@anandwrites.bsky.social has nailed in this piece what has been grinding away at my gut since my own review of the Epstein files— that there truly is an “Epstein class” of elites, inured to the pain of the rest of us, committed to their own ends no matter the cost.

Many US liberals would prefer to forget, but the straightforward truth is that Biden and the Democrats deliberately enabled the uncontrolled spread of Covid-19 between 2021 and 2024, recklessly causing huge amounts of illness and mortality.

I’ll never forgive Biden and the Democrats for lying and saying the pandemic’s over & caving so quickly on clean indoor air & the need for continued masking. It’s because of them that the vast majority of otherwise “sensible & reasonable” people mistakenly think COVID’s a cold.

Reports and video show flash-bangs thrown into piles of debris just before a car caught fire, strongly suggesting it was law enforcement, not protesters, who sparked it. More details are coming. Don’t let them control the narrative. Thank you to everyone sharing footage, always record everything.

It's just another summer night in North Long Beach. We're down the road from Paramount. I remember the LA Riots vividly, shops were looted, and burned blocks from where I was standing. There's nothing happening worthy of a National Guard response.

Cato has published my comprehensive review of the ~240 Venezuelans the US government renditioned 2 months ago to Salvador’s notorious prison. We identified FIFTY who came legally, never violated any immigration law, but are imprisoned at the US government’s request and at US taxpayer expense.

”white supremacist book purge” is exactly right. it goes along with the segregationist purge of the service academies.

I do not think it is a coincidence that Trump and Karoline Leavitt are both floating the “US Citizens sent to El Salvador” a few days after massive, distributed anti-Trump protests.
It is a threat, and we need to be louder and angrier than ever before on behalf of everyone who has been sent.

It’s almost like the misogyny that’s as present on the left as it is on the right leaves us ridiculing a well organized and effective activist group instead of learning from and building on their success.
I've said this before but I'll say it again: Wine moms get the job done. When Moms for Liberty attempted a hostile takeover of K-12 education, it was the wine moms who rose up, ran for office, supported candidates, went to school/library meetings, made calls, and went to the mat.

I ran some numbers last year on voter fraud using the Heritage Foundation's claim of 1,500 cases of voter fraud. Their database needed cases dating back to 1948 to get to 1,500 and they note 41 *attempts" by non-citizens to vote in 40 years, or 1/year. Lightning strikes kill 20/year in America.

If you’re a contractor with a segregation policy, say it loud—so non-white dollars don’t fund your business. It won’t go how you think.
And if anyone uncovers businesses doing this, put them on blast.

A teacher in Idaho has been told to remove posters reading "Everyone is welcome here" - specifically because it features different skin tones. As I wrote last week, this is a global political movement that has explicitly set the goal of eradicating the very concept of equality.

In Massachusetts, at Logan airport, immigration thugs stripped an innocent man naked, tortured him, and pressured him to give up his green card.
The headline really sanitizes what they did to this guy. Getting stripped naked, inadequate food, sleep deprivation sounds more like war on terror ear rendition than "interrogation."
