Not only has Fox News not mentioned Epstein's bombshell email that Trump “knew about the girls" once on the air today, the word "Epstein" does not even appear on the homepages of Fox News, Breitbart, The Daily Wire, OAN, Gateway Pundit or The Federalist today. Total coverage blackout

DAE remember last November after Trump won, when the whole discourse among government employees was “how do we secure records to keep the incoming Trump people from destroying or altering them?”

Just thought of that. No reason.

NEW: 2020 footage said to be in 2025. A neighbor who keeps reappearing in the same clip, said to be on different days & months. A broadcast from elsewhere suggested as Portland.

How Fox News misled its viewership -- which may have included the president.

“Each day of the funding lapse was an exercise in frustration — one step forward, two steps back — as talks sputtered, tempers flared, expectations rose, deals fell apart and the nation’s longest shutdown dragged on.”

When I worked in WaPo Opinions in 2017-2018, senior editors specifically told junior editors not to factcheck Marc Thiessen and other MAGA columnists, otherwise they wouldn’t be able to publish anything by them at all, and “we need them for intellectual diversity.”
It’s very telling that opening your publication to MAGA “thought” requires a massive downgrade in quality control.

If you’d like to find another place for the piece I would be interested in it for Dissent. You could write a preface describing this experience. Not the same reach as Time but do let me know if you’re interested!

Philly! Please vote tomorrow.
It’s one of those big ballots and many boxes are yes/no, not just GOP or DNC. Here are some links to help you navigate it. Very important to vote YES to retain all three PA Supreme Court judges, as shown below:

Here is DHS making false allegations about @katmabu.bsky.social.

Read the affidavit and show me where it alleges that she assaulted anyone.

Spoiler: it doesn't.

The conspiracy charge / title of the statute is throwing people off / leading to a lot of bad faith attacks.

Donald Trump deleted this from the government website.

Let's be clear: there's funding available to cover SNAP benefits next month. Trump is stopping SNAP benefits because he wants to. He is forcing mommas and babies to go hungry.

This video from Portland is a metaphor for what is going on in America. ICE trying so hard to get Americans to cross a line and if they don't, dragging them across the line and violently attacking.
