- Reposted by yarnloverIt’s time for the DOJ to disclose who this is in the Epstein files. No more protecting pedophiles.
- Reposted by yarnlover"The Trump administration’s handling of the Epstein files has been a scandal. But the collusion and complicity of a swath of America’s elite over a quarter century in Epstein’s behavior is an even deeper scandal and outrage." open.substack.com/pub/thebulwa...
- Reposted by yarnloverI wrote about the Epstein files (gift link) www.theverge.com/tech/874721/...
- Reposted by yarnlover"Human beings can compartmentalize their humanity." that is probably the most terrifying fact of our lives. see "The Zone of Interest"--numbingly horrific film of everyday family life adjacent to Auschwitz. "They Have Blueberries"-- home videos & family snapshots of Nazis. Epstein island?
- Reposted by yarnloverRe: the President of the United States posting a(nother) racist meme in the middle of the night, Karoline Leavitt says: “Please stop the fake outrage and report on something today that actually matters to the American public.” You heard her, journalists, keep asking about those Epstein files.

Given the extremes that Trump is now going to in an effort to distract from the Epstein files, I'm lead to believe that the contents of the unreleased balance of the those files is far worse than anyone has imagined. - Reposted by yarnloverFrom Epstein to Bezos, the ruling class is rotten to the core. www.thenation.com/article/soci...
- Reposted by yarnloverNEW: Statement from NAACP president "Donald Trump’s racist video is disgusting and utterly despicable. Trump is obviously desperate to distract us from the Epstein files and his rapidly failing economy. You know who isn’t in the Epstein files? Barack Obama"
- Reposted by yarnloverThe fact that the President of the United States posts a racist video with an image depicting the Obamas as apes and we’re supposed to pretend it’s perfectly normal, everyday stuff shows exactly what is terribly wrong with today’s political mainstream media.
- Reposted by yarnloverWow. The White House is officially *defending* filthy racist imagery of the Obamas as monkeys or apes and dismissing “fake outrage.” The masks are now 100 percent off, friends. At this moment, the Trump administration is not just de facto racist, but officially, openly, declaredly racist.
- Reposted by yarnloverIf we're posting videos today, Trump, here's one about you. Do you find this as funny as your deplorable racist one about the Obamas? I highly fucking doubt it. 🖕😡🖕
- Reposted by yarnloverIm watching CNN right now and the fact they are talking about Bitcoin instead of the fact the president posted a racist video of the Obamas is everything wrong with modern media and how they are more concerned with acess than honor
- Reposted by yarnloverTim Scott is criticizing Donald Trump for posting a video of the Obama’s as apes but didn’t criticize him for raping young girls. Fuck Tim Scott.
- Reposted by yarnloverTrump reposting a video of the Obamas as "apes" during Black History Month and no Republican officials as of yet condemning him is another reason why every one of them needs to be defeated at the ballot box and shunned in public.
- Reposted by yarnloverDonald Trump will never know this L❤️VE.
- Reposted by yarnloverDonald Trump posted a racist video of our former President and First Lady Barack and Michelle Obama. It is sadly par for the course for a President who revels in his cruelty and racism. When will Republicans draw the line and call out this vile conduct?
- Reposted by yarnloverEvery day the racist, fascist, orange pedo pig in the WH manages to hit a new rock bottom. Photoshopped monkey heads on the Obamas is a level of racism and vileness, so deeply rooted in hatred like we’ve never seen before. Nothing intimidates or triggers Trump more than this beloved couple.
- Reposted by yarnloverTrump shared an AI video depicting the Obamas as apes. This tells you all you need to know about his character—and how racist ideology has permeated the modern Republican party. This isn’t a dog whistle. It’s vile, explicit racism shouted through a bullhorn. This man should not be President.
- Reposted by yarnloverDo not let any Republican today get away with the “I haven’t seen the video/image” bullshit. Do not let ANY of them get away with that cowardly bullshit today.
- Reposted by yarnloverBang on the money: “Let it haunt Trump and his racist followers that future Americans will embrace the Obamas as beloved figures while studying him as a stain on our history.” Trump is determined to be remembered as a 'great man'. His curse is that he won't be. www.theguardian.com/us-news/live...
- Reposted by yarnloverRepulsive. This President is a disgrace and every Republican should have to answer for Trump's disgusting behavior.

- Reposted by yarnloverIf every Republican elected official does not condemn the truth social post of Trump they should be seen as likewise racist sacks of shit and will be shunned in history.

- Reposted by yarnloverGreat work by Sen. Lucas who was relentless in making this happen.
- Reposted by yarnloverICE was already PREFUNDED for 4 YEARS in the OBBB passed in July. The money is in a slush fund. So if you give away the rest you give away everything. Do these people think we are stupid? They must. NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO
- Reposted by yarnloverThe appropriators care about appropriations. Things like Trump’s ICE mob running unchecked all over America aren’t nearly as important to the appropriators. The appropriators are the problem, and that’s why leadership should be handling negotiations not the appropriators.
- Reposted by yarnloverWhen you agree to pass 5 of 6 appropriations bills, then you later agree to pass funding for everything that is in the 6th bill except for one agency (ICE) that has already been prefunded in a previous bill, you are giving up every bit of leverage you have and selling out.
