The perfect metaphor for Trump’s presidency is dead canaries. How many little dead birds do you need to see before you realise the air is toxic?

“The rape of children is not the tariff disaster. These crimes fill people with revulsion across the political spectrum. It can’t be blanked, wheedled out of with weasel words, equivocated, blustered into submission or drowned out with MAGA slogans.”

Apologies for being a grammar-nerd but you’ve got some typos there. If Trump had sex with an underaged girl then it wasn’t sex, it was rape. If the girl was underaged then she was a child. Please use: If Trump raped a child … ?

One word that stands out in all of the Epstein emails that’s I’ve seen so far is “fun”. I feel sick. Sometimes the weight of being a survivor is heavy.

The soft pedaling language being used to describe the men in the Epstein files is enraging.

They didn’t “have sex with underage girls”.

They raped them.

Sex implies consent.

The survivors deserve better than this. Use the correct language. Say what these men did.

Oh, “eva” is where Tump and Epstein had Thanksgiving dinner together in 2017. We can impeach now, right?

Just turned BBC radio 4 off because they’ve brought on Alastair Campbell. What a crushing bore. What a rank hypocrite. Speaking over the presenter, of course. And his record on Tony Blair? Give me a break - it’s too early in the morning.

It took 50 days and a whole lot of nonsense, but Congresswoman Adelita Grijalva is finally in her seat.

Mike Johnson didn’t stall her swearing-in by accident—he did it on purpose.

Because protecting predators was apparently more urgent than serving the people.

E-mails showing that Epstein was advising the Russians on how to manipulate Trump should be the straw that breaks the camel’s back. Notice I said, “should be.”

Of course Trump knew. “It is even said that he likes beautiful women as much as I do, and many of them are on the younger side. No doubt about it” - Trump talking about Epstein.
Trump knew about Epstein’s conduct, newly released emails suggest
In messages released by House Democrats, Epstein wrote ‘of course [Trump] knew about the girls’

I waited till my husband had called about 30 people then:-
Me: Do you know what the APGAR test is?
Him: It’s obviously some form of baby IQ test
Me: sure,sure.

Just like Trump boasted about his dementia test because he thought it was an IQ test 😂
Remind you of Trump? Our baby scored 8/10 on the Apgar test at birth then at the 5 minute mark he scored 10/10. That day my husband called all our family & friends, telling them that our baby had already improved to get 100% on a test,
after only 5 mins, and was therefore clearly a genius.
