Reup: The blondes from Florida (Halligan and Bondi) have now offered even stupider explanations about the circumstances of Jim Comey's prosecution.

Lindsey the Insurance Lawyer's Story Gets Stupider - emptywheel
Lindsey Halligan now claims that she got at least two indictments out of one grand jury presentment. And Pam Bondi thinks that's cool.

1. A thread by @reidhoffman.bsky.social — the tech entrepreneur/investor and philanthropist — who was named this morning by President Trump as a person the DOJ should investigate with respect to Jeffrey Epstein.
Reid Hoffman (@reidhoffman): “Trump should release all of the Epstein files: every person and every document in the files.” 3:58 PM · Nov 14, 2025 ⸻ Reid Hoffman (@reidhoffman): “I want this complete release because it will bring justice for the victims.” ⸻ Reid Hoffman (@reidhoffman): “I want this complete release because it will show that the calls for baseless investigations of me are nothing more than political persecution and slander. I was never a client of Epstein’s and never had any engagement with him other than fundraising for MIT.” ⸻ Reid Hoffman (@reidhoffman): “The call for an investigation is an obvious ploy to avoid releasing the files. Simply release all the files, and expose the people who had both deep and ongoing relationships with Epstein.” ⸻ Reid Hoffman (@reidhoffman): “I will do everything in my power going forward to advocate for the release of the files, to get justice for Epstein’s victims, and to promote the values of truth our great country was founded on.” ⸻ Reid Hoffman (@reidhoffman): “I refuse to bend the knee to Donald Trump and his slanderous lies.”

You would think that the 8 GOP Senators who are SO OUTRAGED that Jack Smith subpoenaed their phone records that they want $1 million compensation would bring him in to testify IN A PUBLIC HEARING to explain why he did this. But no, they don’t want to do that. I wonder why?

Landon Thomas Jr of the New York Times got told by Jeffrey Epstein that Trump walked into a glass door bc he was so busy staring at girls in Epstein's house and didn't print it. wild that the Times didn't consider that newsworthy.

TRUMP: “You have to bring in talent.”

INGRAHAM: “We have plenty of talent.”

TRUMP: “No, you don’t.”

Wow. Wait til MAGA sees this one. 😕

There’s real irony in this: lawmakers can’t get back to DC to vote to reopen the government because flights are canceled, thanks to the same shutdown they caused.

So gross

Making fun of our neighborhoods and communities is disgusting.

Greg Bovino and his masked agents are not here to make Chicago safer. As children are tear gassed and U.S. citizens detained, they are posing for photo ops and producing reality TV moments. blockclubchicago.org/2025/11/10/b...
Border Patrol Agents Pose At The Bean For Apparent Photo Op
The photo op came after agents tear-gassed a Little Village street and were spotted in the area numerous times. At the Bean, one agent shouted, "Everyone say, 'Little Village!'"
