somehow Trump appears in Epstein's emails more than Epstein himself

Reporter: Was it your brain?

Trump: I have no idea what they analyzed, but whatever they analyzed, they analyzed it well.

Too few people are talking about the fact that for eight years (2011-2019), while Jeffrey Epstein was raping young girls and trafficking them to hundreds of other rapists from his home base in Palm Beach, Florida, the Florida district attorney was Pam Bondi. Connect the dots.

One ~182km x ~211km solar thermal plant could provide all of Americaโ€™s electricity, including a fully-electrified land transport sector.

100% clean power from just 0.39% of U.S land.

Thatโ€™s why renewables are constantly under attack from the fossil fuel industry and their paid mouthpieces.

53% of Americans believe billionaires are a threat to American democracy.

Meanwhile, just 100 billionaire families spent $2.6 billion on federal elections last year โ€” a 160-fold increase since Citizens United.

The people know: billionaires should not be able to buy our elections.

I just donโ€™t see how we can pretend even for a moment that anything involving our federal government is remotely normal when the president is covering up his involvement in a child sex trafficking ring. Like, what are we doing here

From this minister's op-ed: "People wanting to experience God are more likely to meet the Divine trying to shut down the Broadview, Illinois, ICE facility than we ever were in church...God does not live in our houses of worship, but...with those who are bearing the brunt of cruelty in this moment."

Academics who have advised a graduate student from China over the past years would be banned from federal funding. This would give the federal government one more lever to attack scientists. And how long before they expand the list of "hostile foreign" countries?

The shutdown was an excuse, not a reason, to go after SNAP.

SNAP recipients have to re-apply either every 6 months or year. Onerous process, with almost no fraud.

There are no shutdown-related requirement for SNAP renewal. But it would predictably result in low-income families going hungry.

In normal times, it would be a major scandal for the President to direct his AG to criminally investigate his political opponents to deflect from his own involvement in a major scandal โ€” and for the AG to immediately announce she is doing it. The Epstein scandal and cover up just got even bigger.

There is only one reason Trump directed Bondi to investigate specific names in the Epstein files.

Itโ€™s so the DOJ can stonewall growing calls for their full release.

Not long ago, the DOJ declared there was nothing to investigate.

You are witness to the most blatant coverup in American history.

Most Americans agree we need to get money out of politics. If that takes a constitutional amendment, then that's what we have to do. And if that's going to take years, then it's all the more reason to begin pushing now.

AIPAC (American Israeli Public Affairs Committee) is a right wing fascist lobby group that supports WAR CRIMINAL Netanyahu. Any politician that is even partly supported by the group should be thrown out of office. That includes almost all republicans, and even a few democrats.

Remember: The richest 1% evade over $160 billion in taxes every year.

That amount would fund SNAP for a year with money to spare.

Ed Martin's peculiar view of pardon power Trump's pardon attorney is very confused about how pardons work.

"The problem here is that some of Trumpโ€™s strongest soldiers got jammed up in state court, and neither Trump or Martin can stand the fact Trump canโ€™t reach down and erase those convictions. So Martin is finding creative ways to shred the Constitution."

Want to make America healthy again? Stop fueling climate change From extreme heat to mosquito-borne illnesses, climate change is making people sicker and more vulnerable to disease. Health scientists explain what individuals and governments can do about it.

The Trump administration wants to rescind a 2009 finding that climate change endangers public health.

Physicians and epidemiologists argue the move ignores mounting evidence linking climate change to heat deaths, epidemics, air pollution and mental health crises. buff.ly/Ne2MJ4C
