Facts suck, if you're delusional and in a cult.
They need to hammer down relentlessly on this. They can't become overconfident, like they did with Hillary in 2016.
Every vote to confirm Todd Blanche as attorney general is a vote to continue the coverup of the Epstein Files.
BREAKING: Cornyn and Tillis have confirmed they'll vote for Blanche after his order rescinding the "anti-weaponization fund." Any concern they claimed to have had for survivors was performative and has now been abandoned. Ultimately, they chose to bend the knee to the Trump administration.
300,000 Haitians legally living in the U.S. have officially lost their Temporary Protected Status this week. ICE is reportedly planning to target Haitian communities and fast-track deportations to Haiti, which is controlled by violent gangs and deep in crisis. Trump’s cruelty knows no bounds.
Epstein survivor: I found my name in two places in the first Epstein Files release. In the next release, the redactions were far worse. The Files displayed my name, phone number, and more. These documents contain disturbing yet incomplete accounts of my abuse. It was humiliating.
The two ICE agents who murdered a civilian in Biddeford, Maine today. Let's make them famous.
Ana Navarro: Let’s remember that lCE has kiIIed before, just kiIIed again today. A lot of times has lied about it, has explained it in a way that does not fit the video that we see and, testimony from people on the ground. Over 52 people have died in lCE custody.

Omar Yaghi, who won last year's Nobel Prize in chemistry, is leaving the US for Tsinghua University in China. The stars like Yaghi, who was at UC Berkeley, can leave. China benefits. Trump and Vought and Kennedy are killing US science for no compelling reason.
Who is going to tell @MarshaBlackburn she’s the radical? They support health care, funding schools, taxing the rich, no more bombs… she supports Israel’s genocide, a president who tried to end our democracy, racist immigration policies, forcing kids to give birth, censorship…
Friends, they’re not even trying to hide their voter suppression. ⬇️
You notice that the criminal-in-charge who sues everyone for everything is drop dead quiet about this. Says a lot.

There’s a lot to unpack with the Iran negotiations, but here are the big takeaways: Kushner is there to work out the best deal for his own business interests, not the best deal for the U.S. “He is a fundamentally corrupted actor in these negotiations.” - Chris Murphy 1/2
Ossoff: While the people pay more than ever for groceries and housing and health care, he builds a monument to himself. While a cancer patient loses health coverage, he adorns his office in gold. Where in Scripture are we commanded to deny care to the sick…

Michelle Obama: "No one has the right to sit in judgment of who is American enough. And that's why, folks, we simply don't have the luxury or time to be cynical or complacent."
Social Security is earned, not given. We paid into it our entire working lives. Speaker Johnson knows how unpopular cuts would be. That’s why these conversations happen behind closed doors instead of out in the open. We earned these benefits. We’ll fight to keep them. #HandsOffSocialSecurity
