When asked if there was anything "incriminating" in Epstein's emails, Trump pointed a finger in a female reporter's face and snapped. 'Quiet. Quiet, Piggy.'

@prisonculture.bsky.social QTd this, reminding me of an idea she'd suggested: that Zohran issue a zine about his first 100 days before taking office.

I'm now imagining such zines installed in these machines (👇) stationed throughout the city. Perhaps an action-idea worth trying to pitch to Z's team?

The Epstein emails have damaged Trump beyond repair, because the public has now seen the gross moral rot behind Trump's presidency and the elites who prop it up (and fawned over a convicted sex creep)

Knowing the key to understanding right-wing politics in the US is understanding wrestling, they see government as kayfabe, I will ask my more wrestling-adjacent friends if this MTG/Trump break is a face turn by MTG (still a racist anti-semite, don't get me wrong) or a false break like Musk/Trump.

It's hard to express what it meant to watch Maurice, Natalia, Celeste, and Rhea tell their stories—in their own voices—this morning.

The segment revealed a brutal reality: homelessness at this scale isn't about personal failure. It's the result of policy choices and systems built to exploit people.

Incredible work.
This is a 52-pound 9000+ page accordion-bound artist’s book of Donald Trump’s lies, conceived, printed, and bound by Jill and Ray Nichols of @leadgraffiti.bsky.social in Delaware. Each of the 9000 pages has the text (per the Washington Post) of one or more of Trump’s lies; none are repeated.

How she was bullied to protect Dershowitz
To be very clear, Virginia Giuffre was made to say she mistakenly identified Alan Dershowitz as one of the people who sexually abused her. Here is the proof from this week's Epstein files dropped by the House Oversight Committee.

This person is so tough that she's blocked me on Bluesky and Twitter for bringing up her pedophile boyfriend. She's in the rage bait business, can dish it out, but can't take it. Sad.

Never forget the same people defending pedophilia have spent years trying to convince the public that drag queens and trans people are a threat to children.

It’s all smoke and mirrors to allow the real predators to roam free.

Thinking today how homelessness runs through this story, through Epstein's (Virginia Guiffre had been homeless before meeting him), and even through Gaiman's (his nanny was sleeping on the beach when Palmer recruited her, and he used threats of homelessness against another victim).
