On this day in 1944, the Anti-Fascists of the 101st Airborne were holding their ground against all odds at Bastogne.
If you’ve seen “Band of Brothers” or appreciate history, you know what I mean.
I find their bravery humbling in these challenging times.

The scariest thing about the status of the Epstein Files is that there are at least 1,000 government employees who are willing to redact and come along quietly in the deception.
Like MAGA itself, it’s the complicity of the people that’s so alarming.

Fantastic article about how Epstein became rich. Bear/Stearns brokerage (yah that one) hired him where he served as pimp and drug dealer to the staff, essentially. Was a teacher before that. Yep, a teacher.

The money Trump promised to military personnel was taken from money already allocated for housing support efforts for the military, not some sort of “dividend” from tariffs or Trump economic gains.
