Megyn Kelly: "I know somebody very close to this case…Jeffrey Epstein, in this person's view, was not a pedophile…He was into the barely legal type, like he liked 15 year old girls…He wasn't into like 8 year olds…There's a difference between a 15 year old and a 5 year old."

The right-wing backlash against #Superman this week got me thinking: Has this happened before?

That led to the discovery of these headline — from April 1940, when the official newspaper of the SS took umbrage at the comic book hero and ridiculed its creators.

Noem is incompetent, lying, and over budget by $1B. She is funding ICE with FEMA $, while abandoning citizens in distress. She is not cost cutting, she's over spending. She prefers terror over disaster response. Texans can get fucked so long as she can fight a race war.
