What other fraudulent disinformation have the pedophile protectors at the DOJ inserted into the Epstein Files?
The White House has been caught.
The administration inserted a photo of Bill Clinton, Michael Jackson, and Diana Ross into the Epstein files and falsely implied it showed them with victims.
In reality, it’s a publicly available fundraiser photo featuring Jackson and Ross’s own children.

All day, every day, 24/7/365 telling their voters and supporters, "We think you're the dumbest people in recorded history."
Nobody treats the Republican base with more contempt or counts on them being stupid more than Republicans
Karoline Leavitt lies with impunity on Fox & Friends: "Don't forget -- a year ago, President Trump inherited the worst inflation crisis in modern American history from the Biden administration."

Is it a threat to free speech when the President of the United States threatens to yank the broadcast license of a channel whose reporters are asking him challenging questions?
I ask because I feel like there used to be tons of pundits worried about free speech. Where'd they go?

Trump in response to an Epstein question: "ABC, your company, your crappy company is one of the perpetrators. I think the license should be taken away from ABC because your news is so fake and so wrong. And we have a great commissioner, a chairman, who should take a look at that."

Obviously, heavy-handed right-wing ownership is a crucial factor in the humiliating collapse of our national media, but I think this is a pretty key point as well. Reporters who are still spending time in the Nazi cesspool that is Twitter are not spending time in the real world.
Tonight's even more proof the mainstream reporters who are still on Twitter are suffering from a brain problem akin Havana Syndrome that is preventing them from accurately doing their jobs. They are being cooked alive by a snuff-focused apartheid algorithm.

a functional press would, every single day, repeatedly, across numerous paragraphs in every story about him, make it clear that this is indisputably the most corrupt President in U.S. history

This explains a lot about how so many mainstream journalists -- not just the ones working for avowedly right-wing media outlets such as the Washington Post and Politico -- are constantly tripping over their own dicks when they try to cover the actions of a criminal regime.
this is accurate along multiple dimensions
they’re getting dumber and more right wing but they are now smarter and more left wing in comparison to the people they see on twitter all day (stupid nazis) which also leads them to be even more prone to dismissing criticism from the left

twitter is making mainstream reporters dumber, and because they're all getting dumber together, none of them can recognize it and they actually think they're getting smarter

I've said it before, and I'll say it again: It's going to be a hell of a rude awakening for MAGAs when they realize you can't eat hate.
So Trump gave Argentina a $20 billion bailout and is now building a Qatari military facility in Idaho.

Body-camera video appears to contradict the government’s claim that Marimar Martinez, 30, drove toward officers before one of them opened fire at her late Saturday morning in Brighton Park, her attorney claimed.

A pattern is developing where everyone who fights back against a Trump attack inevitably wins with their reputation much better than before, and everyone who caves to him looks like shit and has Trump coming back for more a month later.

Shreveport, LA, the largest city in Speaker Mike Johnson's district, has a murder rate more than twice Chicago's, and a crime rate considerably higher than both the state and national average. And Johnson isn't calling for the military to invade it. One of many ways we know this isn't about crime.

To be a political reporter in 2025, you have to be gullible enough to believe that a convicted felon who launched a violent coup attempt is worried about crime.
Or you just have to be willing to pretend you’re that gullible.
