Wonder how sexual predator Brett Kavanaugh and sexual predator Clarence Thomas will vote on the fate of sexual predator Ghislaine Maxwell.

In the United States, there are religious colleges who teach that homosexuality is wrong and students who become pregnant can be run off campus. Those schools get federal funds. This is somehow protected from regulation, but secular private institutions can’t treat trans students like human beings.

What are they hiding? You don’t get to slam the door on a Member of Congress during a routine ICE visit. I’ve toured this facility beforeβ€”so why am I suddenly a β€œsecurity risk”? My team requested permission. They had no right to deny us. They’re clearly afraid of accountability.

would bet that a healthy part of Trump's tariff calculus is to change the story from Epstein.

But it's all part of the pattern of obscenely rich men treating everybody else like playthings.

The Boy Genius Who Killed 14 Million Poor People What is the moral weight of responsibility for the men who carried out DOGE’s work?

"Before January 2025 there had been noβ€”zero, zilchβ€”interest in killing off USAID. It wasn't something Trump ran on. It wasn't envisioned in Project 2025. It was only once Elon Musk decided that USAID was evil that destroying the agency became a policy goal for the Republican party."

Wall Street Journal headline and deck: "New York Shooting Puts Mamdani on the Spot Over Policing Views: The killing of four people in a Midtown office building rattled a city where mass attacks are rare and violent crime has declined."

It's really weird to demand accountability from a NYC mayoral candidate for a deadly NYC shooting rather than the current NYC mayor, an ex-cop who campaigned on a "tough on crime" platform and promptly got indicted for crimes

Palestinian children have been killed at a rate of more than one child per hour during Israel's war in Gaza.

β€œA whole classroom of children killed every day for nearly two years,” UNICEF’s executive director said.

May @cortezmasto.senate.gov @senjackyrosen.govpeeps.us @schumer.senate.gov be called out for every cruel and lawless ruling Bove makes. Yes GOP voted him in, but @jeannesheahan.bsky.social helped him thru committee and the above 3 kept a federal judicial seat open when Dems were in MAJORITY.

@cortezmasto.senate.gov & @senjackyrosen.govpeeps.us, do you regret voting with Republicans to spike the highly qualified judicial nominee Judge Mangi, a Muslim American nominated by Biden who was subjected to a racist smear campaign?

Let us all know, please. This is why we have Emil Bove.

Senate, Rejecting Whistle-Blower Alarms, Confirms Bove to Appeals Court

Let's not forget that this seat was vacant because Islamaphobic Democrats wouldn't let Biden's appointee be confirmed. And Schumer let the clock run out.

One fascinating thing about the most self-serious newspaper in America with its staff of the winning journalistic meritocrats is that it routinely, institutionally publishes completely made-up bullshit speculation about pure abstractions, based on zero reporting, written as if it were plain facts

"For the last time, I didn't know anything about Jeffrey Epstein's pedophilia ring, we were just best friends for over a decade and then finally had a falling out when he stole this seventeen-year-old blonde girl from me. I trust that settles it."

gosh it’s almost like the goyish pols who spent the last several months falsely accusing a Muslim socialist of being antisemitic out of affected concern for Jewish safety were in fact the ones engaging in blatant antisemitism and bigotry

The extremely simple fact is that Jeff Epstein was the most notorious child sex trafficker in history, and the President of the US was his close personal friend for decades

Acting like this is complicated is absurd. The man knew what Epstein did, didn't care, and participated
