They’re all delusional. They will double-down on the lie even when they get caught lying

NEW: Epstein survivors release the most powerful PSA I have ever seen.

Make this go viral so every member of the House of Representatives sees it.

Careful! This is the same rhetoric that MAGA used in the US. They start out by saying they don’t want “illegal” immigration. “They should come here the right way!” That’s not what they really mean. Make no mistake: this is racism in a polite package. If they get into power, they drop the pretense

For those who don't immediately see the problem with requiring people to re-apply, a lot of the people on SNAP are disabled, many cognitively disabled or severely learning disabled. They can't fill out the forms themselves. Someone has to do it for them. They might not even know what's happening.

They’re in North Carolina now

Caturday.

I know MTG is having a moment and the urge to point out the hypocrisy is strong. (So strong!) But if you want people to learn to do better, you have to let them. When you see someone starting to change, don’t shit on them for it.

Florida: a coffin flag that once covered a WWII veteran who helped liberate Dachau and earned the Silver Star, rose again, not in mourning but in defiance.

@50501veterans.bsky.social: Our oath was never to a man or a party. It was to the Constitution and to the people. That oath does not expire.

Gosh, why and how could that be? Such an enigma!

House Democrats press DOJ for details on Epstein co-conspirators probe that was "inexplicably killed" Survivors of Jeffrey Epstein provided the Justice Department with "precise and detailed" information about 20 alleged co-conspirators, House Democrats say.

Biden didn’t release the Epstein files because Merrick Garland was actively investigating Epstein/Maxwell co-conspirators all the way up until January 2025. Then Trump shuttered the probe. www.cbsnews.com/news/jeffrey...

Academia has some reflection to do

Wow. He’s really trying everything he can to distract people from his own involvement. Well, dude, go ahead and try. Democrats have never been loyal to each other. If Clinton did skeevy, inappropriate things, we’ll hold him accountable. We want everyone held accountable.

This is why the Epstein Files need to be released. It’s not just about Trump. It’s about all the people who have raised themselves onto pedestals, enjoying their wealth and power, who are actually total scumbags.

If ACA goes away and people have to find their own policies you can count on millions of people being denied coverage because of preexisting conditions. The ACA made it illegal for insurance companies to refuse coverage or raise rates for preexisting medical issues. I know because I was one of them.

BREAKING: There is now a searchable Epstein Document dump:

just opening up the new Epstein docs at random:

Numbers are fun, but did we really need numbers to tell us that the MAGA base wasn’t going to turn out for a black woman? I mean… have y’all met Virginia? She’s grown a lot since 1965, but all of that old baggage is still here.

The emails obtained by Congressional democrats from the Epstein estate tell us that Trump is “nuts” and “evil.” So, this tracks

Why does corporate media keep using the words like “claims” and “alleges?” Epstein’s dead. The words you need are “Epstein email states” It’s not “alleged.” It’s right there in black and white.

NEW: Jeffrey Epstein said in emails that he had been advising the Russian government on how to deal with Donald Trump, one of several cases in which he wielded his connections to try to influence the course of foreign affairs. w @nahaltoosi

Wait- What? Really? Oh, that explains a lot about my life...

I guess we know why Trump, Bondi, Patel and Mike Johnson have been covering up the Epstein files. I’m sure there is a whole lot more and a whole lot worse.

Trump Canceled 94 Million Pounds of Food Aid. Here’s What Never Arrived. ProPublica obtained records from the Department of Agriculture that detail the millions of pounds of food, down to the number of eggs, that never reached food banks because of the administration’s cut...

Records obtained by ProPublica indicate that food banks across the country were expecting more than 27 million pounds of chicken, 2 million gallons of milk, 10 million pounds of dried fruit and 60 million eggs that never arrived.

Well, duh. They had to apply and commit months ago, maybe even before he was elected.

🔥 @RepJoeNeguse: “Most of 🇺🇸 will find this REPUGNANT. These senators are guaranteeing themselves million-dollar paydays.”

Bipartisan horror at @SenatorHagerty & @MarshaBlackburn’s greedy money grab snuck inside the funding bill— rewarding themselves for getting investigated.

Non-corporate media is growing and filling a market demand. Personally, I love The Daily Beans, but I’ll give these folks a listen too. Thanks for highlighting them!

McGovern: Seriously, we were worried. We actually started handing out missing person posters. Nobody has seen you for eight weeks. But, hey, I'm glad that you are ok. I'm glad you survived your nice, two-month paid vacation

The sheer number of people Trump pardoned — 1,500+ — and the magnitude of violence many (most?) of them committed means it is statistically likely that a fair number will be revidivists, potentially for more egregious crimes. The pardons should be a top story EVERY DAY
