He f'ing did it!! We may have just witnessed our generation's "have you no sense of decency" moment.

Oh, they've all figured it out. They're just doing their typical "token" gestures to make appear like they have a conscience and "maaaaaayyyyy" do the right thing. They won't. They never do.

Epstein survivor Anouska De Georgiou: The fact that the very people who are meant to lead this country have completely retraumatized us… it’s—I mean—it’s like being raped by the Department of Justice.

No joke: I got angry hate mail today for writing an obituary of a Black woman scientist—because the person felt she did didn’t deserve the recognition.

What a beautiful reminder of why the arts are so important. This performance is stunning and brings to life a voice from 400 years ago. Language and Art connect us to all who came before us. And the message reminds us that we are not alone. 🥲
Sir Ian McKellen performing a monologue from Shakespeare’s Sir Thomas More on the Stephen Colbert show. Never have I heard this monologue performed with such a keen sense of prescience. Nor have I ever been in this exact historical moment.TY Sir Ian, for reaching us once again.

Trump has always been a "means to an end" for Republicans and their true masters, the Oligarchy. This is why it is so important NOT to tie this to a single person. Monstrous as Trump is, he may have been a blessing in disguise. His stupidity exposed the fascist plan far too early. Good!

SB women are not to be messed with. This is a diverse, passionate, and caring community with tremendous resources.
DHS should be embarrassed that their ICE agent hires are so soft they can’t handle being videotaped, even while masked, so they resort to pepper spraying women at close range.
And we should be proud of the Santa Barbara women who stood their ground anyway.

What we are witnessing is a CONSPIRACY by the Republican Party to protect a child rapist and a child sex trafficking network. This is the holy grail of corruption and they will protect it at ALL COSTS.
They will NEVER willingly release the legitimate files. NEVER! Don't be fooled by their claims 😡

Keep saying it.
Trump isn't just in the Epstein files, he is the Epstein files.
The DOJ is spending millions and millions and dollars to cover it up.

Though certainly to a lesser extent, Democrats are cementing their place in American history. Their utter cowardice and failure to mount even the most basic opposition to Republican fascism will be studied for centuries. 😡
To quote one source:
“They’re terrified of being labeled anti–law enforcement. They want this to go away so they can talk about the cost of living more. Problem is, it’s not going away.”

Though it pains me to say, these Republicans would cement their place in history as having saved America from fascism. So, why don' they?
My guess... American kompromat runs very deep.

It would only take a tiny handful of Republican Congress members or senators to stop the slide of America toward authoritarian fascism, but nope. They're all in.

Republicans will NEVER willingly release the Epstein files. They know it's the holy grail of political corruption and would result in their political extinction. Here's just a sample of what they're hiding. 👇 (the courage of this person is staggering)
Why is threads the only place talking about this #epsteinvictim? This individual has been telling this story since 2022 and no one has been listening.

Yes! Exactly! Republicans value protecting their ability to KILL you MORE than your right to simply continue living. 😡
DAN KOH: “$30 BILLION for 10,000 more ICE agents… that would cover all the ACA subsidies for a year. It would eliminate all medical debt. Trump is making it easier to kill people than keep people alive.”
