This must watch PSA from the survivors of Jeffrey Epstein is chilling. The hurt they have lived through and continue to feel is clearly conveyed. F Meghan Kelly for trying to normalize sex with children because they are not 8 years old! This causes pain for LIFE for these survivors.

I don’t have delusions of grandeur. I have no illusions about “my reach”. I am not an online influencer. I don’t even presume that my posts will change minds.
But, there just came a time when staying quiet no longer worked for me.

Big, bad ICE saves us from a one-year-old

Letter from Chicago broadcast veterans: Federal immigration agents have traumatized us and eroded our rights
The fact that some federal immigration forces may be leaving soon is cold comfort given the damage they’ve done.

It’s not enough to simply thank our veterans for their service.
Millions of them rely on SNAP and the ACA.
Many struggle with PTSD and worry about access to mental health services.
Today, on Veterans Day, let’s renew our commitment to keep fighting for those who fought for us.

Ask him why so many air traffic controllers are retiring at once. Ask him if it has anything to do with Reagan firing 11K union strikers in 1981 and having to replace them all at once. Ask him how the mass firings this year will impact us the same way 40 years from now. Ask him, Jake.

Many in Trump’s administration now live on military bases, to shield themselves from the majority of Americans they are screwing over in favor of the oligarchs.
Many Republicans won’t do town halls.
They avoid the citizenry because they’ve stopped serving them.
We deserve much better.

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.

Shapiro: He rose to some prominence by writing a book about growing up in Appalachia, where there are a whole lot of people who get SNAP. He made millions of dollars off telling their stories, and then he turned his damn back on those very people he likes to write about and claim as his own.
