Most people are good.When they show you otherwise, move on. I believe in democracy. I believe in education and research and truth and serving others. It’s WHY we are here. Money ONLY matters for good it can do for the good for all.

A new rape allegation against Donald Trump. A House Judiciary Democrats’ report alleging he participated in Epstein’s abuse. And a call for a special counsel to investigate. How many more women have to come forward before accountability catches up with power?

Jack Antonoff criticizes Ed Sheeran’s response to Macklemore’s Free Palestine: “[Ed Sheeran] missed a massive, beautiful opportunity there: just cancel the whole f*cking tour, then play for free outside each venue, raise a bunch of money, rather than let a f*cking billionaire tell you what to do.”

“The powerful can kill one, two, or 100 roses. But they’ll never stop the arrival of spring.” — Lula What an extraordinary victory for Brazil! The Brazilians beat back fascism at the ballot box. We can damn well do it here, too. VOTE!

RELEASE AND INVESTIGATE. NO ONE SHOULD BE GIVEN MERCY.

Seeing how little coverage that house report that added another rape accusation to Trump's tally got today, I looked back on just the front page Benghazi stories (there were many, many more inside over these months).

Fantastic. Now let’s VOTE…every single one of us who can…and get our democracy back, repair our wounded reputation, bring SCIENCE back and research and rebuild with our Ally’s, invest in our people, rebuild our public service systems. government! 🤷‍♀️

Per a new report from House Democrats, Trump's DOJ is withholding evidence of his ties to Epstein and slow-walking the complete release of the Epstein files. It's time to end the cover-up and expose the truth. Remember this when you cast your ballot. www.ms.now/news/house-j...

So in the past few days Trump has taken sanctions off Russia’s energy, asked to buy diesel from Russia, restricted SpaceX Starlink, stopped sharing intel on incoming missiles, & asked Europe to unfreeze Russian assets to give to Russia. Hope Americans aren’t confused on who he works for

One month left to take back #AZ06 and change the future of Southern Arizona. I can't do this alone, and your participation could make all the difference. Let's fight for it together.

Corporations aren’t giving a politician money just for fun! They have a reason and that’s partly why we have so much corruption in politics. We haven’t taken a dime of corporate $$ and we never will #ohio #campaignfinance #corporate #cincinnati

I got really annoyed that so many stories about the "Cornell 7" case don't link to the underlying court documents. So I compiled the key filings from Jane Doe's civil suit and from a separate suit brought by one of the accused. Read them here: annabower.substack.com/p/read-the-c...

If you’ve been paying attention, it appears that Trump has had at least one stroke. Possibly a few. And the bulges and strange posture we have been seeing are because he’s wearing an exoskeleton.

Israeli billionaires are raping the United States economy and using whatever money they make to fund either the Israeli military or United States politicians who will turn around and just give them more.
