📣 NEW RANT: There are two classes of people in this country—the Epstein class, and everybody else. I’m done fighting old wars. It’s time we come together to take down the people abusing kids, protecting each other, and robbing 80% of Americans blind.

That is the operative question. How did she know that she'd face no legal jeopardy from speaking to the personal attorney of Donald Trump, but then perceived legal jeopardy in speaking to Congress? Also, she pleaded the fifth despite telling Blanche she never committed any crime.

This isn't journalism. It's PR.* The board has nothing to do with peace, and the rebuilding that Trump has in mind will primarily benefit him, his cronies, and Israel. To take propaganda at face value is to not do your job.

Ten countries have launched investigations related to the released Epstein files.
Norway, UK, France, Lithuania, Latvia, Sweden, Australia, North Macedinia, Turkey, Poland.
Conspicuously absent is the United States, the epicenter of this scandal.
We know why.

No joke: I got angry hate mail today for writing an obituary of a Black woman scientist—because the person felt she did didn’t deserve the recognition.
Which just makes me want to share it again: www.nature.com/articles/d41...

Already at least $1.4B richer since taking office, Trump is now suing the IRS for a jaw-dropping $10B over the leak of his tax returns.
As he exploits the presidency for self-enrichment and retribution, millions are still struggling with the soaring cost of living.

Masking is not about doxing. That is the excuse. They are wearing masks so people cannot identify agents who engage in abuses, civil rights violations, and crimes. You can’t report someone or hold them accountable in any way if you can’t identify them.
