Think about this: at nearly the same time, Pam Bondi was refusing to answer whether the FBI had images of Trump and young girls obtained from Jeffrey Epstein’s safe, and Mike Johnson was refusing to answer when he would swear in Adelita Grijalva, who would be the 218th vote for the Epstein petition.

Um, ICE just coldly shot an unarmed PRIEST in the head w a pepper ball when he (and everyone around him) clearly posed no threat.

For the crime of … complaining about government policy.

With cameras rolling, they’re sniping priests for sport.

Took a break from recuperating in bed to talk to Kickstarter workers who are currently on strike.

Before I left, I asked for them to share cat pics with me and they have delivered. Cuba is wonderful.

While critics try to paint Chicago as something to fear, the rest of the world knows the truth — this is the best big city in America.

A screenshot of an X.com post by @AdelitaForAZ , Adelita Grijalva, stating, "The people of Southern Arizona deserve representation and I'm ready to get to work. Swear me in NOW! @SpeakerJohnson !" followed by a reply from @GavinNewsom , Gavin Newsom, saying, "It's not even November and the GOP are already rigging elections." Below, a news headline from McClatchy by Nikki McCann Ramirez dated September 30, 2025, reads, "DEM SAYS MIKE JOHNSON IS DELAYING HER SWEARING-IN TO PREVENT EPSTEIN VOTE," with a photo of Adelita Grijalva smiling at an event in Tucson, Arizona, on Tuesday, September 23, 2025.

This is the Epstein files shutdown.

This strikes me as pretty bad

Country legend Zach Bryan has released a song that puts country over his own bank account.

The backlash from country fans will be massive- they’ll force him off country radio like they did to the Dixie Chicks but he doesn’t need radio access anymore

Two years after the October 7 Hamas terrorist attack on Israel, let us pray for the return of all the remaining hostages, for all of the Israeli and Palestinian lives lost, and for a lasting end to the war.

At least 67,000 Palestinians and more than 1,100 Israelis have been killed since October 7, 2023.

Today, I call on our elected officials, once again, to block all military aid to Israel and push for an end to this genocide.

California continues to make history: the first proclamation in our state issued in braille.

The image they shared showed riot police and a crowd with flares and red smoke, designed to support Trump's claim that Portland's protests were out of control, but was actually a digital composite of two unrelated photographs from different South American countries.

Pam Bondi just reminded us that she's part of the Jeffrey Epstein cover up Tuesday's Senate hearing gave us even more proof

Pam Bondi just reminded us that she's part of the Epstein cover up. Bondi's defensiveness/evasive at Tuesday's Senate hearing when asked about Epstein is what prosecutors call consciousness of guilt. Bondi is guilty of being part of cover up. My article: deanobeidallah.substack.com/p/pam-bondi-...
