In case people tell you that public criticism of the court doesn’t matter, here’s Brett Kavanaugh trying to walk back what he said in the ICE roving patrol case - when he blessed racial profiling & called the stops prompt. He was lambasted; @akalhan.bsky.social coined the term “Kavanaugh stops”

Also, Justice Kavanaugh sounds like he really, really wants a second try at his decision authorizing Kavanaugh Stops. He's now insisting that immigration enforcement should not be like EXACTLY WHAT IMMIGRATION ENFORCEMENT IS LIKE UNDER TRUMP'S THUGGERY.

Worth repeating this with every new Epstein document drop. The party of Denny Hastert is the party of Jim Jordan is the party of Matt Gaetz is the party of Donald Trump. Looking the other way and protecting child predators from the law is their brand.

maybe it's a forgery. but if so, it's a patriotic one lol

Pretending not to know that when you send letters from and to people in prison they get routed to places — like one in VA — before being sent to the ultimate destination seems like an enormous tell to me, but ymmv

The “free speech” and “cancel culture” panics have led to overt state censorship because that was always their purpose. (Gift link) www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2025/1...

But I thought Russell Brand was a good Christian!!!

In which we learn that the US attorneys office concluded that Trump traveled on Air Epstein regularly without appearing in he passenger manifest.

The worst part of Home Alone 2 is the child rapist in the lobby of the Plaza Hotel.

The instrument that one would use to measure this level of failure is called a Bariometer

So apparently there are many Epstein files on the DOJ website where you can highlight the redacted text, copy it, and paste it onto another document to read the redactions

CBS paid the president of the United States millions in bribe money and now they censor news reports so it does not annoy him. I don’t know how much plainer we can put this.

when AI tech is mature next year, i will create a video of a white blonde woman getting fired from her job for refusing to apologize for being white. video will go viral. next, i will start a gofundme, which will earn me $2M in tax free income, allowing me to buy a home in a walkable neighborhood

Grief is a funny thing. It's been 16.5 years since my mother died. And we didn't have the best relationship. But today when I was loading the dishwasher, out of the blue, for no reason I can think of, I was suddenly sad about her. Christmas was her favorite time of the year.

Questions ever notice how he only says shit like this at TPUSA or Conservative PAC events? It's cause he's a chickenshit. But why don't reporters ever ask him about this?

If Blanche were telling the truth about Trump, they wouldn't be redacting the Epstein files or dangling a pardon in front of Gislane Maxwell.

Most US media are oblivious to Melania's role in the Epstein world and do no reporting on it. But Melania was introduced to Trump by Epstein while she was working for a modeling agency which Epstein controlled. This has appeared in UK media, but Melania struggling to keep it unpublished in the US.

"Attorney Darren Indyke and accountant Richard Kahn were officers of Epstein entities that obscured transactions, arranged cash for Epstein, made payments to women and facilitated marriages between women that turned out to be shams, The Wall Street Journal recently reported."

The name "Popular Science" doesn't mean we shift our coverage depending on public opinion. It means we cover relevant subjects that are rigorously researched, reliable, and grounded in reality. And trans lives are grounded in reality. We see y'all. No matter what. www.popsci.com/science/tran...

Matt Yglesias crushing a copy of Popular Science in his hand, wailing, sobbing

You really think we’re as shitty as you by daring us with the Bill Clinton photos. We give a fuck about laws, not leaders. If Clinton fucked a kid, arrest him. If Walter fucking Cronkite turns out to have done some shit, burn all the memorials to him. We are not the same as you.

Congratulations to all the graduates and to the Honor Graduates, and especially to Jared, the Diploma Programs Valedictorian, Jeremiah F, and the Degree Program Valedictorian, my daughter, Caitlin G, BSN.

This photo, file 468, from the Epstein files that includes Donald Trump has apparently now been removed from the DOJ release. AG Bondi, is this true? What else is being covered up? We need transparency for the American public.

I'm at this technical college graduation event and this is the third speaker who is speaking about either themselves, or something or someone who is not the Graduates, and it's getting really fucking irritating.

i was especially struck by these paragraphs, which rang very true to me. libs who grew up around conservatives aren't embarrassed to be liberals--or confused about what conservatives want. there's a certain kind of elite media man, on the other hand--

As a liberal from Arkansas, I cannot co-sign this hard enough.

Yes, doge killed a lot of kids, but they also did not cut spending. So who can say if it was worth it?

Here's Alex Acosta's interview (no idea if it has been released before). www.justice.gov/epstein/file...

And this is the stuff about Donnie that they did NOT redact.

Epstein brought a young girl to Trump. 'This is a good one, right?' Trump smiled and nodded in agreement. They both chuckled, and Doe felt uncomfortable but, at the time, was too young to understand why. My god, this is really stomach-churning and extremely hard to bear. This is a kid.

Even as other legacy media outlets are coming around to the fact that the DOJ Epstein File release was a sham, the Washington Post continues to parrot the administration's talking points.

FROM THE EPSTEIN FILES: During one of Doe's encounters with Epstein, he took her to Mar-a-Lago where he introduced her to its owner, Donald J. Trump. Introducing 14-year-old Doe to Donald J. Trump,... 1/2

Three years and one month from today, I’m going to grab a pickax and pull those letters off that building, but I’m going to need help holding the ladder. Are you in? Applying for my carpenter’s card today, so it’ll be a union job!!!

This is because Donald Trump raped a bunch of middle schoolers with his best friend Jeffrey Epstein and Melania knew about it. They wouldn't black out things that were exculpatory.

those who predicted authoritarianism were both dismissed, & deeply misunderstood, by the media my latest for @newrepublic.com newrepublic.com/article/2042...

Walz: "It's very clear that the entire federal government is weaponized against Minnesota. They're threatening us. And this is what happens when you have a floundering presidency and it's about those ballrooms. Now we're back on transgender folks."

On Dec. 19, 1941 - 84 years ago today - Sergeant-Major John Osborn, serving with the Winnipeg Grenadiers, sacrificed his life to save his men amid the Battle of Hong Kong. For his actions, he earned the Victoria Cross. Here is my Legion Magazine story on him. legionmagazine.com/remembering-...

If White House officials want a public discussion about private-sector job growth, that’s fine, but they may not like where the conversation ends up. www.ms.now/rachel-maddo...

I read this right after I read about a 22 year old American citizen being held by ICE because they insist, despite her birth certificate, medical records, and immunization records, that she was not born in the USA. The "Harris needed to earn my vote and she didn't" crowd are as responsible.

Nobody is actually surprised by this, right? www.threads.com/@briantylerc...

I too am bitter about not getting hired for jobs that I didn't apply for.

I am taking the opportunity to once again remind you of the time Naomi Wolf thought Apple invented time machines run by vaccines

They booked a bunch of 14 year old models to come to a Mar A Lago party, told them to dress sexy and tried to ply them with alcohol.

No, @naomiwolf.skystack.xyz you didn't get blocked from a job because you're white. That's what they told you so you wouldn't sue them. You probably got blocked because they looked at your social media and determined that you weren't a good fit because you're a pant-shitting-crazy loon.

Brockman is named in Virginia Guiffres book, including his "club" for unsavory activity during 2000 and 2001 . Also, Ellie Leonard (not on here, I think) is all over the NYT /Sulzberger angle and just got hired by @blueampmedia.bsky.social

Not to be rude to the NYT or anything, but maybe now's a good time for them to address Jeffrey Epstein's claim that he was good buddies with NYT publisher Punch Sulzberger in the 1970s? Epstein is known to exaggerate and lie; it might not be true. But it's about time NYT issued a statement. 10/

Adding: Yahoo Finance also reported in 2019 that Epstein was at the 2011 Billionaire's Dinner - and that his dinner pals had scrubbed mention of him from websites.The Epstein class were still glad to dine with a child sex predator, just tried to keep it from the public. h/t @lippard.bsky.social. 9/

A month ago, the NYT let Brooks write an op-ed telling people to move on from Epstein, dismissing claims Epstein ran a "sex-abuse ring", and defending his pals: "I know a thing or two about the American elite..but the phrase 'the Epstein class' is inaccurate, unfair and irresponsible." Guess not. 8/
