"It is up to us to get him back. It is up to us to free him because the US is a government still, for this moment, of by and for the people!" Watch @timmiller.bsky.social's speech from the Supreme Court demanding that Andry is freed now. Donate to help at freeandry.org

Surely all the outlets breathlessly posting about Kilmar being charged as a migrant smuggler and brought here to Tennessee will also post about this part…

😕🤷🏻‍♂️

Release the epstein files!

Joe Biden was old and not fully competent and his staff covered it up. Big scandal. Donald Trump was accused by his top donor and former top ‘Special Government Employee’ of being a pedophile. So are his staff covering that up? Isn’t that, y’know, a bigger scandal?

Goldman: So I wonder: what’s in the Epstein files that would make Donald Trump so intent on keeping them covered up? What’s different from what’s already public

DOJ as we have known it, as a place where prosecutors from the AG on down do the right thing, for the right reason, in the right way, is over.

I learned so much from Renee Ferguson. She made countless lives better through her brilliant investigative journalism—as well as her mentorship of young people looking to make a difference.

Trump called musk a big time drug addict, and told JD Vance to be cautious about how he spoke publicly. Ted Cruz is scared. The loss in Wisconsin was the tipping point. Musk begged Trump to reverse tariffs. Musk and Bessent got into a physical fight over DOGE failures. Gift link: wapo.st/3TeoIxy

New in PN: Adam Serwer on America's "new dark age" "They see this as a long-term investment in a more ignorant population reliant on sources of information they can control — a docile population that can be easily manipulated." — @adamserwer.bsky.social

Wellman: When I served in Iraq.. I heard about how Saddam Hussein divided them. Different sects fought each other. But you know -- Saddam and his family sat laughing at all of them. They divided them against each other and kept their power for 35 years. Does this sound familiar to anybody?

Share this far and wide. It will only get worse.

Ordinary people on both sides of the aisle want the Epstein Files released in their entirety. Elites on both sides of the aisle are praying they never get released.

I think we’re making some progress now on this therapy session. Yes, this is real.

Now, more than ever

Jack White for the win 🔥

OMFG!! This is real:

Are we great yet?

RELEASE THE EPSTEIN FILES!!!

Ah, the golden age.

Moskowitz: "Nothing has been made more efficient. Here are the wins for congressional Rs. You ready? They're gonna do a $9b recession bill. They're gonna get rid of Elmo, which the American people were clamoring for, but they're gonna add $2.4t for the debt. And then they want us to cheer for them."

It’s called taxing the rich, buddy.

Beyond frustrating and disappointing that CBS got a rare exclusive sitdown interview with Musk and didn’t ask him a single question about his reckless and ignorant cuts to USAID and all the lives that are being lost across the world as a result of it:

COLORADO… My Pillow Guy Mike Lindell admitting in court he has no evidence the 2020 election was rigged…

"Just one more thing, sir. Since the election, you've announced 12 projects in foreign countries: the UAE, Saudi Arabia, Vietnam, India, Qatar, & Oman. You got a $400 million jet, sold meme coins, $600 sneakers, Chinese bibles, & hats. How is any of this making America great?"

great, provocative column from larry tye on what it took to defeat the american nightmare of joe mccarthy and the ism that bears his name. along these lines, may i also point you to the 2nd season of my podcast, “ultra”: podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/r... www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/202...

Harvey Milk served his country honorably — first in uniform, then in public office. Taking his name off this Navy ship sends a clear message, and it’s one of disrespect and cruelty.

Civilians.

Must-read! 👇🏽

I have to say this. DNC strategists saying, 'we need to find the right message.' is missing the whole fucking point. What we need, all Americans, is someone with a vision and the courage to speak it. Authenticity, bravery, and compassion.
