Opinion | The A.O.C. Deepfake Was Terrible. The Proposed Solution Is Delusional.

We had long ago lost photos as definite proof, given how easily they could be manipulated. Audio, too, is increasingly easy to fake. Video was among the last bastions of verification, exactly because it was difficult to fake. Now that that’s gone www.nytimes.com/2025/08/11/o...

They are going to burn up billions in taxpayer funded equipment because they don’t want Americans to have access to scientific proof

A Rape in Utah When a 13-year-old was raped, the GOP protected the rapist

When a 13-year-old was raped by a relative of the Utah State President, the Utah GOP allowed the rapist's lawyer to rewrite the law so the rapist could avoid years in prison and the requirement to register as a sex offender. unprecedented.ghost.io/archive/a-ra...

The $170 billion kidnapping machine is coming. Keep your town out of it. How to tell your local cops to get out of bed with Trump's secret police.

We can use the freedom we may still have... to do everything we can to keep our towns from abetting the MAGA kidnapping machine... local law enforcement still works for us—or their bosses do. www.thefarce.org/the-170-bill... via @thefarce.org

It's really easy to forget how deep Dan Bongino is into the Epstein conspiracy and now cover-up.

A Rape in Utah When a 13-year-old was raped, the GOP protected the rapist

Many people are asking: "If they're willing to protect Trump from the #EpsteinFiles, what else will they do?"

Here's a clue: When a 13-year-old was raped by a relative of the Utah State President, the Utah GOP changed the law to protect the rapist. unprecedented.ghost.io/archive/a-ra...

The FBI As We Knew It is Gone It took a hundred years to create the Bureau as we knew it. And it took one dinner at the White House to destroy it.

I know we have seen a lot of agencies being hobbled and dismantled over the last six months. But the coup happening at the FBI should worry you the most asharangappa.substack.com/p/the-fbi-as...

In 2023, I wrote about how the stated goal ("protecting kids") of the GOP's new focus on banning books (a campaign led by #Project2025 creators Heritage and Moms for Liberty) intersected with Christian conservatives actual goal of turning girls into tradwives unprecedented.ghost.io/archive/rede...

They also want child marriage. Jesus!🤬

The Client and the Madam A 1997 article in the UK's Sunday Mirror is a crucial part of the Trump-Maxwell "paper trail"

In 1997, nine years before Epstein's first arrest, a UK tabloid formerly owned by Robert Maxwell, referred to his 35-year-old daughter Ghislaine as "Madam Maxwell," noting that she had "introduced several of her attractive friends" to 51-year-old Donald Trump. unprecedented.ghost.io/archive/the-...

The Epstein Client-in-Chief 29 undeniable truths about Trump and Jeffrey Epstein

Many in the GOP proudly call Trump their "Daddy."

As a dad, he's fantasized about sex with Ivanka, crept in on teen pageant contestants, cheated on 3 wives, bragged about assaulting women & been found liable for "rape."

He was Epstein's BFF for 15 years.

Normalizing Child Rape No teenager is safe from today's Republicans

Whether its the recent case in Utah, the Matt Gaetz scandal, or the #EpsteinCoverUp, it's clear that the so-called party of "Christian family values" is now in the business of protecting pedophiles and, in effect, normalizing child rape.

The Rapeublican Party Trump's GOP has embraced sexual exploitation and violence.

Following Trump's re-election, he openly mocked survivors of sexual exploitation by nominating Matt Gaetz as Attorney General.

Even though that plan fell apart, others with disqualifying sex scandals— Pete Hegseth, RFK, Jr. and Linda McMahon— were confirmed. unprecedented.ghost.io/archive/the-...

The Case Against Matt Gaetz Or: If the DOJ says sex with children is OK, why did Anthony Weiner go to prison for sexting with a minor?

For years, Matt Gaetz was "Butthead" alongside "Beavis" Jim Jordan.

Unlike Anthony Weiner, who went to prison for "sexting" a minor, Gaetz avoided punishment for sex trafficking and statutory rape—even after his partner-in-crime was jailed.

The Rapist's Best Friend Loudmouth thug and failed legislator Jim Jordan has only one demonstrable talent: protecting rapists

Jim Jordan was aware of—and enabled—thousands of instances of sexual abuse at Ohio State, as detailed in the new documentary "Surviving Ohio State."

But when this thuggish creep became one of Trump's top defenders in Congress, his star rose within the party. unprecedented.ghost.io/archive/the-...

By embracing a self-confessed serial predator of underage girls and women, the GOP opened the floodgates to a new age of depravity.

Trump welcomed a convicted pedophile to the White House and hired members of a depraved child porn group.

GOP: Gang of Pedophiles The list of Republican and Trump-connected child rapists, sex traffickers, pedophile enablers and child porn offenders keeps growing

The GOP smears Mexicans as "rapists" & Drag Queens & teachers as "groomers." But it's far more forgiving to white Christian perpetrators.

Mike Huckabee was more offended by Obama letting his kids listen to Beyoncé than he was by Josh Duggar molesting children. unprecedented.ghost.io/archive/gop-...
