The United States government just agreed to pay $1.8 billion to the United States president, approved by the president's own personal lawyer who represented him when he was convicted of 34 criminal counts. This is the biggest scandal in all of American political history.

What a catastrophic humiliation for the US. Tehran is declaring total victory: the US will withdraw its troops from the region, ease Iran sanctions, allow continued uranium enrichment, and accept Iranian control of the Strait. Thanks for nothing, Trump. America First? More like Iran First. 🇮🇷

NEW: Last October, Border Patrol agents gassed Chicagoans after agents caused a major car crash on the southeast side. I analyzed body cam videos that show agents Benito Nunez, Oscar Guillen, and Carlos Chavira ignored orders to end the pursuit—moments before they blew a tire and crashed.

Do you know what I find ironic? The fact that MAGA will complain about California being in some debt and say that Gavin caused it but they are fine with the idea that the felon is putting us so far in debt that we will never see the light of day. #USDemocracy

In my mind, I wanted these files released because 1. don’t care about the partisan affiliation of these monsters 2. Wanted justice for the girls 3. Hoped that this would stop the government from enabling crimes by the very rich. 4. Perhaps create another cultural swing away from misogyny.

So the Epstein files dump 1. Protected a lot of predictors 2. Created another partisan food fight. 3. Failed to create any obvious pathway for these women to get accountability. 4. Included a number of clearly unverified claims that can be used to undermine the very legit emails

When life gives us Lemons, we must all come to Lemon’s aid. Love him or hate him, Don Lemon is not afraid to speak truth to power, and this will only give him an opportunity to report firsthand this Administration’s efforts to silence him. May this blow up bigly in the “Justice” Department’s faces.
