What kind of dumb shit take is this?!
After Oversight Dems voted to subpoena AG Pam Bondi, the DOJ released a portion of previously-withheld documents with serious allegations against President Trump and an underage victim.
But letβs be clear: this White House cover-up is ongoing. We will get answers.
Autocrats always find way to contribute to entice people to give up their morals.
Thatβs why itβs so important for all of us to be aware of when theyβre trying to do, remain true to our morals, and find ways to respond accordingly.
Per @pabloreports.bsky.social β Nashville Noticias reporter Estefany Rodriguezβs husband says they βdonβt know where she isβ after she was grabbed by ICE.

DHS nominee Markwayne Mullin is one of the most active stock-traders in the Senate β and violated the STOCK Act against insider trading as recently as last August.
He currently holds stock in L3Harris, which has millions in contracts with ICE and FEMA.
The grift continues.
Biden: "We're in a tough spot, folks. We've got an administration that doesn't share any of the values we have. And I don't think I'm exaggerating."
Instead of spending $50 billion to bankroll Trumpβs criminal war on Iran, we could:
-Extend ACA subsidies for one year
-Restore SNAP benefits for 2.4 million people
-And ensure Medicaid coverage for nearly 2 million people
Itβs not about what we can afford. Itβs about priorities.
Sharpton: "The problem is not Trump. The problem is us. What happened to us?"
Iranian authorities should immediately end the ongoing internet shutdown and communications restrictions.
These shutdowns violate human rights and place civilians at further risk of serious harm.
Sharpton: "We're still here! We've come this far by faith. It was against the law to read and write! It was against the law to marry, but we've come this far by faith. I don't care what they do in Washington, I care what we do in the community. We've beat people bigger than Trump!"
New York Attorney General Letitia James is investigating the death of Nurul Amin Shah Alam, a Blind Rohingya refugee who died in the cold streets of Buffalo days after Border Patrol dumped him without coordinating with his family or lawyers.
The daily horrors, the sadism, the depravity, only strengthens my resolve to oppose this sick regime with all my energy.
βLike I said, some people will die. When you go to war, some people will die.β
Thatβs what the President of the United States is saying to the American people.
He wonβt be hurt by a retaliatory attack or high gas prices. But you will β and thatβs a sacrifice heβs willing to make.
It canβt be said enough how right Hillary Clinton and Kamala Harris were. About everything.
Kamala Harris: "I predicted a lot about what's happening right now. I'm not here to say 'I told you so,' but we did see it coming."
since nobody in the Trump administration has real job duties, here's "Secretary of State" Marco Rubio pontificating on college sports today as part of Trump's roundtable event, as though this is his area of expertise
Trump's eyes are closed as Mike Johnson speaks
In the week since launching Operation Epic Fury, Trumpβs war without an apparent endgame has killed 787 Iranians.
When asked whether Americans should be concerned about the possibility of retaliatory attacks here in the US, Trump said:
"I guess."
πSince 2024, Dems have flipped 27 state races to the GOP's ZERO, won two gov races by landslides, myriad state SC races, and hundreds of local races.
The deteriorating Trump's only answer to his massive failures is to drop bombs on Iran, while blowing his grotesque party to smithereens.
Insane.
Obama has the crowd at Jesse Jackson's eulogy hanging on his every word
I am actually glad Obama said this. Pay attention to what he says. Close attention
President Biden speaking at the funeral for Reverend Jesse Jackson.
What a great man. Thank you President Biden.
Reverend Jesse Jackson was a family friend and a hero to the civil rights movement for all people regardless of race, ethnicity, religion.
Makes me miss President Obama even more.
it's always nice to be reminded of how incredible a public speaker Barack Obama is. here's part of his eulogy of Jesse Jackson
Obama on Jesse Jackson: "The message he sent to a 22 year old child of a single mother with a funny name, an outsider, was that maybe there wasn't any place, any room, where we didn't belong"
Obama: Every day you wake up to things you just didnβt think were possible. Each day weβre told by those in high office to fear each other. Everywhere we see greed and bigotry being celebrated, and bullying and mockery masquerading as strength.
At the funeral of Rev. Jesse Jackson. Rep. Jones and I walk in his footsteps. Our story isnβt possible without the work, advocacy, Organizing, and struggle of Rev. Jackson. Rest in power.
All of our living presidents who still have a sense of decency gathered to honor Rev. Jesse Jackson.
Respect recognizes respect.
Obama: "We are living in a time where it can be hard to hope. Each day we wake up to some new assault on our democratic institutions. Another setback to the idea of the rule of law ... but this man - Rev. Jesse Jackson - inspires us to take a harder path ... bc if we don't step up, nobody else will"
Former President Joe Biden praising both Barack Obama and Jesse Jackson gives me life.
I miss Joe.
