Worst. Timeline. Ever.
Anytime WWE is at Madison Square Garden, I keep hoping they use the Wrestlemania X/Survivor Series 2002/Royal Rumble 2008 stage set up, with the wrestler entrance right next to the ring.

Open bribery by a foreign leader. The exact scenario that the Founders feared.

A point of this reporting is to underscore how not just wildly scandalous Trump’s wide ranging coverup of the Epstein files is right now, but that his coverup has hit a new level of blatant political corruption and abuse of power.

Genuinely, historically atrocious in ways too many get numb to

The US President publicly ordering selective prosecution of Democrats over the Epstein files, and the US AG complying. In a functioning government, this would be an impeachable offense for both of them. In 2025, it's just another Friday.
