There needs to be a class action suit against RFK, Jr., NIH, and Donald Trump for endangering the lives of Americans with their kooky, unscientific negligence.

Jesus Christ doesn’t care that the Dow crossed 50,000 when people can’t afford food.

“Tell me how you define ‘white identity’?”

Trump nominated Jeremy Carl, a white nationalist with a history of 😵‍💫 posts, to a top post at the State Department.

@senchrismurphy asked him to explain. It didn’t go well for him.

Will Sen. Hagerty vote yes anyway? 🤔

Just like with Brazil arresting their insurrectionists rather than re-electing them, other countries are holding their Epstein-tied politicians accountable far better than we do. www.bbc.com/news/article...

Just wait till Melania finds out about this.

She's gonna be all: "Bad man, I vant another cocktails ring!"

I remember

If Pam Bondi was a waitress.

So two foreign nationals discussed Jared Kushner, a guy who couldn't get security clearance but was able to get $2 billion from Saudi Arabia? And the content of the report is so sensitive that it can't be made public?

Seems like Jared's dad may not wind up being the only felon in the family.

Regulations are what keeps ordinary Americans healthy and, often, alive.

It took spoiled meat and rodent droppings out of our food. It took harmful lead out of our gasoline and paint. It took poison out of our water.

Deregulation only achieves one goal: making rich corporations richer.

The Epstein scandal isn't just about the disgusting sex trafficking of underage girls.

It's also about the rich, powerful men who LIED to us to cover up their involvement.

“It’s ok, Jack. The Dow is over 50,000”

I know this isn't the biggest takeaway, but Pam Bondi claiming that Dow is at "over 50,000 dollars" is pretty funny, as it shows how ignorant she is. The Dow Jones Industrial Average is indexed. The 50,000 doesn't represent dollars. And if I did, the entire Dow couldn't afford a single Land Rover.

A picture is worth a thousand words. How does AG Pam Bondi sleep at night?

one thing that comes across in these clips is that bondi is totally out of her depth. just an absolute lightweight. barely sentient.

The entire ethos of the Trump administration is that nobody who disagrees with them, nobody who fails to support them, is legitimate or entitled to any rights in any way. It is the ethos of thuggish tyranny.

Democrats introduce 'Virginia's Law' alongside Epstein victims Congressional Democrats introduced legislation that they said would eliminate the statute of limitations that has shielded sex traffickers.

“Congressional Democrats introduced legislation on Tuesday that they said would eliminate the statute of limitations that has shielded sex traffickers such as the late financier Jeffrey Epstein.”

The proposal—Virginia's Law—is named after the late Virginia Giuffre: www.reuters.com/world/us/dem...

And I’m sure all the Republicans who so vociferously showed their fake outrage to Jack Smith for obtaining their phone logs will be just as furious about this, right

Right?

Pam Bondi suggests Jewish lesbian lawmaker is anti-Semitic in explosive hearing Vermont Rep. Becca Balint left the room after the head of the Department of Justice was disrespectful and combative as she deflected questions about the Epstein files.

Pam Bondi “is using the fascist authoritarian playbook in the same way that my family was on the receiving end of those same tactics and strategies during the Nazi-era,” Vermont Congresswoman Becca Balint told me in an interview after the unhinged hearing.
