Treasury Department files reviewed by Senator Ron Wyden’s staff members show 4,725 wire transfers, adding up to nearly $1.1 billion, associated with just one of Mr. Epstein’s bank accounts. Follow. The. Money.

Tell it like it is, Senator Slotkin. Republicans will try to sell you a bill of goods when it comes time to vote — but don’t forget that they chose to sell you out, and hoped you wouldn’t notice. op: @slotkin.senate.gov

If the evidence proved that both Bill Clinton and Donald Trump abused underage girls on Epstein Island... The Dems would reject Clinton. MAGA would reject the evidence. Pls read & subscribe: johnfugelsang.substack.com/p/from-drain...

I am so disgusted by us as a nation.
Concentration camps with no privacy, guarded by the military, in terrible climate, on indigenous lands. This happened to Japanese Americans. And of course indigenous peoples were “removed” to reservations, that is to say, camps. This is who we always have been as a country.

The Senate bill would make the bottom 40% of America, on avg, poorer It would take from the poor while giving to the rich This isn’t shared sacrifice where everyone tightens their belts. The poor have to tighten their belts while the rich loosen theirs Stunning graph from @budgetlab.bsky.social

I was as proud of our country that day as I am embarrassed by it today.
Today marks the 10-year anniversary of Obergefell v. Hodges — the historic Supreme Court ruling legalizing gay marriage. This was a huge step forward for LGBTQIA+ communities. And as Republicans try to strip these hard-fought rights, we won’t back down.

The Eighth Amendment would like a word.
NEW: The Trump admin finalized an emergency regulation, which goes into effect tomorrow, authorizing DHS to impose civil monetary penalties for immigration law violations with far less due process. The rule could lead to DHS imposing exorbitant fines on millions of people — fines they can't afford.

Open fascism from a member of Congress. Genuinely scary.
They had houses built for returning soldiers...I lived in one.
MAGA gets all misty-eyed with nostalgia for the 1950s. And it’s not just the White Supremacy. They think of it as a time of great prosperity. But they don't realize that government programs like the GI Bill were driving much of that prosperity. You know, socialism.
