Per a new report from House Democrats, Trump's DOJ is withholding evidence of his ties to Epstein and slow-walking the complete release of the Epstein files. It's time to end the cover-up and expose the truth. Remember this when you cast your ballot. www.ms.now/news/house-j...

The vile attacks on Amy Acton need to be seen in the context of a party that *needs* people to believe women fabricating sexual assaults is common as rainwater. Because it’s pretty much the only way to evade the conclusion that the president is a rapist.

LinkedIn removed my post today for "hateful speech." I compared Todd Blanche to Nazi lawyer Hans Frank, quoting from book review: "Hans Frank, the Nazi lawyer who saw Hitler as a gift from God for the German people" Ruth Ben-Ghiat has compared Blanche to Frank. www.historytoday.com/archive/revi...

60 people have now died in ICE custody since Trump's return to office. Our country is set to spend $268 BILLION on mass deportations and detentions through the end of Trump's term. Instead of death and cruelty, imagine what we could have invested that money in instead?

🔥LinkedIn update: “Initially, your post was removed for going against our policies. As part of our review, we now find that your post doesn’t go against our policies and apologize for the mistake. Your post is back on LinkedIn.” Todd Blanche is Trump’s Hans Frank (Hitler’s personal lawyer)

"It is blatantly irresponsible for politicians like Jess Wilson to be linking legitimate and peaceful protest of Israel’s genocide in Gaza to the Bondi terror attack. We unequivocally condemn her mislabelling of peaceful protest as antisemitic." @jewishcouncilau.bsky.social statement. #springst

All this talk about Asses coming from Trump. I just have one question on that topic:
Trump wants Americans to talk about Nicki Minaj's and Jon Husted's asses rather than the 240th day of the Never Ending Iran War, the Epstein Files, the Billionaire Class trying to buy another election, fuel prices, grocery prices, housing prices, inflation, or the newest rape allegation against him.

The Australian newspaper has been claiming a "forensic audit report" shows BoM's temperature data has "widespread error". For 15 years climate sceptics have been claiming a conspiracy around the data. Is anything different this time?

This is the President of the United States just said that Abdul El-Sayed — BORN IN MICHIGAN, a Rhodes Scholar with an MD from Columbia and a doctorate from Oxford — is a physical threat who needs to go through a metal detector before entering the Senate. Why? Because he’s Muslim.

Obama: "You got the defense sec who is like a laser focused on important matters like the jawline & testosterone level of our troops, and livestreaming executions because that's how he thinks you cultivate that manly warrior spirit. How much time do you think this man spends in front of the mirror?"
