Men are too emotional to be president.

Thomas Massie pushed for the release of the Epstein files, and the response has been tens of millions in outside spending, smear campaigns, and coordinated attacks. If this is what they do to a sitting member of Congress, imagine what Epstein survivors face when considering whether to come forward.

I predicted for months that taxpayers were going to end up paying for the ballroom. That’s because Trump had “pledges” from people to contribute money to pay for it, not checks. Now Republicans have the excuse they need to make us pay for it. “Customs duties” is bs. bsky.app/profile/acyn...

Yeah… I feel this too. Loving your country shouldn’t mean constantly apologizing for what it’s doing.

It was March 23rd. Then March 27th. Then March 30th. Then he gave that weird address on April 1st. new deadline April 4th. Then April 6th at 7 AM. Then April 7th at 8 PM. And now another address tomorrow at 1 PM. The chaos is intentional.

According to the Times:

Ossoff: "The president is sending out fundraising emails featuring photos of service members in flag-draped coffins. It's the most callous & disgraceful disregard for the sacrifice these service members made. It gives the impression the president & his team view those who wear the uniform as pawns"

“They got money for wars, but can’t feed the poor.” — Tupac said it years ago… and here we are. The Pentagon is now asking for an additional $200 BILLION for this war. We always find the money for war. But when it comes to housing, healthcare, or feeding people? Suddenly it’s crickets.

Well, this aged exactly how I was afraid it would

If Jeff Bezos could afford to spend $75 million on the Melania movie & $500 million for a yacht to sail off to his $55 million wedding to give his wife a $5 million ring, please don't tell me he needed to fire one-third of the Washington Post staff. Democracy dies in oligarchy.

Bovino is just the patsy - a noxious and odious fall guy. Stephen Miller is the architect and prime mover of the whole thing. Everything they do is at his direction - often after his threats. As long as he runs policy in the WH, nothing will change no matter how many Bovinos come and go.

Trump is in the Epstein Files. #trumpisintheepsteinfiles #epstein #epsteinsisland

Breaking NYT: The FBI agent who sought to investigate the federal immigration officer who fatally shot Renee Good has resigned from the bureau, according to two people familiar with the matter, after leadership pressured her to discontinue a civil rights inquiry into the officer.

This is sinister. If you're wondering why so many people don't report sexual assault, this is why.

After months of Anti Muslim HATE, the RW HATE machine has zero interest in fact that the hero who disarmed a Bondi Beach shooter & saved lives was Ahmed al Ahmed, a Muslim. When the facts break the RW narrative, they just pretend it didn’t happen. #Voices4Victory #DemVoice1 #USDemocracy #ProudBlue

Amidst all the various threats, unknowns, sturm und drang of our age, is it possible that this ends not with a bang, but with a pandemic? open.substack.com/pub/charlies...

Odd that the DoJ is opening an investigation into the Epstein files since they said in July that there was no client list and nothing to release.

Good grief. This administration is so soft on crime.

I can’t believe I’m watching interviews of city mayors talking about how they are coordinating with other mayors to discuss how to protect their residents FROM THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES I know we are “used to it” but it is absolutely insane

BREAKING A federal judge found it "appears ... that multiple employees of the Department of Justice may have violated" local rules in SDNY guaranteeing Luigi Mangione's right to a fair trial. Full order here storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Reminds me of how the Koch brothers funded the “grass roots” tea party.

Goebbles or Miller?

I think that since the overwhelming majority of mass shooters are cisgender men, we should take their guns first.

Concern over low birth rates was what the theocracy in Margaret Atwood’s Handmaid’s Tale used to come to power.

Tomorrow, Newsom v. Trump goes to trial in a California court with Trump’s power to deploy National Guard troops nationwide despite the Posse Comitatus Act at issue. open.substack.com/pub/joycevan...

I'm starting to think Christian nationalism is a front for pedofiles.

And read her response on air...

NPR has compiled a timeline of when local, state and federal officials posted warnings on social media as well as the timeline of events as presented by local officials.

Shot: “We’re going after and deporting gang members, drug dealers and criminals.” Chaser:

It’s not just that it’s clearly intentional, it’s that it’s clearly intentional knowing that he’s being recorded. They know they can do whatever they want with complete impunity.

L.A. cop took aim and shot a reporter (with her back to him) with a rubber bullet for no other reason than she was a reporter doing her job. She has a solid lawsuit and video evidence! ALL of this is Donald Trump’s planning and fault.

#Trump is checking off each step to his wanna be #dictatorship He has already done 8 out of the 10 without much resistance. I fear the only way to beat him and his cronies is at their own game ~ #SheShed

BREAKING: The United States has tasked Palantir with creating a massive database of all Americans, DHS is taking DNA from migrant children and putting it into criminal database, Trump raises tariffs on steel, and more. A major morning update: open.substack.com/pub/aaronpar...

Kristi Noem incorrectly defined habeas corpus as the president’s right to deport people. Huh? That’s… not even close.

When that second intelligence memo came out that said Tren de Aragua was not a proxy for the Venezuelan government, I was certain someone was going to lose their job. Sure enough.

It’s especially galling that AG Pam Bondi personally wrote the memo approving the gift of the Qatari airplane. Her last job was as a lobbyist for Qatar! efile.fara.gov/docs/6415-Ex...

Our trade deal so far is no tariffs on Rolls Royces and Bentleys and our refugee policy is white South Africans only.
