People who are non-white and non-male must be subject to particular scrutiny because their rise questions, implicitly, the legitimacy of the dominance of white men in the first place. Mistakes that would be treated as minor for white men must be amplified into proof of their illegitimacy.

Procedural violations (her emails) or personal flaws (Biden’s aging) are understandable in this framework and need to be punished to reassert the legitimacy of the system. “The president is a rapist who participated in a child trafficking network” breaks the whole premise of legitimacy.

If the GOP endorses racism, or transphobia, or dictatorship, they believe that these ideas must be, at least in part, acceptable ones - because to recognize them as unacceptable calls the whole process of power into question.

More than anything else, powerful men - like the ones who run the NYT - believe in the legitimacy of power itself. Because if it isn’t legitimate, they have to start asking hard questions about the world and themselves.

The people in my life saw me post the same thing every day for more than a year during his first term - that he raped multiple children and has gotten away with it because he is rich, and they still voted for him two more times.

he’s a provider of access to money, connections and beautiful women and girls — everything that these people need to affirm their own status. being rich and powerful is a grift which requires other to bolster & buy in. That’s the service Epstein provided.
Something that’s so striking in these emails is how…unimpressive Epstein is. He comes off as a pompous, sub-literate lech. Yes everyone is so mortifyingly solicitous of him! All fawning and flattery! Why?????

One of the 17 year old girls Matt Gaetz allegedly trafficked and had sex with needed the money to pay for braces. She ended up homeless and working at McDonald's. Just incredibly bleak stuff.

at this point it seems like it's 100% sure it's going to come out that trump 100% had sex with a child, they're just setting his defense up now "yeah but the child he raped was practically an adult"
Megyn Kelly: "I know somebody very close to this case…Jeffrey Epstein, in this person's view, was not a pedophile…He was into the barely legal type, like he liked 15 year old girls…He wasn't into like 8 year olds…There's a difference between a 15 year old and a 5 year old."

There are tens of thousands of members of the political and financial elite around New York, Washington, and Florida who need to each be held in custody and interrogated until we find out what they knew and when they knew it.

Sorry, people had this guy clocked from the beginning. The time to take Trump off the national stage was when he was a misogynist, which has been since always. But the media was complicit, the GOP... they all helped misogyny win, and are now shocked that he behaves like a misogynist?
Thomas Massie to CNN on the Epstein files: "This vote is gonna be on your record for longer than Trump is gonna be president. And what are you gonna do in 2028 and 2030 when you're in a debate … and they say, 'How can we trust you? You covered up for a pedophile back in 2025.'"

It all would have been much easier if, as would have happened if we were remotely a serious country, it all ended with the Access Hollywood interview.

We don't end this in trials. Justice will not be served unless this ends in tribunals.

So getting to read billionaire’s emails after they die is something we can actually do? Actually see what they think of the rest of us?

Wow, we should kill one more often.

Wow.

Jeffrey Epstein writing about Trump in 2018:

"He feels alone and is nuts!!! I told everyone from day one. Evil beyond belief. Mad, and most thought I was speaking metaphorically. It's obvious he could crack. Stormy Daniels? Lies after lies after lies."

impeachment and removal remains the goal & it’s not clear there will be a better opening for democrats to start talking about it than right after this vote
POLITICO: “.. GOP leadership aides believe dozens of Republicans will vote it, possibly 100 or more, according to five people granted anonymity to speak candidly.”

I’m going to say that every day that @housedemocrats.bsky.social don’t file articles of impeachment is another day that they have consented to having that Pedophile Rapist in the White House.

Long odds but if this is the moment he uses the National Guard to physically prevent Congress from meeting in the Capitol, we aren’t even going to get a new Tennis Court Oath. Schemer’s just going to shrug again. Assholes.
The Speaker of the House shut the chamber down for two months to block the release of the Epstein Files and the president is huddled in the Situation Room of the White House to formulate a plan to keep them from being released, and I don't know why you crazy libs think there's some kind of cover up.

Lutnick is the current Secretary of Commerce and Epstein sent this email three months before he died.
Epstein mocked Trump for “leaving his nose print on the glass” while watching young women, wrote that Trump knew about illicit activity tied to Mar-a-Lago, and visited “many times,” and noted Trump’s planned visit to his neighbor Howard Lutnick’s house.
