If the law can lock up the get away driver for simply driving a car while not knowing someone just got shot in a robbery, it sure as hell should be able to lock up anyone knowingly covering up for child sex trafficking.

Vance, Johnson, Patel, Bondi, Miller, Vought, Thiel... the list goes on.
Also important to remember that everyone involved in the coverup -- whether formally or informally -- is part of the exact same conspiracy against the victims and against the nation.

You ever need to find an email in Google, and go in and type it in and hit enter, then search through the results for a minute and boom, done?

Trump's name was in Epstein's emails. The GOP knew this entire time, from the beginning. The DOJ knew. The FBI knew. Vance fucking knew.

One big cover-up.
A #WhiteHouse correspondent asked Karoline Leavitt: "What was the president doing with Virginia Giuffre for hours at Epstein's house?"

The silence was deafening

Russian propaganda state TV:

"The Kyiv dam must be destroyed. Kyiv must be flooded, Kharkiv annihilated. Dnipro, Mykolaiv, Odesa, and Sumy wiped from the face of the earth."

People ask Ukrainians why don't we "make peace" meaning surrender. This is why.

Nov 12, 1969: Seymour Hersh, independent journalist, breaks his story on the cover up of Vietnam's My Lai Massacre, where over 500 civilians were murdered by American soldiers - some also mutilated and/or raped.

Only one soldier served time, barely.

This is why we need independent journalists.

Nov 11, 1923: Adolf Hitler is arrested in Munich for a failed coup known as the Beer Hall Putsch. He was sentenced to five years in prison but served only 9 months. Later, well... WW2.

History has a way of repeating itself: see Trump's failed coup, pathetic consequences, & return to racist power.

How many times do you have to actively engineer your own loss before you wake up to the fact that you need to quit pretending and just go the fuck home?

Democratic leadership needs to go the fuck home. Stop pretending you care.

Nov 10, 1898: A mob of 2,000 white supremacists in Wilmington, NC overthrow the city's biracial government, encouraged by wealthy white business owners wanting to root out black-owned competitors.

Estimates of 20-60 black folk were killed & another 2,000 fled, never to return. No one was charged.

Pulling yourself up by your bootstraps is only fair when everyone else is wearing the same boots.

Today's entitled class has been carried on the back of poor people, but still complains about them as "lazy welfare people."

The cold truth? The US welfare state subsidizes the rich.
Casual reminder that the myth of “pulling yourself up by your bootstraps” is a cruel hoax designed to convince poor people from all walks of life that the injustices they face are a result of their own actions, rather than an oppressive system rigged against them.

Yes, Mr. President: You’re right. We do have “the worst health care” of any major country.

Despite spending twice as much per capita, we are the only major country not to guarantee health care to all as a human right.

The solution: Medicare for All.

Where would you be right now if America had universal health care? Would you stay at your job? Would your friends & loved ones be better off? Breathe easier?

For most Americans, universal healthcare would substantially increase their way of life. Private insurance only benefits stockholders & CEOs.

He doesn't care that other people die. He doesn't care that children are hungry. He doesn't care if Americans suffer.

He just Doesn't. Care.

Nov 9, 1989: For the first time in almost 30 years, East Germany allowed citizens to cross through the Berlin wall & into West Germany. Officially, roughly 400 people died trying to cross this border, while unofficial counts are much higher.

Border walls cause harm & don't work. Cough cough Trump.

GOP Ethics

Great American values, eh?

Nov 8, 1937: Nazis open the official museum exhibit "Der ewige Jude," which promoted false narratives & stereotypes about Jews in order to justify governmental persecution of them.

This included them stealing jobs, instigating more crime, & being lazy.

Stephen Miller had to learn somewhere, right?

Just remember: the holiday flights home for tens of thousands of parents and grandparents are getting canceled this week so that Republicans don't have to face how many flights Trump took thirty years ago to have sex with children.
Shutdowns freeze more than the government. The ripple hits airports, paychecks, and dinner tables across the country.

But we are PROUD of everyone holding the line for healthcare.

If you hit a delay remember: be kind to travel workers. And if you can donate to your local food bank, now’s the time.

Nov 7, 1916: Jeannette Rankin wins the first seat for a woman to the US House of Representatives.

Her bill was the first allowing women as citizens without their husbands, as well as government hygiene classes on maternity & infancy.

Over 100 years later, people still reject both of those ideas.

While millions of Americans went hungry … the government thought it necessary to waste tax dollars prosecuting a man for throwing a sandwich.

They’re wasting money trying to determine if a sandwich can be a weapon.

A sandwich is a sandwich. You know what it can do?

Feed people. Let’s do that.

I managed tech for the US’s largest publishers for years. I fled because it was clear the billionaires will sooner let their publications die than print the truth. We need new presses and that is the only way out of this, and I don’t see any journalists interested in building that outside Substack.

Nov 6, 1943: Ukraine liberates Kyiv from German occupation, as part of a larger Soviet push during WW2. Both sides sustained heavy losses, but Germany would go on to lose their territory at the hands of those defending the area.

Ukrainians have been doing this underdog shit for a long, long time.

I’m old enough to remember when SCOTUS stopped the counting of ballots and called an election, and all the subsequent war crimes abroad and losses of civil liberties at home. There is a direct line from Dick Cheney to the mess we’re in today. Never forget that.

There are at least 11 million Americans that identify as deaf or severely non-hearing, & 37 million with mild to worse hearing loss.

Trump's efforts to shut them out of briefings or ask questions is just another sign of his complete disdain for disabled Americans.

We need more decisions like this.
