Trump's Epstien cover-up is the most incompetent cover-up ever.
Here's a better view of the now-deleted photo showing Trump with Epstein and Trump with a group of young girls.

The photo was originally posted as item EFTA00000468 but was later deleted. Now the 'official' list simply jumps from EFTA00000467 to EFTA00000469.

RUNNING MAN (2025) may have been more faithful to the beat-by-beat plot of the book, but as a result of sanding off every single rough edge, it makes it feel as though the Schwarzenegger version actually retained much more of the sleazy, cynical, nihilistic tone of the source material.

Dems backed Trump into a corner where he’s advocating for starving Americans and hemorrhaging support. If they vote to let him off the hook in exchange for nothing it’s a cataclysmic failure. I know people are in pain but insulating Republicans from political consequences is not the answer.

KBJ threaded the needle thanks to CA1’s unfinished business.

-if she denied the admin stay, the full SCOTUS woulda stepped in to override her.
-if she immediately referred the case to the full Court, they coulda dragged feet.
-instead she boxed them in to act quickly once she does refer the case.

The next president has to tear the goddamn thing down. I am not kidding. Use private money. It can be found. Make a show of it.

I don't know what visual metaphor you need for the moment, but this should do it
Scoop: Trump has started demolishing the White House's East Wing facade to build his ballroom. The president had claimed construction of the $250 million building wouldn’t ‘interfere’ with the existing White House structure. /W @ddiamond.bsky.social wapo.st/4hqBNiU

Sometimes I have reservations about protests becoming unserious in the face of real injustices, but Frog is exactly what this moment called for.

Oregon's stubborn resistance to Texas National Guard troops invading reflects the elitist and closed-minded belief that the people of Portland have nothing to learn from the people of Texas

Happy to see this
It appears that my employer, Dartmouth, one of the Trump 9, has said no to the compact. All the better given that our president is cited within it. But she’s saying no. Count the small victories when they come.

Well, there it is. Sinclair is digging in for a fight, so please help push back -- find stations in your area, watch their local news to see what ads they run, then write those advertisers to tell them you're boycotting as long as they're on a Sinclair station.

1) Some of my speech got negative social reactions, which felt bad
2) That’s equivalent to state repression
3) Big name elite didn’t validate my feelings (ok, they did, but not enough)
4) This entitles—nay, requires—us to overthrow democracy and do state repression for real

That really is the logic

There is no world in which it is normal for the president to publicly call upon his attorney general to hurry up and prosecute his political foes. It’s like the Watergate tapes but posted on social media. Let’s get a grip on what’s happening here.

I had to right click, copy the cancel link and open it in a new browser. The hope, of course, is that this means lots of people are trying to do this at once.
I click "cancel subscription..." and get this.

Not letting people unsubscribe has the whiff of fraud, don't it?

Got the same -- what a coincidence! -- when I tried to unsubscribe from Hulu.

Years ago when RN was anonymous & there were rumours he was important, she dm’ed him & begged ‘him’ to come out in NY. I did not. I held her at arm’s length, & before RFK she freaked out at my criticism in DM. I reminded her of this, told her I don’t consort w/ unethical apologists, & blocked her.
I want everyone to take a step back for a second, remember why she was fired from New York and juxtapose this w/ all the high profile media folks that have recently lost *their* jobs. *Some* people are allowed to fail upwards. It's mesmerizing.
