I think they call that "negging"

That's exactly the point isn't it. Mandelson was at the core of a rotten project. Of course he had support from people who had something to gain from this particular flavor of sleaze

Support from who?

Employing Mandelson was pointless and self-destructive

Ironically, so were a lot of the Finnish shrieks and Japanese death grunts

Not to mention that the only person in prison is a woman

Unbelievable framing from the guardian

The "brains behind Labour's come back" was the same "brains" behind the collapse in the first place...

They've barely achieved anything, anything they have done has been with great reluctance, all while continuing the blarite project of selling all our defence and health contracts to overtly hostile american firms.

All while proporting to "end the sleeze" with mandelson and mcsweeny at the core

I have a theory...

Military Pressured to See ‘Melania’ Against Their Will A military group has evidence of troops being ordered into theater—the movie theater.

Tell me exactly how this hagiography wasn't a Bezos giving Trump a Bribe?

How much did Bezos pay Melania for this?

How much would it have cost to not fire all the WAPO staffers?

Two statistics I can take no credit for...

Trump appears more often in the epstein files than harry potter appears in harry potter

Trump appears more often in the epstein files than jesus appears in the bible

Epstein files shed more light on Steve Bannon’s efforts to influence European politics Donald Trump’s former adviser told Epstein in 2019 that he was ‘focused on raising money for Le Pen and Salvini’ before European elections

At some point the right needs to stop circle jerking about "owning libs" and ask themselves what the fuck they think they are doing to the world

"Why are you using twitter"
"Becauae everyone else is"
"Where did you hear that"
"From twitter lol"

Official UK Government policy

At this point, they are probably benchmarking pelicans on bikes too, thanks to you

All these people shocked and appalled at Mandelson...

His relationship with epstein, trading favours, lobbying on behalf of the ultrawealthy, leaks and scheming... this is just business as usual for people like him

This time the business just happened to be with a prolific peadofile

How is it that I, internetuser#3814817 knew Epstein was a peodphile fixer since like 2013 or something, and mandelson was his friend...

Yet Starmer can play the "I was lied to" card, and everyone else can play the "i knew nothing about the abuse" card

He was in the inner circle. Unfortunately that circle was more of a "ring"

Part of the reason there is so little fallout around the Epstein files in the US is the choice of redaction.

Gates, Clinton, Bannon, Chomsky... these people are not exactly in favour with the Trump admin, and provide a valuable distraction

The redactions were a political choice

Found by accident... not even the file I was looking for.

😦 #epsteinfiles

"Donald J. Trump had r.... her along with Jeffrey Epstein."

...she was found with her head "blown off" in Kiefer, OK. Officers on the scene and stated there was no way it was a suicide. Corner stated it was a suicide.

The traffiking is not even the biggest part of the Epstein story to me.

It's the curtain dropping on the anarcho-fascist network we all knew existed, from Bannon to Putin, and the bizarre way this guy was everyone's best friend

Very late to the party learning Teraform, but thoroughly enjoying it.

Learning new tech in the world of LLMs is such a fluid experience

As absolutely 🍿 as the Epstein file release is...

Don't forget that the DOJ has sat on these with Trump in office for a year...

The Trump Administration splices the Epstein files into the Melania movie so they can say they were released without anyone actually seeing them.
