“Weaponizing the DOJ” takes on a whole new level when you order investigations in order to reopen it so it’s no longer closed and you can claim you can’t release information because it’s an “ongoing investigation”

She scares me!😱
Marjorie Taylor Greene argues that telling people prices have come down “gaslights” them. She says Americans know what they’re paying—at the grocery store, for their kids’ clothes, for electricity—and deserve compassion, not lectures or denial about what they’re experiencing.

NPR reported this morning that, based on their review of the #Epstein emails released yesterday, Trump’s name appeared more than 1,000 times in the document—

"I have met some very bad people, none as bad as #Trump. Not one decent cell in his body." - Jeffrey Epstein

Jeffrey Epstein in 2015: "Have them ask my houseman about donald almost walking through the door leaving his nose print on the glass as young women were swimming in the pool and he was so focused he walked straight into the door."

Larry Summers getting advice on how to communicate with women, and Epstein advising him how to be emotionally manipulative, is both gross and pathetic www.nytimes.com/2025/11/12/u...

Todd Blanche would have had these emails before interviewing Maxwell. Why didn’t he question her directly about her exchanges? Why did he not follow up when she said things that were onviously a lie?? This shows that was a performance intended to dupe the public and benefit her (and Trump)

If **Jeffrey Epstein** thinks you're a evil and demented sociopath, the odds are overwhelming that you are, in fact, an evil and demented sociopath.

The sheer number of people Trump pardoned — 1,500+ — and the magnitude of violence many (most?) of them committed means it is statistically likely that a fair number will be revidivists, potentially for more egregious crimes. The pardons should be a top story EVERY DAY
Welcome to “justice” in Donald Trump’s America.

40 men Trump sent to CECOT tell the NYT they were beaten, tortured, and sexually assaulted. The details are worse than you can imagine.

We can’t let them get away with this. Miller and the other architects of this sadism need to go to prison.

It still boggles my mind that so many people couldn't grasp last year how significantly more morally depraved a second Trump term would be in comparison to the first. And how so many people still can't comprehend that our national crisis isn't about politics, but simple morality.

Along the lines of people dressing up in inflatable frog costumes, I think an effective resistance tactic against these pathetic men could involve crowds of people pointing, cracking up and falling to the floor in hysterical laughter as tubas play clown music in the background

The president had a MRI but won't say why.

He had bruises on his hands but wouldn't say why.

He just had an 'annual medical' even though he already had his annual medical.

He got shot in the ear but has never released the medical records relating to it.

How is any of this ok?

It’s also the same in SouthEast Asia.
Literally anyone I am remotely related to I refer to my “aunt,”
“uncle,” or “cousin,” (and any older Indian person I actually call “auntie” and “uncle”) and I’m pretty sure that’s quite common among South Asians

It a variant on what Putin actually did.
Then I guess Obama can run too, right? Or does this “theory” only apply to Republicans? (I am making a point, not trying to legit engage with the supposed legal argument)
Q: One theory on how you might try to serve a 3rd term is that you could run at the vice president

TRUMP: Yeah, I'd be allowed to do that. But I would rule that out because it's too cute.

We should not just be asking the real price of this ballroom, how it’s really being financed and how Trump could get away with this East Wing demolition and desecration of our history. We should find out whether he’s building an underground bunker and how much he’s stealing for himself.

So what would stop Trump from waking up in the middle of the night, saying "fuck it," and ordering that the rest of the White House be torn down and replaced with a tall golden tower in the shape of a T?

A freedom-loving people will not stand for the corruption and the power grabs we’re witnessing daily in our country. That's why millions of Americans took to the streets a few days ago, and it's why elections like the Virginia governor race will show the path to a better future a few days from now.

Today, Mike Johnson will keep the House adjourned for the 81st day out of the last 93.

12 days of work in over 3 months.

With full pay and benefits.

The senate has been working, so this is not about the shutdown.

It is about avoiding a vote to release the Epstein files.

It will provide an excellent opportunity to remind people of all the reasons why Donald Trump should he serving a long federal prison term.
