The vulnerable spot beneath the dragon's wing is called Jeffrey Epstein.

Aim all your arrows there.

There are other examples, but THIS RIGHT HERE is why this SCOTUS is one hundred mother fucking percent illegitimate.

Yes, I know what means. Yes, I understand the ramifications of such a statement. If you can't say it, get the fuck out of the way because this is absolutely true.

SCOTUS declined to explain why ICE can use race to abduct you off the street without probable cause but the government is absolutely forbidden to use race to preserve the voting rights of historically marginalized and minoritized communities.

I resisted this conspiracy theory, but can resist no more.

Where TF is the wound?

There's not enough blood in ear cartilage to *splatter* all the way to the guy's mouth. They did this in the huddle.

Another $20 billion. That is the face you make when you heist the US taxpayers for $40 billion two weeks before your midterm elections from the most corrupt America Last regime in history.

The woman who has secured a restraining order is *different* than the woman who called the cops on Mills back in February and accused him of physical abuse before recanting.

A great piece. France, particularly Paris, is replete with plaques commemorating brave resistance heroes and young Jews who were sacrificed to the regime.

The brave will be remembered.

I love my Gov. Hope he's willing to GTFO if things truly go south.

Governor Tim Walz @governorwalz.mn.gov · 4h

Insurance rates up $2000.

Food benefits cut off.

Farmers unable to sell their crops.

Skyrocketing national debt.

$40 billion to Argentina.

America First!

Can we leave the Union yet, Gov?

Strider @reluctantranger.bsky.social · 2h

Serious question: What are the chances of secession of one or more states? I'm thinking practically and logistically. I know we have red and blue folk in *every* state and I know these fascists would love to order a real military occupation.

So what chances do you see?

These fascist billionaire bros are *freaking out* about the No Kings protests here and around the world on Saturday.

We need to blow the roof off the planet. This weekend needs to be a fork in the road. Every able-bodied person needs to get TF out there.

No money for healthcare, no money for veterans, no money for farmers. But good news: Trump just doubled Argentina’s bailout to $40 billion.

Mike Johnson is covering up for pedophiles. I won't stop saying it.

Congressional Democrats should have an Epstein victim, statement, conference, release, on the Capitol steps every single day of the shutdown.

Congresswoman Yassamin Ansari @repyassansari.bsky.social · 7h

I sat in the room with Mike Johnson as Epstein’s survivors told their stories. He looked them in the eyes and promised accountability.

Now he’s blocking the vote to release the files. Swear in Congresswoman-elect @adelitaforcongress.bsky.social—now.

There is no area in which they have been more consistent than this. They are 100% going to kill the Voting Rights Act.

Emerging from the darkness of this era will require us to acknowledge that the previous status quo, including many institutions that may have served us well in another era, have been failing for my entire lifetime.

‘Prince Andrew believed having sex with me was his birthright’: Virginia Giuffre on her abuse at the hands of Epstein, Maxwell and the King’s brother

In an extract from her posthumous memoir, Virginia Roberts Giuffre remembers the day an ‘apex predator’ recruited her from Mar-a-Lago, aged just 16; how she was trafficked to a succession of wealthy and powerful men, and how everyone knew what was going on

No GOP victories for state or federal office are legitimate.

Al Cappuccino…☕️🇮🇹 @alcappuccinoit.bsky.social · 9h

The DoJ wants states’ voter data, a MAGAt now owns Dominion, SCOTUS may further gut the Voting Rights Act, a 2020 election denier now holds a gov’t “election integrity” post, Trump may invoke the Insurrection Act, and we still don’t know how Elon affected the 2024 election. So we’re doing great.

Strider @reluctantranger.bsky.social · 9h

As patriotic Americans gather this Saturday, we should have front of mind that there is currently no Congress in the United States and it is entirely possible that they will not return *at all.*

We are right back to "Taxation without Representation."
