Senator in 2010 deposition: 13-year-olds can consent to sex U.S. Sen. James Lankford of Oklahoma testified as part of a civil case into an alleged sexual assault at the Baptist church camp he oversaw that he believed a 13-year-old can consent to sex.

Just throwing this out there for reasons

‘Peace Through Trump’ in Ukraine? Don’t Count on It. Trump rolled out the red carpet. Putin rolls out new missiles.

Unfortunately, U.S. support for Ukraine remains essential, and it remains in the hands of an ego-driven, volatile, ignorant man easily wooed with fabulism and flattery. www.thebulwark.com/p/peace-thro...

Marcus Mumford on Taylor Swift recording “evermore” at his studio:

"She was the most phenomenal house guest and she brought a killer candle, her candle game was excellent, and she finished the second half of Evermore in our studio."

“These rich, powerful old men are like 11-year-old boys talking about the crush that they have, and they're asking Jeffrey Epstein for advice about this.”

@timmiller.bsky.social and Alex Wagner discuss how the Epstein emails reveal how sex, power, and insecurity warped the elite.

Yesterday, I pleaded not guilty to the charges that Trump’s DOJ has hit me with in federal court.

This administration is targeting me because they can see that I’ve spoken out against them and will continue to stand up to them.

Soon, we'll oversee a budget of more than $100 billion — and every dollar will reflect our commitment to working New Yorkers and delivering universal childcare. Good thing some little New Yorkers gave me a counting lesson today!

This is absolutely 💯 percent correct.

WTF? In what part of our society is an adult having sex with 15 year olds legal?

Annie Karni @anniekarni Trump himself called Boebert, regarding her signing onto the Epstein petition and spoke to her yesterday, I am told. Trump playing phone tag with Mace. So far, they are not planning to remove their names from the petition.

this should be obvious but the reason Trump is working desperately against Epstein transparency is because he's guilty

About half of what it was going to cost to fully fund SNAP in November during the shutdown.

He’s Acting Pretty Damn Guilty Trump usually acts like a guy with something to hide. But his Epstein behavior is on another level.

Trump's unpopularity is as real as his authoritarian agenda. www.thebulwark.com/p/hes-acting...

These are hard words to type, but: Lauren Boebert is right.

The Verdict of History Trump and his fascist glorification

open.substack.com/pub/robertre...
Great quick read from Robert Reich
Trump is a monster. He is an aspiring dictator who wants to wield the same power as a Stalin or Hitler, and he wants to be remembered through statues, stadiums and ballrooms.
He should be remembered as both a liar and traitor

Priorities.

The language he uses is revealing... when he says "concoct something," that's exactly what he means. Hassett always looks shifty and dishonest and that's exactly what he is.

“would you like photos of donald and girls in bikinis in my kitchen?” -Jeffrey Epstein

A tweet from MAYRA (@LePapillonBlu2) says: “That’s what happens with unchecked power.” Below is a headline screenshot from The Independent that reads: “Trump admits he didn’t have to tear down East Wing for ballroom, but just wanted to.” A subheadline adds that Trump addressed reports of backlash from former first ladies.

When you have to check if it’s The Onion or a real headline.

The front page of today’s @nydailynews.com.

A teenage girl just alleged she had sex with Matt Gaetz while living in a homeless shelter because she was saving up money to pay for braces to fix her teeth.

She had just finished her junior year of high school.

For far too many families, the cost of childcare is driving them out of the city they love.

New Yorkers deserve to be able to afford to raise families here.
