Tell Congress: Demand AG Bondi release ALL of the Epstein files now Contact Congress today!

FACTS. The regime repeatedly broke the law in order to conduct the biggest coverup in American history.

Tell Congress right now: DO YOUR JOBS and demand the DOJ release ALL of the Epstein files.

A big part of the authoritarian playbook is war. War takes over the news. War blots out criticism. War divides a nation’s people, subjecting those against it to being called unpatriotic. War grants leaders all sorts of emergency powers. War consumes everything else.

We mustn’t let this war do so.

world-altering decisions are being made by a cabal of gambling addicts hell bent on self enrichment no matter the cost to humanity, we should look into that.

Screenshot of a post on X by Aaron Reichlin-Melnick (@R…) stating: β€œNEW: Data released by ICE shows that virtually the entire growth of detention in the last few months has been among people with no criminal record at allβ€”no criminal convictions and no pending criminal charges.” Below the text is a line chart titled β€œDetention Population, Among Those Arrested in the Interior, by Criminal Record, May 2019 through January 7, 2026.” The chart shows three linesβ€”prior convictions, pending criminal charges, and no criminal recordβ€”with a sharp rise near the end in the β€œno criminal record” category. The source is listed as U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement.

It’s not about keeping us safe from criminals. This is ethnic cleansing.

This week: we execute a U.S. citizen.

Next week: we take over elections to stop β€œfraud.”

It's so transparent what's going on here.

they didn’t leak it to make the shooter look innocent, but to make the victim look guilty. not guilty of a crime. guilty of having a visibly queer wife. guilty of liberalism. guilty of opposing the regime. they don’t seek to exonerate themselves, only to demonstrate who deserves to die.

recently my friend's comics professor told her that it's acceptable to use gen AI for script-writing but not for art, since a machine can't generate meaningful artistic work. meanwhile, my sister's screenwriting professor said that they can use gen AI for concept art and visualization, but that it won't be able to generate a script that's any good. and at my job, it seems like each department says that AI can be useful in every field except the one that they know best.

It's only ever the jobs we're unfamiliar with that we assume can be replaced with automation. The more attuned we are with certain processes, crafts, and occupations, the more we realize that gen AI will never be able to provide a suitable replacement. The case for its existence lies on our ignorance of the work and skill required to do everything we don't.

the discourse on what jobs are acceptable to replace with generative AI reveals a lot about what we think of other people's jobs

The image is a screenshot of an X post from the account @Re... (Really American) dated 11 hours ago, claiming that Speaker Johnson has refused to swear in newly-elected Democratic Rep. Grijalva, who is described as the decisive 218th vote needed for a discharge petition to release the Epstein files. The post questions the reason for the delay. The image also includes a video still labeled "EXCLUSIVE" from Meidastouch Network, featuring Rep.-elect Grijalva, with text stating she is ready to sign the discharge petition. The background shows campaign materials with her name and slogans like "Se hizo historia!"

They are so afraid of this they won’t seat a newly elected Congresswoman from AZ to keep it from happening.

A stack of physical upgrade disks, which look like old 5.25" floppies with labels stuck on them that read "Floorplan Upgrade Disk". But nobody in their right mind would bother to put any actual data on these prop giveaways, right?

Added some interactivity to my Blue Prince cosplay for San Diego Comic Con. Those who spot me will be invited to draft a room sticker and place it on my blueprint!

Be one of the first to help me assemble a convention-exclusive house layout, and I just might have a floorplan upgrade disk for you.

Walz: "This is how government is supposed to work. It's not supposed to be one old man in the Oval Office sending out middle of the night tweets that shock markets into free fall. It's not supposed to be a bunch of 20 somethings unelected and firing everyone. It's not supposed to be chaos."

Imagine DOGE opens your mail and finds your household electric bill. To eliminate this cost, they burn your house down without warning. Then they total up the bills that, as a homeless person, you will never again pay. On its website, DOGE boasts about the money it has saved you.

It’s a huge mistake for Donald Trump to fire thousands of IRS workers while people are filing their taxes.

But don’t just take my word for it β€” seven former heads of the IRS, including Trump’s first term pick, are ringing the alarm bell.

@raskin.house.gov: "The whole anti-corruption crusade is an absolute fraud. They started by decimating the ranks of the inspectors general. These are the people whose job is actually, day in and day out, 365 days a year, to ferret out waste, fraud and abuse in the departments and the agencies."

JFK Library in Dorchester temporarily closed due to workers' β€˜sudden dismissal.’ National Archives says it will reopen Wednesday - The Boston Globe β€œThe sudden dismissal of federal employees at the JFK Library forced the museum to close today,” the JFK Library Foundation said in a statement.

President Trump is firing American workers who monitor bird flu outbreaks, safeguard nuclear facilities, and now those who promote American history in Dorchester – all to help pay for tax breaks for billionaires and giant corporations.

When ordered by Nazis to give lists of disabled people by disability severity, some doctors sent back exaggerated data to protect patients from forced work

They didn't know that the "most disabled" were to be killed first

The moral here isn't to tell the truth

It's to never co-operate with Nazis

Elon Musk posted these two tweets the same day, just hours apart. Don’t sugarcoat it β€” he’s not just a far-right authoritarian, he’s an outright fascist.
