I’ve reported on so many regular people being threatened and villified by conspiracy theories and hatred for people, many times spread by MTG. It’s awful when anyone has to deal with harassment and threats and I wonder if the congresswoman can look inward, too

NEW: In his first interview since his arrest for protesting outside the Chicago-area ICE facility, @revdrmichaelwoolf.bsky.social tells me he has "bruises all over my body."

Even so, he said, “the cruelty that goes on that facility … must be 100 times worse." religionnews.com/2025/11/15/a...

NEW from me: Speaker Mike Johnson dismisses religious freedom concerns of clergy who have been shot by DHS/ICE with pepper balls, pepper rounds, or rubber bullets, insisting he hasn't heard about such incidents despite being asked about one earlier this month. religionnews.com/2025/10/29/s...
Speaker Johnson says clergy protesting deportations have no right to 'get in the face' of DHS agents
(RNS) — Johnson initially claimed he was not aware of the instances, despite having been directly asked about one of the incidents in a press conference earlier this month.

Trump: Epstein and I had a very bad relationship for many years. You have got to find out what did he know with respect to Bill Clinton… all those people that knew including JP Morgan Chase..

Reporter: If there is nothing incriminating in the files, why not—

Trump: QUIET! QUIET!

According to Republicans access to healthcare is a privilege for working families while subsidies to corporations and lower taxes for the richest 3% is an investment. An investment in their ability to buy their next election.
F*ck DT & the GOP.

I wrote about how if social media posting is Trump's art form, yesterday's post on the Epstein Files was his Magnus Opus. I title it: A man in full panic.

WOLFF: “@RepTimBurchett long supported the release of the Epstein Files. However, his tone quickly changed once Trump was named in the few documents that have been released…”

Nobody in Knoxville/Tennessee is buying the act, Tim.

Megyn Kelly is a fool if she thinks this absolves Epstein and friends from being pedophiles: “there’s a difference between a 15 year old and a 5 year old.” Yeah Megyn, there is a difference but both are still children. MAGA, Stop defending pedos! #ReleaseTheFiles

WATCH - @tarapalmeri.bsky.social : “Hey Megyn Kelly… you want to hear the sound of one of the girls recruited from her nearby high school by Epstein? It is pedophilia. I would recommend you go listen to the audio from the police reports.”

According to Fox News, if you are a racist Young Republican you are still a "kid" when you are 34, but if you are an Epstein victim, you are an adult when you're 15.

Just in the past 3 days, I happened to speak to an academic, a US politician and a former Biden official who had all received death threats and severe harassment from the MAGA movement. It's now a common experience. I am sorry MTG has to live through the same thing, but she can't be surprised
MTG: “.. “I am now being contacted by private security firms with warnings for my safety as a hot bed of threats against me are being fueled and egged on by the most powerful man in the world. .. The man I supported and helped get elected.”
