Moulton: This is state-sponsored terror. This is what you would expect to see in North Korea or Iran or the old Soviet Union. We’ve got to crack down on the government before they crack down on the American people.

Wow: This appears to be a draft statement written by Ghislaine Maxwell in which she addresses allegations made against her and Prince Andrew by Virginia Giuffre. Maxwell appears to confirm that the photo is real and admits that Epstein committed crimes—contradicting her sworn testimony.

Look at these sickening pedo emails.

Why are they protecting these people? Why did Kash say there was no trafficking going on?

Why do Republicans not care?

To put it another way: Jeff Bezos could easily ensure there are no staff cuts at The Washington Post for the next decade, and he'd still have more than $249B in net worth left over.
Jeff Bezos' wedding last summer cost somewhere around $50M. That, alone, could have saved all 300 positions cut today at The Washington Post for a year.

Of course, he wouldn't have to choose. He could do both because he's worth $250B, which is nearly the GDP of New Zealand.

First off, Walmart & the Walton family receive an annual $7.8 billion dollars in subsidies and tax breaks. Then, you have them using offshore tax havens to avoid billions in U.S. corporate taxes & exploiting loopholes for executive pay deductions.

So, yeah, no surprise.

This Homan presser is completely incoherent. He started by announcing a drawdown of 700 agents (good!) but then pivoted to whining about "rhetoric" (bad) and suggested there will be more bloodshed if it doesn't stop (grim). Not clear to me that anything is actually changing on the ground here in MN.

Ritchie Torres is one of the most corrupt and morally bankrupt people in the Dem House caucus.

He is a complete & unrepentant AIPAC shill who hasn’t done a damned thing to improve the lives of poor people in the Bronx.

Trump has QUOTAS for detaining undocumented migrants.

🔥Now he also wants quotas to DENATURALIZE citizens who survived the red tape, interviews, civics exam, and English competency to gain U.S. citizenship, up to 200/month (160 times more than before).

Thousands showed up in Seattle—nurses, doctors, educators—people who heal and protect life. Congress is voting to fund ICE instead of care. The public is choosing dignity and health. Lawmakers should listen.

Donald Trump said he wants to "nationalize" elections.

Translation: he knows he's about to get destroyed in the midterms and will do anything he can to stop people from voting.
