My mother told me when I was growing up not to talk to strangers. In accordance with this advice, I will not reply to chats from people I do not know IRL. If you want to carry on a conversation, reply to one of my posts. I may respond if you make a good point or a bad one that I want to counter.

Dershowitz is in a real bind here, because on the one hand, “Epstein was good, actually” isn’t a winning position.
On the other hand, if Dershowitz doesn’t go on TV at least once a week, he will literally die, so 🤷♂️

Dershowitz: The predecessor on your show described Epstein as a convicted pedophile. He pleaded guilty to one count of having sex for money with a 17-year-and-10-month-old person. That’s not a pedophile.

IT WAS THE BEST MRI OF WHATEVER EVER IT WAS SO AMAZING IT EVEN HAD DR. LECTER IN TEARS AND THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER
Trump: I had an MRI and the result was outstanding.
Reporter: Was it your brain?
Trump: I have no idea what they analyzed, but whatever they analyzed, they analyzed it well.

Donald Trump’s name appears in 1,628 of the recently released documents from Jeffrey Epstein’s estate.
No wonder he’s trying to stop us from releasing the files. It’s time to release every last one.

They're running from it now. But the fact that Senate Republicans tried to give 10 of their colleagues at least $1 million each for nothing but a bogus press op captures the corruption of Trump II. In no other environment wld this even occur to the most corrupt politicians.

Fortunately for Trump, he has a large partisan majority in the House and close ties with many Democrats so driving away Republicans who crossed him is totally safe.
Trump so far has attacked Rep. Thomas Massie R-KY and Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene R-GA. What do they have in common?
Both want to release the Epstein Files.

Count the ways they’re corrupting DOJ: Presidents don’t direct AG’s to open criminal cases, especially ones designating only Dems for investigation when POTUS himself is involved. DOJ doesn’t publicize criminal investigations & the AG definitely doesn’t assign them on Twitter.

I'm not an economist, but it is my understanding that deflation only occurs during a depression. Is he saying that immigration policy will lead to a depression?
Fed Governor Stephen Miran: "Cutting down net migration to 0, potentially even negative because of the deportations that have been occurring, I think is very deflationary."

Great line from Rep Adam Smith here on this crazy memo on Trump's boat murders: He says administration lawyers may be looking at the bombings and saying, in effect, “Damn, we are really pushing the envelope here. We’d better do something a little extra special to protect our people.”
The memo “signals fear that what they’re doing is illegal and that they could possibly be subject to criminal action under US law and international law,” Rep Adam Smith, top Armed Services Dem, tells me.
This opens them up to Qs about why they put this in there:
