It's beyond disgusting that Megyn Kelly is floating the "she was 15 years old, not 8!" defense for Jeffrey Epstein (and possibly Trump). Congrats, MAGA- you're officially pedophile protectors now. Can Megyn Kelly get cancelled again? Please?!? JFC.

This is far worse than anyone expected.
Trump's HUD plan would cut *two-thirds* of permanent housing and push as many as 170,000 formerly homeless people back onto the street—redirecting funds to work mandates, forced treatment, and encampment sweeps.
All as mass internment camps are being built.

So the discharge petition now moves to the Senate, where it will need a veto-proof majority of 67 votes to force the release of the Epstein Files. Do Senate Republicans really want to head into the midterms going on the record defending a President who protected pedophiles? (Yes. Yes, they do.)

It's been 10 years since Gamergate & we're still dealing with the fallout.
I wrote a piece a few weeks ago claiming antisemitism was on the verge of going mainstream. It was clear to me that most people had trouble buying it.
That's understandable. But it's happening.
Example: Conservatives themselves are now saying that 30 to 40% of Zoomers in Washington are Groypers.
