I analyze the close relationship between Jeffrey Epstein & disgraced former Amb. to the US, Peter Mandelson, who was fired & forced to resign from the Labour Party, & how the UK seeks transparency through criminal investigations…all things the Trump Regime refuses to do.

no better evidence that Stephen Miller is acting president, even mostly cooked Trump's way fucking savvier about stuff like this
Ramos' parents, originally from Ecuador, were set for their asylum hearing in late Feb. DHS abruptly moved it up to THIS MORNING.
They are not in the U.S. illegally and have no criminal record. DHS is simply trying to end their asylum claims.
Epstein survivor Anouska De Georgiou: With the way that these files have been handled…I feel like I have to get through hours at a time, because it’s just too much. This is years. Every week there’s some big thing that interrupts the flow of my life, in a way where I feel completely paralyzed.

"it is clear that AIPAC is again funding super PACs in order to secretly funnel money to its preferred candidates, while also coordinating donors to give to those candidates directly."

AIPAC Coordinates Donors in Illinois House Primaries - The American Prospect
Three Democratic candidates are benefiting from dark-money super PACs, and they share hundreds of donors who have previously given to AIPAC.
And they’ve already laying the rhetorical groundwork for the locations they’d like to seize with very little pushback aside from the election officials in those particular areas.
ICE at every polling place?
Not nearly enough goons.
Refuse to seat winners?
No mechanism and would crash markets.
Lie about the vote, falsely claim fraud?
Very safe bet.
Seize ballot boxes in certain locations?
Worryingly plausible, as

Baaaaahahahah. My instincts are honed baby.

Was this very mid-2000s emo person press-ganged into ICE servitude?
I think "woke" was at least partly identified with "irritating" and the way we're rectifying that in Woke 2 is by being scary instead
🚨HOLY CRAP. The Trump admin just took a SLEDGEHAMMER to due process, largely eliminating the Board of Immigration Appeals process and MANDATING DISMISSAL of ALL appeals (which cost $1,000 thanks to OBBBA) filed after tomorrow unless a majority of the BIA votes to hear the case.
I was just denied entry to the Dilley detention facility while my constituent, seven-year-old Diana, remains inside.
What kind of sick, horrific conditions are children being forced to endure in there?
I will be back tomorrow. Accountability can’t wait.

The G.O.P. Senator Who Can’t Stop Thinking About the Boy ICE Detained
You don't see prosecutions for those named in the Epstein files because those who would be doing the prosecutions are either named in the files or have bosses who are, or their bosses are named in the files and so on and on, up the chain. The system cannot be rehabilitated and must be torn down.
Because our cops and Supreme Court are corrupt, our Congress are cowards, our system is bought and paid for by bajillionaires, and our founders were stupid enough to put both law enforcement and our military under the president's command.

Watch: Why is no one being prosecuted over the Epstein files?
Gary O'Donoghue looks at why no prosecutions have yet come from the release of millions of documents.
The Trump admin is ALSO changing the rules so that rather than 30 days to file a Notice of Appeal, people will now only have 10 days (in most cases).
That's just 10 days to find $1,000 and appellate counsel for an appeal the government says it will likely automatically deny!
Lmao, imagine getting your ass kicked by a group of teenagers — in a fight you started — and then going to jail for it 🤣🤣🤣

Not gullibility, not exactly. Nor personal agreement.
A deep psychological need and professional incentive for normality, with both sides equal, where we share basic values but disagree about how.
Because if it really is this bad, good people would be biased against it, not neutral and “balanced.”
After Trump tells NBC News he could maybe use a "softer touch" on immigration, we immediately get the "different tone" narrative from CNN.
Brianna Keilar: "A change of tone for the president. Softer touch."
David Chalian: "He acknowledged learning something that this requires a softer touch."
ICE officers and senior Trump administration officials have repeatedly suggested that DHS is building a "domestic terrorists" database with information on US citizens protesting ICE’s actions in recent weeks.

Well for every ICE agent, I suspect there’ll be at least 5-10 Democrat observers at each polling booth
Hey Democrats!!
Start working on this now!! Get going. Organise an ARMY of defenders!!!
Aim to flood all voting areas with multiple scrutineers
Surround ICE with numbers!!!
for Trump to have an equivalent number of 'brownshirts' as Hitler he would need to recruit over 19 million 800 thousand more DHS officdts
Wait so 4 million out of ~65? Deducting women, children, and the elderly, you get 20m men age 18-65. So 1/5 of them were Brownshirts.
In America today, pop 340m, that's proportionately.... 20m.
James Comer is bringing Hillary Clinton before his committee to testify about Epstein despite having zero contact with him, but not Epstein’s neighbor Howard Lutnick who lied about his connections to Epstein over many years which is proven in the files.
Remember the incident where DHS claimed officers shot a guy because he attacked them with a snow shovel?
Yeah. It didn't happen. They shot him through the door of his own home. And then arrested him. And then lied about it. Again.
And they almost shot some kids in the process.
They just blindly shot through the fucking door.
"Additional photographs show damage consistent with a bullet fragment lodged in a bedroom wall down the hallway — suggesting it traveled between a mattress and a portable crib in a room where several small children sleep."

Karoline Leavitt just admitted coordination between Trump, Tulsi Gabbard, and the FBI seizing Fulton County ballots... right after Trump said he wants to "nationalize the voting."
If true, this is a massive scandal.

Trump: If states can't run elections 'honestly,' then 'somebody else should take over'
Trump had been asked what he meant when he called on members of the Republican Party to "take over the voting" in a recent interview with Dan Bongino.
Remember her name: Aliya Rahman
Her testimony is everything and it deserves to be heard, by everyone. Decide for yourself.
It’s powerful. It’s gut-wrenching. And no one should have to survive what she did.
ICE MUST GO‼️
calling these guys a "death squad" is a bit overheated - they are certainly more dangerous but it's been that way for a while. they are shock troops, it's not surprising *they* have drawn first blood.
Two agents involved in the shooting deaths of US citizens in Minneapolis are reportedly part of paramilitary tactical units—including ICE’s two Special Response Teams (SRT), CBP’s one SRT, and the Border Patrol Tactical Unit (BORTAC)—whose extreme tactics are generally reserved for war zones.
