“The fact that I’m even having to sue and fight in a court of law for this is mind-boggling,” @katiephang.bsky.social told me. “I should be joined by every member of Congress...in saying, ‘Shame on Todd Blanche for continuing to protect the Epstein elite.’” open.substack.com/pub/america/...

“My parents died so fuck yours too,” is quite the argument against reasonable healthcare
21,000 trades since Trump took office. A thousand more in June alone. Every one of those trades makes Trump richer. None of them lower your rent, your grocery bill, or your health insurance. That’s the whole point of the office to him now. Get richer. #TrumpsCorruptionCostsUS
In a world full of the destructive kookiness of people like RFK Jr, strive to fill it with a little of the restorative kindness of Dolly Parton.
Reminder: Dolly Parton helped fund the Moderna vaccine for COVID.

In the history of the US, the military has never been by a bigger group of incompetent fools as they are today. There is no transparency nor respect for active duty members. Draft dodger Trump treats them like “suckers and losers”. #ProudBlue#Voices4Victory #OneV1 apple.news/AvkLaFF_JTfe...

Congratulating people for being honest in secret when you know they are dishonest to the public is such an odd thing to do.
Ossoff on Mike Collins: "What he's saying to the people of Georgia is after cutting their healthcare, throwing 300k of them off their health insurance, doubling health insurance premiums for more than 1 mil Georgians, he's then going to take their tax dollars and pay it out to violent criminals."
My favorite First Lady. The first truly modern First Lady. I remember Mamie Eisenhower, I’ve watched all the First Ladies since her. Michelle Obama is the first to truly hold her own, in that role. Absolutely independent at all times. Her eyes never fail. True to herself. ❤️
Michelle Obama, exactly as she is. Beautiful, graceful, intelligent, and strong woman. Joy is resistance. Grace is power. #SheShed
BREAKING: Court orders Todd Blanche to appear in court next week to provide missing docs supporting key redactions of alleged victims, to explain why handwritten FBI interview notes of an alleged victim of Donald Trump remain withheld, & to provide a date when he’ll give the missing redaction log.
Parnas: How much money was funneled through these banks to Epstein? Wyden: I think it’s certainly well over a billion dollars. One of the things we pointed out yesterday is that Deutsche Bank failed to properly report to the Treasury Department more than $250 million in suspicious transactions
Republicans have the majority in the Senate and House and they're telling you they cannot rein Trump in, so stop giving them power. They're telling you they refuse to use it.
Wildfires don’t recognize borders, and neither does compassion!🇨🇦🇲🇽 Thank you to the courageous firefighters from Mexico who have traveled far from home to help protect British Columbia! Your bravery, sacrifice & solidarity will never be forgotten!❤️🔥 #BCWildfires #ThankYou #Canada #Mexico #SheShed
If you’ve ever taken the oath to uphold the Constitution, this is the time to live up to it.
Trump would rather see his AG nomination fail than give up his IRS immunity and insurrectionist fund, GDP just came in way below expectations, and the war keeps escalating. Also: UEFA just voted to boycott the World Cup over a Kushner-led plan to privatize it. Your midday update is here:

Stating that Trump won the 2020 election isn’t funny. It’s a lie. Hinting that Trump might run again in 2028 isn’t funny. It’s a lie. And what ICE is doing on our streets right now isn’t funny. It’s un-American and a disgrace. Today’s show.👇 podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/t...

A 7-year-old wants to go to school. A 9-year-old begs to leave. A 12-year-old is told to drink the water that's making children sick. These are children imprisoned at Dilley under Donald Trump. I am demanding Trump #ShutDownDilley and free the children.
