Our story @chicagotribune.com: Chicago teen Ofelia Torres, whose father was detained by ICE while she fought cancer, dies. www.chicagotribune.com/2026/02/14/c...

CHILLING: In 2009, Alfredo Rodriguez, butler to Jeffrey Epstein, allegedly tried to sell Epstein’s “little black book” for $50K.
He described disturbing details of the sex trafficking operations and underage girls — unaware he was speaking to the FBI.
And yet the network operated for many 1/2

Fred we're all so sorry for your loss. By all rights Jaime should still be with you.

For those unaware, a quick primer on perhaps the most dangerous of the oligarchs.

Peter Thiel.

This is what a rigged economy looks like.

Moskowitz: By the president’s own metrics, what accomplishments does Noem have?

• She’s holding up 200 miles of border wall.
• She’s deported fewer people than Obama.
• She’s not helping any of these red-state governors with their disasters.

Why hasn’t he fired her?

Raskin: What makes somebody a good lawyer?

You have to identify with the people who are the victims of injustice — not with their perpetrators.

So I would say to Pam Bondi: If you’re going to stand with the victimizers and not the victims, then you’re not a real lawyer.

Medicare for All would save $450B a year.

Every dollar spent on food stamps generates $1.50-$1.80 in economic activity.

Each dollar going to low-wage workers adds $1.20 to the economy overall.

It’s not about what this country can or can’t afford.

It’s about priorities.

Since 1989, nearly all net job growth in America has occurred under Democratic presidents — about 97% of the 52 million jobs created.

That’s not spin. That’s the data.

@jakubkrupa.bsky.social does it again.

@barackobama.bsky.social: "When I was POTUS, I suppose I could have simply unilaterally ordered the military to go into some red state and harass and intimidate a governor or cut off funding for states that didn't vote for me... but that is contrary to how I think our democracy is supposed to work."

…she will make sure they vote for “the right leaders?”

Trump: ‘There will be Voter I.D. for the Midterm Elections, whether approved by Congress or not!’ "I have searched the depths of Legal Arguments not yet articulated or vetted on this subject, and will be presenting an irrefutable one in the very near future," wrote Trump, who is not a lawyer.

NEW: Trump suggested he would issue an executive order that imposes a photo ID requirement for voting, mandates proof of citizenship for registration and bans mail voting ahead of the midterms if the Senate fails to pass the SAVE America Act.

Zorro Ranch: The property was valued for tax purposes for 2023 at $21.1 million, but representatives of the LLC protested, and court records show in Dec 2024, the Santa Fe County assessor determined the value of the property for tax purposes to be just $13.4 million for tax year 2023. #Huffines

None of this is ok. There can be no future without justice for survivors. Without punishment of your most powerful criminals. God has zero faith in your elected fascists and corporatist cronies to do any of this. Your defiance of their complicity is our only hope.

So glad this man is one of my Senators. I believe him. We will stop trump. Thank you Senator Raphael Warnock! 💙

The kids are alright

The system is rigged — and Trump wants to keep it that way because his own power depends on it.

What drives Trump is simple: he cares more about protecting the interests of those with power than those with none.

So when he and his regime lash out about Epstein, understand why.

What kind of Cabinet is this anyway‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬👎👎👎👎👎

Most of this Cabinet is just profoundly stupid, and those who are not, are just profoundly evil.

Lieu plays Bondi the infamous clip of Trump & Epstein partying together & asks her if there were underaged girls at any party the two attended

"This is so ridiculous," Bondi says. "There's no evidence that Donald Trump has committed a crime"

"I believe you just lied under oath," Lieu replies

WE FOUND THE WASTE, FRAUD, AND ABUSE.

Nope! I don’t want my tax dollars funding DHS brutality, and I definitely don’t want it paying for Kristi Noem and Corey Lewandowski to jet-set around the country and fuck in a private cabin on a luxury $70M 737 Max.

Listen to this mess.

There it is. The Republican Party has decided that they can't win over the majority of the country with their policies, so they are PROACTIVELY making sure the right people win.

Let's make sure we foil their plans.
