I Watched All Six Hours Of Bondi’s Testimony So You Didn’t Have To. She Protected Predators and Melted Down Completely.Trump hired Bondi to not do her job and honestly she's crushing itThanks for being here and for refusing to back down. The Trump regime is throwing everything at us to break our will, but you’re proof it’s not working. The resistance has roared back to life—stronger and more organized than ever. I’m proud to be in this fight with you. Let’s jump in. LEADING BY EXAMPLE IN VERMONT
Nearly a dozen activists were arrested for staging a peaceful sit-in at an ICE facility in Williston, Vermont. As the police escorted them away, they sang: “Courage, my friend, all will be well. Though it may not seem so, all will be well.” Among those arrested was Peter Booth, who stated: “Everyone’s saying, ‘You’re so brave, this is so great you’re doing this.’ It’s nothing in comparison to how people’s lives are being absolutely destroyed.” Their demand was simple—that the property owner cancel the lease with ICE. The demonstrators ended up sending a message that went far beyond Vermont—that they refuse to be silent while this regime is invading our communities. OLYMPIANS SPEAK OUT
At age 54, Olympian Rich Ruohonen from Minnesota is the oldest American ever to compete at the Winter Games. And he wasn’t afraid to use a press conference in Italy to call out Trump’s abuse of power. “I am a lawyer ... we have a constitution, and it allows us … freedom of the press and freedom of speech, protects us from unreasonable searches and seizures and makes it that we have to … have probable cause to be pulled over. And what’s happening in Minnesota is wrong,” Ruohonen said.
And figure skater Amber Glenn, who just won gold for Team USA at this year’s Olympics, stated: “I know that a lot of people say, ‘You’re just an athlete, stick to your job, shut up about politics.’ But politics affect us all. It is something that I will not just be quiet about.” Absolutely. If you have a platform, you must use it—for good. And I’m glad these athletes are doing just that. BONDI’S EPSTEIN COVERUP
Yesterday, Attorney General Pam Bondi testified before the House Judiciary Committee. Within minutes, it was abundantly clear the Trump regime is only interested in protecting powerful men—not in getting justice for survivors. Dem Rep. Ted Lieu played the video clip of Trump and Epstein partying together at Mar-a-Lago, simply asking if there were minors present at that time. Bondi said: “There is no evidence that Donald Trump has committed a crime.” Lieu replied: “I believe you just lied under oath.”
At one point, Dem Rep. Pramila Jayapal asked Epstein survivors in the room to raise their hands if they still haven’t been given a meeting at the DOJ—every hand went up. Jayapal then asked Bondi to apologize. Instead, she sneered and looked away.
When Dem Rep. Becca Balint told her: “This is not a game, Secretary.” Bondi was eager to chime in: “I’m Attorney General.” Balint hit back: “My apologies. I couldn’t tell.” When Democrats pushed Bondi hard about Epstein’s accomplices not facing prosecution, she started ranting about the stock market. After the hearing, GOP Rep. Thomas Massie slammed Bondi: “She didn’t answer anything. She came here ready to talk about the Dow Jones and the Nasdaq, which seems kind of crazy to me.” This is what it looks like when an attorney general abandons survivors for authoritarianism. Protecting co-conspirators while screaming over simple questions. She thinks that bragging about the stock market is a good answer for why she hasn’t held anyone accountable. It’s not incompetence—this is what Trump hired her to do. Never forget this moment, because everyone responsible for this cover-up belongs in prison. And if we build enough power, that’s exactly where they’ll wind up. PUTIN’S PLAYBOOK DOESN’T WORK IN AMERICA
The Epstein cover-up isn’t the only one Pam Bondi is running at the DOJ. Dem Rep. Jamie Raskin confronted her during the hearing yesterday, stating: “When the FBI opened a criminal investigation into the brutal killing in Minneapolis of Renée Good—a poet and 37-year-old mother of three—by Trump’s masked paramilitary ICE agents, you shut it down.” Raskin also brought up the fact that the DOJ tried to indict six members of Congress—all Veterans—for seditious conspiracy. When all they did was make a video reminding troops not to follow unlawful orders. This is right out of Putin’s playbook: prosecute your opposition, intimidate them into silence, and make examples out of anyone who resists. But it’s not working—the grand jury refused to indict them. Dem Sen. Mark Kelly responded with: “When they try to criminalize dissent, that’s when you don’t back down. That’s when you organize harder.” LABOR FIGHTS TRUMP
“The billionaire class has declared war on working people, and we’re going to fight back,” United Auto Workers President Shawn Fain said during his recent union convention. Fain wasn’t just talking about 2026, but also 2028. They’re building a large political operation in swing states and getting organized against the regime. “You can’t fight oligarchy in one factory at a time … You have to fight it everywhere, all at once,” Fain stated. Our Midterm Accountability Project is doing just that. On top of our daily news brief, we’re building the infrastructure to win in the fall and beyond. But organizing at this scale takes a ton of work and it all runs on one thing—reader support. No corporate influence. No dark money. No nonsense. Just this community standing together to fight back.

When Mom accused me of stealing a box of cookies, she immediately forgave me when I told her the DOW was up. I mean, who wouldn’t? It works to answer any direct questions having nothing to do with the stock market. Scott, Bondi’s performance yesterday for an audience of one was pathetic, but not a surprise. Bondi showed her lack of character when she was the AG of Florida and took a bribe to refuse to enter a law suit against Trump University. Someone should remind her that Nixon never went to jail, but his AG did. I applaud those Olympians who have spoken out against the unconstitutional actions of the Trump administration. Their athletic accomplishments have given them an international spotlight and they are using it. BRAVO! Hi Scott As always thank you for your truthful articles. I see Bondi as dedicated to Cruelty and she has become it. 💥 this is the fire the resistance has been begging for. Ill just leave you all with some wisdom "The longer I live, the more deeply I learn that love — whether we call it friendship or family or romance — is the work of mirroring and magnifying each other's light." — James Baldwin Moving forward — your armor for today: Baldwin understood that survival is relational — it's not about individual toughness, it's about who sees you and who you see back. Today's headlines are designed to make you feel alone in the dark. They're not. Across Minneapolis, New York, Atlanta, and Detroit, people are showing up — at courthouses, at flagpoles, at community tables. Your job isn't to fix all of it. Your job is to mirror and magnify someone today. That's enough. That's the whole fucking thing. https://thistleandmoss.com/p/the-daily-exhale-homan-cucks-epa-burns-and-they-try-to-steal-our-flags Baldwin 💙 Thank you for distilling this down. It all is less overwhelming |
Im happy to do so. Consolidating to 1600 words over the 4000 words makes for a MUCH less painful read. But then we also do audio cuts for all our works, so that you can also just "listen" to them at will.
What an awesome, inspirational message that is desperately needed!!!
You are welcome
Tom “cash bag” Homan announced just over an hour ago the siege (or surge) on Minneapolis is over. They really showed us the way foreword, we owe them much.
I'll believe it when the people of Minnesota confirm the ICEholes have left.
Yes. Many Minnesotans report that nothing has changed. Walz and Frey have also noted that only 600 thugs have been drawn down, which means there are still about 2400 there.
I don't believe one word out of any of the mouths of the regime. Not one word. Liars and criminals. All of them. Where will they send the thug army next?
That is one of the most pressing questions in the Country at this moment. I would also point out that Bondi’s performance yesterday demonstrated just how little The Regime cares about Congress’ role as an investigative body. That is one of the scariest things to come out yesterday.
After that performance yesterday…..Pam Bondi made it necessary for ICE to retreat…..also there is the matter of needing voters to be on their side in this debacle of ICE funding!
Let’s remember, all working Americans should be on the same side in this fight!
Parties be damned…..justice for US is what is important!
Take our tax money, and like any democracy, return it to us in universal healthcare, childcare and food assistance! This isn’t “communist” this is common sense! Why should billionaires receive our hard earned tax money? Do they ever have enough????🐖🐖🐖🐖
These same leeches keep our workers underpaid, so our tax dollars subsidize their employees as well! Hence, they call us the “working poor” disgraceful !!!
Tax the Rich, they are the “Welfare Queens of 2026”
Let’s hold this administration accountable for the state we are in today….trump and the other parasites in his administration, have no
problem spending our money to keep us in line, and frivolous trips on our dime!
Let your Representative know lower funding of ICE is not acceptable…dissolve it…….or don’t expect your vote in November!
Evil exists in both parties, we need to overcome it!
TAX THE RICH🐖🐖🐖🐖🐖
Very well said. You have touched on everything that I believe in. These billionaires have made their fortunes on the backs of working people. Instead of increasing their wages when profits are high, they only give themselves huge bonuses.
News out of Tucson: the state's largest school district, Tucson Unified, is requiring training for all teachers and staff to report ICE as "unidentified intruders" on school grounds and use lockdown procedures to protect students:

This is a complex issue that ALL VOTERS should work to understand.
The BIG BEAUTIFUL DISASTER includes a great deal that you need to understand.
In addition, profitable corporations use their EXCESS PROFITS for STOCK BUYBACKS that increase that value of the STOCK by reducing the available SHARES.
President Biden attempted to address the issue, but failed.
If you don't understand what the BIG BEAUTIFUL DISASTER accomplished, you need to ask questions and read reliable sources that explain the consequences.
Not only was MEDICAID DESTROYED, but MEDICARE was significantly impacted by reducing doctors' reimbursements.
This will not only close many rural hospitals, but impact coverage elsewhere.
In MASSACHUSETTS, the UNINSURED CARE will be spread across ALL CARE.
ALL premiums will increase in anticipation of covering UNINSURED recipients.
In MASSACHUSETTS, the STEWARD BANKRUPTCY has impacted hospital closures requiring more expensive ambulance transports to other communities.
