AOC: Whether it’s people in the Epstein files still roaming free, or the president, a known rapist, continuing to occupy the White House, all of this has contributed to the normalization and the idea that incidents of harassment shouldn’t matter.

And I think today was an important turning point

BREAKING: 75% of Americans support releasing the Epstein files, even if it implicates their own party, according to PBS poll.

Yeah. This is a lateral move at best. 🤨 Anyone who agrees to work for Trump is obviously lacking in scruples and so will just be a Bondi copycat.
Raskin: "It doesn't give me a lot of comfort that Todd Blanche is now the acting AG. This is the guy who transferred Ghislaine Maxwell from the higher security prison to the low security prison camp in Texas."

Let’s see if Jeanine Pirro really will “bring all the cases” like she screamed at reporters Friday after being asked why she keeps losing.

Massie goes full beast mode today.

Gets on the house floor, shreds the DOJ and starts naming names from the Epstein files.

The ICE surge in Minnesota cost $280M to detain 4k people. Of those- only 30 were accused of violent crimes.

$9 million per capture of the "worst of the worst".

In competitive authoritarianism (US right now) there's often a "loyal opposition" that's essential to the regime. They are so wedded to "decorum," they go along with rites & rituals that help regime prop up veneer of normalcy, undermining clear view of regimes actions & aims.

I’m so glad they’re doing this.
Maybe dem reps could hold their own state of the union on the Capitol steps. Steal the spotlight. Let members like AOC, Jasmine Crockett, Max Frost, and the DNC make remarks. Norms don't exist. Buck them.

Yet again Rep. Al Green understood the assignment.

He was kicked out by the "no safe space" and anti cancel culture crowd.

Democrats across the country are sending a clear message to Trump’s State of the Union: accountability isn’t negotiable.

Democrats are standing with victims, demanding transparency, and refusing to let corruption be swept under the rug.

Aliya Rahman, woman who was dragged out of car by ICE in Minneapolis: "I've spent the last month learning the names of the tendons in my shoulder, because both of my shoulders are torn -- cartilage and tendons. But what I haven't learned is the names of the people who did this to me."

A reminder that fake voter fraud and false claims of election rigging were always the plan. Here’s a direct message from Assange to Don Jr way back in 2016.
