Remember that Nimarata Nikki Randhawa ran as Nikki Haley

Piyush Jindal ran as Bobby Jindal

Raphael Cruz ran as Ted Cruz

Meanwhile—Barack Obama ran as Barack Obama and Zohran Mamdani ran as Zohran Mamdani, and MAGAs accuse Dems of identity politics

Every MAGA accusation is a confession

The next time someone tells you that America isn’t a sick & racist country, just remind them that this nation is willing to accept treason, rape, and child abuse from a white president but not healthcare from a Black one.

It’s as if these old racists are incapable of making a point in any discussion on any subject without insulting black or brown people.
Sen. Kennedy on releasing all of the Epstein files: “I just don't think this issue is going to go away until that issue is addressed and answered to the American people's satisfaction. And I may end up with a sombrero on my head for saying that, but that's the way I see it.”

There are four leaks to plug for Trump: the survivors, Ghislaine Maxwell, the Epstein Estate, and the 1000+ FBI and DoJ employees he locked in a building and forced to remove his name from the files.

Good luck, asshole.

At the same time the NY Times was hyping Hillary Clinton's emails, it had a reporter with emails from Jeffrey Epstein that were highly damaging to Trump.

The more NYT apologists try to minimize this the clearer it becomes that they don't understand why much of the public doesn't trust legacy media.

It’s obvious now and everyone knows it. Trump is associated with Epstein and protecting Ghislane Maxwell to protect himself. Every Republican now has a choice, pick a side. No middle ground. Support or oppose trafficking

I’m a simple person. I wake up and have coffee, do the NYT crossword, wordle, connections and spelling bee. I could do these games on other sites but I like the NYT because of their font style and how they use my subscription to pay journalists who protect trump from being outed as a pedophile
To recap: Jeffrey Epstein offered a NY Times reporter photos taken in Epstein's kitchen of Donald Trump and girls in bikinis *and* implored the NYT reporter to put this information in the public discourse in 2015

What did the NY Times editors know about this offer?

Something that’s so striking in these emails is how…unimpressive Epstein is. He comes off as a pompous, sub-literate lech. Yes everyone is so mortifyingly solicitous of him! All fawning and flattery! Why?????

I don't think legacy media is reading the room correctly on the Epstein Files. Many of us are asking why they have ignored this story for the last decade? Why did they dismiss all of us who were concerned that Trump might be compromised? And where is their fucking contrition and apology now?

As a reporter, I have covered over 750 investigations. (2010-2025 on inside Edition/CBS News) Many of my stories involved sexual assault. I have never seen “innocent people” do anything remotely close to this.
In your experience, would innocent people go to these lengths to keep something secret? I pretty much know the answer but I would like to ask a professional

All of the times I’ve wondered what Putin had on Trump, and now we find out Jeffrey Epstein was talking to Putin’s ambassador about Trump.
Jeffrey Epstein claimed he gave Russians insight into Trump
Newly released emails show the late convicted sex offender’s extensive network of foreign contacts, whom he corresponded with about Trump’s policy decisions.

I guess it would look especially bad if Trump had, say, spent decades cultivating ties to sleazy tabloid journalists and gossip columnists. Trading various favors including exclusive access in exchange for killing stories about his sexual exploits. Maybe culminating in 34 felony convictions...

This headline is journalistic malpractice. This isn't Epstein "alleging" that Trump knew. This is Epstein and Maxwell discussing - in 2011, long before Trump had political salience - how the FACT that Trump knew might play out

Both of them took as a given that this was a fact in a private email

Ellison is also slated to be the new co-owner of TikTok alongside...Rupert Murdoch
Under new head of Paramount David Ellison, the studio has drawn up a list of actors who opposed the Gaza genocide and will not allow them to appear in its films and TV shows.

Does this sound familiar?

Also, "Ellison is reportedly aiming to take over Warner Bros. next."
