Wasn’t expecting the Epstein scandal to blow up the New York Times but sure, why not
To recap: Jeffrey Epstein offered a NY Times reporter photos taken in Epstein's kitchen of Donald Trump and girls in bikinis *and* implored the NYT reporter to put this information in the public discourse in 2015

What did the NY Times editors know about this offer?

Jesus Christ. We should have heard about this shit back in 2015. Fuck every reporter who kept this quiet.

And fuck the New York Times for focusing on Hillary Clinton's bullshit risotto emails instead of this when it was *right there*

We didn't have to live like this. We are here for *so* many reason, so many failures at so many levels, yet there were still pp who voted that pedophile--allegedly but come the fuck on--back into office.

Now we can hang this over MAGA for the rest of their miserable lives.

Newsom: "It's not about rule of law anymore. It's rule of Don. He's choosing which court decisions he agrees with. He's quite literally running an extortion racket. He's doing it with some of the most powerful corporate leaders. What does everything have in common? Tariffs. They're about leverage"

Walz: This is North Korea style stuff. And it's being done because this is a weak, thin skinned man who's failing as a president. All of the things he promised are not happening.

It's a it's our most cherished freedom to point out very clearly, this is a terrible president

The number of people fired or suspended for speaking the truth about Charlie Kirk must serve as a reminder none of the far right are free speech advocates, they just want no limits on what they say.

Far right influencers, the US government and national media all colluded with malice to cook a story that would target all trans people with violence before any facts were available that could contradict.

You can’t call this tin foil hat thinking either b/c we all watched it happen in real time.

Walz says Harris "would have been a fantastic president... we wouldn't wake up every day to a bunch of shit on TV. We would wake up to an adult w/ compassion & dignity doing the work, not a manchild crying about whatever is wrong with him. May his fat ankles find something today. Petty as hell."

Asked if he'd vote for Chuck Schumer to remain Democratic Leader, Graham Palmer replies: "No."

"We need leaders that have vision and, frankly, the ability to fight. The things that I've seen recently don't show me a Democratic leadership that has that."

The #1 domestic terror threat in America is right-wing terrorism and white supremacist violence. They echo the conspiracies that have been mainstreamed by Trump, MAGA and right-wing media.

No accountability. No scrutiny.

They just keep doing it because it fuels their agenda and brings in $$$.
The Emory shooter was a regular visitor to right-wing social media accounts which persuaded him that the Covid-19 vaccine was to blame for all his personal medical problems. So he took his gun to shoot up the CDC, killing a policeman in the process.

#ICE Agents Tear Down Cameras And Break Doors And Windows At Restaurant in Burbank

Only criminals would need to do this. They know they're breaking the law, and they're destroying anything that can give evidence.

WHEN HEATHER COX RICHARDSON SPEAKS, LISTEN

Out of the gate, why is ICE offering enormous signing bonuses and paying-off student loans to get people to work for them? Because no one (but the worst of humanity) wants to work for them.

Every reputable expert I know considers mRNA vaccine technology to be one of the most revolutionary advances in medicine in our lifetimes. Its inventors won the Nobel Prize in 2023. Shutting it down now is pointless self-harm to humanity.
