Epstein victim Virginia Giuffre: “I was trafficked to a lot of types of different men — billionaires, royalty… he used me as a form of blackmail so these people would owe him favors.”

We can't fall into right-wing populism’s lie that the most vulnerable in society are to blame for wealth inequality in our countries. We need to build movements that tell the truth: the story of wealth inequality is not a cultural one, but a class one.

UTAH - Wasatch County Republican Party Chair David Johnson arrested for allegedly “waterboarding” a teen girl for not cleaning her room.

She also had bruising, and says he did it to other kids. Released on $10,000 bail.

Hey everyone. Potentially the biggest story in the country, right here. substack.com/home/post/p-...

So lying “economist” Peter Navarro is just as stupid as Pamela Jo Bondi? The Dow Jones is not “the stock market.” And it is indexed—the 50,000 doesn’t stand for $50,000.

Trump insider Tom Barrack kept in regular contact with Jeffrey Epstein for years, files show Tom Barrack, a top U.S. diplomat and longtime friend of President Trump, networked and socialized with Epstein for years, CBS News found.

Still alive. We should ask him questions.

A key topic at @munsecconf.bsky.social: Ukraine. I joined Yulia Navalnaya, Thordis Kolbrun Gylfadottir, and Benjamin Haddad for a conversation with Ali Aslan about where the conflict stands.

I believe the attempt to force Ukraine to agree to a capitulation agreement with Putin is a disgrace.

thats an attack ad

If you think there’s NOTHING in our heritage (or in any nation’s) to be unapologetic about, you’re a fool. A dangerous fool.

Donald Trump’s mental decline has gotten worse.Why is the media only barely starting to report on it?And why won’t they Has Donald Trump Finally Lost It?

Donald Trump’s mental decline has gotten worse.

Why is the media only barely starting to report on it?

And why won’t they ask who’s really making the decisions in the White House? https://youtu.be/NQHLciC67V8?si=uoJIQXi5JIEJvac-

If we don’t want to repeat history – then for God’s sake in this moment we better be strong enough to learn from it.

If this country was truly “pro-life,” we would have Medicare for All, a Green New Deal, gun reform, universal child care, and a living wage.

The right-wing agenda isn’t about “life.”

It’s about control.

CHARLAMAGNE: “Trump went platinum in the Epstein files.”

It’s not too late for states and Congress to stop Trump from subverting the midterms With only nine months before the midterm elections, Trump is plotting to prevent Democrats from taking control of Congress.

Battle of the Bulge Episode 6: Patton’s Army on the Move This one was personal: I had people in Patton’s Third Army and heard stories about the Battle of the Bulge and Bastogne as a kid, but it’s only with this series the pieces are falling into place.

My law firm is now litigating 85 voting and election cases in 40 states. This is the largest number of cases in the most states we have ever handled at one time. And, while Big Law firms mostly sit idly by, the need to protect elections in court is only growing.

This week at Democracy Docket: The worst voter suppression bill ever passed, and an FBI raid built on conspiracy theories When the U.S. House passed the SAVE Act last year, historians told us it was Congress' worst attack on voting rights ever. Well, this week the House approved an even worse one.

The heads of Amazon, Alphabet, Meta, and Tesla all joined Trump at his inauguration.

Since then, largely thanks to Trump's Big Ugly Bill, their companies have reaped $51B in federal tax breaks — paid for by huge cuts to our social safety net.

This is what oligarchy looks like.

The New York Times reports that the Department of Homeland Security has sent Google, Meta, and other media corporations subpoenas for the names on accounts that criticize ICE enforcement. The department wants to identify Americans who oppose what it’s doing. I’ll save them time.

This was yet another week of Trump ruling on behalf of the so-called Epstein Class.

But it was also a week that featured extraordinary pushback and solidarity against his regime.

Join us as we break down the week that was.

My father died 10 years ago today. I still miss him. He was a good man. He was a loving husband and father. He was loyal and kind to his friends. He contributed to his community. Ed Reich would have loathed Donald Trump. https://robertreich.substack.com/p/sunday-thought-my-father-and-the

Someone has sure already made this observation but the fact they can convert all those empty warehouses into prison camps means they could have converted them into housing, community centers, job training centers or, hell, libraries or schools all along. It’s always a matter of will not resources.

Heather Cox Richardson had a meaningful letter this #Valentine's_Day, After I replied "how odd it is that marking love and caring Feb 14 is so commercialized and customarily thought of as just for couples and little kids", I thought I should share my 2011 Valentine poem (with graphics.)
