Epstein survivor: “It strikes me as odd that this was a campaign promise of Trump, and he has backpedaled on that...

This is an issue that has been highly politicized when it's not a political issue whatsoever.”

I think we all know why the White House has politicized this.

NEW: @propublica.org investigated the Chicago apartment raid where kids were zip-tied and citizens detained for hours. They find:

- NONE of the arrested were criminally charged
- NO evidence the building was "filled with TdA terrorists."
- ZERO legitimate reason for DHS to rappel from a Blackhawk.

Today is a good day to remember, and to say, that the #MeToo movement was right, and was righteous, and has been vindicated over and over again. There was no overreach. There was no excess. There was no they-went-too-far.

So much work remains to be done.

I profiled the phenomenal Rosamund Pike about playing the #NowYouSeeMe franchise's newest villain, why she's still grieving the end of #TheWheelOfTime, and the roles she's gravitating towards next — although she'll always be interested in more provocative characters:
From Bond Girl to Diamond Queen, Rosamund Pike Still Wants To Provoke You
Rosamund Pike discusses her journey from Bond girl to versatile leading lady, her return to the stage, and saying goodbye to The Wheel of Time.

The Trump administration broke the law yet again, and now a federal judge is ordering the review and release of hundreds of immigrants. No one is above the law.

Hey so “underage girls” are…children. The word you’re looking for is children. They’re not like, women-in-waiting or women-lite or whatever. They’re children. I think some of you are very uncomfortable with what that means for you but it is still true.

When you vote for a guy who’s only ever looked out for himself, don’t act shocked when he forgets about you. Your rent, your grocery bill, your kid’s future, none of it’s on his list.

His priority? Himself. Always was. Always will be. He’ll build his gilded ballroom over your house and then brag .

Removing a monument honoring Black US soldiers has nothing to do with DEI. It’s erasure of history and it’s straight-up racism.

Anecdotally, many of the people I have known, who complained about the me-too movement, turned out to be predators. And thus the pattern repeating on a large scale seems to be incredibly unsurprising.

My takeaway from every new Epstein revelation is that some powerful people victimized many powerless young women, many more knew, some actively enabled it--and we're still being told that MeToo and accountability for sexual violence have gone too far

Something absolutely perfect about Larry Summers riffing about the scourge of woke cancel culture being unfair to predatory men in a friendly email to his pal JEFFREY EPSTEIN.

Here’s the thing about healthcare premiums about to skyrocket: they will never come back down, short of a complete overhaul of our system for universal healthcare. Which clearly won’t happen bc of all the money tied up between health and politics.
