We mapped Jeffrey Epstein's social network. Here's what we found.

As everyone … scrambles for further evidence of Trump’s connection to the prolific pedophile and sex-trafficker, what’s been—once again—lost in this discourse is the hundreds of women who survived the horrors Epstein, Ghislaine Maxwell, and their moneyed friends inflicted upon them.

CBS canceled Colbert’s show just THREE DAYS after Colbert called out CBS parent company Paramount for its $16M settlement with Trump – a deal that looks like bribery.

I wish the Catholic Bishops would speak up like this.
At St. Mark's in Minneapolis, my bishop condemns Christian Nationalism and NAR as a heresy.
"This is not an innocent heresy about the number of angels dancing on a pin. This heresy can lead to severely dangerous consequences, as any honest look at history will tell us." ⚓
