Given how much political discourse over the past few days has been dominated by parsing emails in order to better speculate about the depraved sexual inclinations of financial and political elites, I have to admit that Pizzagaters won culturally, even if they were wrong in the specifics.

Roommate flat-out asked me last night, “Are we invading Venezuela?” Fun times in the Fascist States of Amerikkka, let me tell ya. Especially since the only thing that might slow it down is if the President started feuding with a member of his own caucus because she went on The View...oh wait...

The mighty huntress woke us up to make sure we knew she's still got it. "Great, Sylvie," I told her. "I saw a rat four times that size belly crawling out from under the garage door last night, but go off I guess."

If conspiracy theorists didn’t all just become boring Trump partisans, they would have a very strong story here about MAGA and deep state pedophilia, including trying to coach Epstein until it was too late and you had to have him whacked in prison
A deep dive on how Mr. Populism himself, Steve Bannon, was Epstein’s legal and media coach — “devising responses to the gathering storm of public outrage about Epstein’s criminal history.”

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

New: A site licensing Trump's name is selling merch with the presidential seal — including a $20 beer-pong set with “Presidential themed balls.”

I see otherwise sensible people getting lost in the conspiracyballs with Epstein. The ruling class are not chessmasters or Eyes Wide Shut style decadent cultists. They're shambolic, grubby, foolish people, blinded by greed, privilege, and hubris. Same with states and intelligence services.
