Now the Christian Zionists at Heritage are furious (they can't afford for Nazis to wipe out the Jews, they need the Jews to spark the apocalypse).

The rest of the conservative establishment is freaked out realizing that a lot of DC staffers are Fuentes fans-- literal Nazis, in other words.

Steve Bannon is all over the newly released Jeffrey Epstein emails, raising questions about the 15 hours of interviews he has promised to release Newly released emails to and from the late sex offender Jeffrey Epstein include correspondence with former Trump strategist Steve Bannon, expanding on previous reporting that Bannon had up to 15 hours...

Seems bad! www.mediamatters.org/steve-bannon...

Megyn R. Kelly.

As seen elsewhere on the Internets.

so glad the child sexual abuse panic was squarely pointed at folks like me by the people actually doing it & the public was like “yeah, seems right—freaks did it. not the men with all the money & fighting to keep child marriage legal, the women that are legal to kill in 30 states if you’re nervous.”

Blurred lines: how Michael Wolff aspired to be part of elite circles he wrote about The writer who features prominently in newly released Jeffrey Epstein emails has achieved extraordinary access but faced questions about his journalistic ethics

Michael Wolff tried to buy New York Mag — with money from Harvey Weinstein and Jeffrey Epstein.

So Wolff didn't just have a reporter-source relationship with Epstein. Nor was Wolff his informal PR adviser. They saw each other as potential business partners.

Guess which messaging push caught on to the point the president is Mad about it zeteo.com/p/trump-affo...

The conspiracy crowd’s reaction to the Epstein emails? Yawn. Far-right conspiracy theorists and influencers are a big reason the Epstein scandal hasn’t died. But the newly released emails about Trump haven’t impressed them.

I swear to God if Jeffrey Epstein had described Hillary Clinton as "that dog that hasn't barked," in secret emails these people would be making rabid content for days and calling for tribunals but ok www.msnbc.com/msnbc/news/e...

US Mint presses final pennies as production ends after more than 230 years The U.S. has ended production of the penny. The last 1-cent coins were made Wednesday at the mint in Philadelphia.

I'm glad that the end of the penny is happening during Trump's administration because if it had happened under a Democratic president, you'd 100% have had the right freaking out with a "look what they took from you!!!" rage apnews.com/article/us-m...

Jeffrey Epstein Claimed Intimate Knowledge of Donald Trump’s Views in Texts With Bill Gates Adviser In text messages from 2017, Jeffrey Epstein seemingly represented himself as positioned to pass information from the Trump White House to Bill Gates through an intermediary.

God, Barstool Sports is just the skeeziest company, isn't it?

At the same time the NY Times was hyping Hillary Clinton's emails, it had a reporter with emails from Jeffrey Epstein that were highly damaging to Trump.

The more NYT apologists try to minimize this the clearer it becomes that they don't understand why much of the public doesn't trust legacy media.

Really difficult to overstate the fury one should feel that the GOP and institutions like the New York Times went all in on transphobia as some mortal threat to women and girls while covering up something like this.

megyn kelly keeping this one fresh

Megyn Kelly: "I know somebody very close to this case…Jeffrey Epstein, in this person's view, was not a pedophile…He was into the barely legal type, like he liked 15 year old girls…He wasn't into like 8 year olds…There's a difference between a 15 year old and a 5 year old."

Jesus Christ, I would have been fired into the sun by the US Attorney if I pulled this shit

I think it's the "saving up for braces" part of this story that adds a whole new level of ick. Like... that's a kid, man

He's undoubtedly planning the Mother of all Distractions but can't think of anything to top flying over a city in a crown dropping poo on American citizens.

I can't believe this literally happened

"taking jobs from Americans" really gives away the game. This guy just hates immigrants and thinks they don't belong here, and can be treated as sub-humans.

Jasmine Crockett: "If people decide that they want to continue to support person who may be a pedophile themselves or a person who obviously is covering on pedophiles, that's on them. But they should at least know the devil they decided to pick."

Hmmmm wouldn’t he need jobs data to know this?

This is a conversation between a tanning-salon nut who became HHS Secretary, and a shape-shifter who grovels to a man he once called "America's Hitler."

30 years ago, an HHS/VP convo would have meant Donna Shalala and Al Gore.

this has been a common refrain among the New Right on X, despite the fact that it makes absolutely no sense when you think about it

“It’s 4chan s**t": The govt's deranged social media presence "You see Trump administration accounts that look like they’re literally run by Groypers," Charlie Warzel tells us.

New in PN: “It’s 4chan shit" — @cwarzel.bsky.social on the federal government's deranged social media presence

"Now you see Trump administration accounts that look like they’re literally run by Groypers. What Homeland Security is tweeting out isn’t even dog-whistling anymore."

The exceptionalism of American Capitalism; convincing the masses that it is morally just to make life as difficult as possible for their neighbors so that a select few can profit comfortably off our collective subjugation by the system.

That fall, the girl moved to live with a family member in Texas, according to Ms. Wolf. She did not complete her senior year in high school. She continued to work for minimum wage in the food services industry. Ultimately, between the money she made from her interactions with men and in the food services industry she was able to save up enough money to get braces.

In this paragraph, we have a heartbreakingly bleak portrait of American society as it actually exists.

For all the public furor over Mr. Gaetz - who always asserted that he broke no laws even as the House Ethics Committee found that he violated Florida's statutory rape laws - little attention has been given to the story of the girl, how she came to be exploited and how she has coped with what happened to her and the ensuing political scandal.

I understand how paragraphs like this emerge from the editing process, but of course “little attention has been given” to a story no one knew about a minor victim whose identity was protected by a bunch of laws.

As Schmidt says in his post, this is our first encounter with this information.
