Nipple-Gate: How it was more important to protect Trump at all costs than it was for the DOJ and FBI to investigate Epstein's crimes against women and children.

I’ve been thinking a lot about the extraordinary outbursts of the President of the United States against female journalists... well, actually against journalists in general and journalism. But it feels like he saves his most childlike behavior and irrational language for female reporters, calling them all kinds of names that kids in kindergarten are given times out for. It’s stunning to me to witness such behavior from any leader, any CEO, any person of influence or importance. I’ve never witnessed someone like this raging, this weekend with @meetthepress host @kwelkernbc, just last week in the Oval Office with @cnn’s @kaitlancollins, calling women stupid or piggy, telling them to “smile”, calling them darling, demeaning their credibility. Every good man should denounce this behavior. Every person should be able to stand up for their colleagues and say “No more.”
Imagine this man screaming like this at your daughter, your wife, your sister, your mother... would you stand for it? No, you wouldn’t! And neither should any of us. It’s unacceptable and undignified. Period. End of story.

For Trump and his friends:
- A $1.8 billion slush fund, paid for by you.
- A $1 billion ballroom, paid for by you.
For you and other American taxpayers:
- Millions kicked off health care.
- Highest gas prices in 5 years.
- Soaring costs for groceries.

Communities have been terrorized.
The men who killed Alex Pretti and Renee Good have seen no accountability.
Yet Republicans in Congress want even more billions for ICE at the cost of SNAP and Medicaid.
Tell them no. act.indivisible.org/sign/tel…

INCREDIBLE!
Washington Post journalist Hannah Natanson who had Trump’s FBI raid her home and take her phones and laptops, just won the Pulitzer Prize with the Washington Post.
Congrats!!

Over the years, @PeteButtigieg has had many viral media moments, but I think this might be his best.
It's the most authentically angry and impassioned that I have seen him, and that's what voters who are banging their heads against a wall about the state of affairs want to see.

I'm so sick of moron Republicans screaming about "Inflation was 9% under Biden," as if Biden was solely responsible for it. The ENTIRE WORLD suffered inflation during COVID, and ours was the lowest in the industrialized west. Ours dropped faster than the rest of the west. Our economy recovered faster than the rest of the west. If Republicans had a single honest bone in their bodies, they would praise Biden's performance in getting inflation back under control without a recession. But they don't. They lie about literally everything.

Buttigieg: If you want a house, your mortgage went up because interest rates went up, because of this war. Your tank of gas got more expensive. The price of food this summer will be more expensive because fertilizer is more expensive because of this war. They are asking for an extra half trillion dollars for the defense budget. That is thousands of dollars from every household in this country. So we are paying directly for this. And what do we get in return? Is the world any safer? No

I wanna point out something serious. The admin has been complaining about Iran winning the information war.
This same administration shut down Voice of America, and other information operations the US govt does.
It’s a self goal. Actions have consequences

This is chilling. Withholding vital public health data because it doesn't conform to the anti-vaccine dogma of RFK Jr. will cost lives.
Exclusive: The acting director of the CDC has delayed publication of a report showing the covid-19 vaccine cut the likelihood of ER visits and hospitalizations for healthy adults last winter by about half, according to two scientists. wapo.st/4tFqKqY

God does not bless any conflict. Anyone who is a disciple of Christ, the Prince of Peace, is never on the side of those who once wielded the sword and today drop bombs. Military action will not create space for freedom or times of #Peace, which comes only from the patient promotion of coexistence and dialogue among peoples.

Absurd and inhuman violence is spreading ferociously through the sacred places of the Christian East, profaned by the blasphemy of war and the brutality of business, with no regard for people’s lives, which are considered at most collateral damage of self-interest. But no gain can be worth the life of the weakest, children, or families. No cause can justify the shedding of innocent blood.

Rarely has a people had such an *opportunity* to stop the evils of their government as we do right now. If we impeach and remove Trump, we will avert additional crimes against humanity. If we do not, history will judge us harshly. All of us. Yes, even me and you.
