Whoa…. Well, I am not sure that the Canadian demand will ever return to the pre-tariff levels. All self inflicted by 🍊💩
It’s impossible to overstate what a big deal this is for this legendary Kentucky brand. The last time Jim Beam closed down like this was during Prohibition. Trump’s tariffs & fight with Canada are surely to blame.

Khanna: "The problem here is there are rich and powerful people who either engaged in this abuse, covered it up, or we're on this island. What the American people want to know is who are these people? Instead of holding them accountable, Pam Bondi is breaking the law."

Have you ever heard someone go off, and their words are so perfectly chosen, so well said in that moment, that you’re in awe? You think, “There’s nothing to add here,” and you applaud in your head.

That’s exactly this. Pure perfection. 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

Just walked right into that one.
WELKER: Why was this photo of a desk with a drawer open containing photos of Trump taken down?

BLANCHE: You can see in that photo there are photos of women. We learned there were concerns about them.

W: Are you saying those women are victims of Epstein?

B: No, that's not what I'm saying.

Melania, a film by a friend of Jeffrey Epstein, Brett Ratner, about another friend of Jeffrey Epstein, Melania Trump, who Jeffrey Epstein introduced to his other friend, Donald Trump, on his jet, The Lolita Express. Donald and Melania had sex for the first time on that flight. Ah, such romance!

Stonewalling can work. But partial coverups are difficult to manage successfully, as the Trump administration is finding out. They tend to unravel. But it’s important to yank on every loose thread to keep it unraveling.

Former FSU student!
Clear evidence that at universities conservatives don't face higher obstacles than liberals to establish student groups + invite outside speakers.

"These results fail to offer support for the view that conservative students encounter more difficulty in efforts to access campus resources."

Ben Shapiro is used to being around conservatives who make tasteless jokes about Jews, & assuming that’s as deep as the antisemitism goes. These deep cut tropes coming into wider circulation on the right now are the sorts of things people say who have had conversations about murdering lots of Jews.
When I say that it's grim that Jewish people on the right are about to find themselves unwelcome, I am referring to rising antisemitism, which is dangerous and bad

Tucker Carlson and Candace Owens aren't just against Israel. They are actively promoting antisemitic tropes. This is a problem!

They’re actually redacting Trump’s name AFTER the release.
🚨 The DOJ appears to have redacted Donald Trump’s name from the allegations made in this exhibit in the Epstein files.

Trump’s name was in the original release. Now, it’s blacked out.

See for yourself.
