#WhyDidntIReport at 5 because I didn't really understand, at 10 because I thought it was my fault & he threatened me and at 19 because it was my boyfriend who raped me and I was ashamed and thought I must have done something to deserve it.

🚨BREAKING: ICE agents taunt our @JordanChariton outside Delaney Hall ICE prison and then suddenly go quiet when he puts microphone in their face and asks them questions. WATCH LIVE ⬇️

People worry too much about who or what created the Earth and not enough about who or what is destroying it.

I saw an interview with Stephen Miller where he said that they just take your word for it on SNAP benefits. He said they don't even check if you really have children or not. This isn't even a "lie." It's just saying stupid shit (excuse the language, but that's the word that works). It's so far from true that it's silly. It's easier to get a car loan than to get SNAP. It's a very long and thorough vetting process. And this is just one example among hundreds. Whether they're saying Iran was about to get nuclear weapons (they weren't), the Biden DOJ was "weaponizing the DOJ" by prosecuting people who attempted treason, or just about anything. They are the party of just saying shit. They have no regard for truth or reality. They have no curiosity or will to improve anything. They don't learn. They don't understand. They just say shit. All they do is say shit. And I really can't deal with it anymore. How can you have an honest debate with a dishonest person?

This is a hard-fought win. But don't expect the fight to end here. Trump will continue pushing states to redraw their maps to secure his own power by diluting Black representation in Congress — and we have to keep fighting it.

“AND YOU STILL DARE TO OPEN YOUR MOUTH…” Sasha Legerman: This is too accurate not to share. This Australian’s response to Trump’s rant that “NATO does nothing for America” is absolutely devastating: “Mate. You run a country where 600,000 homeless people will sleep on the streets tonight. A country where 40% of adults can’t cover a $400 emergency without borrowing money. A country where insulin costs more than a car payment, and people ration it just to stay alive. A country where medical debt is the number one cause of bankruptcy. A country where women die in hospital parking lots because doctors are too afraid of abortion laws to treat miscarriages. You imprison more of your own citizens than any country on Earth. More than China. More than Russia. More than North Korea. In the land of the free, 2 million people sit in cages, and a quarter of them haven’t even been convicted of anything. They’re simply too poor to afford bail. Your life expectancy is declining. You’re the only developed nation where that’s happening. Your infant mortality rate is worse than Cuba’s. Your children practice active shooter drills between math and English classes while you sell defense stocks to your friends. Your minimum wage hasn’t changed in 15 years. Your teachers work two jobs, your veterans sleep under bridges, and you just spent a trillion dollars flattening a country that never attacked you. And now a convicted criminal — found liable for sexual abuse, defending a pedophile, sleeping with a porn star, and running the biggest dumpster-fire campaign since the Taliban — is thanking you for yet another disaster. And you call Greenland badly governed? Greenland has universal healthcare. Free education. One of the lowest incarceration rates in the world. Nobody there goes bankrupt because they got sick. Nobody dies in a waiting room because insurance refused treatment. ‘NATO wasn’t there when we needed them.’ When exactly was that, champ? September 11? Because NATO invoked Article 5 for the first and only time in history FOR YOU. Soldiers from dozens of countries deployed, fought, bled, and died in Afghanistan FOR YOU. Australia wasn’t even in NATO, and we still showed up. For twenty years. And then you left at 2 a.m. without telling anyone and left everybody else to clean up the mess. You don’t care that a great nation is being terrorized by your friend, and you haven’t shown it a single ounce of sympathy. So maybe before calling other countries badly governed, take a look at your own backyard, you aluminum siding salesman with a spray tan. The only thing badly managed in this picture is your damn mouth. And you still dare to lecture the rest of the world?”

Crews have now begun constructing a stage set up for UFC cage matches on the bulldozed White House lawn which will host the event on the orange felon’s 80th birthday. Embarrassing, disgraceful, wasteful and trashy AF. I truly hate him and all who rabidly worship him.

Thomas Massie drops MASSIVE Melania-Epstein bombshell. In a stunning live interview on NBC, Rep. Thomas Massie directly implicated Melania Trump in the Epstein files scandal, suggesting she knows much more than she is saying and must be questioned to get to the truth.

Any news orgs digging into claims in the Epstein Files that our current president allegedly raped a 13-year-old girl?

YES: Thomas Massie to read the redacted names of Epstein's billionaires aloud on the House floor, and thanks to a constitutional loophole, nobody can stop him or sue him for it.

President Trump wants billions in taxpayer dollars for his ballroom and a “weaponization fund.” What could we do instead? A lot. We could fix every dam in Michigan, replace every single lead pipe, or feed kids in schools for 10 years.

Trump is bringing the UFC to DC for his birthday. We're bringing the Epstein Files. That's right: the Trump-Epstein Reading Room is heading to DC, just in time for his birthday.

Ken Paxton was charged with securities fraud, bribery, and he was impeached as TX attorney general, then he basically pardoned a child rapist. He's the perfect Trump-endorsed candidate.

Ken Paxton offered a man 1 day in jail for raping a little boy. Today Texas Republicans made him the GOP nominee for US Senate. The Republican Party protects people who rape kids.

Some good news today. South Carolina has chosen NOT to move forward with gerrymandering for the time being. AND a court has blocked Alabama’s gerrymander. The fight continues. But these small victories are important. Keep the faith.

Let me be the first to volunteer to scrape all of the fake gold stuff off the Whitehouse walls as soon as Trump is gone. Who is with me? We can have lunch by the cement pond.

In Louisiana, an unspoken agreement between the appellate judges in the 5th Circuit was to deny and ignore EVERY petition by a Black person seeking appeal. This horrific evil was revealed when one of the 3 people who tried to expose this committed suicide and left a note @propublica.org reports: propublica.org/article/louisi…

Holy shit, trump and Republicans have been lying to our faces about gas prices coming down quickly... They're going to take SIX YEARS just to get back to where it was when Joe Biden left office, $3.10. How is this not a bigger story?

AI is trained on human creativity and intelligence, funded by federal research using taxpayer dollars, and powered by data centers built on American land. The success of AI should belong to all of us. It’s time to tax AI and invest in people.

Since my car accident, I have been trying to bounce back selling art full time. I suffered a fractured spine after nearly losing my life. I appreciate any support I get mentnelson.bigcartel.com
