As the world awaits the release of the Epstein files, I'm mindful that the information in those files contains some of the most humiliating, painful moments of those women's lives. This first-person survivor account is a tough read [trigger warning] but this is important discourse. Read with care.
Roofied & Raped — An Unexpected Betrayal
Her first-person account reveals the truth about rape culture, complicity, and the lifelong echoes of trauma — and why she’s choosing to speak now.

Holy shit. This video gave me chills. If you watch one thing today, please let it be this.
Women’s March is speaking directly to ICE agents, to their humanity & asking them to walk away from Trump’s unconstitutional crackdowns.
Watch. Like. Share. Make it impossible to ignore.

Q: Have you heard this audio that Bloomberg has of Witkoff coaching the Russians on how to appeal to you?

TRUMP: That's a standard thing. He's gotta sell this to Ukraine, he's gonna sell Ukraine to Russia. That's what a dealmaker does. I haven't heard it but I heard it was standard negotiation.

Remember when Trump’s sons announced a made-in-the-USA smartphone and a new wireless service, Trump Mobile?

Three months later, the phone’s ship date keeps getting delayed with no explanation — although the company continues to collect $100 deposits.

The grift never ends.
The Trump Mobile phone is nowhere to be found after months of delay
Trump Mobile has posted conflicting photos of the phone and scrubbed mention of its “Made in the USA” promise.
