Defund Science, Distort Culture, Mock Education Itโ€™s not just about cuts to research. Itโ€™s about power.

Nearly all Epstein files still unreleased a month after Congress deadline Over 2 million documents are under DoJ review despite โ€˜legal obligationโ€™ from Epstein Files Transparency Act The law was clear: Donald Trumpโ€™s Department of Justice was required to disclose all investigative files on Jeffrey Epstein by 19 December 2025, with rare exceptions.

@nvwa.bsky.social Al 610 volgers maar nog steeds geen bluesky-account. Dat wordt nu wel eens tijd, mede gezien de onthutsende reportage in de Volkskrant van vandaag over mishandeling van koeien en kalveren tijdens transport.

The Russian government represents Putin and his cronies. Musk represents himself.

๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ฆ๐Ÿ‡ฐ๐Ÿ‡ต A 12-year-old boy from occupied Donetsk and a 16-year-old girl from Simferopol were taken to the Songdowon camp, 9,000 km from home, where they were exposed to militarized training and propaganda.

The question is whatโ€™s in it for Witkoff.

Three things about the Witkoff tapes:

1) It appears Western intelligence services have decided to let Witkoff (and Trump) know they have recordings of their traitorous conversations w/Russia.

2) This Ukraine "deal" was all Witkoff's idea.

3) Congressional leaders should demand he be fired.

Disappeared to a Foreign Prison The Trump Administration is deporting people to countries they have no ties to, where many are being detained indefinitely or forcibly returned to the places they fled. Sarah Stillman reports.

Orville Etoria, a Jamaican national whoโ€™d lived in New York for nearly 50 years, was shackled and put on an ICE flight to Eswatini. โ€œIt helped me imagine how the slaves might have felt, going to another land in shackles and chains,โ€ he said. https://newyorkermag.visitlink.me/dLJ4SQ

Get to know the amazing, brave Mary Bruce, ABC journalist, directly confronting both a sexual abuser and murderer to their faces. #PiggyPOTUS 47 is vile, evil, disgusting. You can judge him by the company he keeps. ๐Ÿท๐Ÿ’ฉ๐Ÿคฌ๐Ÿคฎ

We need more journalists like Mary. We need fewer pigs masquerading as humans.

Zeg, @nosradio1.bsky.social, voor de zoveelste keer hoor ik jullie zeggen: โ€˜het NRCโ€™. NRC is de afkorting van Nieuwe Rotterdamse Courant, dus is zou t voortaan hebben over de NRC.
