So…who killed Epstein? Given that absolutely everyone had a motive.

Raskin: "The DOJ hasn't released any of these emails that mention Trump's name & identify his role in all these activities. Those came from the Epstein estate. So this is a demonstration the govt is deliberately withholding the info everybody is actually looking for & could be damaging to Trump"

The pundit and political class tended to downplay the Epstein Files because they believed it too salacious and not serious enough to drive government policy and decision-making. Except, they are doing just that. Dismissing the importance of the Files ignores who Trump is and who he has always been.

There were crimes. There was a massive, coordinated coverup. The president must resign.

"Musk’s method has always been: make grand, unsubstantiated claims about what’s coming in the nearish future, trusting in his faithful followers to make the claims sound believable; fundraise off the excitement the claims generate; & when the claims fail to come true, replace them with new claims"

Did Tesla just make Musk the world’s first trillionaire? Almost certainly not. But that’s not what his colossal new deal is really about.

He’s Acting Pretty Damn Guilty
Trump usually acts like a guy with something to hide. But his Epstein behavior is on another level.

Very interesting House primary in Nebraska, in a seat won by Biden and Harris where the incumbent Republican is stepping down.
The "progressive" candidate comes from a legacy establishment family.
The "outsider" candidate is seeking moderate PAC money.

The discharge petition to force a vote on the Epstein Files only received a handful of GOP votes.

But when we get the actual vote to release them, I'm presuming we'll see a whole lot more, right?

"Congressman _____ voted against releasing the Epstein Files" isn't an ad you want before the midterms

One thing I haven’t seen the “Democrats need to move to the right” camp of the Democratic elite reckon with is the complete and utter failure of Keir Starmer’s drastic move to the right on immigration. He has failed to halt Nigel Farage’s rise in polls

Mandatory comparison. Note, it was a choice to not include a four column wide photo of Trump looking like shit in his only press appearance yesterday when he refused to answer questions about Epstein.

America is not full. But an array of right-wing activists and commentators want to deport tens of millions of people.

For them, it’s not just about illegal immigration but the idea that not everyone can really become an American.
