the main reason to go after the rich is that if you don’t the entire structure of your society is predicated on the whims of people who are entirely disconnected from ordinary life

billionaires are simply too dangerous to exist, and any budgetary stuff that comes out of it is just a bonus

This is the way I hope to see Superman and Batman interact in the new DCU. These comic panels hit so perfectly on their mutual respect and deep friendship. And I love it.

Raskin: Trump Mentioned β€œMore Than a Million Times” in Unredacted Epstein Files Raskin said a document in the files also undermines Trump’s claim that he kicked Epstein out of Mar-a-Lago.

Trump has repeatedly claimed that he had β€œnothing to do with” Jeffrey Epstein. But his name reportedly appears in the unredacted files at least a million times, Rep. Jamie Raskin said on Tuesday after being granted access to the documents.

Rep. Neguse: β€œThe man in that video, the one…allegedly yelling 'kill em' at police officers on Jan. 6. His name is Jared Wise."

Bondi: "He does work for us."

Neguse: "This is who you choose…to hire at DOJ?"

Bondi: "I believe he was pardoned by President Trump."

Jeffrey Epstein files: don’t be fooled. Millions of files are still unreleased | Moira Donegan Federal prosecutors had identified 6 million files that were β€˜potentially responsive’ to the law, but only released 3.5. Why?

Trump has got his back against the wall.
Β 
That's the only reason why he is willing to go to extreme lengths to distract and deflect from the Epstein files.
Β 
But here's the thing- The DOJ STILL hasn't released all the files...
Β 
Release ALL the files NOW.

Britain has dethroned a prince, forced Mandelson to resign, & lost confidence in Starmer because Rep. Thomas Massie & I forced the release of the Epstein files.

What is America doing to hold the Epstein class accountable?

We need to haul these powerful men before Congress.

To Jeffrey Epstein Ryhs Kimmitt Marisa Frank and Lila Walker from Peggy 
"To whom this may concern Rhys...what was not clear?"
"I was very explicit with my staff and you about TWO tickets for the DINNER for Jeffrey Epstein. What genius filled the ticket order? Why wasn't his name on the DINNER list at the door? What genius thought my friend would not have a plus one when we ordered TWO tickets. What robot at the door would not let him in? This has ruined what was a perfect everning for all of us. I am incredibly emarabassed by the rigid behavior of some child minded door guard. Jeffrey is a captain of international finance and a close personal friend of mine. I know this was not done on purpose but it still is terribly upsetting. Please find out who did this and send an apology note. Thank you so much. Peggy. Jeffrey...of all nights, I left my two phones home, I was actually looking for you all night, I was with Soon-Yi and she thought you were having dinner with her husband. I am so very sorry. What a screw up.

Redirecting...

Feds showed up to the home of Minneapolis independent journalist Georgia Fort & arrested her overnight, apparently for filming the church protest.

I just want to make it clear that it was *Border Patrol* agents who murdered Alex Pretti, and those fuckers murder people regularly here along the border.

Renee GoodΒ΄s murderer is also a former Border Patrol agent (currently ICE).

Disband ALL the paramilitary groups and prosecute every member.

This is Liam Ramos. The five year old that ICE took from a Minneapolis school and sent BY HIMSELF WITHOUT HIS FAMILY to a detention facility in Texas. There are monsters among us and they are wearing masks, carrying guns, and work for the US government.

I remember saying months ago that the reason you don't see Proud Boys anymore is because they're all ICE agents now and I had a bunch of people poo-poo me and say I was reaching.

And now the leader of the Proud Boys is in the list of ICE agents that a whistleblower just leaked.

Moulton: "When we had briefings on Venezuela, we asked, 'Are you going to invade the country?' We were told no. 'Do you plan to put troops on the ground?' We were told no. 'Do you intend regime change in VZ?' We were told no. So in a sense, we have been briefed, we've just been completely lied to"
