Doesn’t it seem rather strange that nearly seven years following the supposed suicide of Jeffrey Epstein a suicide note suddenly appears? It was hidden from the public? The story doesn’t make sense on any level. As investigations continue as to whether he really did commit suicide.

Can you believe this shit? CT GOP senators want CT Ed Assoc Pres Kate Dias to resign following a statement referring to ICE agents “operating in and around schools, disrupting learning, shattering a sense of safety, and filling families and staff with anxiety.” What about Trump or Noem, assholes?

#ProudBlue #ResistanceUnited #Pinks Good morning, friends. So many of us are in the path of this monster storm this weekend. Be safe and look out for each other. We can’t count on our government to help anymore, they would rather detain, disappear and kill people.#ICEOUT

In October, ICE grabbed Maher Tarabishi. He was a 24/7 caregiver for his disabled son Wael. At the time of Maher’s detention, disability advocates warned that taking away Wael’s caregiver put his life at risk. Wael died on Friday at age 30. ICE caused his death. They didn’t get to say goodbye.

This seems to be the most popular version of what's going to happen regarding the release of the files after the House votes. MAGA Republicans will do whatever it takes to protect their twisted orange overlord. Americans deserve to know who’s in the TRUMP-EPSTEIN files, but will we find out?

Noem spent over $200 million in taxpayer dollars to film videos over 2xs last year’s budget. The money was funneled using a “no bid” contract to an unknown LLC created days earlier and is tied to the husband of her deputy at DHS. #ProudBlue#Voices4Victory #OneV1 apple.news/AZPU7INIQR3C...

We always get these huge Trump announcements with much media hype and fanfare with lots of big promises and assurances, effusively praising himself looking for awards & prizes, while experts say the details are scarce or nonexistent. Then a short time later we get the reality.
