There has 100% been a vibe shift on Twitter this week — apolitical and sports people are talking about Minneapolis and even a lot of right-leaning Finance Bros are like “you freaks have lost your minds.”
Whether that is representative of anything in the real world is TBD but it’s noticeable.

I'm not seeing anything about Epstein on here today. Did it work? Did he manage to get that off the news cycles with his invasion?

If I were actually a free thinker who questioned everything I might get to wondering why my government tries to make me mad at Somalis every time something new comes out about Epstein

It begins with a "you may recall" summary of the deportation to el Salvador. Describes the admin's claim that it could deport the men without due process

This image (File 468 in the Epstein records), showing Donald Trump, was part of the DOJ’s Friday release and has since vanished from the agency’s website. Funny how that works. Someone must have missed that redaction, oops.

Donald billionaire Trump today: “Affordability — they just say the word, it doesn't mean anything to anybody.”
“The word affordability is a con job by the Democrats.”
Boy, he is in for a shock if he keeps this up; talk about being out of touch with Americans.

Yes, HID headlights are very bright but the bigger problem is the proliferation of gargantuan vehicles with 5’+ hood heights so that if you’re driving a normal sized car their headlights are at your eye level rather than seat level like they’re supposed to be.

Just want to remind everyone that Mike Flynn told a crowd of rabid QAnon troglodytes in no uncertain terms that the military should conduct a coup in order to reinstall Trump as an unelected dictator, and he never once was subject to the penalties that the UCMJ demands for that sort of thing
