Trump's "permanently pause" is a koan, meant for us to meditate upon to achieve enlightenment. Reminds me of this scene from Raising Arizona. "Everybody freeze. Everybody down on the ground.":

I'm not a handwriting expert...fuck that, you don't need to be a handwriting expert. This is clearly his big dumbass signature on the photo (provided by the Epstein estate) that Democrats on the oversight committee just posted to social media.

Fantastic summary of the massive, multi-week smokescreen to avoid accountability and protect the president from the Epstein scandal. Also nice, quick silencing of Nigel Farage.
House Judiciary Republicans have held no hearings about the DOJ’s handling of the Epstein files, and today, they’re again leaving DC without getting answers.

They don’t have any questions about it?

I trust the FBI will also be rounding up the GOP Representatives that fled the Capitol to avoid voting on releasing the Epstein files. I hear Rep. Johnson is in Israel, so he might need to be extradited.

This seems somewhat troubling. Hard to imagine a more dystopia-driving company than Palantir and so not sure I'd like them aggregating all that is known about me and packaging it all up for Dear Leader to peruse.

Lincoln is the Great Emancipator. Roosevelt helped liberate Europe from the Nazis. But those efforts pale when weighed against Trump's achievement: "We've liberated our troops from divisive and demeaning political trainings," Trump told the 1,002 cadets graduating from West Point.
