For real knowledge about these times I highly recommend “Iron Curtain” by @anneapplebaum.bsky.social. Suggested by @davetroy.com (thank you), this fills in major gaps in my knowledge, & I’ve got family who lived it. Knowledge is power. Take a break from the fascists’ shiny objects; read / listen:

Yes, knowing about Epstein’s child sex trafficking and turning a blind eye makes people accountable. Trump “truthed” this morning that Epstein was a Democrat, so this is Dem problem that will take down Bill Clinton and Larry Summers. Fine. Anyone involved in any way should face consequences, period.
Trump is demanding that GOP side with him over Epstein's victims, Rep Ansari tells me. She had a harrowing exchange with one victim who recounts how her mom had cancer and he exploited that.
Also note her mockery of network disclaimers on Trump. More like this, Ds:

This isn’t good news IMO. When Willis was disqualified from prosecuting fraudulent elector Burt Jones because she hosted a fundraiser for his opponent, Skandalakis took that case for himself and disappeared it. I imagine he’ll do the same here.
BREAKING: Pete Skandalakis, executive director of the Prosecuting Attorneys’ Council of Georgia, has appointed himself to prosecute the case against Trump and others in Fulton County.
The move follows a court ruling that disqualified Fani Willis from pursuing the case.

Biden didn’t release the Epstein files because Merrick Garland was actively investigating Epstein/Maxwell co-conspirators all the way up until January 2025. Then Trump shuttered the probe. www.cbsnews.com/news/jeffrey...
House Democrats press DOJ for details on Epstein co-conspirators probe that was "inexplicably killed"
Survivors of Jeffrey Epstein provided the Justice Department with "precise and detailed" information about 20 alleged co-conspirators, House Democrats say.

So now as many as ONE HUNDRED! House Republicans are going to vote to release the Epstein files after doing everything they could for months to block release by refusing to sign the discharge petition. What are they going to say now, that they ALWAYS wanted it released?

Senate Republicans don’t want to bring in Jack Smith to testify before the American people to ask him why he subpoenaed limited phone data on 8 co-conspirators to overturn the election, they just want a quick $1 million check from the taxpayers instead.

A reminder that in 2022, President Biden signed the “Eliminating Limits to Justice for Child Sex Abuse Victims Act,” eliminating the statute of limitations to file civil action for federal sex offenses. Seems relevant.
