Do you really think a Department of Justice that lies to judges about grand jury indictments is going to be open and honest about the Epstein Files?

This!! Over and over again! Proud of Mike Bennet.
Michael Bennet: I really am a Bolshevik. I believe we should provide universal healthcare to all Americans as a right. There is no reason not to do it in the richest country in the world, especially if we can do it at half of the cost of care we are providing now.

In any other country, if federal agents fired upon journalists when unprovoked — what would we call it?
If federal agents marched down streets demanding papers — what would we say?
Authoritarianism — let’s not pretend it’s something else when it happens in our American cities.

A Black man and a homeless man were found hanging from trees in Mississippi yesterday, for those who haven’t seen yet because it’s barely made it out of local news.

Why aren’t the Epstein victims front page news? Even the news organizations don’t care about protecting women. It’s sickening.

It’s pretty darn sad when you start agreeing with Rand Paul.
Rand Paul: "The reason we have trials & we don't automatically assume guilt is what if we make a mistake and they happen to be people fleeing the Venezuelan dictator? ... off our coast it isn't our policy just to blow people up ... even the worst people in our country, they still get a trial."

This is oligarchy. This is obscene.
While 60% live paycheck to paycheck & kids go hungry, Jeff Bezos, worth $230 billion, goes to Venice on his $500 million yacht for a $20 million wedding & spends $5 million on a ring while his real tax rate is just 1.1%.
End this oligarchy.

Yeah, because they’ve handled the firing of tens of thousands of government workers so responsibly.

As a criminal defense attorney, the vast majority of my cases were NOT immigrants.
So let's stop pretending immigrants are the problem when there's a 34-count convicted felon sitting in the White House.
The hypocrisy is outrageous.
