"Some voters are sickened to see Trump's name showing up in the Epstein files. But here at the Midwestern Pedophile Association's annual conference in Des Moines, few find it alarming, and some even say they finally feel 'seen.'"

Great 🧵here from @sethabramson.bsky.social on the context needed in any coverage of the trump/Epstein saga.
(🧵) This thread from a retired journalism professor who helped usher in the era of metajournalism in the 2010s—and has written a book on the relationship between Trump and Epstein as part of his NYT-bestselling Proof Series—explains how to report properly on the Trump-Epstein Scandal.

I just called and left messages for Arizona Senators Kelly (D) and Gallego (D) telling them that if they cave without a guarantee of ACA subsidies they are going to lose their entire base in one fell swoop.

Psst! Hey, Senate Dems, now would be a great time to demand concessions from GOP leadership.
Don’t end the shutdown unless they fully fund ACA, reverse the shutdown firings, undo some of the DOGE cuts, and have a vote to release the Epstein files.
You have leverage after last night. Use it.

Is it just me, or is Mike Little Johnson finding it harder and harder to round up sycophants to stand behind him while he claims to not know of something the press has just asked him about, and then lies on top of that?
