There is only one reason Trump directed Bondi to investigate specific names in the Epstein files.
It’s so the DOJ can stonewall growing calls for their full release.
Not long ago, the DOJ declared there was nothing to investigate.
You are witness to the most blatant coverup in American history.

Sexual assault survivors are seeing politicians and TV personalities fall over themselves trying to obfuscate the horror of what Epstein did. Turn cartwheels to protect his powerful cronies.
Imagine the message that sends to them.
Now imagine why sexual assault survivors don’t come forward.

"there's less posting on BlueSky" yeah that's why we're here
Bluesky has a growth problem
Bluesky has hit 38M monthly users, up 8M since March
Once adding 5M users per month, it’s now slowed to 1.6M. A 60% drop
But post volume is falling—more users, less activity
It risks becoming a ghost town with a loyal but shrinking core

She says neither she nor other survivors have heard a word from the DOJ.

I expected the massive upward redistribution of wealth and income. The utter disdain for human life, health, well-being, tolerance, science, education, the rule of law and the constitution, and relish for cruelty, has gone so much further than I expected.

The New York City mass shooter had been diagnosed with multiple mental illnesses and had been the subject of two "mental health holds" in Las Vegas, but none of that limited his legal right to own firearms.
NYC shooter had two 'mental health holds' in Las Vegas. They didn't affect his legal right to own guns

Happy 60th birthday to the Voting Rights Act! This guarantee of voting rights to minorities was repeatedly reauthorized over the years by Congress. In recent years, voter suppression has resurfaced. Solidifying voting rights would seem to be an uncontroversial stance for Democrats nationwide.

I was just talking to my best friend in the world about our shared history of abuse by parents influenced by Dobson (and others of his ilk).
There are so many points of light that helped me deconstruct, but a visceral understanding that THERE IS NO RIGHT WAY TO HIT A CHILD was the biggest one

what's so chilling, to me, in all the evangelical parenting manuals i read and the testimony i received from survivors, is the idea in evangelical circles that striking your child in a cool and ritualistic manner is somehow better than doing so in anger. it isn't. it really isn't

6) We’ll be welcomed as liberators
7) It will be easy
8) It won’t take long
