ramming attacks on protesters, including 2 deaths.

Deeply disturbing rhetoric is spreading from influential MAGA figures (including the President of the United States and the owner of that other website). They have no idea who the shooter is, and many of these same people mocked Democrats when they were victims of political violence in the past. 1/

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

We’re getting very close to having a government that the majority of people regards as illegitimate, while depriving them of the one pressure valve—fair & legitimate elections—that can serve to reconcile themselves to the system. A government only survives if people believe in it—or by brute force.

Multiple times this year I’ve had coffee with fellow immigrants who grew up in corrupt third world countries and the shared sentiment has been that Americans don’t understand how bad things are going to get.

DOCTORS W/O BORDERS: “‘This is not aid. This is orchestrated killing’ draws on medical data, patient testimonies — what has been branded “aid distribution” (secured by 🇺🇸 armed contractors) is institutionalised starvation & dehumanisation.” www.msf.org/not-aid-orch...

As an American criminal plans to meet with a Russian war criminal on American soil, this is your reminder that Russia is trafficking stolen Ukrainian children. www.euronews.com/2025/08/08/s...

Article I Sections 9 & 10 of the U.S. Constitution—which limit presidential power over tariffs and protect habeas corpus—have disappeared from Congress’s website. They claim a coding error is to blame.

mRNA vaccines are one of the most important tools we have for preventing future catastrophic pandemics because we can update them more quickly than any other vaccine technology in response to new emerging viruses & variants. RFK Jr cancelling millions in mRNA research makes the world far less safe.

A journalist called all 2,000 people in Epstein’s little black book and discovered many of the people weren’t connected to Epstein at all—-but Ghislaine Maxwell. @meidastouch.com

Trump is doing exactly what MAGA has been ranting about for years—covering up Epstein ties, protecting elite pedophile rings, silencing victims, and giving safe harbor to child sex traffickers. And he’s doing it in plain sight.

I've long believed 2016 Russian operation in US was most successful intelligence operation in recent history. With disclosure that Durham investigation all predicated on disinformation, I double down on that opinion. Russia completely destroyed the United States. www.emptywheel.net/2025/08/01/h...

To recap: More than 1,000 FBI agents were assigned to comb through the Epstein Files to flag any mentions of Trump’s name for higher-ups. The FBI then redacted Trump’s name from the files before ultimately deciding not to release the documents. COVER UP!!!

I sense a pattern...

Like dirty water circling the drain...

Must be tough being MAGA…Dems want the Epstein files released, GOP leaders keep covering for Trump. And just a reminder: Epstein died in federal custody while Trump was president. Now Trump is releasing videos of Epstein with missing minutes that are manipulated? Real subtle.
