There is no politician, no business tycoon, no celebrity folk hero, no personal friend or relative I am remotely interested in protecting from damaging disclosures regarding their involvement with Jeffrey Epstein. Let the chips fall entirely where they may.

Keeping Epstein's client list a secret protects sexual predators from facing accountability

Anyone arguing against its release is continuing a pattern of exploitation and abuse of child sex trafficking victims

Have just realized that the silly “Bezos wants to buy Vogue as a lavish wedding gift for his bride” story that’s been circulating is inaccurate - Bezos wants to buy Condé Nast which owns The New Yorker,Teen Vogue, Wired & Arts Technica because he is an oligarch who wants to crush all dissent.

This bill if passed by the House will shorten the lives of millions of Americans and bring the republic to the point of collapse. It’s a gift to oligarchs at home and enemies abroad.

AOC: "On this point of tax on tips, as one of the only people in this body who has lived off of tips, I want to tell you a little bit about the scam ... the cap on that is $25,000 while you're jacking up taxes on people who make less than $50,000 across the US ... while kicking them off the ACA."

The Wisconsin Supreme Court has struck down the state’s 176-year-old abortion ban. The court’s liberal majority ruled 4-3 on Wednesday that the ban is no longer valid because newer abortion restrictions superseded it.

The Trump administration’s funding freeze could wreck summer programs for low-income families and wipe out after-school programs next year. Over $6 billion in federal grants is being withheld, impacting summer learning, after-school care, English language instruction, adult literacy, and more.

Pcall your Senators, tell them to vote no!
Sun’s up!
Republicans still have no plan.
Legend is they at least at last have a bill.
Just not the votes for it.
We’re on Vote 45.

Trump expected to visit means lets grow this protest.

Please if you are able to, look up the organized protests and join when you can.

Be safe and be loud!
Trump is expected to visit the abomination known as “Alligator Alcatraz” this week. A grotesque tent city intended to house undocumented immigrants in the Florida Everglades. 2 groups are suing in federal court in an attempt to close it down.

Rs moved forward on the big, ugly bill to rip healthcare coverage from 17M people, deprive millions of food assistance, and use that money to pay (only partially!) for gigantic tax cuts for the super-rich. Senate Rs want to cut more than $1 trillion from Medicaid.

1/4 📢 CDC funding for 2025 is months late, leaving health depts stranded. CDC leaders told NPR the delay appears intentional - “a deliberate effort to grind us to a halt.” We are not surprised 😡. This is a public health emergency manufactured by HHS.
'Where's our money?' CDC grant funding is moving so slowly layoffs are happening
The state and local health departments that rely on CDC funding say the money is not coming in on time and no one can tell them why. Some are laying off staff.

Please contact your senators (especially Murkowski, Collins and Hawley) to tell them you don't want this asshole in charge of enforcing federal labor laws. #AltCitizen #AltGov
🚨 #ALTCITIZEN ACTION ALERT

Jonathan Berry's confirmation hearing, along with several other horrible nominees, is June 18 at 10am in 430 Dirksen. He is a TERRIBLE pick to serve as solicitor of labor, DOL's top lawyer and enforcer of federal labor laws.
