Remember when the Panama Papers told us all of this Epstein stuff a decade ago?
Take the offshore banking and dark money revealed in the PP, combine them with the available unredacted EF, and you get a much clearer picture of the whole situation.
There's a reason journalists keep turning up dead.

I've never made any suggestions for a course of action white people could take not to be racist that was actually too hard for them to humanly manage or unreasonable here. The only reason they don't choose them is they have more fun being racist.

What's more likely? Trans people becoming mass shooters for the first time in recorded history or white nationalists training martyrs to redirect attention to the manufactured "trans threat?"
These shooters are radicalized and trained. They have orders. They are not trans.

Accusations that Epstein was a cannibal shouldn't be surprising since the English ate all the mummies.
Y'all already forget about Armie Hammer?
Robert Downey Jr. paid for Hammer to escape to his private island which is near Epstein's island.
This is white supremacy.
Always has been.

Unpopular Opinion: Educators who use GenAI to grade, act as a "TA," or create course materials should not be the Instructor of Record. Fascists say teachers are unnecessary and these folks provide a perfect example of our supposed redundancy in the Tech Age.

Y'all don't treat Seminole this way, but they aren't "real" according to this arbitrary criteria. Seminole are a combo of half a dozen tribes & formerly-enslaved Africans.
I need Natives who aren't from the SE to stop acting like we're all the same. That's colonizer thinking.

Doesn't matter, it's social media, and the fact that you see no problem with allowing frauds who no nations know at all to be federally recognized is very troubling to say the least

For more than 100 years, Utah ranchers grazed without paying and other states let the cattle barons literally roam free. When their leases weren't renewed, Trump promised he'd take care of them in exchange for support.
