Q: "Why are White House officials…meeting with Rep. Boebert in an effort to try to get her to not sign this petition calling for the release of the [Epstein] files?"

Absolutely sick of these thugs standing like they are ready to empty an assault rifle into a Chicago playground at a moment’s notice.

Next Dem president needs to put all these GI Joe wannabes on desk duty, armed with nothing more than a cheap plastic water gun.

This behavior is vile.
NEW: Footage of a US citizen in Chicago being rammed then dragged from her car on her way to work.

Abducted, with no warrant, her family couldn’t find her for hours.

She was later released with NO CHARGE.

A DHS statement said she “violently resisted arrest, injuring two officers”.

You decide…

The USDA has funding set aside to keep food assistance programs running during emergencies.

Trump just won’t release it.

440,000 Minnesotans - and millions more Americans - will pay the price.

Very sad to see what’s happening at Indiana. The school has decided it wanted to muzzle its student newspaper to only print fluffy campus life stories in special sections. When they pushed back, the school cut all print funding and fired their staff director

In the middle of the Charlie Kirk assassination US Trump Republicans were busy blocking the release of the Jeffrey Epstein files.
US Senate Republicans blocked an amendment introduced by Democrat Majority Leader Chuck Schumer that would have released the Epstein files.

Only 2 Republican senators, Rand Paul and Josh Hawley, broke ranks and joined Democrats in supporting the measure. #OpDeathEaters

Charlie Kirk said the Epstein files should be released, prior to his assassination, which made a lot of MAGA and Trump’s circle angry.

"The DOJ should immediately move to unseal all the Epstein...Every file should be released to the public."

MADDOW: “Watch what he does, not what he says.”

@maddow.msnbc.com asks the media to zoom out and see Trump firing professionals in law enforcement and the military as a precursor for what he’s planning to ask them to do — and imagine if it was happening in another country.

Extraordinary new detail about the FBI purge.
*Senior officials were asked to fire lower level officials tagged by online right wingers as being anti-Trump.
*When they asked for a reason - required by law - they were not given any. They refused. Then they were fired.

Last week, Boston received a letter from AG Bondi threatening to prosecute officials and withhold funds unless we cooperate with carrying out mass deportations.

The US Attorney General asked for a response by today, so here it is: stop attacking our cities to hide your administration’s failures.
