1. For seven years, @chrissyteigen.bsky.social has had to deal with attacks from QAnon people accusing her of being involved with Jeffrey Epstein, based on a fake flight manifest.

First, if the manifest were real, she would have been a victim given her age at the time.

Seems like editors that rely on the “Trump says…” headline style could choose to run a headline “Rep Ted Lieu says Epstein files contain allegations of Trump raping children”.
more of this pls

@reptedlieu.bsky.social: "In those files, there's highly disturbing allegations of Donald Trump raping children, of Donald Trump threatening to kill children"

CBP shot this woman and then defamed her using every means at their disposal. In a just world they would have to turn their whole yearly budget over to her for punitive damages
Martinez is recounting her harrowing experience: after being shot by CBP agents, she drove a mile to the safety of an auto shop where she called 911, got treatment at a hospital for 7 bullet wounds, then was immediately taken into custody by federal agents.

He's looting the U.S. Treasury, people. Most crooked dictators find covert ways to get rich. Trump intends to simply order his government to transfer money into his bank account.
Trump on his multiple suits against the federal government: "I'm supposed to work out a settlement with myself ... We could make it a substantial amount, nobody would care, because it's gonna go to numerous, very good charities."

Remember her name: Aliya Rahman

Her testimony is everything and it deserves to be heard, by everyone. Decide for yourself.

It’s powerful. It’s gut-wrenching. And no one should have to survive what she did.

ICE MUST GO‼️

"Regardless of what the chief justice is trying to hide, one thing is clear. Roberts thinks the best hope for fixing the Supreme Court’s image is to keep employees’ mouths shut, and to keep the public in the dark."

Why are Roberts and his MAGA #SCOTUS colleagues so afraid of the sunlight?
John Roberts is out here making Supreme Court clerks and employees sign nondisclosure agreements

Roberts surely knows this raises the question 'WTF is behind the NDA?'

To do so anyway suggests he decided even public speculation is preferable to public knowledge

John Roberts Does Not Want You Finding Out How the Supreme Court Actually Works
The six-justice conservative supermajority is taking aggressive steps to ensure that the public remains in the dark about how the Supreme Court functions.

He’s going to cave, I can feel it already.

He’s going to cave, the Dems are going to cave,

and ICE and CBP will continue to be lawless Gestapo thugs on our streets
Democrats want commonsense reform for ICE:

End the roving patrols and racial profiling.

Take accountability and abide by the same rules as local police.

Masks need to come off, body cameras need to stay on—no secret police in the United States of America.

So lemme get this straight: Pizzagate fabulists worked really hard to manufacture what they thought was the most insanely dark fictional story that could ever be conjured…

…and that fictional tale ended up being milder & more chill than the real stuff that actually happened in the Epstein files.

The argument that people having rights makes law enforcement more difficult is not remotely convincing.
Mike Johnson speaks out against the use of judicial warrants in immigration cases:

"Imagine if we had to go through the process of getting a judicial warrant"

Mike, that "magic" is simply this thing called math
Mike Johnson on Trump calling for Rs to "nationalize" elections: "We had 3 Republicans who were ahead on election day in last cycle & every time a new tranche of ballots came in they just magically whittled away until their leads were lost. It looks on its face to be fraudulent. Can I prove it? No"

I hadn’t known this. Two men who were accused of sexual abuse on the Shitty Media Men document that I created back in 2017 reached out to Michael Wolff for help as they looked to sue me, and Wolf forwarded their concerns to Jeffrey Epstein. Epstein offered to help. www.jmail.world/thread/EFTA0...

"This guy is clearly a monster, but he's a well-connected and well-resourced monster so I'm going to let it slide" is the universal lapse in judgement here among elites, and it's a huge issue that seems to be getting missed even though it's so damning of the culture around them.

I have not met many (3?) billionaires and they were certainly nice people but it also seems plausible that as a class billionaires simply cannot be “human” if we view material limitations as constitutive of the human condition

You can look at the Epstein files and conclude that only bad people have billions of dollars, but I think it’s also possible that having billions of dollars cauterizes your humanity

*Remember when scouting was all about covering up the molestation of kids? Let's get back to that.*
– Trump's hirelings, in essence
Breaking news: The Pentagon issued a warning to Scouting America, formerly known as the Boy Scouts, saying the organization risks losing its long-standing partnership with the U.S. military unless it rapidly implements “core value reforms.”
Pentagon warns Scouts to restore ‘core values’ or lose military support
The relationship dates back decades, but Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth has criticized the organization for allowing girls to join and changing its name from Boy Scouts.

So, this confirms that Gabbard was directed by Trump to go down to Georgia to tinker with the 2020 election results. They call it 'an investigation' though. Wink-Wink.
Q: Why was Tulsi Gabbard involved in a domestic law enforcement search in Georgia?

LEAVITT: Tulsi Gabbard has been tapped by the president to oversee the sanctity and security of our American elections. She's working directly alongside the FBI. This is a coordinated, whole of govt effort.
