You've got to be kidding me.
You know Trump is going to somehow pocket at least 1B of that and call it a finders fee.

Minute 2:43 when asked why he wished Ghislane well when she was a child sex trafficker... His response?
"Big Deal"
How did I miss this?

👉 No one believes Epstein killed himself. Not Trump, not his partner Ghislaine Maxwell, not his brother, not Dr Baden

Guess this ice agent is now a terrorist under NPSM-7 for “Anti-Christian” activities. What a shame.

Curious as to @bsky.app policies on this?

For years, local governments & police departments have cooperated with federal agencies through the Joint Terrorism Task Forces. Now, through Trump's new NPSM-7 directive, these task forces will focus on “leftist” groups.

History shows us what happens when our movements are targeted by the feds.

In NSPM-7, “Countering Domestic Terrorism and Organized Political Violence,” President Trump directs the Justice Department, the FBI, and other national security agencies and departments to fight his version of political violence in America, retooling a network of Joint Terrorism Task Forces to focus on “leftist” political violence in America. This vast counterterrorism army, made up of federal, state, and local agents would, as Trump aide Stephen Miller said, form “the central hub of that effort.”

NSPM-7 directs a new national strategy to “disrupt” any individual or groups “that foment political violence,” including “before they result in violent political acts.”

If Mike Johnson is refusing to call the House back into session during the shutdown, then we’ll do the work right here the Bronx.

The New York Essential plan is being eliminated entirely next year due to the GOP healthcare cuts. People’s lives are at stake.

And that’s why we’re fighting back.

California, this November 4th, the whole country is counting on you.

Prop 50 puts our elections back on a level playing field, preserves independent redistricting over the long term, and lets the people decide.

So return your ballot today. Vote yes on 50.

If you listen closely, the noise of that crowd is rightfully enraged. Something is going to give, and history says it's usually the death of one of these detainees (George Floyd) or protestors (Kent State).
Things will change, but why tf does someone always have to die first?

one of my takeaways from this great piece is that weiss just doesn’t…sound like an intelligent person? or at least, not someone who has thought even a little bit about how and why they think the things that they do. www.youtube.com/watch?v=gieT...

Blessed are the frogs, for they keep making authoritarians look incredibly stupid

Eeeewwww...
xAI, Musk's AI component, wants me to interview for their real estate director position.
Fuck that. I'll go broke & live in my car before I hand over my personal info and probably my soul to that demonic, ketamine-infused space fucker.

I hope I never get that desperate.

We’re in the second Gilded Age just like the first — when America’s wealth was in the hands of a few, money corrupted politics, and working people were abused and exploited.

It can be easy to feel discouraged, but the first Gilded Age teaches us lessons on how we can fight back.
