- Reposted by EC 1,231,440This 1994 interview has always been creepy, with Trump speculating about the size of his newborn daughter's breasts. But now that we know that the man interviewing Donald, Robin "Strangler" Leach, was also up to no good with Jeffrey Epstein, it is even more so. youtu.be/zqE4hKIP4n0?...
- Reposted by EC 1,231,440I guess "ocean" isn't one of the words they test when the president makes his monthly visit to the dementia ward.
- If there are two things he's famous for, it's staying silent and never complaining. 🙄
- The other fun thing to do come the midterms (yeah, I know, just go with it) is count all of the candidates he endorses that he'll claim he doesn't know after they lose.

- Reposted by EC 1,231,440Early in his career, William Randolph Hearst famously joked that if his papers kept losing $1 million a year, he'd lose all his money in 60 years. If the Post continues to lose $100 million a year, it will take Jeff Bezos 2000 years to lose his money.
- Reposted by EC 1,231,440Trump is sinking as his old attorney recorded everything to protect himself. I recommend this video. "Lie by omission." "Consciousness of obstruction." #ArrestTrump
- Reposted by EC 1,231,440even the best-case scenario here is pretty bad
- This is how Sen. Ron Wyden clues the public into activity that he finds extremely alarming. He does a press release about a letter he sent to the director of the CIA that basically says, 'I want to make sure you saw the classified letter I sent early today.' www.wyden.senate.gov/imo/media/do...
- Reposted by EC 1,231,440Oralè Resister “It’s not a crime to party with Jeffrey Epstein” Attorney General Blanche Trump’s former personal attorney. It’s like saying it’s ok to invite Jeffrey Dahmer over for Thanksgiving dinner with the family. Burp! lol 😝 #PartyWithEpstein #USDemocracy #NoKings

- Reposted by EC 1,231,440But, somehow, Jeff Bezos had $75 million to squander/bribe for his useless, money-losing Melania vanity movie. Who needs accurate, smart reporting when you can have shameless, stupid propaganda?
- Reposted by EC 1,231,440This is the type of letter you write and make public when you’ve discovered that the CIA is up to no good and can’t be trusted—and you have no confidence the people in charge care.
- Reposted by EC 1,231,440Please listen to every Californian telling you Gavin Newsom is a terrible choice and you should not anoint him the Democratic nominee for 2028. The only thing Gavin Newsom actually cares about is Gavin Newsom. He will sacrifice anyone and anything you care about for his political ambitions.
- Reposted by EC 1,231,440Big Oil "purchased solar and EV patents to ensure others couldn’t use them, solicited control of renewable markets and then abandoned them, and funded powerful institutions to promote false solutions, all while using trade groups to downplay the harms of fossil fuels, according to the complaint." 😠

- It's a minor point, but it's also sickening that people are forced to call John Ratcliffe "honorable".
- Reposted by EC 1,231,440Sitting U.S. senators don't make letters such as this one public unless they feel a paper trail is needed to inform the public. Not great. Really not great. h/t Sahil Kapur
- I know Trump isn't interested in logic. In fact, I'm certain he wouldn't understand logic even if he wanted to learn it, but there is NO FUCKING PROOF VOTER ID DOES *ANYTHING* EXCEPT *SUPPRESS VOTER TURNOUT.* It's a classic GOP scam. It always has been and always will be.

- Reposted by EC 1,231,440Two days ago, we discovered Trump has engaged in the most corrupt behavior of any president in history—giving secret technology to China's ally in exchange for the Trump family getting half a billion dollars.

- And, like every other Republican effort, it ended up a MASSIVE FAIL.
- Reposted by EC 1,231,440Easy peasy solution here, which is just to not work for the federal government. Seriously, ICE is kidnapping literal children and murdering people in the streets. No excuse for deciding to go work for DOJ or DHS these days.

- Reposted by EC 1,231,440lower court judges stopped reflexively granting the admin the presumption of regularity months ago based both on gov actions and DOJ lawyer actions. dropping a "jump team" of random lawyers with no connection to the jurisdiction and no knowledge of cases is not going to restore that in the least.
