(🚨) MAJOR NEWS: Trump Agrees to Release of the Epstein Files

Let me just be the one millionth person to observe that this quite possibly means that he and his lawyers have already destroyed the portions of the Files they didn't want us to see. Hopefully they left accidental traces of this.

I'm no lawyer, but when the president is defending the elevation of literal Hitler lovers, no one should ever take anything his regime says, pretending to care about antisemitism, seriously. Hope every university in America gets that.

Glad to see 60 Minutes go after one of the most obvious acts of corruption in American history.

Good luck to whoever worked on this at their next job after Bari sees this.

THE FUCK? That's your take on emails that closely tie the worst child rapist of the century to the president of the United States, who is about to pardon or free said rapist's partner?

We found that a company with deep ties to Kristi Noem secretly got money from DHS contracts.

“It’s corrupt, is the word,” a contract law expert said. “Hiding your friends as subcontractors is like playing hide the salami with the taxpayer.”

What an absolute sexist 🐽

Obviously, there are many more, less famous, Summers-types in academia, and in every discipline. As long as we don’t shame and exclude them, women will continue to be harnessed, marginalized, and pushed out of academia. 😡
The emails have Summers reporting to Epstein about his attempts to date a Harvard economics student & to hit on her during a seminar she was giving.

I’m about to publish an essay on this but the problem with that gambit—which I agree they’ll attempt—is that Trump used the Epstein *Estate* emails to justify a new probe, not the Epstein *Files* Bondi already said warranted no new *investigations* (not just charges)

So a mix-and-match may not work

Is it time for him to go?

Nuzzi's fawning coverage of the sociopathic conspiracy crank she was having an affair with aided his rise to political power, which he is using to perpetrate the worst intentional public health catastrophe of our unnecessarily shortened lifetimes, and THAT is the STORY.

@govpritzker.illinois.gov how long will you allow law enforcement to target members of the clergy?
at one point, i watched a cook county sheriff’s officer (who appears to be in charge) point out a priest in the crowd.

he and a couple officers then went into the crowd , dragged him into the street, and arrested him.

situation is still tense as crowd jostles with police to get into the street.
