🧵3/3 DOJ claims it “has not refused” help, yet Norway, Poland and Latvia get zero replies. Survivors waited decades; partners wait forever as the files’ global links yield no U.S. accountability. Systems that act elsewhere freeze here. Justice burned to protect power. #TrumpEpsteinCoverup

🧵2/3 Britain’s formal ask for unredacted Epstein files on Mandelson met DOJ/FBI stonewall after talks failed. Germany’s police stay polite as Greens demand probes of possible ties. Europe pursues what the documents exposed; Washington stalls amid chaos. Exceptionalism now equals #EliteImmunity.

🧵1/3 DOJ’s year of silence on European Epstein requests—Poland hunts Russian intel links, Norway charges ex-diplomats and a PM, Latvia names a victim—stinks of obstruction. Zero U.S. charges while allies chase the files’ leads & survivors wait. This shields the powerful, not justice. #EpsteinCoverUp

🧵3/3 Meme factories cannot hide the gulf between mythical invincibility and poll numbers screaming midterm trouble. Swing voters want lower prices, not digital enemy fleets or hockey dominance over Canada. This insults the electorate and guarantees a ballot-box reckoning. #MemePresidency

🧵2/3 Voters notice the bruised hands, dozing clips, and 80-year-old president with just 15% strong approval. Response? More AI superhero memes and “Build the Wall” Tetris. Governance as fever dream while inflation & an unpopular Iran war grind on. Pure contempt for working people. #TrumpFeverDreams

🧵1/3 White House floods feeds with AI Trump as Green Lantern building walls and factories while Americans face $4+ gas and stalled jobs. This is no strategy—it’s escape from real failures voters feel daily. Affordability decides midterms, not cartoon power. GOP owns this crash. #TrumpHasLostIt

🧵2/2 The uglier number is $5.85: record U.S. diesel. Trucks move food, medicine & nearly everything else Americans buy, so the damage travels straight into grocery aisles & delivery bills. Refineries are already running at 98% capacity. There is precious little cushion left. #FuelShock #HormuzCrisis

DemSocialistGuy @demsocialistguy.bsky.social · 07/09/2026
🧵1/2 Labor Day 2026 delivered a record Americans never asked for: $4.14-a-gallon gasoline. Prices surged after the U.S.-Israeli attacks on Iran and the collapse of crude traffic through Hormuz. Foreign-policy shocks do not stay overseas. They arrive at the pump—and in the family budget. #GasPrices

I’ve been a long time proponent of stripping job applications of both name and gender preference-related material, and replacing them with an applicant control number. Without federal law to mandate this, it would be up to individual companies to self-enforce.

Authoritarianism does not need to murder truth in the street. It can lock truth in a filing cabinet, release only the parts that flatter power, and call the rest “classified” until the cover-up starts bleeding through the walls.

🧵2/3 and emerged with a temporary memorandum that appears to offer Iran oil-sanctions relief, access to frozen funds, and a possible reconstruction package—while the hardest nuclear terms are still deferred for another 60 days.
