6 articles for Jeffrey Epstein
1 if you add Trump
3 if you add Clinton

So, the NYT finds out they have a reporter who is close to a source with incriminating evidence on the president and decide to fire him, but they let Haberman become friends with everyone in the White House so she can write flattering stories while holding back the good stuff for her book?

It's interesting that in all the breathless coverage of "Hilary's emails", journalists never seemed to care that Hilary's email server was actually secure. Her emails weren't hacked. It was DNC and Podesta that got hacked. But that's close enough for the NYT to lump it all into "Clinton email story"

Ken Starr definitely knew what Epstein was up to, not because it was in the news, but because he was Epstein's lawyer.
November 13, 2025 at 6:06 PM
Was Epstein really that famous? I'm sure he was well known in some circles but would the average person have any idea who he was?
The first time I'd ever heard of him was in 2016 in the months before the election. And that was just some people talking about him in an online forum. Not the news.

Their problem with sex trafficking isn't about sex with children, it's about sex outside of marriage.
They already know Trump is guilty of that and they don't care.

Did Acosta know, in 2007, that Trump would be president one day? No.
Did Acosta know he'd be rewarded if he gave Epstein a good deal? Probably.
Did Acosta know about Trump's connection to Epstein when Trump was looking to fill out his cabinet? Certainly.

When Epstein was arrested, everyone was talking about who he would rat out to get out of jail and this reporter and the NYT were sitting on these emails?
It wasn't newsworthy when Epstein died under mysterious circumstances in a federal prison while trump was in charge of the federal government?

Charlotte would present some impediments because it's not within the 100 mile border zone.

It's something you'd hear on an infomercial or QVC.

According to Trump:
rare earth minerals means rare earth magnets and if it's rare it must be valuable.

Fiber optics are glass wires and glass doesn't work with electricity so fibre optics don't work.

Asylum seekers are from insane asylums so asylum seekers are dangerous insane people.

Someone explained fiber optic cable to Trump as "like a glass wire" and now we're going to replace the infrastructure of every control tower in the country with expensive technology that will fail every time it rains.
It's technological Lysenkoism and not a single major media outlet gives a shit.

Remember when Elon wanted people to think he played video games, but he was just paying people to play games for him.

Shutdown going into Thanksgiving after huge electoral victories was a lot of leverage for Dems.
They could've asked for more. Instead they asked for less.
By announcing that they were bluffing the whole time they made the shutdown into a pointless stunt and ruined their future negotiating position.
November 10, 2025 at 7:12 PM
Last week Republicans were in a situation they couldn't win. Keep the shutdown or give in to Democrats demands.

This week Dems put Republicans in a situation they can't lose. Pass the ACA extension and get credit or don't and let Democrats get the blame.

We were too mean to George Lucas and not mean enough to JJ Abrams.

Remember those guys you loved from the original movies? They failed and their lives were terrible.
Han and Leia split after their son does a school shooting. Empire comes back right away. The Emperor was fine. It was all for nothing

I actually did like Phantom Menace. It wasn't a good movie, but it was doing new things and taking us to new places we hadn't seen before in Star Wars.

Compare it to the last trilogy and it probably stands out as colorful and fun. Plus It isn't that mystery box garbage.
November 10, 2025 at 6:33 PM
Actually yes. Until you mentioned it, my memory of Phantom Menace was Liam Neeson finds magic slave, then a pod race, then an awesome fight with Darth Maul. Jar Jar is there, and R2D2 does some bullshit.

I had totally forgotten the underwater stuff.
