Ghislaine Maxwell’s father’s sense of privilege that the rules didn’t apply to him was the education his daughter absorbed and she treated others as objects to be used, ruined and thrown away like a broken toy. She should serve her term at original prison. #Epsteinfiles #Trump

Ghislaine Maxwell is a criminal and the daughter of a criminal. Her father Robert Maxwell stole like 350 million pounds sterling from his company’s pension fund and left people who had worked there for decades high and dry. (Comment continues in first comment)

Election Day was a win for the climate The results were a clear repudiation of the Trump administration's corrupt energy policies.

Tuesday was a great day at the ballot box for the planet, with climate-friendly initiatives and candidates winning nationwide.

The research being done on autoimmune diseases is so exciting, sad that Trump has cut so much funding for research and goofy RFK Jr. in charge. Maybe some of the 1% of wealthy Americans can step in to make up this gap in research funding.

Yes, Trump's tariffs are raising billions -- but at a steep economic cost Trump's tariffs are raising tens of billions of dollars for the federal government. They're also costing consumers, frustrating businesses and hurting the factories they're supposed to help.

Thanks for nothing #Trump and his stupid illegal #Tariffs (Congress never even got a chance to approve) and thanks for nothing to #RepublicanParty for supporting this bullshit and thanks for nothing to #Congress for doing nothing.

Excellent!

As Mamdani Surges Ahead, Schumer Risks Finding Himself Left Behind

Sorry but it’s way past time for Schumer to step down and that’s nothing to do with Mamdani. Schumer stopped taking any positions or pushing back a while ago, too concerned about being agreeable rather than taking a stand. #ChuckSchumer

How brilliant is this, well done Colorado.

Voters might not be happy with the Democratic Party, but this election proves that they know good Democratic candidates and messaging when they see them, and they’ll show up.

Grow this energy for 2026!

That Texas gerrymander isn’t looking so smart anymore, now is it?

Oops.

Opinion | When ICE came for a U.S. citizen and Army veteran George Retes is suing the federal government for unconstitutional detention.

George F Will: One ICE agent’s knee was on his neck, another’s was grinding his back. Drenched with tear gas and pepper spray, George Retes might have wished that his 137 pounds were back in Kirkuk, Iraq, one of his Army deployments. Herewith a glimpse of your tax dollars at work under Trump.

Wow - this is well worth a read if you missed it.
