"There are about a thousand of us."

Yes, because the thing about girls is that they don't stay girls for very long. Which makes them disposable. And which means that men like Epstein need a huge supply.

Alan Dershowitz is one of those claiming Epstein was not a pedophile because he pleaded guilty to one count of having sex for money with a 17-year-and-10-month-old person. "That’s not a pedophile." See this important response from Julia Brown, the brave reporter who broke the news on this

Dear MAGA:

Donald wants to bring hundreds of thousands of foreign students into the US to benefit from US universities because he thinks Americans are too stupid.

He's giving billions of dollars to Argentina.

He's training Qatari pilots in Idaho.

Do you finally see that "America First" is BS?

Under Biden, the IRS launched a program for people to file their taxes FOR FREE (finally!)

Well, Trump ended it because TurboTax donated $1 million to him. This White House is just one big grift while the rest of us pay more for everything.

Good Morning! I took this photo in the Faroe Islands. It works for the #AlphabetChallenge #WeekSForShadows #EastCoastKin #Photography #Rainbow

With me in the center! Because...the rainbow's geometric center is precisely opposite the sun relative to my position, which is where the shadow falls.

every time you think the new WaPo editorial board can't embarrass itself any more, they manage to find a way.

Left: 'Texas gerrymandering is no big deal!', from August.
Right: 'Maryland gerrymandering is an affront to Western civilization!', from today.

I understand why we shut down American airspace for a few days after 9-11 to avoid a repeat attack but imagine shutting down American airspace to avoid releasing the Epstein files.

Mayor Mamdani. A photo of Zohran smiling. Zohran wins

26 billionaires spent over $22 million to beat Zohran Mamdani.

Why? Because regular people came together around an agenda that prioritized making life easier for more people. It beat big money.

That is how we win.

New Jersey and Virginia have chosen well by electing
@mikiesherrill.bsky.social and @spanbergerforva.bsky.social as their next governors!

They are proven leaders who won by focusing on what matters most - how politics and policy can make everyday life better and more affordable.

Have You Taken Freedom for Granted? A Saturday Prompt

Amazon is helping fund a $300 million build of a ballroom for the White House.

Independent bookstores are donating to food banks and organizations that help with food insecurity.

They are not the same.

We should not just be asking the real price of this ballroom, how it’s really being financed and how Trump could get away with this East Wing demolition and desecration of our history. We should find out whether he’s building an underground bunker and how much he’s stealing for himself.

This means a carrier with dozens of F/A-18s and two destroyers at least, joining 3 destroyers, an ARG with a Marine unit, a cruiser, a LCS and an attack sub. PLUS! The F-35s, B-1s, B-52s, Predator drones and more already flying around the Caribbean. And a Spec Ops floating base.
