I don't think legacy media is reading the room correctly on the Epstein Files. Many of us are asking why they have ignored this story for the last decade? Why did they dismiss all of us who were concerned that Trump might be compromised? And where is their fucking contrition and apology now?

Julie Brown mentioned in her book that she herself was an emancipated minor and had grown up poor - a background that very likely positioned her to value the girls Epstein harmed enough to care about them and believe them.

It is unfortunate that others did not care about or believe them.
Like I dunno, maybe the reason it took a lady to break open the story of all the men protecting the dude trafficking underage girls is because the male journos were all emailing him making jokes about it?

Most Americans are in fact too stupid to fact check
1. Reagan’s speech is real

2. It’s public domain

3. Americans pay the cost of the added 10% tariffs, not Canadians

4. Trump keeps lying because he thinks you’re all too stupid to fact check

5. The average family will pay an extra $4900 this year because his tariffs

For the sake of posterity I thought I'd do a thread on all the epically stupid things Trump has done in recent days.

1) Let them eat ballroom

White House begins demolishing East Wing facade to build Trump’s ballroom
The president had claimed construction of the $250 million ballroom wouldn’t ‘interfere’ with the existing White House structure.

You need to see this…

Just so we’re all clear on the gravity and historical significance of what Trump has done to the East Wing of the People’s House.

Raskin: "It's not lost on anyone that shutting the government down allows them not swear in our new colleague, Ms Grijalva from Arizona, who would be the 218th signature to discharge the Epstein files and to put a vote on that on the House floor."

I'm so angry about the weaponization of government and corporate America capitulation, I just swore on MSNBC. Sorry, but it is how I feel.

Semi-regular reminder that a sane country would have already impeached and removed. But then again a sane country wouldn’t have elected a maniac criminal twice in the first place.

The only politicians to ever call Trump Hitler are Vance and...RFK Jr
Vance once called Trump "America's Hitler."
Vance: "If you want stop political violence, stop telling your supporters that everybody who disagrees with you is a Nazi."

You cannot trust information coming from Kash Patel's FBI. You cannot trust information coming from ICE. You cannot trust information coming the Trump administration. You cannot trust information coming from Republicans.

The Golden State is the epicenter of American innovation and driving national economic growth.

We have no peers — and no other state comes close.

I took Tylenol as needed throughout my pregnancy. I am a doctor. I order Tylenol for pregnant women regularly. Tylenol is safe in pregnancy. RFK Jr is ignoring a huge recent well-done study because he doesn't like the answer it gives. There is no causality between Tylenol and autism.
You have no idea how much I despite these anti-science dipshits for making pregnant women terrified of taking (safe, mild, proven) pain relief.

There is no world in which it is normal for the president to publicly call upon his attorney general to hurry up and prosecute his political foes. It’s like the Watergate tapes but posted on social media. Let’s get a grip on what’s happening here.
