BREAKING: The DOJ has explained there is a perfectly reasonable explanation for dozens of Epstein files related to Donald Trump going missing. That reason is if they didn't go missing, they would incriminate Donald Trump.

🤷🏼

Breaking: The Trump-appointed Judge Aileen Cannon has permanently blocked the release of special counsel Jack Smith's report on the classified documents case — saying releasing the report would be unfair to Trump and his co-defendants.

The AI surveillance state is real — and it's being built by Palantir. The Most Dangerous Corporation in America?

Billions of your tax dollars are going to Palantir — and the police state it's helping Trump build could soon be used against you.

According to Castro, there are 8 pregnant women at Dilley right now.

“In many ways, the Dilley detention center has gotten worse since my visit 3 weeks ago. “ “They’re hiding pregnant women from me (they aren't getting good medical care),”—Rep. Joaquin Castro.

Charles M. Blow (@charlesmblow) This is what voter suppression looks like in Georgia where I vote. I had never had to wait in line to vote until I moved to Atlanta. The fact that so many Black people in the state still vote is a mon...

When oligarchs talk of “personal liberties and free markets” they mean their own liberties to become even richer and more powerful.

When oligarchs speak of “freedom,” what they actually seek is freedom from accountability.

Know the truth.

Texas has always allowed this

‘Don’t go to the US – not with Trump in charge’: the UK tourist with a valid visa detained by ICE for six weeks Karen Newton was in America on the trip of a lifetime when she was shackled, transported and held for weeks on end. With tourism to the US under increasing strain, she says, ‘If it can happen to me, i...

'She has a message for other tourists considering a trip to America: “Don’t go – not with Trump in charge. It’s totally out of control over there. There’s no accountability. They don’t seem to need a reason for detaining you.”'

The US is speedrunning national decline, and somehow the loudest people still think the problem is “wokeness” or “civility" and not the greedy billionaire parasites who leech government resources, exploit tax breaks, and rig the system to enrich themselves at everyone else’s expense.

More of this, please. The folks in this grassroots group are heroes.

Haven Watch lives by the promise, “No One Walks Alone.” Day or night, they show up. When people are released from ICE detention, volunteers meet them in the cold, disoriented, and exhausted.

Beautiful and devastating all at once.

The disastrous Citizens United decision empowered Donald Trump to make billions from the Oval Office while enriching his donors and bent Congress to serve private interests instead of working people.

@ossoff.bsky.social is spot-on.

They put on glasses and a suit to try and look human

Since October, federal courts have ruled more than 4,400 times that ICE is illegally jailing immigrants.

Now the agency wants to spend $38B to turn warehouses across the country into detention camps.

Remember that some of Trump's biggest supporters are private prison companies running these camps.

There’s only 1 person in Congress who doesn’t trade stocks, doesn’t take corporate PAC money, and has a public schedule. That’s me. And it should be the standard.

History teaches us that the greatest harms often begin with the quiet acceptance of the unacceptable. I have seen where that road leads, and I will not walk it again without resistance.

Jesse Jackson appeared on Sesame Street in 1973.

During his appearance, he led a group of children in reciting his well-known poem “I Am Somebody,” a message focused on self-worth and empowerment

The segment became one of the most memorable celebrity appearances from the early seasons of the show.

Mine is Jeremy Irons documentary on the Hittites

We always considered him and honorary Texan

It was meant for disabled and during COVID lock down. So many seem to be lazy and want others to wait on them

He did warn us

I never thought I’d see the day.

Americans being told by the rest of the world to fight for our own democracy.

We should never have gotten here.

Keep resisting. ✊🏽

Sick of their disgusting ads. Fvck both of them.

Anti-Islam rhetoric takes over Texas GOP primaries As the GOP and its factions debate what constitutes American identity, opposition to Islam has become a key campaign pillar for some Texas Republicans in statewide races and beyond.
