Democracy is the way. Truth and justice matter.

Russia can end the war today by leaving Ukraine.

Less proud to be an American than I used to be. I really thought we were better than this.

It shouldn’t need to be said, but: Kristi Noem as DHS secretary is not a prosecutor. Criminal charging decisions should only be coming from the Justice Department. This is like saying the Commerce Secretary “ordered” the arrest of someone.
Kristi Noem personally ordered the arrest of Emmy-winning journalist Georgia Fort. She then sent two dozen armed, masked federal agents to Fort’s home at night. Two dozen, to arrest one woman.

Fort’s three children were inside the home, terrified.

Also it's instructive to realize that the note from Chomsky advising Epstein on PR about his child sex abuse is a reply to Epstein advising Chomsky on PR about disinheriting his children. They're advising each other how to get away with being awful people.

No scholar, no matter how "brilliant," deserves a pass for treating others with such callous disregard.
Remember my thread from last week about "hysteria"? Well, the latest traunch of Epstein files suggests that Noam Chomsky missed that day in History class.

[In 2019, after Epstein pled guilty, Chomsky reassured him, saying it was just part of "the hysteria that has developed about abuse of women"]

God bless Donald Trump for gifting Maine Democrats this clip of him telling Susan Collins she’s doing great at her job. Have to imagine it’ll appear in a bunch of ads this fall.

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.

*Volunteered could also be “jumped at an opportunity to get out of ICE while still maintaining her federal job, only to go out of the frying pan into the fire.”
Per Yahoo, Le was previously an immigration court attorney for ICE and volunteered* to help the U.S. Attorney's Office in MN.

And it broke her. “We have no guidance or direction on what we need to do,” Le said.

* "Volunteered" could be her boss saying, "you must volunteer for this."
According to FOX 9, a Minneapolis federal judge demanded to know why DOJ is missing deadlines & AUSA Julie Le said, "The system sucks, this job sucks" & asked to be held in contempt so she could sleep.

PACER shows she got assigned to defend the govt in 88+ cases since Operation Metro Surge started.

"There are numerous meetings between Thiel, Epstein and Russian proxies leading up to the 2016 elections, including meetings at Thiel Capital, run by white nationalist Jeff Giesea—who also ran Thiel’s PAC MAGA3X. Epstein met with Thiel alone ... several times and they had frequent phone calls."
Searching through the Epstein files, and slowly realizing that he was no sideshow, that Russia and the PayPal Mafia were effectively *working for him* is the worst mindfuck I’ve ever experienced.

The Big Reveal is that it was Epstein’s psyop all along.

Trump’s paranoia about the files is not about his sexual deviance. It’s because they prove he’s a loser.

While vetting the Epstein files, the FBI created a list of prominent names mentioned in the documents—and they noted which people had "salacious information" about them in the records. Trump was on the "salacious" list. Bill Clinton was not.

NEW: At least one other FBI special agent connected to the Arctic Frost Trump investigation was pushed out of the bureau today.

The agent was retirement eligible and had previously been a part of the CR-15 federal public corruption squad. He received an award during the first Trump administration.

This is the Trump DOJ saying that no one who views the film of what happened at Broadview would be able to judge us impartially. That's sort of the point. The jurors are entitled to form an opinion after viewing the evidence. bsky.app/profile/jons...
The feds respond.They say they're concerned about the release of evidence in the Broadview conspiracy case because "given the current climate, it will be very difficult to pick an unbiased jury."

(Defendants say they've already agreed not to release info that would identify agents.)

We have got to be into double digits now of civilians assaulted or killed by ICE/CPB who the government shamelessly lied about, smeared as violent terrorists, and then had their whole fabricated narrative completely collapse.
They just blindly shot through the fucking door.

"Additional photographs show damage consistent with a bullet fragment lodged in a bedroom wall down the hallway — suggesting it traveled between a mattress and a portable crib in a room where several small children sleep."
