A reminder: The Attorney General of the United States should be the people's lawyer, not the president's personal attorney. The Department of Justice should act to protect the public, not the occupant of the Oval Office and his political allies.
Pam Bondi just laughed when asked if she would apologize to Epstein Survivors.
On the nose as always.

Vice Admiral Nancy Lacore is running for Nancy Mace's seat.
Some good things are going to come out of all this mess. Weeping will endure for the night but Joy will come. However, I will never, never forget.
MAGA. It’s a puzzle isn’t it? As though a bug bores a little burr hole in their brains and the Queen tRump worker ants march in and set up little fascist colonies. In north Louisiana we used to pour gasoline on fire ants.
God bless, ya darlin’. That’s all of us. You are both very good looking.
This is where we are.
GOV. @gavinnewsom.bsky.social : “Facts are stubborn things… Mississippi, Tennessee, Arkansas…. Alabama is a top 3 murder state. Where is the President? — He isn’t focused on crime & violence. It’s about an expression of authoritarianism.”

70 years ago today, Emmett Till was lynched by white supremacists.
Here in Illinois, we promise to never hide from our history — no matter how painful the chapter.
We honor his memory and his brave mother, Mamie Till-Mobley, by continuing the fight for civil rights and justice.
"Every school in the country should have a metal detector."
Sean, what are metal detectors at schools there to detect? A baloney sandwich or a GUN? You would be preventing the entry of people with GUNS because GUNS are the problem, you shamelessly dishonest idiot.
Outstanding response from IL Gov. JB Pritzker.
“This is not about fighting crime. This is about Donald Trump searching for any justification to deploy the military in a blue city, in a blue state, to try & intimidate his political rivals.”

I sure miss the southeast. Yes it was hot but not like it is in San Antonio. And the hydrangeas and azaleas didn’t mind the temps. Lush beauty!

The thing I am eager to resist is this idea that racism is some kind of pond scum on top of the clear water of otherwise good American or Western political ideologies.
I think even the best (white) American political traditions have racism baked in, or dissolved in, like the salt in the stew lol.
If you take multiple trips on a private jet nicknamed the ‘Lolita Express’ there’s a solid chance you’re a depraved, pedo, sex pest who also happens to be POTUS.
The intense need to be righteous drives the subconscious to be let out, often in extremely dysfunctional ways. Mike Johnson, is a great example of this. Referencing restricting his son's access to porn in such a way that it indicated that he, himself, might be viewing porn. Just one example.
Stop asking billionaires questions, recording their answers and sharing their uninformed and/or racist and/or otherwise bigoted and nonsense ideas as journalism. It’s ridiculous. They are the most boring people. Oh wah I am a white man who has more money than I can spend and I’m so mad about it!
Let’s do some good!
I'm speechless, but I want it to be heard!😔
If you were too young in 2003 here is what Bush told the American people:
1) The Iraq War won’t cost a lot of money
3) We won’t need a lot of troops
4) We’ll bring peace and freedom to Iraq
5) We’ll find WMDs
6) We’ll be welcomed as liberators
7) It will be easy
8) It won’t take long
All lies.
There’s something deeply wrong with a society that watches people get snatched by masked men in unmarked cars & looks the other way.
Rep @kamlager-dove.house.gov, describes an alarming system of relocating detainees, making it nearly impossible for their families to find them or get legal counsel.
Thank you!
NO SECRET POLICE ACT 👨✈️ ☠️ 🚔
It’s tough to tell if these are CIVILIAN KIDNAPPERS with murderous intentions…
…or ICE AGENT KIDNAPPERS who might send you to TORTURE PRISONS in a foreign country… ⛓️💥 🚩
BREAKING: Trump’s deportation squad just got shut down at Dodger Stadium. ICE agents were denied entry and escorted out by LAPD. No raids. No fear. Just a giant L for the MAGA kidnapping machine. This is what community resistance looks like.✊

ICE agents attempted to enter Dodger Stadium on Thursday but were denied entry to the grounds by the team, a source familiar with the circumstances told CNN.
While the world has its attention fixed on a regional war, desperate Palestinians are being killed by the dozen as they seek food at controversial American-run aid sites in Gaza, write Bel Trew and Richard Hall www.independent.co.uk/news/world/m...
What does ICE have to hide?
The Department of Homeland Security has issued a new policy that allows ICE officials to block or cancel visits by members of Congress to immigration detention facilities, whenever they “deem it appropriate” or cite vague “operational concerns.”
Conserving our environment is an American value. From hikers to hunters we want to keep our public lands public! Thats why the unprecedented sell-off of millions of acres of public lands needs to be removed from the Senate Budget Bill.
Nature is non partisan! 🇺🇸
Pass it on!
