People keep suggesting this war is about hiding what's in the files rather than being entirely in character with and indicative of the callous disregard for life and wellbeing of the vulnerable you can expect to find in the files.

It's not 8 dimensional chess. He's just a global tier dickhead.

Americans live in a country where the leader can order the murder of anyone he wants, and doesn’t even need to explain why. The rule of law is gone. Republicans killed it.

Trump Has No Plan for the Iranian People The mere act of bombing Iran will not by itself create a stable regime.

The American bombardment of Iran has been launched without explanation, without Congress, without public support. Above all it has been launched without a coherent strategy for the Iranian people, and without a plan to let them build a legitimate Iranian state.

’Tis the time’s plague, when madmen lead the blind.

“If you’re experiencing respiratory failure or diabetic ketoacidosis, you have a 50/50 chance of this AI telling you it’s not a big deal...If someone is told to wait 48 hours during an asthma attack or diabetic crisis, that reassurance could cost them their life.”

The Epstein files document what many women researchers have long experienced but rarely seen laid bare so starkly: exclusion operating behind closed doors, shaping who gets funded, invited, mentored, and taken seriously. How many of these networks, norms, and gatekeepers remain in place?

That is the world the Zionist #Epstein class criminal network has created. These people neeð to be urgently removed everywhere.

The richest man owns X.

The second and third richest men control Google.

The fourth richest man owns Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp.

The fifth richest man owns The Washington Post.

And now the sixth richest could soon take over both Paramount and Warner Bros.

See the problem here?

Here’s a thought for James Comer.

There IS a First Lady who has had a relationship with Jeffrey Epstein. And it’s not Hillary Clinton.

It might be worthwhile for Comer to subpoena the First Lady who actually knows Epstein.

You know, just to see what she knows.

Indiana peeps: there’s something really bad going around. I’ve had conscientious students miss three classes from high fever and bad cough. One fainted while standing (not in class!). At least two students have tested positive for flu and another for COVID. Take care!

Federal grand juror on her experiences over last 1.5 yrs. In my experience w/the Epstein files, I found the evidence presented to be credible and believable. There are evil people in the world who are wired differently & are this depraved. These things really do happen-made her sick to her stomach.

Al Green didn’t last long.

He’s a national treasure 🔥❤️🔥

South Carolina seeks non-CDC reinforcements to contain growing measles outbreak A dozen public health experts are arriving in South Carolina to help the state contain the largest U.S. measles outbreak in more than 30 years, but they're not coming from the Centers for Disease Cont...

South Carolina has requested urgent assistance with handling the measles outbreak there.

They did not request it from RFK Jr.’s moribund CDC, but rather the CDC Foundation, which is a nonprofit that is independent of the U.S. government.

RFK Jr. continues to do NOTHING about this outbreak.

Scoop: DNC officials working on secret report found Gaza stance cost Harris votes The DNC's research on what went wrong in 2024 has been under lock and key since party leaders decided to hide it from the public.

Top Democratic officials who worked on the party's still-secret autopsy of the 2024 election concluded that Kamala Harris lost significant support because of the Biden administration's approach to the war in Gaza, Axios has learned.

The floor plan for the planned ICE concentration camp in Social Circle, Georgia:

As an architect, this is so fucking bleak. Someone in my profession is taking a hefty design fee to draw these plans.

This is a modern day concentration camp and the design professionals involved should be named and shamed.

This is a child trafficking regime.

People ask me "why kelp is important". There's not enough space for all the reasons here but big reasons are that kelp can grow faster than any other any species fixing CO2, providing shelter and food. Urchins eat kelp plus they're "messy" eaters so they feed other species nearby.

Also, “The IG’s office is investigating a complaint that *Ms* Chavez-DeRemer was having a sexual relationship with a subordinate—a member of her security detail—and abusing her office by taking staff to strip clubs, drinking alcohol on the job and taking personal trips at taxpayer expense.”

All four?

Surprise ICE warehouse could house up to 10,000 detainees for months at a time, new documents show After weeks of speculation about what the 400,000-square-foot warehouse in Surprise might be used for, the documents confirm it will be retrofitted as an ICE detention center, potentially housing 7,00...

Stacy Bradley voted for President Trump because of his border policies, and she likes that he has restored “law and order.” But she is unsettled by one aspect of his immigration agenda. Last month, the federal government bought a warehouse next to her cheerleading gym in Surprise, Ariz., which the administration plans to convert into a detention center for up to 1,500 immigrants. Ms. Bradley, the co-owner of Woodlands Elite Cheer, said she worried that a detainee could escape, or that protests could break out. The children who train at her gym are as young as 3 and could see “people in shackles” next door, she said.

“my children might see the children I voted to put in shackles, how shall they grow up”
