BREAKING: U.S. wages and salaries fall to 43% of gross domestic income, near the lowest share since records began in 1929… You’re not imagining it, you’re being deliberately ripped off, by the Epstein class. Simple as that. Mad yet?! 😎✨
RFKJr claims Lyme disease was created by scientists,which is the closest he’s come to admitting that science exists. Meanwhile, Ötzi the Iceman, who died more than 5.3K years ago, had Lyme disease. Apparently prehistoric humans are part of the conspiracy. Get me off this timeline
The left: we want the Epstein files The right: we want the Epstein files The center: we want the Epstein files Trump: best I can do for you is Fauci’s diary, some lies about the reflecting pool, and a failed war in Iran
We are deciding whether we want to be a country of ethnic cleansing and concentration camps.

MS NOW: Conservative media figures who supported trump in 2024 have since come out against him over the past 4 months. “I can see how Hitler happened.” “Yeah, it’s a cult.” Good going, guys. Better late than never! Too bad you didn’t figure this out sooner. #ProudBlue #Voices4Victory
APPLEBAUM: Witkoff and Kushner had a pretty profound effect on how peace negotiations been conducted, and it’s not positive. They prolonged war in Ukraine because their attitude was, "We’re going to Moscow to do deals with Russian companies." Russians were delighted by this,
Todd Blanche's last-minute promise won over Senators Cornyn & Tillis, but shouldn't have. The "deal" leaves Trump's tax immunity intact. It confirms what the Senators should have already known about Blanche's lack of fitness to be AG. My analysis: open.substack.com/pub/joycevan...

I’m backing @govpritzker.illinois.gov’s effort to save our Great Lakes. For nearly two years, the Trump administration has frozen funds for cities and states that didn’t vote for him. This is happening again with the Brandon Road Interbasin Project.
Governor JB Pritzker@govpritzker.illinois.gov · 5d agoIt's time for the Trump Administration to uphold its obligations on the Brandon Road Interbasin Project. Illinois has spearheaded this to protect the entire Great Lakes, but they continue to throw up roadblocks. Stop playing political games and move this project forward.
KASPAROV: Everything went contrary to Putin's expectations. Kyiv was not captured in 3 days, nor even in 3 years. Moreover, Ukraine demonstrated ability to act as a free state, to very dynamically develop its defense industry.

Her batting average was always good, it's improved substantially, but she is overmatched here. She should've been better prepared.
Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez@ocasio-cortez.house.gov · 2d agoThere is pervasive corruption across our healthcare and agricultural systems that defy party lines. I meet with MAHA activists because a lot of their concerns are bipartisan issues that major corporations paint as partisan. The fight isn't left and right, it's top and bottom.
ICE blocked legal observers, then pulled a gun and a taser on others, and then blocked them in claiming they were blocking the road.
This is devastating
Allison Gill@muellershewrote.com · 2d agoBREAKING: EXCLUSIVE: Five months ago, we learned that ICE seized drawings and letters from children in the Dilley ICE concentration camp. I sued under the Freedom of Information Act. Today, I got responsive documents. www.muellershewrote.com/p/breaking-e...

Kyle Griffin@kylegriffin1.bsky.social · 3d agoBREAKING: Todd Blanche just issued a formal order that appears to terminate Trump's $1.8 billion slush fund and limit the scope of the IRS audit immunity deal applying to Trump and his family.
You can either tell the truth or you can work for Trump. You can’t do both.

This deal solidifies the Trump family's immunity from tax audits. Under no circumstances should the American people believe that Trump‘s former personal attorney will stop his schemes to funnel taxpayer dollars to his allies and supporters.
Kyle Griffin@kylegriffin1.bsky.social · 2d agoFLAG: Trump gets to keep tax immunity for himself, his sons, and the Trump Organization under the new 'deal' struck by Todd Blanche. The new order also reaffirms that Trump won't have to pay any taxes he might have owed the IRS.
