I would like to share something.
A year ago, Trump won and I was furious and scared so I sent a text to a few of local women I knew and asked them to join me at a meeting and invite like-minded women they knew. A few showed up, then a few more. We became a group called The Salon and we meet monthly

Centre-left tipped to lose Copenhagen for first time in electoral history
Political rivals say PMโs divisive politics have encouraged voters to ditch the Social Democrats for the far right
The Danish party that inspired Labourโs hardline immigration policy is on course to lose Copenhagen for the first time in more than a hundred years.
Among the reasons cited: fatigue and frustration with its hardline immigration policy.

capping a week of stories about elite depravity with a story about a journalist who broke basically every possible ethical rule (and was rewarded for it) to elevate an unqualified wealthy failson who is trying to destroy american public health is, well, it's a lot, tbh

The New York Times **HAD EMAILS IN ITS POSSESSION** tying Donald Trump directly to Jeffrey Epstein's global elite pedophile cabal conspiracy โโ in the middle of a 2016 election where a global elite pedophile cabal conspiracy was a HUGE topic โโ and they didn't publish one word it for a decade.

you could fact check this โ there arenโt 30 million illegal immigrants and there is no evidence that the presence of an immigrant in say houston has any impact on housing in madison, wisconsin โ or you could note straightforwardly that this is just nazi rhetoric

As all this disgusting Epstein shit starts surfacing more and more, I hope we don't lose sight of the fact that apparently every major media outlet knew everything and instead spent their time money and energy attacking the trans community.

Local media is calling it: Katie Wilson will be the next mayor of Seattle.
Wilson ousts Mayor Bruce Harrell after running as a progressive challenger.
Her win is a west coast companion to Mamdaniโs as a statement victory for the left.

The value of reading history is you know that in 1860 there were abolitionists who were so demoralized that they thought chattel slavery would be permanent. 5 years later those still alive had lived to see its end.

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

Another thing this email trove has convinced me of is that NYT has been actively and consciously helping Trump since 2015. It wasn't just casual sexism, double standards, and political reporting Kayfabe. They were doing catch and kill

Incredible how much dirt the Dems had on Trump and never used it 'cause the Epstein case hits a bunch of their own guys. Their donor class and the guys they advance as major candidates have so much more in common with him than with you.

Bovino and many of his agents are headed to another city. Reports indicate that Charlotte and NOLA are upcoming targets. But there will still be ICE attacks in Chicago, as there were before, and we need to remain responsive. We also have a lot of deep prep work to do, bc they will be back in force.

You think the media that considered the suggestion of influence a scandal when Clinton said hi to Loretta Lynch would be at least a little bit interested in the mountain of extremely strong hints that the PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES was personally involved in CHILD SEX TRAFFICKING
