Trump does NOT have a mandate to shred our institutions. His margin of victory (pop vote + electoral college) is the third smallest since 1888. (Only JFK in '60 and Nixon in '68 were smaller.) If 238k votes in the blue wall states had been different, he would have lost. 49.8% vs 48.3% NOT a mandate.

Not true. Elon is in there.

And Melania.
Zero “illegal criminal aliens” in the Epstein files so far.

Just billionaires.
Royals.
CEOs.
Politicians.

Funny how that works.

Murphy on Fox News Sunday: "I mean -- c'mon. We're still pretending that ICE is going after dangerous people? They aren't. What is happening in Minnesota right now is a dystopia. ICE is teargassing elementary schools, it is disappearing legal residents into cars, it is murdering American citizens."

In 1987 Trump went to Russia. 1987 was also the same year that Epstein just happened to come into Trump's life. Coincidence?

In the latest Epstein files, an Epstein employee told the FBI that Epstein introduced Trump to Melania in 1998.

Soviets were grooming Trump as an asset since at least 1986

Trump's assistance to the Russian attack on Ukrainian power and heating last night was so egregious that I put together this short, free piece on it. He helped Putin kill Ukrainians. If the USA does not do something soon, the US should be seen as a Putin ally. open.substack.com/pub/phillips...

A multimillionaire thinks that paying down the national debt is so important that all the poors should get into the workforce earlier, work in it harder, and stay in it later to help pay it off.

It's the only possible way to do it!
Dr Oz: "If we could get the average American to start working a year earlier, right out of high school, or a year later -- not retire -- or work better during their lifetime because they're healthy, it would generate about $3 trillion to the US economy. That would more than remove the debt."

The photos from a UN fact finding mission to northern Gaza which were part of a diplomatic cable suppressed by the US Ambassador to Israel, Jack Lew, have been released by Drop Site News. These are the genocidal conditions in Gaza that Lew specifically tried to hide from the White House and public.
Look at the photos. The thing I heard often working on the USAID Gaza response from our partners in Gaza was the field of dead bodies - men, women, children - that fanned out around IDF checkpoints in the Netzarim corridor. Shot by IDF soldiers for no reason (unless "for fun" counts as a reason).

The U.S. embassy in Jerusalem suppressed a February 2024 report on northern Gaza because it “lacked balance.” These photos from the UN fact finding trip are visual evidence of the conditions.

This article has some good info but ignores Ghislaine Maxwell, who is as key as Epstein. She was the daughter of Robert Maxwell, an Israeli spy and Russian mafia operative. Maxwell got key mafiosos out of the USSR by providing them Israeli passports. This allowed them to build a global network (1)
I read thousands of pages of Epstein files this weekend trying to understand what he wanted out of his meeting with 4chan's Christopher Poole. Here's everything we know about Epstein's plans to dismantle the internet and, eventually, democracy.

💯💯- “That’s what the Epstein Files are: shit. Unredacted to antagonize the victims; redacted to protect the perpetrators; released in a slow drip to acclimatize people to horror; released in an enormous drop to overwhelm people with fear.”

Ew. Is this the same Bannon that's in the Epstein files? It's weird that child predators get their own special army!

And Bannon and his patron Robert Miller helped make it happen with their military grade disinformation campaign via Cambridge Analytica. The UK government NOT thoroughly investigating and prosecuting this op is the crime of the century.

Mandelson was hired as a 'it takes a theif to catch a theif' strategy. Labour needed an economic 'win' against a deranged Trump. Mandelson was always a risky bet. But what is interesting in the files, is that clearly Epstein, Theil, Bannon & Putin were linked, all salivating over Brexit #newsnight
