ICE was in my neighborhood today. If you live in JC and NJ. Save these numbers to report any activity.
HUGE NEWS from the new Epstein files:
Records show that Maria Farmer, who worked for Epstein, filed a "child pornography" report to the FBI in 1996.
The FBI has never before acknowledged that complaint. The case went nowhere, and mass abuse followed.

FYI
More than 1800 detainees are missing after the closure of Alligator Alcatraz. Their families and lawyers can’t find them and they’ve vanished from the ICE database. Feels like this should be a much bigger story www.miamiherald.com/news/local/i...
Funny how the MAGAts at CNN never featured any speakers at a service for the Hortmans
If only we gave wall to wall coverage of the eulogies of all the children in the US shot in their classrooms.
Washington Post fires their last remaining Black opinion writer @karenattiah.bsky.social over the most benign comments in the aftermath of Charlie Kirk's murder...
Meanwhile Fox still has Brian Kilmeade who casually said all homeless people should be killed.
Its all unfair & unbalanced. Wake up.
Dr. Demetre Daskalakis, who resigned from the CDC, revealed that RFK Jr. has NEVER been briefed by CDC experts on measles, flu, or Covid:
“No one from my center has ever briefed him on any of those topics…He’s getting his information from somewhere”
i find this image so fascinating. it is both a literal example of authoritarianism but also a second-hand reproduction of the aesthetics of other authoritarian states. it's like a simulacra of authoritarianism whose purpose is to attempt to make the simulacra real.
Eric Adams and his associates have repeatedly been caught in outrageous, petty, and asinine acts of snack-adjacent graft. Eric Lach writes about the latest scandal, over a bag of sour-cream-and-onion chips.
With very cool glasses too!
ICE is apparently full of lying, bigoted sacks of shit with no sense of ethics in carrying out their jobs. Abolish ICE.
Wow, 100,000 people!!
Just got to the Mall and saw this sign, which no one is going to top.

At this point if the White Lotus finale doesn’t involve a gang of glock-toting monkeys wearing Duke apparel, I’ll be disappointed. #whitelotus
I love this
"The new reporting shows that, after the state banned abortion, dozens more pregnant and postpartum women died in Texas hospitals..." www.propublica.org/article/texa...

We need this ferocity from our leaders and we, the people.
We are fighting back!💪

The Washington Post refused to run this ad. Sure would be a shame if it went viral.
I guess a quarter trillion isn't enough for that level of emotional poverty, so he's grifting from you, me, and the children abandoned by USAID.

Pam Bondi is disbanding the Foreign Influence Task Force - the FBI team that is charged with combatting foreign meddling in US elections.
Worth asking how this makes us more safe in any way, shape, or form.
Picture of protest crowd, trans pride flags
There’s a strong crowd here, I’d say 1-2,000 people. Cynthia Nixon, whose son is trans, just spoke.
Event is protesting NYU Langone cancelling appointments for trans patients, following Trump White House order.

FDIC has yanked job offers to more than 200 new examiners, the front-line employees who closely monitor banks to ensure they operate safely and adhere to an extensive rule book.

i think it is important to say that the open and explicit racism of the president and the vice president isn’t just uncouth or “controversial” but a direct attack on tens of millions of americans and a dereliction of their duty to represent the entire country
A Project 2025 training video obtained by @propublica.org + @documented.bsky.social explains how conservative media outlets may "need a little more help... Sometimes it takes some extra background calls. Sometimes this takes giving them some scoops so that they can get ahead of the coverage."
It hurts to hear this.
May her memory be a blessing and strength for the fight.
