Important to understand the Epstein stuff and the fascism and the corruption are, in a lot of ways, really all the same story from different angles: powerful men who can and do abuse vulnerable people around them because they can, and because systems of elite accountability catastrophically failed

True villains understand making others complicit is far more effective than defeating them
The older I get, the more I realize that modern society functions essentially as a giant pyramid scheme of people mutually blackmailing each other into enabling and covering up the worst of human abuses, from genocide to child trafficking.

I understand why we shut down American airspace for a few days after 9-11 to avoid a repeat attack but imagine shutting down American airspace to avoid releasing the Epstein files.

"Just following orders" is not, and cannot be, a defense.
Abolishing ICE is the moderate position. What we need is prosecutions and long prison terms at every level of the agency.
“They didn’t just walk in chasing one person, they went into multiple rooms asking and looking for teachers while children were present,” Ramirez said. “This is an agency that has gone rogue and it an agency that believes that as long as they can cover their face, they can get away with anything.”

So Trump says he knows nothing about the pardon he issued for a billionaire who just so happened to make his family a fortune in crypto.
This clip is going viral for a reason.
Don’t underestimate a struggling American public’s slowly building intolerance for this kind of blatant corruption.

O'DONNELL: Why did you pardon Changpeng Zhao?
TRUMP: Are you ready? I don't know who he is
O'DONNELL: His crypto exchange Binance helped facilitate a $2b purchase of World Liberty Financial's stablecoin. And they you pardoned him.

Looks as if Trump is saying no Democrat will be allowed to win another national election—and he will use the FBI, the DOJ, and the CIA to make sure of that. This is a full-scale attack on American democracy, and every Republican, CEO, and conservative mouthpiece who doesn't object is complicit.
Trump: "We can never let what happened in the 2020 election happen again. We just can't let that happen. I know Kash is working on it, everybody is working on it. And certainly Tulsi is working on it. We can't let that happen again to our country."

Reminder that support for war crimes on TV was Hegseth's only qualification for the job; it's the only reason Trump knew he existed.
Secretary of War Crimes is the job he was auditioning for during his career as a drunken talking head on Fox.
