Fucking evil GOP asshole funded evil shits are harming young children:
We're pediatricians. We see how ICE is harming children.
While Liam has returned home, this traumatic detention experience will forever remain a part of his memory. For the children who remain detained, ongoing, compounding trauma worsens by the day.
Fucking corrupt piece of shit treasonous GOP asshole:
On 15 January 2026, President Donald Trump pardoned a former FBI counterintelligence agent who had refused to testify about his work for Oleg Deripaska and Dmitry Rybolovlev – two Russian oligarchs with direct ties to Vladimir Putin’s inner circle.
The pardon came six months after the daughter of the former agent’s co-defendant, Julio Herrera Velutini, donated $3.5 million to Trump-aligned super PACs. The decision permanently sealed the record of services US intelligence officials secretly provided for sanctioned Russian networks.
Former FBI agent Mark T. Rossini’s business partner – Charles McGonigal, the agency’s former counterintelligence chief in New York – is currently serving more than six years in federal prison for taking Deripaska’s money.
Trump’s pardon extinguished the possibility that Rossini’s services to the Putin-linked oligarchs might come to light, including who directed that work, and whether it connected to Rossini’s involvement in a subsequent bribery scheme involving his co-defendants.
Seems like -- fucking Nazi GOP assholes
"For anyone who had ever wondered how the Germans turned a blind eye to the Holocaust, we are living through the answer. We watched it start in real time. “Trump promised he’d deport violent criminals,” I wrote last October. “Instead, ICE is going after legal residents and terrorizing children. The message: if you’re an American citizen, don’t exercise your First Amendment rights unless you want to become a target too.” Unfortunately, those words proved correct."
The myth that Donald Trump has a strategic vision took another hilarious blow on Sunday when he threw a tantrum familiar to anyone who has ever dealt with a diagnosable narcissist. Without apparently telling anyone who actually has to deal with it, the 79-year-old toddler president declared on Truth Social that he was shutting down the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts for two years following its Fourth of July celebrations.
This “decision” comes a mere six weeks after Trump pretended to be “surprised” and “honored” when the center’s board, which he leads, voted illegally to rename it the Trump-Kennedy Center, a name that no one seems interested in using, at least when out of Trump’s earshot. The president claims the closure, which will likely last the rest of his term, is about “Construction, Revitalization, and Complete Rebuilding.”
Few believe this. Most accept that it is an obvious reaction to the fact that a growing list of artists have cancelled shows at the Kennedy Center to avoid the taint of performing at a place where the word “Trump” was forced onto the building’s signage. The list of cancellations is so long that it has its own Wikipedia page, which features luminaries like Philip Glass, Béla Fleck, the Martha Graham Dance Company, the Washington National Opera and the entire cast of “Hamilton.”
The situation is a great example of how narcissists defeat themselves. As he’s done his whole life, Trump stole a trophy he didn’t earn in the hope that he would impress people. Instead, his grotesque behavior backfired and has drawn even more insults and rejections. But what’s even more fascinating is what this whole debacle tells us about the MAGA movement as a whole, and how Trump is the perfect symbol for their failed culture war aspirations.
U.S. Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick has said he had "limited interactions" with Jeffrey Epstein, but documents show they were in business together as recently as 2014. Lutnick and Epstein each signed on behalf of limited liability companies that agreed on Dec. 28, 2012, to acquire stakes in a now-shuttered advertising technology company called Adfin, documents released among the so-called Epstein files show.
Fucking planet-destroying GOP death cult assholes!

“Once again, President Trump is removing absurd obstacles to common sense management of our natural resources by rescinding the overly restrictive roadless rule,” said U.S. Secretary of Agriculturre Brooke Rollins in announcing recission of the federal Roadless Rule last year.
“Deforestation was a or the major factor in all the collapses of past societies described in this book,” reports Jared Diamond in his book, “Collapse: How Societies Choose to Fail or Succeed.”
The above statements represent two diametrically opposed views of the environmental importance of forests.
The first was quoted by Lynda Mapes in her essay “Wild Alaska At Risk,” published Jan. 4, in Pacific Northwest magazine. The second, from Diamond’s 2005 tome on the history of catastrophic collapses of entire civilizations, summarizes much of his extensive research into past societies that have engineered their own demise through egregious mismanagement of their natural resources, especially forests.

Because GOP assholes, that's why.
So I guess what I keep coming back to is we know who’s involved here. We know that, in some way, at some level, perhaps extensively, starting with being a child rapist, Donald Trump is implicated. We know that US Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick is in there planning to visit Epstein's pedophile island. There's Musk, Steve Bannon, and all these people that are still somehow involved in our public life, and yet there’s no price, and I can’t get my head around that. I mean, I understand that rich people don’t get punished, but I also understand that rich people don’t get caught. That’s the thing. That’s why rich people get away with it. They don’t get caught. Everybody here is caught.
Or at least accused, and accused with such detail and, in Trump's case, such consistency of stories, and so publicly (and we don't know what else still waits in the millions of pages that haven't been released, let alone the video recordings and photos), that it boggles the mind that we're not talking about a complete meltdown on Capitol Hill, if not the entire goddamned country. I remember when Barack Obama sat in the church where Reverent Jeremiah Wright preached and because Wright had occasionally said some controversial things, it almost undid Obama's candidacy in 2008. I remember Republicans (and some Democrats) losing their minds over the association and his presence in the space where Wright was. That proximity was enough. That was just with someone exercising multiple First Amendment rights. Here, it's with a motherfucking pedophile pimp who was convicted of hiring a child prostitute and was arrested for a shit-ton more a few years later. If you hung out with that guy, if you sent women to work for him, how does that not reflect poorly on you?
At the very least, Democrats and the Republicans who have made this a huge issue should be demanding a special counsel to investigate all of this, but that would mean independence from Trump and that shit just doesn't happen in this government. They should still push for it. And it should be in the front of voters' minds: you give us a majority and we will purge this government of the pedophiles. We will get justice for the victims who were treated so horrifically.
Wouldn't that be a delicious irony? According to QAnon, Trump was supposed to bring down the pedophile-filled Deep State of Democrats. Instead, he installed the pedophiles and protected them. And Democrats are the ones who could bring it to an end. Emphasis on "could."
Sent to the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Southern District of New York and addressed to two federal judges, the allegation sees a person claiming to be an Epstein victim accuse Johnny Martorano – a notorious hitman and mobster who’s admitted to killing 20 people – of rape. The purported victim also alleged that Martorano – who struck a plea deal in 1999 to serve only 12 years for his crimes – was in communication with Thomas. “John Martorano was the man who raped me and took a picture of me naked and said ‘let's take a picture for Clarence Thomas,’” the individual wrote.
