They are redacting and cutting up the files to protect the asshole and his buddies.
A report reveals the DOJ—after frantically realizing the files would be released—has been paying FBI agents nearly $1M in overtime to work on the “Epstein Transparency Project."

Ostensibly aimed at protecting victims' privacy, the project could also prevent exposing Trump. trib.al/dDWwm2W

"Western civilization," the font, the 11 stars - 11 states in the confederacy, for the record.

Why is this never news? Why are we letting our government agencies do this sort of thing while the news agencies report on hallucinated trade deals and act like everything is normal

So much worse than Bush..
It really is just the white christian nationalism.
Really looks like the United States is about to launch a regime change war against Venezuela with:

-No casus belli
-No authorization from Congress
-No allies or international support
-No plan for a post-Maduro Venezuela
-No preparation for any sort of stabilization or containment of the fallout

America has a major nursing workforce shortage. We need hundreds of thousands more.

Is it any surprise the Trump team has decided to make it *harder* for aspiring nurses to afford nursing school?

Yet another healthcare “policy” that will harm our future.

If the Democratic Party is going to be a tool the people can use to help save us from fascism, we need a Tea Party takeover. Too many Dems = run by dark $$. Schumer et al have to go. Corporate Dems keep failing us bc they are not actually allies against fascism, they are allies WITH the oligarchy.

Clinton-esque Dems have failed rural America for decades. If they had been meeting the needs of the people instead of AIPAC and corporate donors, rural America wouldn't have been susceptible to Tr*mp and his racist bigotry. Tr*mp is the consequence of an oppressed working class and dark $$.

America has an appetite for populism. See @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social and @wilsonforseattle.bsky.social Rural America felt abandoned by Dems who are run by dark $$$. Biden's "prosperity" was not something rural America experienced. They were vulnerable to Tr*mp's lies bc of Dem failings.

Marjorie Taylor Greene is a rat fleeing a sinking ship. She has neither apologized nor taken accountability for any of her reprehensible positions or actions in the past. We all have to be smarter than the moves she's making now.

I cannot get over 86 Dems voting for this House Resolution on the "horrors of socialism". The corporate politicians in both parties are so scared of @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social and @wilsonforseattle.bsky.social and @demsocialists.bsky.social they had to cope themselves into this resolution.

Can we at least condemn something that actually exists in our country? Like fascism?
Ffs.
I can't get over this. We have masked thugs zip-tying children, breaking into homes w/ guns drawn to abduct people w/o warrants, shooting pastors in the head, arresting journalists, terrorizing our cities, and 86 Dems think the thing they need to condemn is the abstract concept of "socialism"??!

This is the correct take. Whoever is refusing to comply with fascism from inside the Coast Guard, thank you.

To everyone holding the line for democracy from within the government, the American people thank you.
Behind this important reversal is a member of the Coast Guard who saw what was happening and had the courage to leak it to the press. That person deserves serious praise.

Hey ABC/Disney...just a reminder that there is no amount of safety you can purchase for yourself under fascism. There is no amount of protection you can secure for yourself by capitulating. Only a fool thinks he can strike an honorable bargain by betraying his people to a liar.
Trump said on Tuesday that broadcasting licenses used by affiliates of Walt Disney's (DIS.N), opens new tab ABC should be "taken away" after he disagreed with a question posed by a reporter for the network.
