It is absolutely wild that the guy who wonβt stop yelling about law and order is now personally stepping in to keep January 6 documents hidden from the police officers who were attacked that day. He knows exactly whatβs in those files and he is terrified the country will see it.

22 illegal US military boat strikes have killed at least 87 people, yet the Trump administration won't provide its justification. Americans deserve to see the evidence supporting this violence. Transparency isn't optional when lives are lost. Release the memo now! #NoForeverWars

They're using the confinement box, one of the most horrific methods of CIA torture in the post-9/11 black sites, against migrants now. This is the direct result of the lack of consequences for the architects of the torture program. Either there will be criminal penalties for this or it will expand.

What if we all just start calling our representatives and the White House and any other associated government agencies demanding the release of the Epstein Files? We could also boycott all Trump donors until they release the files. We must make it known beyond social media that we are done waiting.

The Supreme Court, Presidency, Senate and two party system are all quite anti-democratic institutions as presently constructed.
Our institutions are not only incapable of preventing tyrannyβtheyβre currently enabling it.
When democracy returns, we need to reform our political system.

If you're in the White House press corps, still showing up to your job every day and not saying anything as Trump attacks your colleagues -- almost always women, I'd add -- then this is on you as well.
