Throwback to Pam Bondi’s campaign ad for Florida AG:

“I’ll fight to put human trafficking monsters where they belong. Behind bars.”

The ad aged. The internet remembers.

Rep. Jamie Raskin now says Trump's name is mentioned "more than a million times" in the un-redacted version of the Epstein files that were released nearly two weeks ago.

This doesn't include the other three million files that have yet to be released.

A million times in the first 3.5 million files.

Reminder that these "reasonable" reforms, should they be agreed to, means the Dems will give them MORE money to continue their murderous rampage across America.

Abolish ICE.
Our DHS reform demands are exceedingly reasonable.

We're asking ICE to do nothing more than follow the standards that the vast majority of law enforcement agencies already follow.

Republicans, the ball is in your court. The clock is ticking.

We live in a moment when so many people in this country share the moral clarity that ICE endangers us all—only for the heads of the “opposition” party to try to quash this clarity with meaningless reforms, and to give ICE more money and power. 2020 never ended.

Make it stop. These a concentration camps. If curtailing this and boosting the budget aren’t non-negotiables for Dems what are you even doing @schumer.senate.gov @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social @repbillfoster.bsky.social @casten.house.gov @underwood.house.gov
ICE has now spent over half a BILLION dollars just on purchasing warehouses around the country to convert into detention camps.

If these mega-camps are utilized to the full capacity ICE intends, they'll be the largest prisons in the country, with little real oversight. www.ajc.com/politics/202...

This is an email Epstein sent himself. Looks like this proves the billionaires are all involved.

Ossoff: “This is the Epstein class... Trump is literally closing rural hospitals to cut taxes for George Soros...”

I would strongly encourage Democrats to continue with this rhetorical strategy.

It really subverts the entire worldview of the MAGA right.

ICE told nurses this Minneapolis man “purposefully ran headfirst into a brick wall.”

What actually happened is that they pulled him from a car, beat him so viciously with a steel baton that he had 8 skull fractures, 5 life-threatening brain hemorrhages, and couldn’t remember he had a daughter.

Hey guys… layoffs of this size were in the midst of the Great Recession. Things are bad.

Wow: This appears to be a draft statement written by Ghislaine Maxwell in which she addresses allegations made against her and Prince Andrew by Virginia Giuffre. Maxwell appears to confirm that the photo is real and admits that Epstein committed crimes—contradicting her sworn testimony.

@schumer.senate.gov @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social Dems should be waging a sustained communication effort, in the media, demanding the resignation of each of these dirtbags in the Trump admin, including Trump. Get on it.
This is preying on my mind a bit. Jeffrey Epstein was not primarily a British scandal! So far we've removed a Prince from the Royal family, fired our US ambassador who was one of the most important political figures of the last few decades and banned the CEO of Barclays from the financial industry..
One by one, Europeans mentioned in the Epstein files who still hold political office are beginning to resign or are being forced out of office.

Meanwhile, ruled by an administration almost entirely made up of Epstein associates, the US carries on as if nothing really happened.
