AOC: The Pentagon has not passed an audit, and they are out here trying to kick people with disabilities off of Medicaid. It is corruption that is stealing from the public coffers β€” and that is the actual waste, fraud, and abuse.

The lack of media coverage about the bombing of the girls elementary schools is shocking.

KLOBUCHAR: Alex Pretti's parents said what you said was one of the most hurtful things they could imagine. Do you want to say anything to Alex's parents?

NOEM: I did not call him a 'domestic terrorist.' I said it 'appeared to be an incident of'

KLOBUCHAR: I think the parents saw it for what it was

I miss having a president who treated people with basic human decency and could communicate clearly and coherently.

For satire to work, it must either be so outrageous as to make us take pause or it must be rooted in truth. I believe this is satire rooted in truth.

Know who's not afraid of releasing the Epstein files?
Bill Clinton.
He and Hillary keep saying to release them all and the the truth come out.

A win! A federal judge has instructed the Interior Department to restore signage and video exhibits at George Washington’s former Philadelphia residence that explain his ownership of enslaved people.

The night sky captured during the waves of an aurora, the stars are visible through a blood red sky. To the right of the image a hint of green.

Come, gentle night; come,
loving black-brow'd night.
Give me my Romeo: and when he shall die,
Take him and cut him out in little stars,
And he will make the face of heaven so fine,
That all the world will be in love with night

Rand Paul to ICE officials on Pretti's killing: "Because people within the government made conclusions immediately that he was a terrorist and an assassin, people aren't believing that it's gonna be an honest investigation ... there has to ultimately be repercussions ... it's inexcusable."

Rep. Delia Ramirez to DHS officials: "I have as much respect for you as I do for the last white men who put on masks to terrorize communities of color. I have no respect for the inheritors of the Klanhood and the slave patrol. Those activities were criminal and so are yours."

Textbook. If you are surprised, it is because this shit usually, at least not in the last 150 years, does not happen in the US. And the past is mild in comparison

Mamdani: "I speak of Renee Good, whose final words to the man who murdered her were, 'I'm not mad at you.' I speak of Alex Pretti who died as he lived, caring for the stranger. ICE shot him bc he did something they could never fathom ... let us offer a new path: one of defiance through compassion."

Luttig: It doesn’t matter what the Supreme Court does from this point forward. For two years, the Supreme Court has authorized the absolute lawlessness and unconstitutional activity of this president.

I wake up every morning hoping the tv will have a special report telling us this nightmare is over. We have two things in our favor. One he’s not healthy, and two, he’s old. And I’m glad that I’m young enough to see that day. πŸ”„

Screenshot of an X post by Rep. Ro Khanna (name truncated, 11h) saying he is calling for Congress to haul in every person who emailed Epstein about visiting his island and that he will not rest until those who committed crimes are held accountable. Below is a video thumbnail of Khanna speaking at a podium on the House floor, with a lower-third identifying him as β€œREP. RO KHANNA (D) CALIFORNIA.”

Rep. Ro Khanna is a fiery torch in this bleak moral darkness.

Murphy on Fox News Sunday: "I mean -- c'mon. We're still pretending that ICE is going after dangerous people? They aren't. What is happening in Minnesota right now is a dystopia. ICE is teargassing elementary schools, it is disappearing legal residents into cars, it is murdering American citizens."

Buttigieg on Fox News: "When you see an American woman opening the door to her home and on her doorstep finds half a dozen federal agents in tactical gear that is more tricked out than what I would take outside the wire in Afghanistan -- I think most people get that that is wrong."

I've been watching the news and reading the Internet for weeks -

When do millions of us march to Washington, drag all these criminals that have subverted our Constitution out of our buildings, deal with them roughly and restart our Democracy?

It is up to us folks, no-one is going to save us.
