This is crazy.

Why the fuck did she have a list of the Epstein files that Jayapal accessed?
NEW: A page from Bondi's burn book. This is a list of the searches by Rep Jayapal of the unredacted Epstein files. That means the DOJ grabbed her search terms from the computers they set up for members of congress to view the Epstein files to use as ammunition. The photo is from Reuters.

It passed today.

Time to focus on the Senate
Republicans are still trying to pass the SAVE Act—a bill that would make it harder to vote and disenfranchise millions of Americans. Join @redistrictingaction.org and tell your member of Congress to vote no: act.redistrictingaction.org/a/natl-saveact-cte

“Democrats are trying to impose guardrails on how Trump’s fascist paramilitary force looks and operates, and how Trump can deploy his fascist paramilitary force, when the truth is that his fascist paramilitary force must be eliminated.”

First Draft: Reforming Trump's Gestapo?
As Congress weighs guardrails for Trump’s fascist military police, lawmakers vote to allow themselves to overturn the president’s tariffs.

Every photo from Minneapolis looks like this. Cops decked out with guns and full tac gear facing off against people in bathrobes, parkas, and sweatpants armed only with whistles and cell phones.

Yet every verified MAGA chode on X dutifully calls it a riot or violent insurrection.

THIS is the 'woke' that terrifies white Republicans.

A Black man delivering truth KOs as powerfully and articulately as Muhammad Ali:

"You my opposer when I want freedom... justice. You want me to go somewhere and fight, but you won't even stand up for me at home."

Since the collapse of communism the Czech Republic has had an easier time than Romania of living up to high civic norms. One big reason, writes @irinamanta.bsky.social at @theunpopulist.net: Czechoslovakia even under communism managed to preserve some independence for its legal profession.

Romania had to kill its tyrant and his supporters to make room for democracy because it had no legal route to oust him

Thank you, Julie Johnson, for speaking out against the grotesquely misnamed SAVE act. We need you to keep fighting for us in the House.
