“I Lost Everything”: Venezuelans Were Rounded Up in a Dramatic Midnight Raid but Never Charged With a Crime Authorities said Tren de Aragua “terrorists” had taken over the building. A ProPublica investigation found little evidence to back up the government’s claims. For the first time, the Venezuelans arres...

"300 agents stormed the building, rappelled from a helicopter, knocked down doors and hurled flash-bang grenades. Agents ziptied and detained many US citizens for hours..."

Prosecutors have not filed a *single* criminal charge against anyone arrested that night:

Here is Trump when he owned the Miss Universe and Miss Teen USA pageants bragging about how he “was able to get away with” going backstage when contestants were naked since he was the boss and he had to do “inspections.”

This is so so disturbing. Trump is now pardoning January 6th rioters for unrelated crimes, just to reward them for their violence to keep him in power.

The Republican Party is in the full time business of endorsing and incentivizing political violence. So scary.

Here are Bannon and Epstein in a series of texts that appear to be celebrating the murder of Jamal Khashoggi as perpetrated by MbS, who of course was with Epstein in Paris a few months before.

Ghislaine Maxwell lied about Trump never going to Epstein's house (directly contradicted by her email correspondence with Epstein), and she was rewarded for that lie with a transfer to a cushier prison. The coverup is happening in plain sight.

They’re panicking inside the White House.
There’s an emergency meeting today as aides scramble over a potential House vote to release the Epstein files.

Epstein names Trump in an email.
The DOJ is still hiding the rest.

Jeffrey Epstein emails Peter Thiel about meeting and hanging out with Woody Allen:

Epstein: any interest in Woody Allen?
Thiel: Would be cool to meet him sometime, but don't go out of the way to make this happen... Are we planning something the weekend of the 13th-14th?

The president of the united states is a pedophile rapist who was best buddies with Jeffrey Epstein and spent hours with an underage victim at Epstein's home. Now he's currently huddled in the situation room directing a cover up about it like it's a seal team 6 operation. Do I have that right?

She called local churches, a mosque (who said yes A.SA.P.) to see if they would help feed a hungry baby. The answers, if anything, we're shocking!

Most said no; 8 said yes (or of ~30).

🚨 The shutdown isn’t over. The Senate vote was a procedural step, not a deal. Nothing is reopening. Nothing is fixed. Eight Democrats helped move an old GOP bill while families go unpaid and SNAP stays frozen.
