This is my favorite version of the AI push — we don’t have any real ideas for how you should use it, but it’s not going anywhere, so you had better figure out a use for it and then start using it quick!

Uh, no. I don’t think I will.
Figure out how to use it. Ostrich mode will help no one.

Todd Blanche is USING survivors to protect Trump and it’s DISGUSTING. Can we please yeet this monster into the sun?
WELKER: Why didn't the DOJ meet the Friday deadline to release all the Epstein files?

BLANCHE: It's very simple and very clear. The statute also requires us to protect victims.

She's not as flashy a disaster as Hegseth, Kennedy, Bondi, or Patel— she's managed to keep a surprisingly low profile— but I can't even imagine how much damage Gabbard is quietly doing.

An immigrant works a dangerous job to protect Americans. It puts him in medical debt. Now he also has to worry about being deported by ICE when he goes to work or takes his kid to a soccer tournament.

He's a serial liar. Almost every answer he's given today is clearly a lie. One of the most reprehensible of a terrible, terrible set of people - catering to the whims of a corrupt, felonious, traitorous madman.
WELKER: Trump urged Bondi to prosecute Comey in a social media post that was supposed to be private. He was indicted days later. Does Trump speak to you or the AG about cases?

BLANCHE: We were already investigating. So Comey being indicted is not a reflection of what the president put in that Truth

This is part of what I mean by “slow civil war.” It’s not coming, it’s here, and there are mounting casualties.
Even in Illinois — a "safe haven" where many have fled as persecution against trans people ramps up in other states — 29 trans teens have died by suicide this year as of Nov. 21, according to a count by Trans Up Front Illinois.

That’s compared to 4 last year, and 6 the year before that.

Any reporter talking to Blanche or Bondi should fixate on: "Your redactions indicate that there were crimes and victims. How many predators have you positively identified from the documents and what is the state of the resulting investigations? When can the victims expect to see prosecutions?"

On MSNOW last night I repeated more than once that unemployment is up 15 PERCENT under Trump. Yes that is correct. It went from 4.0% in Jan to 4.6%. As I joked: I even checked it with Chat GPT and Gemini! But people are hurting and what is Trump focused on? Renaming Kennedy Center and his ballroom!

American conservatives and other types of fascist have no desire to return to the days of skillful liars.

A person living by a lie told skillfully may have been fooled by the skill.

But to force a person to live according to an obvious lie means you have dominated them.

Epstein redactions aren't believable, and they are valuable to fascists specifically because they aren't believable.

Fascists prefer lies to truth. Believing in a lie is preferable to believing a truth, if what you want is to dominate.

Believing lies dominates truth. So they believe lies.

So both Donald Trump and Jeffrey Epstein are considered victims?

That tracks with white male privilege and all, but I'm not buying it.

One thing worth remembering as all of this Epstein stuff roils is that we know of multiple occasions in which women were paid to keep them from talking about having sex with Trump.
WELKER: Why was this photo of a desk with a drawer open containing photos of Trump taken down?

BLANCHE: You can see in that photo there are photos of women. We learned there were concerns about them.

W: Are you saying those women are victims of Epstein?

B: No, that's not what I'm saying.
