RFK Jr. still uses psychedelics, & even smoked DMT, a powerful drug on which people are known to have what feel like near-death experiences, he told Olivia Nuzzi.
That’s just one of the revelations in her forthcoming book “American Canto.”

Do political science profs have to explain to their students that, for most of American history, it was actually borderline unthinkable that elected officials and their spokespersons would constantly talk like trashy reality show contestants?
After calling Schumer a "Palestinian," Leavitt refers to "Gavin Newscum." So she's just ripping off her boss's smears now.

Hayes: It’s weird that everyone just stopped applying those two things to the situation we’re in now, where they elected who also is on an accelerated aging schedule. I mean, his nickname for Joe Biden was “Sleepy Joe.” He literally fell asleep at a White House event the other day.

One of the more upsetting things in this is that he wasn't blackmailing them: These men were part of this and protecting him not out of obligation or even particularly out of access, but out of solidarity.
Lots of people say: that’s because he’s blackmailing them, but I don’t think he’s blackmailing Kathy Ruemmler! I don’t think that’s what explains it.

"don't worry, he's just into 15-year-olds" perhaps not as exculpatory as you think
Also 15-year-olds are not "barely legal." They are minors.

Megyn Kelly: "I know somebody very close to this case…Jeffrey Epstein, in this person's view, was not a pedophile…He was into the barely legal type, like he liked 15 year old girls…He wasn't into like 8 year olds…There's a difference between a 15 year old and a 5 year old."

You probably saw videos of a nighttime raid in Chicago. Agents rappelling from a helicopter, bursting down doors, questioning brown-skinned immigrants.
