Epstein survivors begged Trump to release their files. He called it a “hoax.” "President Trump: You have so much influence and power in this situation. Please use [it] to help us."

There’s one issue that is gaining rare bipartisan support in DC: Outrage over the continued stonewalling of the full release of the Epstein files.

‘Bordering on incredible’: Coalition under fire for planning to scrap Labor climate policies and offering none of its own With Peter Dutton’s views on climate change in the spotlight, the focus has turned onto whether there will be any policies to reduce emissions in the next decade * Polls tracker; election guide; full federal election coverage * Anywhere but Canberra; interactive electorates guide * Listen to the latest episode of our new narrative podcast series: Gina * Get our afternoon election email, free app or daily news podcast The Coalition is refusing to say if it will introduce any policies to cut Australia’s greenhouse gas emissions in the next decade as it pledges to unwind most climate measures introduced under Labor. Peter Dutton’s position on the climate crisis came under scrutiny last week after he gave contradictory answers on whether he accepted mainstream climate science. Asked during a leaders’ debate on the ABC whether extreme weather events were worsening, the opposition leader said: “I don’t know because I’m not a scientist”. Dropping a Labor goal of 82% of electricity coming from renewable generation by 2030 and slowing the roll out of solar and wind farms, in part by scrapping a “rewiring the nation” fund to build new transmission connections. Instead, it says the country would rely on more fossil fuels – coal and gas-fired power – until it could lift a ban on nuclear energy and build taxpayer-owned nuclear generators, mostly after 2040. Abolishing fines for car companies that do not meet targets to cut the average emissions from the new cars they sell. Not supporting Labor’s 2030 emissions reduction target. Former diplomats say lowering the target would put Australia in breach of commitments made in the 2015 Paris climate agreement. Opposing a joint Australia-Pacific bid to host a major UN climate summit in Adelaide next year. Continue reading...

I finally found my tweet from the last time this ridiculous bullshit popped up.🤣

Thou shalt march on Washington by the millions and not leave until the Mad King is deposed.

September 2024

Glad House Dems are demanding a full briefing—because immigration agents showed up at L.A. elementary schools, and DHS lied about it.

Watch the video. Hear the truth from L.A.’s superintendent. Then ask why the hell Homeland Security is targeting kids.

Don’t let this go!!!

Former chair of the Tennessee Libertarian Party 👇🏽

And many are outright geniuses, and engage in more productive activity in an hour than RFK Jr. will in his entire life.

I won’t share RFK Jr.’s lies about autism.

It’s disgusting and dangerous.

If he had a shred of decency, he would apologize and resign.

Autistic people contribute every day to our nation’s greatness.

To every kid with autism, I’m in this fight all the way for you.

So all 9 members of the Supreme Court, then?

The President of the United States is utterly out of control and possibly out of his mind, and only the Supreme Court of the United States can deliver the absolutely vicious permanent slapdown this moment requires.

If that does not happen, the options for Americans appear to dwindle precipitously.

I am advocating for due process for Abrego Garcia.

I’m sorry she lost her daughter—but Kilmar Garcia had nothing to do with it.

She’s twisting two different stories. Mad her tax dollars sent Sen Van Hollen to El Salvador—but not mad they’re funding Kilmar’s indefinite imprisonment w/out due process?

One more time: easier to be angry than informed.

The Epstein documents are more secure than our nation’s schools

Reporters need to stop showing up at the White House.

The most relevant piece of information here is the R which Senator Murkowski keeps next to her name. She and three other Senators could take full control of the government out of the hands of the organization she herself describes as using terror tactics.

Please repeat over and over:

“Bending to the whims of a bully will not end his cruelty. It will only embolden him. The response to authoritarianism isn’t acquiescence. Bullies respond to one thing, and one thing only: a punch in the face.”

—Gov. JB Pritzker

Judge Luttig is incredible.
