True or false, it was between two consenting adults.

i have said this before but i think that the people who were “charmed” by epstein wanted to be charmed

For years they droned on about “the Deep State” - a powerful cabal that controlled everything.

Then they set their sights on “the Epstein list” - a powerful cabal that preyed on children.

(Spoiler: it’s the same cabal)

Now they’re in power, guess who is protecting this cabal?

They are.

Odd.

thinking about how i get anxious writing emails because i don't want to sound like a moron while larry summers is apparently typing emails like this:

u kno she dint want to talk tomorrow. make me bad pheel.

McGovern: You don't even have a health care plan. You been promising one for over a decade and we've never seen it, because it doesn't exist.

My takeaway from every new Epstein revelation is that some powerful people victimized many powerless young women, many more knew, some actively enabled it--and we're still being told that MeToo and accountability for sexual violence have gone too far

As more and more files come out, Ghislaine Maxwell has less and less leverage for a pardon or commutation. Things are really going to start heating up.

Still wondering what David Pecker at the Enquirer had in his safe.

"That is why I will sign the discharge petition right now to release the Epstein files" -- Rep. Grijalva

So he’s saying all the tariff money we took in is gone and we won’t be able to pay it back. There was always a possibility he could lose this lawsuit and have to refund the tariff money. We didn’t prepare for that possibility? He’s running the govt like he ran his casinos.

From street marches to court battles to the ballot box - we’ve challenged the power of this exceptionally unpopular president.

The lesson from each success we've had is that we need to ramp the political pressure up, always up, not back down, now more than ever.

Voters want a Democratic Party that fights back against the forces that have rigged the system and made their lives more difficult.

A party that comforts the afflicted and afflicts the comfortable —not a party that buckles and capitulates.

When will party leadership learn this lesson?

In the most predictable development ever, Mike Johnson is not committing to hold a House vote on ACA subsidies

Never forget who sold us out:

There is zero excuse for police, in a free society, to wear a mask.

Cowards

Pope Leo calls for ‘deep reflection’ about treatment of detained migrants in U.S. “Many people who have lived for years and years and years, never causing problems, have been deeply affected by what is going on right now,” Chicago-born pope says.

"Pope Leo said Scripture emphasizes the question that will be posed at the end of the world:

'How did you receive the foreigner, did you receive him and welcome him, or not? I think there is a deep reflection that needs to be made about what is happening'..."

Raskin: "South Korea gave him some kind of golden crown or something, and then he lowered their tariffs. That is a monarchist mercantilism, that is not the American system."

Beshear: Let me be clear. The president has both the funding and the authority to fund snap during a shutdown. In fact, every other president in every other shutdown has done so. People going hungry in this instance is a choice that this president has made.

That Texas gerrymander isn’t looking so smart anymore, now is it?

Oops.

Looks like the Dems will pick up 12 seats in the VA House of Delegates, which will go from 51-49 to 63-37 D-R. That's an honestly shocking result.

Walmart and McDonald’s are among the top employers of workers who rely on food stamps.

McDonald's CEO raked in $18.2M last year — over 1,000x the company's median employee pay.

Walmart's CEO pocketed $27.4M — 930x the company's median employee pay.

See the problem?

Well, if a lunatic tweeted it, then it must be true!

Do they typically award Nobel Peace prizes to someone who murders people every day by blowing up their boats while claiming they deserved it for transporting drugs, but doesn’t give them due process, a fair trial, or present any evidence or proof of guilt to anyone?

Never in the history of the US has any president openly and repeatedly called for the investigation, arrest & prosecution of his political opponents. While many continue to shrug these things off and normalize them, I will never stop pointing out that this is what autocrats do.

I have been charged in a federal indictment sought by the Department of Justice.

This political prosecution is an attack on all of our First Amendment rights. I’m not backing down, and we’re going to win.

It is all ONE BIG SCAM!!!

Remember folks, JD Vance was on food stamps as a child

The richest man on earth owns X.

The second richest man on earth is about to acquire TikTok and his family could soon own both Paramount and Warner Bros.

The third richest man owns Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp.

The fourth richest man owns The Washington Post.
