Bowser: "If people are concerned about a president's ability have the MPD be responsive to the DOJ, the time to address that is when we're talking about statehood for DC."

Have I mentioned I have a story in this anthology AND I’ll be doing two live events for the launch??

WELL.

Come see me I am SO DAMN EXCITED!

Democrats Call Out Trump Administration Over ‘Terrifying’ New Reports In a letter shared with HuffPost, the Democratic Women’s Caucus urged DHS to mandate ICE agents to “visibly and clearly identify themselves" when making arrests.

Trump regime refuses to unmask ICE agents to facilitate more assaults & rapes of women in America. The first non-drug related crime spree initiated & supported by a United States president in US history.

I'll buy dinner at the restaurant of their choice to the first reporter who asks: "In cleaning up this city, what are the chances that you and your team think they'll find the Epstein Files?"

Good thing we got married in a blue state that I am never ever leaving for any reason

Bowser: "Chief Pamela Smith is the chief of the Metropolitan Police Department. And its 3,100 members work under her direction."

The military takeover of Washington is not a “distraction” from Epstein. It’s a military takeover of Washington, which is an even bigger deal, and those of us who kill brain cells reporting on this stuff knows it’s been an explicit goal since before the election.

Senator Smith asking the right question

For everyone not listening. The president of the United States 🇺🇸 just said he is taking over the cities and sending troops into all the cities and getting rid of all the slums. So he is dragging all the poor families out of their homes and sending them where? Concentrate camps?

This monster is evil.

Goats are so silly... 👀😅🤣 #bluesky

As scary a press conference as I have ever seen

Completely divorced from reality or anything that has to do with criminal justice or reality or American democracy

Image of an eye on a starry night sky with text that says “Embrace imposter syndrome. Revel in the fact you have fooled everyone. You are a Trickster Goddess.

I don’t know who needs this today, but here you go..

So, it’s been a minute…but here’s a brand new starter pack. Sending love and sunshine your way.

Reporter: The president threatened to use not just the National Guard but the military.

Bowser: I think I speak for all Americans, we don't believe it is legal to use the American military against American citizens on American soil.

Nothing about what happened today was normal. But it's not enough to say that. It must clearly be said that what just happened doesn't happen in a democracy. America is now on the autocracy scale—and those responsible for this won't turn back.

The question is what we do now.

Options are dwindling.

Every Democratic state that can do this, should do this.

Then, when we control the levels of power in DC, we ban gerrymandering for the entire country. Once and for all. Everyone playing by the same rules.

Hochul: “This is what I call a legal insurrection… They know they’re going to lose next year, and that’s the only reason they’re doing this. Maybe it’s also a convenient distraction — because when did this suddenly happen? Right when they refused to release the Epstein files.”

Doesn’t deploy federal troops to stop a Capitol invasion or save children from a Texas flood or clean up debris from a StL tornado.

Deployed federal troops to disperse people in sleeping bags.

Got it.

GOP: the second amendment protects us from tyranny

Also GOP: YAY! Federal troops are being sent to control DC!

GOP: we support the free market!

Also GOP: it’s fine that NVIDIA and AMD are being illegally forced to pay 15% to the government to sell their products in China.

The more you think about it, when Trump said Epstein liked women "on the younger side" it was pretty much a confession.
