BREAKING: Donald Trump reverses course and tells Republicans to vote to release the Epstein files.
I am very skeptical, however. He’s the President. He can release the files.

A reminder that the Epstein files aren't a distraction from the oligarchy. They're an integral part of it.

⚠️ Trigger warning ⚠️ This needs to be shouted from the rooftops. This is unacceptable
Not many people are talking about the children being harmed by #ICELawlessness but it's important to talk about.
What's happening to these kids is being paid for by our tax dollars.
We're paying for the torture of children.
I know this is beyond grim, but we must let people know about this!

Lots of hard, shitty lessons being learned from this presidency. And one of the many I hope you're learning is, white supremacy is incompatible with reality, and cannot exist without historical revisionism.
1/ The US Government has quietly removed a memorial to Black soldiers who died in World War II from the Netherlands American Cemetery in Margraten, South Limburg. The move follows a complaint from the right-wing Heritage Foundation to the American Battle Monuments Commission. ⬇️
