- Reposted by J Easterbrooks 🌻To recap the White House's official position, the racist video was posted erroneously by a staffer and they took it down, but even if it was posted on purpose, the outrage would have been fake because the post was fine and inspired by the Lion King
- Reposted by J Easterbrooks 🌻Three-time Trump voter: I'm looking at this awful picture of the Obamas. What an embarrassment to our country. He is not worthy of the presidency. He takes bribes blatantly, and now he's being a racist blatantly. He's pathetic as a president, and I want to apologize for supporting this rotten man.

- Reposted by J Easterbrooks 🌻Imagine if four years into our war in Iraq we had only occupied 20 percent of it and lost 1.2 million men. Would anyone say the US is winning? No? Then how in the hell can you say Russia is winning?!

- Reposted by J Easterbrooks 🌻Yes. The folks who study election rumors and conspiracy theories are worried that a forced (and false) confession by Maduro (of 2020 election fraud) is a real possibility, and we’ve already seen some (wink, wink) foreshadowing of such a move.

- Reposted by J Easterbrooks 🌻One reason Minneapolis remains in the world's eye is we have one of the most robust & independent media ecosystems remaining in the country. You all need this...and more! @mprnews.org @startribune.com @sahanjournal.bsky.social @minnesotareformer.com @minnpost.bsky.social @racketmn.com etc.
- Reposted by J Easterbrooks 🌻In this year’s appropriations process, Trump and Republicans will be seeking another massive increase in military spending - $450B. DOD budget was $870B in 2024. They want it to be $1.5T next year, nearly double in 2 years, with the national debt already accelerating at $38.5T.

- Reposted by J Easterbrooks 🌻BESSENT SAYS IF TRUMP WINS IRS SUIT, $10B WOULD COME FROM TAXPAYERS
- Reposted by J Easterbrooks 🌻one of my strongest beliefs is that we're in our situation right now bc some of the most prominent talking heads (e.g. joe rogan, andrew schulz) are learning about politics in their 40s and 50s, instead of their teens and early 20s, and we have to go along for the ride as they learn basic things
- Reposted by J Easterbrooks 🌻Trump's name appeared more than 38,000 times in the latest Epstein file release per NY Times. Don't you think that the corporate media should be investigating this much more?!!
- Reposted by J Easterbrooks 🌻I grew up with the Washington Post, wrote editorials for the Washington Post and published a column there for more than 15 years. To watch its owners destroy it, seemingly deliberately, in just a year and a half is devastating.
- Reposted by J Easterbrooks 🌻Why is Trump taking humiliation after humiliation without being angry at Putin? His behaviour, in every other part of his life, is a strong and angry reaction to anything he finds offensive. But not here. Not when he is publicly humiliated to a degree no American president has ever been before.
- Just sent this out, mostly free. The Epstein files show just how close he was to Russian sources. They also make it clear that Epstein represented a historic opportunity to collect Kompromat on the rich and famous. Nothing would terrify a narcissist more. open.substack.com/pub/phillips...
- Reposted by J Easterbrooks 🌻Kostiantynivka, Donetsk region. 20 kilometers from Kramatorsk. Today, it is a site of ruins and burnt-out high-rises. This video shows a city neighborhood that was still intact just a few months ago.
- Reposted by J Easterbrooks 🌻Jeff Bezos’s wealth has increased an average of $70 million every day of 2026, meaning that he could have offset The Post’s losses with what he’s made since Monday.
- Reposted by J Easterbrooks 🌻February brings wild flashbacks. Of once having a normal life, with dreams, a job, plans, with happiness and carelessness… and of those first days when it all crashed, when the endless Groundhog Day of bombings, survival, sorrow, pain, and fear began.
- Reposted by J Easterbrooks 🌻If Jeff Bezos could afford to spend $75 million on the Melania movie & $500 million for a yacht to sail off to his $55 million wedding to give his wife a $5 million ring, please don't tell me he needed to fire one-third of the Washington Post staff. Democracy dies in oligarchy.
- Reposted by J Easterbrooks 🌻*SPOILERS IN VIDEO* This is probably the highlight of my television career to date.
- Bake-off fans! I chatted with @daviddennisjr.bsky.social about what it’s like to compete on the show—the prep, the behind the scenes logistics, Paul and Prue, all of it. 🧑🏻🍳

- Reposted by J Easterbrooks 🌻Peter Thiel has been open about this for a long time. Trump is a way to break the republic, which can then be replaced by “free economic zones” with oligarchs as dictators and tech as a taskmaster for helpless humans without any rights. (1/2)
- Reposted by J Easterbrooks 🌻The indictment of the Proud Boys and Oath Keepers revealed that they had a cache of weapons, entered the Capitol in military formation, and were prepared to harm lawmakers. They were all pardoned and no doubt many of them are now in ICE
- Reposted by J Easterbrooks 🌻Epstein Files: “Some suggested the Clintons ‘caved’ to Congress’ demands. More likely they’ve set a precedent that requires people with far stronger linkage to Epstein—& their wives—to testify. If they don’t, the GOP-led investigation in Congress will face claims that it’s trying to hide the truth”

- Reposted by J Easterbrooks 🌻happening this morning in Minneapolis -- ICE agents drawing guns on observers. I reiterate again that it is only a matter of time before DHS kills more innocent people in Minnesota. Congress needs to shut this shit down right now.
- Reposted by J Easterbrooks 🌻Three rules in FBI firearm training: 1. Always point your weapon downrange 2. Do not point your weapon at anything you do not intend to shoot 3. Don’t put your finger on the trigger unless you intend to shoot Guns are not for threatening compliance for unarmed people doing things you don’t like
- Reposted by J Easterbrooks 🌻Putin just disrespected Trump by unleashing one of the most relentless attacks on Ukraine in this entire war, right after Trump publicly claimed he got Putin to agree not to attack. And she has the guts to call Biden weak? Seriously?
- Reposted by J Easterbrooks 🌻This, along with the seizure of ballots and voting data, is another massive red flag for Americans: This is the kind of thing authoritarians say and do when they are preparing to rig the vote. They are preparing to steal your vote, and you have to take action now to stop them.

- Reposted by J Easterbrooks 🌻NEW/WOW: New York Times identified more than 5,300 files containing more than 38,000 references to Donald Trump in latest Epstein files. Interesting Of DOJ's release ONLY a Few of files date back to when the two men were friends. This is the cover up! Gift link: www.nytimes.com/2026/02/01/u...
- Reposted by J Easterbrooks 🌻It's good to be the President. You can sell out America's national security to enrich your family. The White House under Trump is an ATM and America is for sale to the highest bidder.
- Reposted by J Easterbrooks 🌻I was a White House ethics lawyer. I used to advise people not to even accept a free cup of coffee from someone who had interests before them. And staff followed those rules. I can’t even find the words to describe the scale of Trump’s corruption here.

- Reposted by J Easterbrooks 🌻The worst thing about the ongoing ”peace negotiations” and Trump’s Greenland gambit is that they distract from Russia’s ongoing humanitarian warfare. Happy to report that @lapatina.bsky.social and friends have been busy delivering emergency batteries around Kyiv ! A good way to help ⬇️
- It’s unusually cold in Kyiv and Russia has wrecked Ukraine’s energy supply. The situation is seriously dire. @lapatina.bsky.social and @benjaminwittes.lawfaremedia.org have set up a fundraiser for portable batteries for Kyiv. Please consider this if you can.
- Reposted by J Easterbrooks 🌻The conservatives used to shut down the government over a few hundred million dollars. Seriously. Yet Trump blows billions and sues the govt for billions and gets a “free” jet from Qatar that the govt will spend a billion on then let him take it with him… and not a peep.
