Trump says the Epstein Files are a Democrat hoax, but only Democrats were guilty of crimes with Epstein.
He says the DOJ should stop releasing files and everyone should stop talking about it, but also the DOJ should charge Democrats with crimes.
This is how you talk when you’re guilty as hell.

“We have to expand the definition of environmental justice, because we can’t let people think that, because if you are not Black and poor, you are not going to be victimized by this. That’s not true.”
Why Trump deemed basic sanitation illegal DEI
On this week’s “More To The Story,” activist Catherine Coleman Flowers examines how the Trump administration’s environmental rollbacks could supercharge the movement to protect the planet.

I heard that Tim Walz has been facing people shouting "Retard" at his house just because Trump called him that once and they liked it.

ICE is not allowed to use deadly force unless someone is poses an immediate danger to themselves or others. So, I will take the claim that the people who were shot tried to run over the ICE agents with a large grain of salt.

Trump doesn't believe in anything. He's a fake Christian because he knows he can get votes from the religious right and it annoys 'the liberal elite' he hates because they despise him. #c4news

One of my favorite presents ever—my dad found and framed this pic of my mother @sunminkimes.bsky.social at a Seattle courthouse after she passed her US citizenship test in 1981. Like so many of the people who come here to start a new life, she is the best of us—the bravest, strongest person I know.

I see this on the right - the idea that the existence of foreign academic staff and faculty are evidence of discrimination against natives. It's not discrimination, its selection: academia is a global marketplace, the US is the biggest center of that market. So yes, some foreign talent will win.
Striking nativist editorializing by the federal judge who just upheld the $100,000 tax on high-skill immigrants.
She opines that it’s “troubling” that universities hire talent from abroad at all, instead of only native grads.
Then admits (!) that opinion is irrelevant (So why write it? Venting?)
