"President Epstein" is THE winner and what I shall call him from now on. There's nothing he hates worse than people not saying the T-word
Today President Epstein said “sometimes you need a dictator.” No, we don’t.

I have been actively involved in protest movements for 24 years. I have never seen anything approaching this scale. Minneapolis is not accepting what's happening here. ICE fucking murdered a woman for participating in this, and all that did is bring out more people, from more walks of life.

AOC: The president has been acting in increasingly erratic ways. It is really damning when we think about the degree to which media outlets reported on Joe Biden, yet we are seeing behavior from Trump that is alarming, and everyone is pretending this is normal.

Renee Good was shot 3 times by ICE

The first two shots were non lethal. One to her left forearm & another to right breast

The final shot entered the left side of her head & exited the right side

He didn’t have to keep shooting. He was out of the vehicle’s path before the kill shot

That’s murder

I think all the European leaders should start calling him Donald in public, since he is so disrespectful that he calls them all by their first names.

He doesn't deserve to be referred to or addressed as "Mr. President" when he can't show the same respect to his peers.

I mean, why would Putin be scared of Trump? Trump works for him and Putin has plenty of kompromat on him.
Putin clearly isn’t scared of Trump.

Trump is so weak that Putin actually sees him as an opportunity to escalate his war

The greatest mystery of my life is how anyone ever took this piss-frosted dickdrip seriously.
Trump is now confusing Greenland and Iceland: "They're not there for us on Iceland, that I can tell you. Our stock market took the first dip yesterday because of Iceland. So Iceland has already cost us a lot of money."

This new whistleblower report is on par with the Zelensky call - not just because it’s violative of law - but because they also tried to keep people from seeing it. I’ve been doing this for a long time and this is absolutely explosive news. Impeachable and criminal. Swift accountability must follow.

The United States president has spent his entire life refusing to live up to the bargains he strikes. The world knows the truth that Mark Carney said aloud today. And like Canada, we as Americans need to accept it and choose our path forward. (Thread)

I spent the morning at the San Antonio immigration court. It’s out of control.

Crawling with ICE - arresting legal immigrants showing up for court appearances.

I asked one officer who they are prioritizing. His answer: everyone.

I need to share with you what I saw.

True for science too.

If in the future universities are amoral enough to take back the Trump people who did so much harm to science and public health, scientists and faculty must push back - or give up on the idea of free and open science and academia.

When this is over, amoral anti-American law firms like Jones Day will eagerly be running Operation Paperclip for the lawless scum of the Trump DoJ like D. John Sauer, and the profession has to find a way to inflict debilitating harm on those firms and their managers or give up on the rule of law.
After Sauer says Lisa Cook "was given an opportunity" to respond to the allegations, KBJ asks whether that due process was: "She supposed to post about it, and that was the opportunity to be heard?"

Yes, Sauer replies.

Call your reps.
So the House is going to vote TOMORROW on the DHS funding bill that includes funding for ICE.

There's a real chance we can get Dems to vote NO on any bill with ICE funding to sink it.

Once it goes to the Senate we likely lose this chance.

24 hours. Go.
