Thomas Massie just went nuclear on Trump’s DOJ for bringing zero “charges, arrests, or investigations” over the Epstein files.

“Who should be investigated?”

“I’ll name them right here.”

“Leon Black.”

“Jes Staley, accused of terrible things.”

“Leslie Wexner.”

“Why did the FBI list him as a co-conspirator in their own documents in a child sex trafficking case, and then tell him that they had no questions for him?”

“Over 3 million documents describing horrible things, unspeakable things, much of it redacted.”

“Over two dozen people have resigned, CEOs, members of government worldwide.”

“But I haven’t seen any arrests or investigations here in the United States.”

“Prince Andrew, Duke of York, who has since been stripped of his royal titles due to his affiliation with Jeffrey Epstein, has been arrested.”

“Peter Mandelson, who previously served as UK’s ambassador to the United States, resigned in disgrace from UK’s House of Lords and the Labour Party, and he’s been arrested.”

“Former Prime Minister of Norway, Thorbjørn Jagland, has been charged.”

“But we don’t see any charges, arrests, or investigations in the United States.”

“What do we see?”

“We see our FBI director celebrating in the locker room at the Olympics overseas.”

“We need justice.”

It’s important that you understand what happened last night.

Last night, Stephen Colbert interviewed Democratic Texas Senate candidate James Talarico, a candidate who, by all accounts, is on track in the polls to flip Texas blue.

In response, Trump’s FCC reportedly threatened CBS if the interview aired.

CBS caved and pulled the segment, citing “financial reasons.”

In modern American history, no president has been more hostile to free speech than Donald Trump.

But censorship always backfires.

Here’s the full segment Trump didn’t want you to see.

‼️‼️‼️MASS EXECUTIONS‼️‼️‼️

Translation:

I was contacted from Tehran. I am a lawyer.
Several thousand people are being held in large warehouse-like halls in Kahrizak — many of them young — on death row.

— So they’re putting everyone into these halls under the label of “prison”?
— Yes. And they are being executed in groups.

Afterwards, they are registered as “killed on previous days” before being transferred.

There is no trial. No due process. There is no real court.

A so-called forensic authority retroactively approves the cause of death for previous days.

The executions have not stopped, because there is no functioning court to stop them.

Our hearts and eyes are filled with blood, grief, and rage.

The Iranian uprising has become an awkward dilemma for much of the left. It is openly pro-Western, unapologetically secular, and explicitly hostile to political Islam. There is no favored “exotic victim” to romanticize, no anti-American slogans to recycle, no colonial guilt to put to use and for that very reason, exposes how selective so many proclaimed solidarities really are.

[Visegrád 24 @visegrad24]

Tens of thousands of Iranian Pahlavi supporters and their Canadian allies have taken to the streets of Toronto in support of the anti-regime uprising in Iran.

They came out in droves despite the worst weather conditions imaginable

A 100,000 Iranian Canadians protest the Islamic Regime in Toronto during a snowstorm.

Iranians around the world are aware this is the closest they’ve come from being free from its vicious regime.

All the regime is trying to do is buy time.

Hello world — can you hear us?
In just two days:
Over 25,000 human lives.
Over 25,000 shattered families.
Over 25,000 stolen loves.
Over 25,000 dreams of freedom crushed.
Under digital darkness,
Ali Khamenei carried out a massacre.
Silence is complicity.
🆘BE THEIR VOICE.
