I really think the conventional wisdomers are underestimating how many people care about housing costs - and how much they care. The rent is too damn high.

So, skeptical of a screen shot from Twitter, I went through and translated his actual speech myself and it goes WAY HARDER THAN THE SCREEN SHOT SUGGESTS he mixes in the history of Colombia into the drug cartels and Bernie Moreno into Jeffrey Epstein, it's wild, wild stuff

It is past time to draw negative inferences from the destruction of evidence.

pretty sure sex trafficking and rape are bad even if the girl is 15 megyn

As @rbreich.bsky.social notes billionaires and their families own X, Paramount, CBS, Facebook, Instagram, WhatsApp, the Washington Post, Amazon, MGM, Fox News, the Wall Street Journal and New York Post, and could soon own Warner Bros and CNN And they are all Trump supporters "Liberal media" indeed

Increase in productivity since 1979: 87% Increase in hourly pay since 1979: 32% Just so happens that ~25% of workers were unionized in 1979. Today? 10%. As unions declined, the super-rich have taken a larger share of wealth generated by labor. We must build back union power.

The next question should always be: What about Jack Smith? Was he appointed properly? If not, why not?

My theory is that Epstein never even did a single transaction’s worth of investing for anybody, and his sole business consisted of trafficking girls using his client’s connections (via friendship or threat of blackmail) to work his way up & through the social ranks.

NEW: The first two years of Massachusetts' millionaire tax has raised $3 billion more than expected. And rather than driving the rich away, IPS researchers found that the number of millionaires has *increased.* Tax the rich. Greg Ryan in @bloomberg.com:

They're using bitcoin to take bribes and protection money. As soon as these bastards are out of office I want to see a full scale investigation of all of their criminal grifting. They're are the biggest crooks in US history, bar none.

What the Epstein files show is the *solidarity* of many men-across class, race, religion, profession & party affiliation-in the global political project of keeping the boot on women's necks. People have no problem understanding class solidarity among the rich. Why can't they see gender solidarity?

McGovern: Buried in this bill is a corrupt kickback for eight Republican senators, a million dollar payday funded by taxpayers, taken from the treasury and deposited directly into their pockets. What the hell is wrong with this place?

Scoop: News Corp’s California Post will court advertisers on the Fox studio lot next week, where the NY Post’s offshoot has quietly set up shop The Murdochs are planting a flag out West, aiming to exploit the vacuum left by a hollowed-out LAT www.status.news/p/california...

Local media is calling it: Katie Wilson will be the next mayor of Seattle. Wilson ousts Mayor Bruce Harrell after running as a progressive challenger. Her win is a west coast companion to Mamdani’s as a statement victory for the left.

NYT had details of Trump's engagement with Jeffrey Epstein's child sex trafficking and *hid it for him*, at the same time it was crucifying Clinton as untrustworthy due to her document retention & security.

Hannity: When did you notice Biden’s cognitive decline? Miller: I think it was through all of the times that Trump has fallen asleep in public and talked about magnets getting wet.

Does Jeffrey Epstein gaining blackmail & financial intelligence on powerful US figures then sharing it with the FSB & Mossad make him a treasonous spy or a savy business man? - Fox & Friends Tomorrow

The phone number for the U.S. Capitol switchboard is (202) 224-3121. #epstein

Epstein: I’m best friends with this pedo running for President, here’s a bunch of stories about how big a pedo he is NYT: but her emails

Can we just take a minute and acknowledge that our POTUS is right OUT IN THE OPEN lobbying Congressional members to vote against releasing the Epstein files?! Like... what the fuck else does anyone even need to know?

So, uh, the Jed Rubenfeld referenced here was disciplined by Yale Law for sexually harassing students. He's married to Amy Chua who among other things took to the pages of the NYT to defend Kavanaugh when he was under fire for sexually harassment. Ken Starr, well we know. This is just incredible.

At this point we have to assume that if the Epstein files are released they will - end the Trump Presidency - implicate many other prominent Republicans - destroy the careers of AG Bondi and his other defenders This is beginning to feel like the greatest scandal in American history.

*Government will reopen *ACA subsidies NOT extended, causing premiums to rocket for 24M+ *A bunch of Republican senators could net millions in taxpayer dollars for themselves, with at least one hoping to net more than $1M. *Intoxicating hemp banned *Govt could shut again 1/31

Did this ABC piece on Elstein that Dershowitz got spiled ever run? www.npr.org/2019/08/22/7...

Growing list of reasons Trump should step down: - Cover up of his involvement in notorious sex trafficking ring - Unprecedented corruption, self enrichment - Tariffs are historic, unprecedented abuse of power - Illegal desecration of most important global symbol of American democracy

Trump will start a war on the back nine at Doral, but to deal with his perv past it’s to the situation room.

it’s kind of wild that the central thesis of QAnon, that there is a group of high-ranking people in business, government, etc. that all are also pedophiles, is, well. Lotta people’s names show up in epstien’s email, quite a few times.

Pizzagate: If you replace the word “hot dog” with “little boy” and “pizza party” with “child sex orgy,” you will see the lengths these elites go to cover up their crimes. Real elite emails: Send me nude pictures of those 8th graders we abused last weekend post-haste! I am the Ambassador to Turkey.

The Kremlin disguised a nearly $100 mn payment to Trump in the form of a brokered real estate deal... and both Jeffrey Epstein and William Pulte were involved in the deal. That's very interesting.

Epstein wrote in emails, at least one back in 2011 when there would have been little incentive to lie, that Trump knew about what he was doing with girls www.nytimes.com/2025/11/12/u...

Lest there be any insinuation that Dems spared their own. It would be tough for Kathy Ruemmler—Obama’s WH Counsel from 2011 to mid-2014—to come off looking worse in these docs the committee Dems released. oversightdemocrats.house.gov/sites/evo-su...

I wonder if it'll turn out that Trump personally seized the materials recovered at Jeffrey Epstein's townhouse and he's been using them to coerce many people since then.

Ah yes, the most secure room in the White House, the one used to monitor and make decisions about natsec crises, now to be renamed the Don't Release Info About Trump Raping Kids room. We're at PEDOCON-1, people.

I just googled this man like 'ew who tf is this Tom Barrack guy' and the answer is the sitting, Donald Trump-appointed U.S. Ambassador to Turkey

“would you like photos of donald and girls in bikinis in my kitchen?” -Jeffrey Epstein

"just in" lol. how they break that one open. i've always found this the most appropriate image asset since melania is right there in the center of the picture.

Here it is!

huh, that's interesting. once you see the comparison, it becomes very obvious why one is better. would not have noticed it before

Josh has written about five things any democracy loving Senator must endorse. Agree.

I got the next season of The Bear right here!

if you can’t see the aurora borealis tonight, here is a sewer tunnel which is a wonder in itself.

I mean after he survived COVID he recorded that he would provide his treatment regimen to all seniors for free and then did literally nothing.

It's not out of the realm of possibility that this story would be the first time some readers learn about deportations of people they'd consider to not be ICE targets. And once you chip away at a mental shortcut that predefines how people see the issue, you create pathways to open floodgates.

this is the tackiest motherfucking shit i have ever seen. Even for Trump.

And here's the recent Waldorf Astoria renovation. This video is by the Instagram account oldegoodthings

As with every single Trump initiative they’re lying about the motivation. They’re not trying to starve insurers, they’re trying to kick millions off coverage. It’d be a catastrophe for everyone, covered or not.
