The Rs were ALL about "saving children" when it was completely fictional, theoretical and allowed them to shit on trans people. But now that we have evidence that would warrant actual investigation into real crimes against real children...crickets.

This 100% tracks with how they've always been.

Dear Humans of 2026,

How does it feel to be ruled over by a gang of tech billionaire pedophiles?
Who don’t you just arrest them? Why is no one being prosecuted?!?

🤷‍♂️

God

as someone who pushes hard against conspiratorial thinking in my professional and political life, it is deeply irritating when, on top of the untold human harms Epstein caused, it turns out he was at the center of at least half a dozen actual conspiracies

I think that religious leaders of all faiths should call a news conference to condemn Trump’s actions.

So shouldn't some of these things in the Epstein files have been, like.... investigated??!!? Where are the records of those investigations?

And why does every news article STILL say shit like "Trump has not been accused of any wrongdoing"? He certainly has!

I'm visiting yet another business that has a bouncer posted and its doors locked, in case you believe there's any kind of vibe shift in Minneapolis after Bovino was thrown under the bus.

They're still terrorizing us, and still being cowards about it.

"You can't have guns." -Trump

Yoooooo hooooo....guys? Where is the entire state I grew up in and all the rural folk and every hunter and everyone who said Hillary Clinton was going to come TRY to take their guns?? Watcha thinkin'??

Gun worship and Trump worship on a collision course. My hypothesis is that the gun worshipping Trump cultists will find a way to keep doing both and keep claiming Democrats are the ones who think you "can't have guns". But man that cognitive dissonance would bother me.
Trump: "With that being said, you can't have guns. You can't walk in with guns. You just can't. You can't walk in with guns. You can't do that. But it's just a very unfortunate incident."

The biggest risk in this moment is something sociologists call “symbolic compliance.”

That’s when an institution that is violating civil rights gives the public just enough symbolic victories that accountability efforts lose steam before there has been any meaningful change.

“Why did you kill him?”
“Because he was there.”

Minnesota believes in law and order. We believe in peace. And we believe that Trump needs to pull his 3,000 untrained agents out of Minnesota before they kill another American in the street.

What was all the uproar about the 2nd amendment rights about all those years if it wasn’t to protect our 1st and 4th amendment rights!?

I’m still waiting on the “don’t tread on me” crowd to be as mad about armed masked men breaking down doors without warrants as they were about wearing a mask to Applebee’s…

Our congressional leaders’ insistence on carrying out politics as usual right now may be the most disgusting display of obliviousness I’ve ever seen.

Neighbors standing guard over churches so that parents can have secret meetings about how to keep daycares safe. This is what's happening in the Twin Cities right now.

The Universe is trying to make this as easy and dumbed down as possible. Her last name was GOOD! She was the good guy! How obvious does the simulation have to be?

First, the people who worshipped guns in this way aren't good guys. Secondly, they are still where they always were, in their fucking recliners at home daring Hillary to come and take 'em. To them, pronouns and purple hair and women having rights is tyranny. Everything that's happening now is fine.
Where are all the good guys with guns? The people who have spent the last 50 years telling us that we had to make sure every American has a gun in case we needed them to protect ourselves from tyranny?

And where are the stories to point this out (they may be there; I just don't know)?

it's great to know if a federal agent shoots you in the face the entire government will publicly slander you as a domestic terrorist before ambulances even arrive

The Epstein Files Transparency Act is a law, passed by Congress on November 19 with an overwhelming vote. Complying with it was not optional. The Department of Justice did not comply.

I want to make sure this is very clear.

Tired of raising children in a country where raping children is not disqualifying for being President of the United States.

But being a woman is.
