Instead of looking at fake pictures of innocent people as criminals to distract from the Epstein files

Here’s a REAL mugshot of a REAL convicted criminal for everyone to see

Sexual misconduct allegations against Donald Trump – a timeline A list of the accusations made against Donald Trump between the 1980s and 2013, all of which he has denied

These women told us who Trump is and that he was buddies with Epstein. Why didn’t their stories break MAGA? Why is the deep state cover up bologna matter to them more than the women these monstrous, powerful men violated?

Perhaps the most baffling parts of the MAGA Epstein backlash is they thought 1) Trump wouldn’t at least be mentioned in those files 2) Trump would give away the leverage he may have over people implicated and 3) he would ever release everything.

Keep speaking up. Keep fighting. Some of us have more safety and security than others-be it because of our identity, job, finance, etc- and those of us that do have a responsibility to fight even harder.

Yet they’re legislating anyway. The executive branch is acting despite not knowing shit about what they’re doing (Orange Felon, Musk, RFKJr). Sitting back and watching doesn’t seem like an option.

How do we, the faculty of higher ed, organize to fight the authoritarianism being forced upon us? Nearly every institution is rolling over. I think we have to figure out how to fight before it’s too late. Serious question.

Zelensky owns a suit, and he looks damn good in it. Because he has a decent tailor. And he's in really great physical condition. He actually IS young and vigorous.

He doesn't need a suit to be a leader.

Clothes definitely don't make the man.

I would like to see our Democratic leaders protesting with the people they represent. The fundraising texts ate pissing me off right now. Do something about Elon. Even if you don’t have the votes- try. Make all Republicans defend this. At the very least you’ll have that in the midterms.

First, Trump pardoned hundreds of convicted criminals who violently attacked & injured cops on J6

Now, he's purging career DOJ & FBI staff assigned to investigate & prosecute those cases

The Dictator signals he'll have the backs of his MAGA street thugs

I’m feeling rather hopeless. How do we stop this madness? How do we protect our fellow humans? Do we have to wait it out and let horrible things happen until enough Americans figure out what’s actually happening? Will it be too late?

Seriously. Someone tell me WTF we’re supposed to do.

White House pauses all federal grants, sparking confusion The Trump administration has put a hold on all federal financial grants and loans, affecting tens of billions of dollars in payments.

Y'all: This is devastating for universities. Imagine you have a colony of research animals and can't re-order the food. Or you are a grad student on grant funding who lives paycheck-to-paycheck (also know as a student on grant funding). wapo.st/4gfgcHQ
