NEWS --> BBC confirms to me that they did edit a line out of historian @rutgerbregman.com's speech. It called Trump "the most openly corrupt president in US history."

BBC also confirms this was done on the advice of lawyers. So Trump's threats worked.

New piece:

Trump’s Fury at BBC Gets Unnerving Results with Pro-MAGA Edit Stunner
First, British Broadcasting Corporation execs resigned after Trump complained about a segment. Now the BBC edited out a line from a historian that was critical of Trump. Where does this end?

Harvard should ask for its degree back from Ted Cruz because he is such an unbelievably ignorant piece of garbage. I cannot believe he actually has a law degree.
Ah yes. Harvard Law School in the early 1990s, well known for its Communist professors.

Merrick Garland COULD have, but didn't indict Trump, Graham, Cruz, Ginni Thomas, John Eastman, Ron Johnson and many others the day he was sworn in as AG, but instead he sat on his fucking hands. He indicted Trump almost TWO YEARS later under pressure from the J6 Committee.

Fuck that asshole.

Since this administration loves to charge people with making false statements (see, e.g., Comey, James), I assume they will be charging Maxwell for lying to Blanche and the FBI agents who interviewed her, right?
Ghislaine Maxwell lied about Trump never going to Epstein's house (directly contradicted by her email correspondence with Epstein), and she was rewarded for that lie with a transfer to a cushier prison. The coverup is happening in plain sight.

BREAKING: House Oversight releases damning emails from Jeffrey Epstein’s Estate that allegedly show Donald Trump knew about Epstein’s conduct.

I break down the emails at issue and discuss their implications.

@connieschultz.bsky.social and Durbin both need to be REMOVED from leadership and booted from every committee they are on. Put them in the wasteland.
How does the fucking WHIP betray the caucus and minority leader? I mean, isn't that grounds for immediate loss of your post. You are supposed to whip FOR the leader, not against.

We REALLY need a new opposition party. The Democrats have screwed us once again.

I will never donate another dime to these worthless assholes.

Merrick Garland appointing Jack Smith in November 20202, after midterms, will remain mind boggling and potentially fatal t our democracy: "Remember that coup from *two years ago*? We're now going to start our studious process of investigation." Smith should've been appointed on Jan. 21, 2021

After this is over, the people who committed crimes because Donald Trump asked them to need to be prosecuted immediately, decisively and to the full extent of the law. Pam Bondi, Pete Hegseth, Stephen Miller, Tom Homan and many others.

If a Dem in Congress won't commit to that, REMOVE them.

Hey MAGA; Your god and hitler action figure Trump just let criminal George Santos out of prison apparently because he's a Republican.

Any of you morons who claim the GOP is the party of "law & order" are either stupid or evil. That's your choices.

Trump is such an asshole. Norway is actually afraid of what he will do if he doesn’t win. That sounds exactly like what a fucking mobster would do.

Since the Trump admin is planning on "punishing" blue states by withholding billions in previously-approved funds (which is illegal), I think it's time for those blue states to consider withholding federal taxes until Trump adheres to the law!

Trump’s comments represent a dramatic about-face after he and his campaign spent much of last year denouncing Project 2025.
