some great news despite the fact that she never should've been abducted in the first place—and the people who did it won't face any repercussions
New: Diana Santillana Galeano, whom federal immigration agents dragged out of a Rayito del Sol daycare on Chicago's north side last week, has been released from federal custody, the law firm HSPRD announced Thursday.
The release states she will meet with Rayito del Sol parents on Friday.

On Dec. 8, 2015, Jeffrey Epstein offers a NY Times reporter photos of Donald Trump and "girls in bikinis in my kitchen." Epstein tells the reporter that he "gave" Trump his "20 year old girlfriend...after two years."
When people looked into these type of rumors the Times smugly criticized them.

I feel like I'm taking crazy pills: the emails from Landon Thomas has his New York Times signature block...he was employed by NY Times at the time. He was communicating directly with Epstein about Trump, and was given incriminating information about Trump. It's been in NYT's possession since 2015

Imagine being a MAGA Republican right now who thinks that Donald Trump isn't a pedophile, or in the very least a protector of the Pedophile Class.
Imagine how fucking dumb that you'd have to be.

I don't often talk about having been a victim of sexual assault in my childhood and adolescence, but I will say now that everything I've been through in trying to rebuild my sense of self and become a functioning adult is burning in my chest with raw fury at seeing the stupid cruelty of these people

Well, the lesson of the Epstein files and the Panama Papers is virtually the same: elites, particularly rich and powerful men, do the most heinous shit on the regular and experience zero consequences.

This is what gender solidarity & male collective action to oppress women looks like, Part 2.
Easy prediction: there are going to be dozens, maybe hundreds, more examples of this coming out of the Epstein files. Will any male pundits remark on what it says about misogyny as a driver of US politics?

Jeffrey Epstein advised Steve Bannon that the lawyers representing Brett Kavanaugh in his confirmation hearing should accuse Christine Blasey Ford of being on medications that cause false memories or memory loss.

As an expert in the philosophical, social, & historical implications of technology allow me to explicate how self-referentially arguing that, in spite of its harms, "AI" is necessary because it will be necessary thus a) amounts to a continual cock gargling of the "AI" industry & b) is bad news bears

AOC: "It is unconscionable that what we are debating right now is legislation that will give 8 senators over $1 million a piece & we're robbing people of their food assistance & healthcare to pay for it. How can we vote to enrich ourselves by stealing from the American people?"

evidence is the stuff that detectives use to solve a mystery. they look at things to interpret the context, understand what happened when, and dynamics of interpersonal relationships.
how is there any doubt? these men & women are guilty beyond a *reasonable* doubt.

the man has admitted to sexually assaulting people and was legally proven by a court of law to be sexually assaulting people (a notoriously hard thing to do) but I’m sure this new evidence that he was sexually assaulting people will really wake up the base. It’ll be our lucky sexual assault evidence

I just walked out of federal court where I pleaded NOT GUILTY to the charges against me.
I will continue to stand up to authoritarianism and call this out for what it is: a political prosecution.

Just cuz I suspect it's gonna be relevant: "underage women" is a contradiction in terms. There are adults and there are minors, who are children. Ditto "nonconsensual sex." That's rape. The only reason to play semantic games is because you benefit from obscuring the simplicity of these terms.
