The Epstein story is still absurd and bad and indicative of a lot of things wrong even if you were to remove every single accusation or evidence thereof of child abuse. The fact that he came out of nowhere and seemingly every elite on the planet was connected to him is bad.

Not just any journalist, she won the goddamn Triple Crown of broadcast journalism (an Emmy, a Peabody, and a Murrow) in 2024 for her reporting on Gaza.

Israel has killed 240+ journalists. People who'd cover a strike that killed their kids and go on to cover the next strike, in the pursuit of convincing the world to act, of the hope of tomorrow being different.

How many more murders will it take for the mainstream media's cowardly fever to break?
BREAKING: Israel Killed Al Jazeera Journalist Anas Al-Sharif
Journalists in Gaza continue to be murdered in record numbers, while Western media outlets and reporters show little or no outrage.

Israel carried out its plan to erase Gaza over the course of 18 months. Now that the plan has clearly fallen into place, the Netanyahu government is openly discussing ethnic cleansing. And still, Israel enjoys complete international impunity.
Exterminating Gaza was always Israel’s plan, but now it’s official

Former Netanyahu defence minister says Israel is engaging in “war crimes” and “ethic cleansing” in Gaza.

So, I guess we should expect him to be blacklisted as an antisemite by Canary Mission and denied entry/detained by the US?

Thanks to everybody who chimed in!
