Hundreds and hundreds of pages of the Epstein 12/18 document drop have been fully and completely redacted. And everyone in a suit & tie in photos have been redacted except Bill Clinton. Seriously. The DoJ is shoveling BS.

Zelenskyy says Ukraine knows where Russia plans to deploy the “Oreshnik” missile system in Belarus and has shared the intel with allies.
He warns it could put countries like Poland and Germany within range, expanding the threat across Europe, and urges partners to respond, not stay silent.

Khanna: "The law clearly required all unclassified information being released today. They obviously have not complied with that law. They claim it's because it was only a few weeks -- well they've known about this for months."

I call BS. America deserves all the documents. The survivors deserve better from the DoJ.
DoJ will NOT release all the Epstein files today. So predictable. They say they’ll release some today, and more later on a “rolling basis.” www.theguardian.com/us-news/live...
Justice department will release ‘several hundred thousand’ Epstein files today, says deputy attorney general – live
Todd Blanche suggests some documents may be held back temporarily, citing need to protect victims

I am alarmed. I’m not numb to Trump chaos. I hope folks take breaks as they are needed from Trump’s BS. We’re in a terrible relationship, but we have an end date. #Midterms2026
I don’t think I’m being alarmist. If anything, I worry that we’ve become so inured to Trump’s madness that we’re not alarmist enough.

After firing 100+ immigration judges and revoking protected status from legal immigrants, the Trump regime now wants to strip citizenship from hundreds of naturalized Americans every month.
Trump never cared about “legal immigration" — just inflicting cruelty.
