I think this is a good summary of the Trump regime and 2025 in history, from the his new Acting Undersecretary of State. This is where we are now with the #Republican party.

Ossoff: "POTUS called for this man [Mark Kelly] to be hanged. A combat veteran, naval aviator, astronaut, senator. He demanded his execution bc he stated a principle enshrined in uniform code of military justice. If we become numb to that we lose sight of how extraordinary our obligations are."

Bondi and Congress aren't the only ones covering up the Epstein files.

Corp media just needs a distraction going 24 hours a day as cover from now until the midterm elections are cancelled.

Trump will burn down the whole country to save himself, and Republicans and the media are letting him do it.

ICE agent asked why he's taking pictures of a legal observer's car, replies: "Cuz we have a nice little database and now you're considered a domestic terrorist. So have fun with that."

I think that a non-insignificant portion of people's upset with Congressional Democrats is that people simply want revenge against the Republican Party for the evil and degradation it has unleashed. There's a justifiable bloodlust against the GOP that hasn't manifested into anything concrete yet.

The public, the electorate, is painfully aware of this, Senator. The question many of us have is, What are lawmakers that supposedly work for us doing about it? 🧐

We're watching, and so far what we're seeing is a lot of useless hand wringing and whining about it.

FYI: Dems in the senate can't defund ICE. ICE is funded by the Big Ugly Bill. Shutting down DHS on this vote wouldn't touch ICE, but it would shut down FEMA, TSA, Coast Guard, etc. Shutting down ICE requires taking back Congress in the midterms. Dismantling DHS requires the White House in 2028.

Start by looking at Epstein clients whoTrump hired. Howard Lutnick. Steve Witkoff. And now Tony Blair for this money grab “Peace” Board.

Trump is not only hiding the files to protect himself. He’s protecting others too.

Today, Minnesota is shutting down in solidarity.

It could be a model for what the nation as a whole does in coming months, to repudiate the Trump dictatorship. https://robertreich.substack.com/p/minnesotas-general-strike-and-americas

The GOP seems to know that Trump "conspired to corrupt the results of the 2020 election and seize a second term he didn’t win." But they are attacking former special counsel Jack Smith because the president wants to punish those who follow the facts & the law. www.politico.com/news/2026/01...
Republicans tried to snag Jack Smith on technicalities. But they didn’t engage with the facts.
Instead of focusing on the crux of the former special counsel’s Trump cases, GOP House members questioned him on process.

Trump is creating a world in which “not only would the rules be unpredictable, they would depend entirely on the impulses of whoever happens to command the most coercive power at a given moment.”

Chancellor Merz:

Several weeks ago, I told President Trump that I would personally be willing to join the Board of Peace.

As the Peace Board is currently structured, we cannot accept its governance structures, also for constitutional reasons in Germany.

Even in a near-perfect world where 95% of people vaccinate, there will still be fallout from what's happening in the US now.

The less a virus circulates, the fewer chances it has to evolve.

More spread ➡️ more replication ➡️ more mutation ➡️ higher chance of immune escape.

This is not materially different from Josef Mengele. The concept is to deliberately expose people to serious harm so you can gather more data on what you already know will hurt them. It's not some big coincidence the Nuremberg Code expressly prohibits everything resembling this kind of "science."
RFK Jr. appointee Kirk Milhoan has just clearly stated, out loud, that he wants to experiment on the people of the United States by seeing what happens as vaccination coverage plummets and infectious diseases spread.
