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.
Uh oh. Howard Lutnick & Epstein were IN BUSINESS TOGETHER as recently as 2014. Lying Lutnick caught again.

Yet ANOTHER revelation of the Lutnick-Epstein friendship.

(Lying Lutnick said he met Epstein once in 2005 and never had contact with him again.)

Lutnick and Epstein were in business together, Epstein files show
Though the commerce secretary has called his interactions with Epstein as "limited," the two were in business together four years after Epstein's 2008 guilty plea.

The “Epstein Class”
Ossoff: We were told that MAGA was for working-class Americans. But this is a government of, by, and for the ultra-rich. It’s the wealthiest Cabinet ever. This is the Epstein class. They are the elites they pretend to hate.

If you need yet another reason to leave Amazon, besides punishing Bezos, you're being scammed by Amazon labeling a product "Amazon's Choice" or "Overall Pick". It's not based on product quality but rather how much the seller gives to Amazon.

Video: Opinion | Amazon’s ‘Top Choice Is the Worst Choice’
What does Amazon’s top choice product designation really mean? The authors Cory Doctorow and Tim Wu describe how the ranking is not based on quality but on the extraction of our attention and money.

Noem/Miller/Trump thugs still violently overreaching in Minneapolis. And if this was a legit arrest (doubtful), why does it take 18 pussies on the federal payroll to execute it? No more funds for DHS. Defund ICE.
After 6am this morning in Whittier, Minneapolis—FOUR BLOCKS from where Pretti was murdered.

18 agents with Homeland Security Investigations (HSI) markings smashed an apartment window, ran in, and came out with one man.

“We almost didn’t make it,” her coach said.

What’s great about JD Vance is that unlike Miller, he doesn’t *want* to be hated. You can tell it eats at him that he is the object of universal scorn—that yet again he has given up everything in search of love, and found only contempt. This is what he deserves.
