In other news, the woman who rescued my Nathan, who recently passed 💔, has another cocker spaniel who desperately needs a home. I can’t afford another dog yet, so if you’re a good person with a loving home, please consider Romeo in Rock Hill, SC. DM me and I’ll give you contact info.
OMG, Trump is such an insane asshole. I hear his voice in the other room going on and on and on, and he’s just telling lie after lie and he sounds like a mafia don who is drunk.

We can’t shut him up soon enough. 🤢

James Garfield was murdered by a man who thought he deserved a government job. Chester Arthur—once a machine politician—responded by helping create civil service reform.

Today’s GOP wants to undo that progress and return to patronage politics.

It's been almost three weeks now and they still haven't released the Epstein files because withholding exculpatory evidence is clearly what you do when you're "innocent."

Rand Paul: "This is an insane policy. It's inconsistent. It's not war. It's not the way we've ever done this. If we can blow up a boat in the ocean, what about when they get to Miami & put it in a truck? Can you shoot a grenade launcher at the truck? No! We arrest people b/c sometimes we're wrong."

lol. Calling their bluff. These aren’t part of the 300G of data the justice department has (and could have released anytime.) the deadline is 12/19. Tick tock, Pamela Jo.

They're using the confinement box, one of the most horrific methods of CIA torture in the post-9/11 black sites, against migrants now. This is the direct result of the lack of consequences for the architects of the torture program. Either there will be criminal penalties for this or it will expand.

Amnesty International, interviewing migrant detainees, identifies use of the confinement box. There can be no denying it is a torture prison

The Epstein Files STILL have not been released.

If he wasn’t in them.

He’d have released them.

Hilarious.

Anyone with common sense knows a Trump pardon means nothing outside the U.S. Oops.

The United States gives far too much power, money, and influence to silly people with heads full of nonsense.

Rep. Adelita Grijalva was pepper-sprayed by ICE agents during a raid last week.

Remember: ICE is getting $170B in new funding from Trump's Big Ugly Bill and lowering its hiring standards.

If Trump's thugs can do this to a member of Congress, they can do it to you.

It is newsworthy that the president of the United States is increasingly verbally abusive of women reporters and he should be asked about it.

NEW: We sent a letter demanding that ICE end immigration detention at Fort Bliss, the same facility used to intern people of Japanese descent during World War II.

People detained at this facility are denied adequate food, medical care, and are physically and sexually abused by the guards.

Russian security services are allegedly planning provocations disguised as protests. Source: Pravda Gerashchenko.

As protests might be staged in major Ukrainian cities, families of soldiers are being drawn into a dangerous game of public manipulation.
