When Epstein died, is it likely that no new entrepreneur stepped in, to satisfy the continuing demand of rich pedophiles? I think not.
Another reason why these bastards need to be prosecuted: this isn't just something that happened in the past.

Maybe it's just me, but it seems that a justice system that depends for its ability to function on the party in power is fatally flawed.
An independent judiciary can't depend on political patronage, or it's just...well, exactly what it is now.

Your regular reminder that tech billionaires want us all dead. It's not a byproduct of their dreams, its the fulfillment of them.
They see machine intelligence as the next step in human evolution, one that inevitably leads to the extinction of biological humans.

Political violence has no place in our democracy. @gabbygiffords.bsky.social is a hero who makes our communities safer. Since the Tucson shooting 15 years ago, where six people were killed and Gabby and many others were injured, she has fought hard to make sure gun violence has no place in America.
Today marks 15 years since a gunman tried to assassinate me. He shot 19 people and killed six.
I almost died, and think of those who did every day.

Let's remember that VEN and Cuba have been close for decades. Cheap VEN oil has kept Cuba afloat. Controlling VEN oil will let the US destabilize Cuba. Two regime-changes for the price of one, and political gold for Cuban-exile darling Lil Marco.

I'm homebound and nearly died from COVID last year. I've been trying to get in-home vaccination, but the program seems to have shut down without notice.
The website is still up, but the phone number is always busy and emails bounce back.

I just learned they're making a movie of Cormac McCarthy's "Blood Meridian."
Can't wait to watch it in a double feature with "The Road"...and then kill myself.
