Sent to Angus King and Susan Collins, I’m sure she’s concerned.

done. I watched Katy Phang on YouTube where she explained her lawsuit in detail. Bravo to her and Judge Sullivan and you, Scott, for being relentless in getting to the bottom of this plague.

The folks in Festus, MO who fired 4 city councilmen for their actions on the datacenter have certainly shown us how it’s done!

At first glance I thought “Festus” was “Fetus” which I’m sure an analogy can be made.

I LOVE to see it.

Every time the regime tried to hide something this week, someone pushed back...and WON!

A judge.

A journalist.

A handful of voters in towns most people never think about.

Pressure works. Keep pushing.

Thank you Senator Murphy, thank you Katie Phang and thank you to all those who told their state Congresspeople and Commissioners-NOT IN OUR STATE!!! Now let’s tackle the Detention Centers and see more released back to their communities, then detained AND NO to disappearing neighbors because this Administration is made up of the most racist, bigoted hateful crackpots!!! Thank you for good news on a Sunday…

WELL SAID! I totally agree! WE have leaders across this country that know right from wrong and we must salute them! WE must demand OUR Rights to Freedom of Speech, Freedom of Religion, Freedom to Protest. And I might add Freedom to throw the bum out!

I live in a small town outside of San Marcos, TX. I am so proud of them standing up and saying no to all data centers. Scott, thank you for reminding me every morning of so many brave, relentless acts of resistance. It gives me hope.

What I see in all of this is pretty simple: people are tired of being treated like garbage. They acted. And a few powerful people finally had to answer for it.

That’s a huge win for accountability. And it’s long overdue.

Well said—thank you!

I believe this is the crack that will end up like the blue paint in the reflecting pool. This crack has to happen completely so that Trump and all the PEDOPHILES will be exposed. This is for the victims who were CHILDREN! Come on American! Let’s take this country back and have compassion!!

Step on a crack, break the regime’s back!

They are protesting here in Sussex County Delaware every weekend. There are sign waves scheduled for the 4th of July weekend. This is a tourist area by the beaches of Rehoboth, Bethany, also Ocean City, MD. Katie Phang is our hero. We all must keep up the pressure to uncover the truth. Never give up, never surrender. 💪🇺🇸🌊💙

Maybe a hairline fracture. But, we need people to turn and crack this corruption wide open. It is sick!

We do have to keep up the pressure. Including objecting to Todd Blanche as the AG

after he showed his colors by interviewing Ghiselaine Maxwell and then setting her up

in a Country Club prison. What did she agree to to get that special treatment?

Probably by promising to never mention Trump's part in the Epstein crimes.

We emailed our Senator Coons yesterday. He is a member of the Judiciary Committee. We are disturbed that on May 6th the A G. can now send federal prisoners anywhere in the U.S. This was not the norm before. Look up Liz Oyer for details. Absolutely no to Todd Blanche, who has displayed that he has no integrity or ethics.

Their behavior is beyond corrupt that I can only imagine what lengths they will go to and then multiply that by 100.

I mean… how many more distractions can we take?!?!?!?

Sandy S's avatar

Seems to me DJT has also created his own share of distractions! Not much going well for DJT as he tries to clean up or ignore one mess after another!

Gloria J Parsons's avatar

As many as we have to. So far each distraction becomes something ridiculously laughable. How many times have we laughed at the great green pool. We can tolerate the distractions. It’s the whole regime which must not be tolerated.

Thank you for your undying support for our Democracy and your unwavering reporting!

You have probably heard what John Oliver showed on his show. The Australian Soccer

Team showed up in song saying, "The Aussies are on a bender: Donald Trump is a sex offender".

You can find it on YouTube. It's delightful.

And I'm waiting for the reports on how Trump was (will be) "booed" when he gives out the

FIFA trophies. He has offended so many of the countries.

AND, in spite of everything Trump is doing, people like Katie Phang are showing the world that

the concept of Democracy is worth fighting for.

As far as the Bankruptcy King Grifter, they are a family of villains who have learned to cheat

and steal as their legacy.

I don’t know if this is what finally will get the Epstein Files released; T**** does seem committed to burying them, and for some reason he has lots of friends who support that position. But there’s just so much bad news that people are sick of it. We need the filth and corruption washed clean. We all feel like that reflecting pool: sullied and betrayed. DOWN WITH THE REGIME.

Patrick P's avatar

Thanks Scott, I don't care how long it takes to claw back every corrupt back room deal Trump has made to family and cronies, it has to be done. Furthermore, we must repair all of his damages done to the DOJ, FBI, HLS and reform ICE. If the Supreme Court gets in the way, they will have to be reformed also, however, their lack of integrity will make it difficult to accomplish.

Judy Sherwood's avatar

Yes, claw back every penny stolen by the trump family... apparently there's about 3 or 4 billion dollars - so far. That would make a nice dent in the national debt. And help to repair the damages to the White House Oval Office, East Wing, South lawn, rose garden, reflecting pool

Today is Use Your Imagination Day.

(yes, I made this up)

Imagine Barack Obama's presidency. Imagine that Obama had the Epstein background Trump has. (Impossible, of course, because Obama is the very model of what Republicans used to call family values.)

Ask your local Republican representative to imagine it, too, and how a Republican Congress would have handled that situation.

Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Is this the crack that finally breaks the Epstein cover-up open? Tell me what you think. I will take every crack as a win.

Are there still any demonstrations happening near you these days? Tell me about them. Good question, need to find my tribe(s) lol 😂

Charles Bastille's avatar

I used to worry that there weren't massive demonstrations in the streets, but I don't think that's how it works anymore. People seem to be taking more direct action. Like when ICE comes a visitin', the whistles come out. The immigration lawyers gear up. When data centers come to town, people flock to their city councils and say, "NOPE."

I think people are taking more direct action. Nothing wrong with protest, of course, but I'm no longer worried that there isn't more of it right now.

Judy Sherwood's avatar

all of the above Charles... a multitude of actions everywhere all the time: phone calls, marches, emails, letters, protests, signs, legal actions, whistles, neighbors, everyone doing SOMETHING CONSTANTLY! Keeping the pressure ON!
