Transportation secretary Sean Duffy benefited from millions in corporate donations to make a show about road trips. But two months after Duffy said the show would premiere, it doesn't appear to exist at all. My latest False Flag @thebulwark.com: www.thebulwark.com/p/what-the-h...

ICE agents violently attacked Dr. Norma Bowe in front of Delaney Hall. She was there to run a mobile health clinic. ICE's cruelty knows no bounds — in or out of detention centers. @aclu-nj.org joined dozens of ACLU affiliates to represent people who were harmed by federal immigration agents.

This nurse brings healthcare to people outside a detention center. She says ICE agents assaulted her.

What's the difference between a landlord who sneaks into your apartment to rifle through your underwear drawer and an AG who sues for your abortion records? The state health director keeping a spreadsheet of women’s periods isn’t any less creepy than the abusive ex who still tracks your location.

Epstein survivor Dani Bensky: You can’t say that you want to make sure sex offenders and sex traffickers are behind bars and then vote for him. Every vote for Blanche is really a vote against survivors. If Thom Tillis wants to call, I’m happy to talk to him. We’ve been trying to get in touch

"That's almost word for word what they told us when we were sold the war in Iraq. Remember 2003?" -- another Pete Buttigieg masterclass on Fox News. There is no Democrat better at communicating to that audience.
