- Reposted by Stubborn IdealistAOC: We are going to have to reckon, as a country, with this time. And I hope that that reckoning includes prosecution of people who are involved with the lawbreaking and human rights violations they are knowingly engaging in right now.
- Reposted by Stubborn IdealistRs are “worried about private polling that paints a dire picture of the midterms—& it's not just the House they're afraid of losing, it's also the Senate.” (Rs are thus DESPERATE to (a) pass their voter suppression bill & (b) create a pretext to “federalize” the election by ginning up BS re 2020) 1/

- Reposted by Stubborn IdealistMake Peter Thiel into the villain, Democrats. It's all there. He is the node that connects Trump, Vance, Palantir, Musk, Epstein, and so many other terrible players. Just expose it and make him and Musk the face of these psychopathic billionaires ruining our lives.

- Reposted by Stubborn IdealistAt this difficult moment in American history, we must be honest with ourselves: Our nation, once the envy of the world, is now in profound decline. For the sake of our children and future generations, we must reverse course.

- Reposted by Stubborn IdealistWe have tons of information about Miller's white supremacist mindset from leaked emails in 2019. That has totally disappeared from our discussion of his goal of ethnic cleansing. That's why I wanted to speak to Michael Edison Hayden who reported out those emails.
- Reposted by Stubborn IdealistThat would be such a shame.
- Reposted by Stubborn IdealistBoy it would be awful if foreign governments did their own investigation; and didn't protect wealthy child rapists, while not protecting the privacy of victims, like some other governments I could mention.

- Reposted by Stubborn IdealistWomen who took their spouses’ last names (& others with name changes) could get around the birth certificate problem if they have passports. But not everyone has one. And getting one takes time & $$$. The GOP’s bill doesn’t even offer to cover the expense, making it equivalent to a poll tax.

- NEWS Elon Musk and others LOSE their bid to duck depositions in DOGE litigation. Judge doubts protections for "high-ranking government officials" for multiple reasons. It's unclear they ever had that status, and Musk "left government service." Doc buff.ly/uhpSOTz

- Reposted by Stubborn IdealistCasten to Bessent on VZ oil money: "IEEPA specifically says you have to be engaged in hostilities with a country for IEEPA to trigger. Rubio said we are not at war with Venezuela. So unless you disagree w/ him, I'm unclear other what legal authorities the US has to control or disperse those assets"
- Reposted by Stubborn IdealistAgain, I know everyone wants to yell at The Democrats & Chuck Schumer & Hakeem Jefferies, but there are 10-25 people in Washington who could literally end all of this tomorrow, & none of them are Democrats, & they continue to get 24/7 free passes for being absolute oath-violating cowards. Focus.
- Reposted by Stubborn IdealistThe SAVE Act failed to pass last year because of nationwide public opposition. Now it’s back, and Congress should reject it again. Here’s why. bit.ly/4rA2p4R
- Reposted by Stubborn Idealist"ICE guys are pretty miserable. I don’t think morale is particularly high for them. They’re freezing, they’re getting shouted at. They can’t go anywhere without being tailed by 5 cars. They get out and immediately there's a crowd of 100 people shouting at them, blowing whistles as loud as they can."
- Reposted by Stubborn IdealistLook around at everyone you’ve ever heard of, everyone with media profiles, great career success, institutional credit, any idea that went unquestioned and unchallenged. You were fed those ideas and people by networks like Epstein's. You have to undo everything. #OpDeathEaters

- Reposted by Stubborn IdealistChris Murphy names the harm plainly: ICE is inflicting trauma and violence—Minneapolis to Texas, block by block. Families terrorized. Communities destabilized. This happens by design and by funding. Congress can stop feeding it today. #FundHealthcareOverICE #USDemocracy #Pinks
- Reposted by Stubborn IdealistWhile vetting the Epstein files, the FBI created a list of prominent names mentioned in the documents—and they noted which people had "salacious information" about them in the records. Trump was on the "salacious" list. Bill Clinton was not. www.justice.gov/epstein/file...

- Reposted by Stubborn IdealistI'm worried that the broader public isn't really understanding the Epstein Files. The problem isn't that everyone in the files is a secret pedophile, it's that all the people are corresponding with him because they *don't care that he's a pedophile*. It's a story of elite impunity.
- Reposted by Stubborn Idealist18/ Meanwhile, Rs are trying to push through the so-called “SAVE Act” which will create a bureaucratic nightmare for new voters (eg college students), women who change their last names, & voters trying to re-register after being purged in the GOP’s flawed voter purges. bsky.app/profile/sund...

- Reposted by Stubborn IdealistAnyone with a heart and soul should agree that children and babies do not belong behind bars. Thousands of kids will carry a lifetime of trauma and PTSD, done in our name, funded by our tax dollars.
