Here’s a thought for James Comer. There IS a First Lady who has had a relationship with Jeffrey Epstein. And it’s not Hillary Clinton. It might be worthwhile for Comer to subpoena the First Lady who actually knows Epstein. You know, just to see what she knows.

@jbf1755.bsky.social hi, a Dutch friend posted that we're where we are due to "unnatural" patriotism. Have we always been flag waving, pledge of allegiance, song singing citizens? Are the pledge learning in elementary school indoctrination?

Two days ago it was Elissa Slotkin. Last week it was Jerome Powell. Before that, Mark Kelly. Weaponizing the justice system against your opponents is an authoritarian tactic. The only person not being investigated for the shooting of Renee Good is the federal agent who shot her.

So she had a pulse. That’s what the doctor on the scene wanted to check. She wasn’t breathing, but she had a pulse. He could have started CPR right away. Instead ICE barred the doctor from attending her and waited 15 mins for EMT to get to her.

Never Forget:

The Republicans voted against social security in the 1930’s, against Medicare in the 1960’d and the Affordable Health Care Act in 2010. They have never cared about anyone except wealthy white men.

I was a skeptic about the import of the Epstein files. But 3 invasions of cities, one military buildup outside Venezuela, a government shutdown, and so many other things meant to distract have me convinced whatever’s in there is the biggest presidential scandal in U.S. history.

Trump just ordered the military into Portland, and he’s giving them the green light to use lethal force on American citizens. Authoritarianism is an abstract concept but Trump is making its impacts real and tangible. Let’s be real about it: This is the beginning of dictatorship in America.

He is rigging this next midterm election before one vote is cast. He tried to wreck our democracy after the last vote was cast last time.
