So the Epstein files dump

1. Protected a lot of predictors

2. Created another partisan food fight.

3. Failed to create any obvious pathway for these women to get accountability.

4. Included a number of clearly unverified claims that can be used to undermine the very legit emails

a party that had spent the last few years defending trans people by pointing out how weird it was republicans were obsessed with your kids genitals would probably look really smart and trustworthy and less perverted than the other party right now

@normeisen.bsky.social: Trump has lost over 200 times in court so far. We’ve never seen anything like it.

I know Don Lemon well. He’s a fighter for the First Amendment, and he’s going to win.

When Trump testified in deposition on his NY fraud case, he estimated his net worth at $3.2B, which was wildly inflated. That was after a lifetime in business. Trump has now made $4.05B just in the past year - most of it from foreign entities. archive.ph/2026.01.31-1...

Nicholas Christakis is yet another person who's talked about the dangers of trans rights for the youth who just happens to be in cahoots with a transnational child abuse ring
I guess the best-available defense to this sort of thing—lots of friendly emails and visits with someone recently convicted of procuring a child for the purposes of prostitution, I mean—is something like “He seemed to have lots of money and connections and I would have liked a little piece of that”

Ellison on Trump: "That sounds like a petty child who will not tolerate any challenge to his massive and highly delicate ego. As he's wearing his fancy tuxedo going to whatever fancy ball he's going to, Minnesotans are standing in the 9 below weather fighting for our very democracy and lives."

We finally know what happened to DOJ's (frivolous) misconduct complaint against Chief Judge Boasberg:

It was transferred by Chief Justice Roberts from the D.C. Circuit to Sixth Circuit Chief Judge Jeff Sutton, and Sutton dismissed it in a ... direct ... memorandum and order just two weeks later:

I've seen videos of the indiscriminate use of tear gas on a large crowd that was clearly peaceful and filled with Portlanders of all ages, and well off the macadam facility. We banned tear gas for a reason. I join Councilor Green in calling for enforcement of our laws.
I just got tear gassed along with thousands of union members, many of whom had their families with them. Federal agents at the ICE facility tear gassed children. We must abolish ICE, DHS, and we must have prosecutions. I expect to see enforcement of our city code prohibiting the use of tear gas.

This is why Democrats need to compete EVERYWHERE.

We won’t win every race, but it’s stupid and irresponsible to simply forfeit certain races to incumbents. Always but especially now, we need competitive elections. And at the bare minimum, make them spend money defending seats they had won by 17 pts
JUST IN: Democrats flip a red seat in the Texas Senate.

Taylor Rehmet wins against Leigh Wambsganss, a conservative activist who helped lead right-wing efforts to take over TX school boards.

With all early vote, and 95% of precincts, in, Dem up 57/43.

Trump won this seat by 17% in Tarrant County.

Former Texas Lege reporter here. A Dem hasn't held this seat since 1990. Tarrant is the safest of red suburban counties. There is no way the TX and national GOP aren't in panic mode right now.

So, this is the Speaker of the House a) raising doubts about legitimate election outcomes, b) presenting legal voting processes (mail-in ballots) as illegal, and c) endorsing Trump's practice of focusing only on Dem majority voting sites.
He is on board with Trump's plans to control the midterms.
WELKER: What do you say to the allegation Trump is going to meddle in midterms & that's what he's doing in GA?

JOHNSON: I find it comical a senator from GA is talking about schemes. GA was example A of that

Incumbents will be tempted to lay low, make minimal promises and coast in complacently. They need to be pushed -- primary challengers and town halls, etc.

Get promises of action now so they hit the ground running when they retake Congress. Stake out a clear agenda, win a strong mandate, get moving.
the thing is, the way it looks right now democrats are going to do really well even by default. dont have to go on record promising anything, dont need to be bold, dont need to put themselves out there and theyll probably get control

thats just not good enough

Republicans redistricted to win five new seats in Texas. All five are projected to be between R+4 and R+8. To achieve this, they diluted their advantage in other districts.

A 15-point swing in November wipes out Republican control of the state. A 30-point swing erases Republicans in Texas entirely.
Thirty point swing to Democrats deep in the heart of Texas.
Hard to overstate how big a deal a Rehmet win would be. Tarrant County is the epicenter of Christian nationalism in Texas, an incubator for far-right policies, and nexus of billionaire Tim Dunn's network, which is riding hard for Wambsganss. Rehmet almost entirely funded by donations of $100 or less

It's not that the truth doesn't matter to them. It's that the lies are essential to their survival.
Karoline Leavitt lies shamelessly: "Under Joe Biden, murders were up. Violent crime was up." (Biden brought crime dramatically down from where it was in 2020, the last year of Trump's first term)

DHS doesn’t even bother trying to lie well. The man whose skull was shattered told the hospital he’d been struck by ICE officers, an ICE officer told hospital staff the guy “got his sh*t rocked,” then when it became clear how badly he was injured, they claimed he deliberately ran into a wall.

I wonder if the New York Times will go after any of the prominent academics in the Epstein files for being rapists as hard as they went after Claudine Gay for being kind of sloppy with citations in her graduate thesis.

If not, why not?

What I’m seeing here is that Epstein is a nexus point for the “intellectual” cabal that shores up the race science justifying our current immigration and anti-DEI policies (Huberman), as well the tone policing moderates (Brooks) that hamstrings oppositions. Oh and their billionaire benefactors.
