hey #skystorians (or others for that matter), are any of you affiliated with Lewis and Clark College? There's somebody there I'd like to reach out to and conventional approaches haven't worked. (shoot me a message on here if you might be able to make that happen)

When a person who tried to steal an election with an orchestrated insurrection tells you he’s going to protect future elections, you’re fucked. The time to deal with him is now America. The rest of us are doing our part. Your turn.

I am an atheist, but I firmly believe that if you participate in a pantomime like this you are 100% hellbound
On Thanksgiving, the immigrant children held at the Dilley detention center gathered in the gym for what they thought was a holiday feast.
The kids salivated over a spread of turkey, sandwiches, pastries and pies, a family told me.
But the food wasn’t for detainees — it was for the staff.

Not a solitary listless fuck to give about the victims, after all these months of review and redaction. Every last effort given in that same period of delay to redacting and protecting the powerful men who abused them.
Sickening.

Part of this is frank indifference to the victims, part is that the people remaining in DoJ are dregs.
“A review of 47 victims’ full names on Sunday found that 43 of them were left unredacted in files that were made public by the government on Friday, according to a Wall Street Journal analysis. Several women’s full names appeared more than 100 times in the files. “

To be fair, Christ was a bit on the down-low for the whole of Old Testament and only starts to pop in the ensuing fan-fic. By contrast, Trump seems to have started his Epstein character arc from as soon as he could snag an invite to the first party.
Trump’s name appears 38,000+ times in the Epstein files!!! Trump is the Epstein files! This is a predator with other predators! Trump/GOP pedophile protectors are fine with ICE abuses of force including to children! All the while Trump & billionaires profit while you pay more! #FundHealthcareOverICE
