If **Jeffrey Epstein** thinks you're a evil and demented sociopath, the odds are overwhelming that you are, in fact, an evil and demented sociopath.

You still want to believe the political fuel that powers the American collapse into authoritarianism isn't the deep, abiding resentment of white men who pine for an America that sees and services only them? Gaze upon Leni Riefenstahl's recent work for Donald Trump's U.S. Department of Labor.

Moskowitz: We need $30 billion to extend, obviously, these healthcare subsidies, which allow Americans—Americans, not illegal—Americans, citizens, to afford healthcare.
And the president’s like, “We don’t have $30 billion, but I am going to send $40 billion to my dear friend in Argentina.”

So Trump/Putin meeting lasted only 12 minutes! With translators, that means they each spoke for three minutes, right? I speak longer than that to the cashier at the supermarket.

It’s wild how many people think Medicaid cuts won’t affect them because their state calls it something like “Healthy Louisiana”. I don’t even care about right or left right now, this level of civic illiteracy is why it’s so easy to pass bills that hurt everyone.

This is a United States Senator mocking the assassination of a Minnesota legislator and her husband. He pretends to be a good Mormon. He’s a sick fuck.

An outspoken vaccine conspiracy theorist just fired every last member of CDC's vaccine advisory committee.
RFK Jr. is paving the way to reshape vaccine policy based not on decades of science, but on his own unhinged fanaticism.
This is unprecedented, and unthinkably dangerous.

Trump signed an executive order letting educators physically discipline kids—and this school principal’s response is perfect:
“No. We’re not going to be doing that. It feels like a set up.”

Harvard has set an example for other higher-ed institutions - rejecting an unlawful and ham-handed attempt to stifle academic freedom, while taking steps to make sure students can benefit from an environment of intellectual inquiry, rigorous debate and mutual respect. Let’s hope others follow suit.
