Phang: In one of those “you only believe it if you read it” moments, Politico says there are Republicans on Oversight who support the idea of convicted felon Trump giving a pardon to Ghislaine Maxwell.
The fact that that is even being considered by House Oversight Republicans should disgust you.
There has to be an investigation into the many individuals who committed heinous crimes alongside Epstein.
There should be a special prosecutor, or a congressional investigation, that looks into the crimes and the ongoing cover-up. It has to happen.
The atrocities of the epstein files only exist because of extreme inequality. None of this would happen if power was diluted. It wouldn't happen in a real democracy.
Whether or not you are a religious person, whether these faith leaders align with your faith, it's hard to deny when leaders this prominent are speaking out that something significant is happening.
I flew down to south Texas today to do my job - investigate why people are dying in ICE detention centers.
I was just illegally denied entry to Dilley Detention Center. Because they have something to hide.
The detainee was an immigrant from Nicaragua who was being held in an immigration detention facility in El Paso, which the ACLU calls a “human and civil rights disaster.”
Rep. @sethmoulton.bsky.social : "Is anyone going to just stop for a second and be honest? This is insane. What the hell are we doing? We've got a lot of problems in America today, and invading, occupying, running Venezuela does not solve any of them."
Happening now: several hundred people are pouring into Chicago's downtown Federal Plaza.
It's 25 degrees outside.
Organizers are leading the crowd in a chant of, "no boots on the ground, no bombs in the air!"
Two protesters hold a large banner reading, "no war for Venezuela oil."
Tiktok is so censored now. No more Palestinians. No more ice agents. No more trump epstein files. Thr government and billionaires literally working together to censor us. Orwell would be shitting himself.
It certainly appears the United States murdered an innocent fisherman who was a husband and father to four children, claimed he was a "narco-terrorist," posted a video of the execution, and then made jokes about it
Speaker Johnson is delaying the swearing in of Democrat Grijalva for congress. This is after reps Khanna and Massie said they only need one vote to release the epstein files. Johnson swore in rep Walkinshaw in a day. Government is expected to shut down Oct 1st, delaying the release indefinitely.
BREAKING: The Epstein Files just got one step closer to being released. With Adelita Grijalva’s victory in AZ-07, Thomas Massie and Ro Khanna now have the magic number — 218 votes — needed for the discharge petition to force a vote on releasing the full Epstein Files.
Strongly suspicious of the amount of suppsoedly leftist shooters recently emerging. Almost like theyre recent appearance would help fit a right wing agenda.

Constituent: You talked about abuses in the medicare and medicaid system and I found interesting that the president pardoned someone that defrauded the medicaid system for $1.3 billion
A woman who criticized Ghislaine Maxwell’s transfer to their facility in an interview has been transferred out to another facility which houses violent offenders. Trump’s DOJ is now punishing people who criticize his sex offender friends. www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article...
When the rich and government rip off the middle class, it's doing business. When we fight back, it's stealing... It's time to throw the Pharisees and sadducees out of our govt. and Church. We're better than this America.
Why isn't a top story that the Justice Dept had a deadline yesterday to turn over Epstein materials subpoenaed by the House Oversight Committee, and they failed to do so?
People don't seem to understand that the current power dynamic between the powerful and the working class isn't going to change without violence. We have the richest congress in history. Democrats and Republicans defend the rights of corporations over average people. You're expendable to them.
The casualty of witnessing porn on here is a little shocking. No warning or anything. Just a couple of dudes going at it while I scroll and eat a muffin.

Fox News Reporter Jacqui Heinrich: The way that it felt in the room was not good. It did not seem like things went well. And it seemed like Putin came in and steam rolled, got right into what he wanted to say and got his photo next to the president and then left
Newsom: "We're doing this in reaction to a president that called the governor of the state of Texas and said 'find me 5 seats' ... we cannot unilaterally disarm ... other blue states need to stand up"
Gavin Newsom: “Wake up America. You will not have a country if he rigs this election. These guys are not screwing around. The most corrupt president in history. He is wrecking this country, wrecking the economy. He is a lawless president. Wake up America.”
There is no liking this version of our country.
If you can afford to send your kid to a private school, then you can drive them or pay for their Ubers.
But Dayton, Ohio decided to dump the burden on the public school kids instead and prioritized school buses for the private schools.
