One-third of the Republicans in Congress: “I didn’t see it.”

Another third: “He was only joking.”

The last third: “I agree with him.”

DHS beat, tackled, shackled, cut, and bruised US citizen Arturo Hermosillo in June. His hands turned blue. They stuffed him in a van and drove him to a station. Yet the agents told him that he was never "arrested," just "detained," ICE's new get-out-of-jail-free word.

Just a reminder that Trump had his attorney general preempt the Mueller Report with a self-serving “summary” and the media ran with it and it defined everything that came after.

Something to remember as we wait for a probably doctored and scrubbed “Epstein Files” report.

Marjorie Taylor Greene has been disliked by the left for years and years and had never had to fear for her life. She's been disliked by the right for 1 day and now has to hire security.

"Things happen" sometimes, like when you walk into an embassy to apply for your marriage license while your bride-to-be waits outside, but then you get bonesawed to pieces for having exercised freedom of speech as an US-based journalist and have to be carried out in a series of suitcases.

Florida first in nation to adopt conservative educational plan from Heritage Foundation Florida schools will follow a conservative educational model under the Phoenix Declaration, developed by the Heritage Foundation.

"Florida's public schools will be the first to follow a conservative educational model developed by a group known for authoring Project 2025, now that the State Board of Education approved a new framework known as the Phoenix Declaration." www.yahoo.com/news/article...

I know we're all used to just taking it for granted that GOP politicians are tied up in kooky far-right church circles, and many of them are, but it's genuinely an outlier for Hegseth to be so into this particular weirdo's tiny extremist sect. He's fringe even for the religious right.

Clyde: Point of order. You may not call the President of the United States a felon

When this happened in Trump’s first administration, Senate Republicans like Lindsay Graham rebuked him and threatened to hold up legislation. Senator Marco Rubio, now the nation’s top diplomat, called for severing US ties with Saudi Arabia over human rights. Press should ask them about it too.

Jim Jordan begged someone to not rat out the sexual assault that was happening at Ohio State. He was crying on the phone. Groveling. This man threw out all his dignity to try and cover for horrifying crimes of sexual abuse. Think about that for a moment.

Trump's line about the murdered Jamal Khashoggi—"A lot of people didn't like that gentleman that you're talking about....Things happen."—is truly heinous. It's evil.

The president of the United States said that. In the nauseatingly gilded Oval Office. Next to the dictator who ordered the killing.

👇👇

ORDERED THE KILLING. IT WAS ONLY IN 2018!!!

I’m going to remind people of the gruesome details, lest this be whitewashed.

Jamal Khashoggi was an Indiana State U educated journalist and editor of a progressive Saudi newspaper and WaPo contributor. He wrote critically of Saudi’s rulers. 1/

MBS stains the White House Trump sells him F-35s and no one seems to remember Jamal Khashoggi

Remember Jamal Khashoggi.
Remember Jamal Khashoggi.

Jesus Christ. This is monstrous. Absolutely sickening. The journalists in that room should walk out en masse.

"things happen"; sometimes people are just randomly dismembered with bone saws. especially journalists who ask me mean questions.

The Saudis paid Trump a lot of money this year for what they got today in the Oval Office.

Bingo.

And imagine the Democratic politician who said this did so as he sat next to the podcaster's assassin whom he reminded everyone was his close personal friend

Trump suggests Khashoggi had it coming: "You're mentioning someone that was extremely controversial. A lot of people didn't like that gentleman that you're talking about. Whether you like him or didn't like him, things happen. But he knew nothing about it. You don't have to embarrass our guest."

Mike Johnson says he will continue working to cover up the Epstein files 👇

Donald Trump Snaps at Female Reporter Who Asks About Epstein Files: 'Quiet Piggy' Donald Trump Says 'Quiet Piggy' to Female Reporter Asking About Epstein Files

…and then the rest of the White House press corps pushed back against the president’s gratuitous insult aimed at one of their colleagues?

Oh wait! There’s no sign that anything like that happened!

Because access beats out solidarity, every day of the week.

There has never been a clearer example of the fact that we do not have a legislature in the United States right now. Trump tells them to vote no, so they all vote no. Then Trump changes his mind and they all change their votes. That is autocracy. Vote them out!

It's the rapist pedophile trump regime, their threats against us and our allies, their illegal ICE gestapo, the guns, the murders, and a number of other things before the illegal trump tariffs.

Yep, Canadians have had our sovereignty threatened, been insulted continuously, our trade agreement ripped up, and observe the horrific ICE terrorism. We don’t buy your goods, don’t travel there and are forming new allies to replace the US. It’s a boycott. There is no question here about why.

White House aggressively posting “trump is straight” content amid the blow job e-mail

This is 100% true- do not trust any social media, keep open various means of contact - back up where possible - read @sarahkendzior.bsky.social books to know why they wanted her off social media

Seriously @jay.bsky.team we had such high hopes you were different. @sarahkendzior.bsky.social ‘s work is essential. The reason for her suspension and your initial refusal to explain why, then lying about her post - garbage.

The end of dollar hegemony will transform U.S. debt from a fiscal drag into a high-yield fusion bomb.

For decades dollarization has generated structural demand for U.S. treasuries, depressing the interest rates the U.S. needs to offer to service its debt.

All of our power structures, from politics to financing to education to the media, are rotten and corrupted, programmed by capitalism to incentivize and reward predation, exploitation, and dehumanization.

It’s not even hidden at this point and it demands wholesale change.

Can the next please dear God can the next interviewer ask MTG about oh I don’t know January 6th etc before we keep pretending she found politics Jesus
