I guess we weren't clear when we told the DOJ to release ALL of the Epstein files. So, let's try this again:
The Forgotten Occupation, an amazing documentary about the American occupation of Haiti, is now available to rent or buy; you can find it on Vimeo, Google Play, Amazon, YouTube, and pretty much anywhere you like to watch films : tv.apple.com/us/movie/the...
Given articles I wrote for the DCLine with the help of a Spotlight DC investigative reporting grant, child welfare systems should engage in aggressive methods to protect children everywhere.

Time to retell my worst first date story:
We're having drinks and a little while in she asks if I know who Andrew Wakefield is?
I launch into a real rant: call him a liar, list off all the errors in his work, his patents and other conflicts of interest, anyway, long story short he's her godfather.
All I see on my Twitter timeline are reporters parsing every quote from AOC in Germany, trying to mock them for incoherence or inaccuracy, while a demented old man who canβt string sentences together or stay awake sits in the Oval, while the legacy media happily sanewashes his quotes.
Whoever id doing Sen. Booker's social media should be removed, fired or something!
The essence of the Big Lie
Read and share all over..he nails it
This is the interview Donald Trump didnβt want you to see.
His FCC refused to air my interview with Stephen Colbert.
Trump is worried weβre about to flip Texas.
$4 BILLION β So corrupt.
There is no debating this. Anyone who says otherwise is telling on themselves.
"Two-month-old baby βchoking on his own vomitβ while detained in Dilley βHis life is in danger,β U.S. Rep. Joaquin Castro said about newborn Juan NicolΓ‘s. The child fell ill after spending almost a month β or half his life β in a San Antonio-area family detention facility."

π¨π¨ Trump MURDERED an ICU nurse THEN called him a terrorist!
Alex Pretti saved lives for a living!!
Trump repaid this American citizen by pumping 10 BULLETS into him and is now lying about it
Anyone who supports this brutal lynching should be considered an accomplice and dealt with accordingly π¨π¨
Did we really need another sign of CBS Bari Weiss' traitorous behavior and incompetence? I was sold when she appointed tony dokoupil. Help us!
Is anyone else just totally despairing about the amount of AI slop everywhere you look? From fake social media accounts to fake videos, badly written press releases and companies racing to remove human creativity and passion from all aspects of their work. It all feels very bleak.
Good grief. Everyone knows they were just friends.
No Democratic Governor should attend any meeting at the WH, including the dinner unless every Democratic governor is invited. Demonstrate some self-respect & dignity.

It is coming up. Not sure if there's enough votes or people to push it through yet, but it keeps coming up. Hopefully we will get there.

Fascinating. Although can we also teach them to love the thing in plain speak?

Schumer is such a weak leader. The cry from American citizens is to abolish ICE. Senate Democrats should stand with their constituents--they owe nothing to Republicans.

If ICE agents are afraid to do the job & require masks, then they shouldn't be hired to do the job. The people they confront-citizens & immigrants- deserve to see their faces & know their names. Law enforcement around the country follow that simple policy; ICE agents should be made to do the same.
I am sad they didnβt just let Ilhan Omar have a go at him
We ended the Republican majority in the Minnesota State House and made history last night.
trump saying "she probably had herself sprayed, knowing her" is genuine confirmation his assassination attempt was faked

Senator L. Louise Lucas: βI have the utmost respect for Senator Kaine & Senator Warner β but we do not need βcoachingβ on redistricting coming from a cuck chair in the corner β how about you all stay focused on the fascist in the White House & let us handle redistricting in Virginia. 10-1β
"I was only following orders" wasn't an acceptable excuse at the Nuremberg trials & won't work now.
