It has been 40 days since @oversightdemocrats.house.gov successfully subpoenaed Trump's DOJ to release the Epstein files.
Two weeks ago, we heard harrowing accounts from the survivors who have been denied justice for decades.
Survivors deserve truth, healing, & accountability. Release the files.

"Why should I care about U.S. Space Command being transferred to Alabama? I hate the military-industrial complex. We spend too much money on defense. Why does it matter which rich people get richer off it?"
There are a number of reasons you should care, but you really only need one.

🚨 We need to pay attention to what’s happening at the CDC. This isn’t bureaucratic drama — it’s a political takeover of our public health agency. The fallout will hit vaccines, outbreaks, and crisis response.
Our health is on the line. We can’t look away.

This is excellent. In three minutes she explains how democracies become dictatorships. It's happened so many times, yet in each country, most people said, 'it can't happen here'
#StaceyAbrams explains how to achieve an #autocracy in 10 steps.
We're at step 9.
The military is in our streets. Is our democracy worth the effort to defend it?

There are no red states, no blue states, only purple, from Idaho fuchsia to Vermont violet. And in every state there are children, non-citizens, and prisoners who can't vote. In every state where one candidate won, a bunch of people voted for the other candidate. And so forth.

I don’t think anyone is prepared for what they just did w/ ICE.
This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined.
It is setting up to make what’s happening now look like child’s play. And people are disappearing.

If the Senate's budget is enacted, millions will lose health insurance, millions will fall into poverty, and the national debt will increase by $3.3T.
All of this to provide a major tax cut mainly to the rich and big corporations.
There is no justification for this.

While bombing Iran is bad for Trump’s poll numbers, starting a war and creating chaos is good for Trump as an authoritarian. Authoritarians exploit chaos to claim emergency powers, deploy the military domestically, and undermine free and fair elections.
These attacks must be viewed from this lens.
