Dozens of victims of Jeffrey Epstein have filed a lawsuit against Pam Bondi, accusing her of helping conceal key details during the early handling of the Epstein investigation.

It's nice when people in power call a spade a spade.

Since it’s Pete Hegseth does this make it β€œwarfare welfare”?

One in five child care workers are immigrants. When you raid and deport them, you aren't just upending an individual’s life. You’re closing child care centers, reducing capacity, and driving up costs for every working parent in America.

What it was like reviewing the unredacted Epstein files at the DOJ: "There were signs posted [by the DOJ] that said we had no right to privacy"

What’s β€œthe real world,' Senator? Isn’t it the one where you & your buddies create policies that enshrine poverty?

If we want fewer road deaths in the US, we should build more viable public transit.

The US-Canadian Road Safety Gap Is Getting Wider Despite similar infrastructure and vehicle fleets, the US and Canada are going in very different directions when it comes to traffic safety. A new study breaks down the divergence.

What about the physical enormity of the US? Does that force people to drive more?

No, it doesn't.

Canada is an even more spacious country, and residents drive a lot less (and are <1/2 as likely to die in a crash).

I was just talking to a European abt this! I told them, β€œAmericans treat cars like their living room. They are way too comfortable inside a car. Meanwhile, there are fatal crashes coast to coast every day. This dissonance seems particularly American."

Me, I avoid being in cars as much as possible.

I am furious at DT & his hawk cheerleaders about this. Anyone who lived through the 9/11 era could predict this headline.

At tonight's meeting, Allegheny County Council passed Ordinance 13809-26, unamended, with a vote of 11-3 and one abstention. The ordinance bans county agencies and employees from cooperating with ICE.

Allegheny County Council just passed Ordinance 13809-26 banning county agencies and employees from cooperating with ICE. Pittsburgh DSA turned out our members to tonight's meeting to send one message: Allegheny County stands in solidarity with our immigrant neighbors. We will abolish ICE!

Another reminder, Donald Trump is a convicted felon and a suspected paedophile with strong links to Jeffrey Epstein.

JUST IN: Democrats flip a seat in the New Hampshire state House.

Dem Bobbi Boudman has won today’s special election, NHJournal reports.

(Boudman was the Dem nominee in 2024 & lost by 14%; Trump won here by 9%.)

This is Dems’ third legislative flip so far this year, after Texas and Arkansas.

The bottom line is Trump sacrificed 8 American lives (& counting) and more than 1,000 Iranian lives (& counting) for nothing. He hurt the US & global economies, destabilized the Middle East, & will pull out with the same Iranian regime in power. There's no silver lining.

A senseless, criminal waste
