"we're the REAL Catholic Church" and it's just Matt Walsh, Mel Gibson, and Nick Fuentes in a room with an excommunicated Opus Dei priest

Are we still arresting youth pastors for fucking 15 year olds? Huh. Looks like we are. www.joemygod.com/2025/11/miss...

i wrote about shame, its role in our civic life, and why we need to make america ashamed again.

Trump's policies are inflicting so much harm even his allies can see it. Yet he's mostly doing exactly what he promised to. If they revolt over policy, they'll reveal they were fools to back him in the first place. They need a *moral* reason to abandon him. The Epstein files provide just that.

Thats racism. He purposely ran into those young men. See, you are "okay" of you play for them. That's how that shit works.

18 days before Jeffrey Epstein was found dead in his cell, he was found unresponsive in his cell. He claimed his cell mate tried to kill him. His then cell mate, a corrupt cop charged with four time murder is now seeking a presidential pardon.

The U.S. bishops defended migrant families. Tom Homan snapped. Nan Hayworth called Pope Leo a “tool of our enemies.” Tim Burchett accused the church of getting rich off of sex trafficking. Matt Walsh, Lara Logan, and the rest joined in. This is what MAGA anti-Catholicism looks like.

Charlotte is turning into Chicago in the course of a day. My husband went to work earlier this afternoon and was informed Hispanic staff were sent home due to an ICE raid around the block in which all the Hispanic employees were rounded up and arrested. Fuck ICE.

If you want people to believe a different story, you have to tell a different story. And more than tell it. People learn by example. They must be shown the truth that, for example, immigrants are awesome, respecting other races is rewarding, working people generate our wealth, and so on.

A big victory for the University of California. And a call to every university across the U.S. to refuse to sacrifice academic freedom to Donald Trump. Our democracy requires your uncensored voices. And the law is on your side.

“Parents who, after consulting with a doctor and a psychologist, allow their 15-year-old child to transition commit child abuse. The child is too young to consent!” --Megyn R. Kelly “Grown men who have sex with your 15-year-old? Big whoop! It’s not like she’s 8. LOL!” --Also Megyn R. Kelly

If women are underrepresented in STEM, it's at least partly because men like this offer mentoring, then embarrass themselves by assuming their mentees must be into them, then decide the best solution is to cut ties, which sends the signal to other faculty that the mentee must not be good enough.

Even by the standards of the past year the moral injury this week has been overwhelming. May these women find justice. May all girls and children be safe and get the leaders they (and all of us) deserve.

I wanted to share probably the most important sermon I’ve given and it’s while I’m being arrested. It’s torture pure and simple what happens at #Broadview. I’m ok, though I was thrown to the ground and choked with my pectoral cross. A review of the video shows I was peaceful - did I deserve this?

Not that I believe really anything Nuzzi writes, given her record, but the far bigger scandal here is her claim that RFK Jr. was still actively using psychedelics last year, then became HHS secretary in an admin that is killing people for smuggling recreational drugs.

I'm seeing people wonder why ICE is going after Charlotte. ICE has been at war with Charlotte's sheriff ever since he won in 2018. We'd covered this at Bolts back in the day; this quote is from that sheriff:

The fact that Summers remained so popular after questioning the intellectual abilities of women is really a pretty harsh indictment of US society as a whole and particularly the elite circles Summers travels in, and Democrats should have kicked him to the curb for that shit.

WATCH - @tarapalmeri.bsky.social : “Hey Megyn Kelly… you want to hear the sound of one of the girls recruited from her nearby high school by Epstein? It is pedophilia. I would recommend you go listen to the audio from the police reports.”

During the shutdown, many theories emerged as to what Republicans were up to. But there was one explanation that I kept hearing from House Democrats: it was all about the Epstein Files. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/it-w...

i think online gambling is a cancer that is spreading throughout our society, it was a horrible mistake to de-regulate it, and we desperately need to crack down on it again

ICE has arrested about 600 immigrants in the city of Chicago. You know how many of them have criminal records? Sixteen. They promised to secure the border and remove anybody who was violent — and they lied.

This is so so disturbing. Trump is now pardoning January 6th rioters for unrelated crimes, just to reward them for their violence to keep him in power. The Republican Party is in the full time business of endorsing and incentivizing political violence. So scary.

I mostly just hate the idea that you should only throw your best punch. A scandal is a perfect way to land body blows, & Epstein is a heck of a scandal

No one should have to face such threats. It would’ve been nice if Greene had realized this before she amplified and endorsed calls for executing Nancy Pelosi and Barack Obama.

Important to remember: If the worst of the Epstein stuff had already been released, there would be no reason for Trump to keep fighting it. If he’s trying to stop it, there’s a reason why.

I keep watching series and movies with Julianne Moore in them and I’m not sorry. She is able to blend vulnerability and strength in such a unique way.

A former career DOJ guy told me a few weeks ago that prior to Trump, the FBI was the varsity team, DHI and ICE were junior varsity, and Border Patrol were like a drunken office softball team. And under Trump, the drunk softball guys are now in charge.

Too few people are talking about the fact that for eight years (2011-2019), while Jeffrey Epstein was raping young girls and trafficking them to hundreds of other rapists from his home base in Palm Beach, Florida, the Florida district attorney was Pam Bondi. Connect the dots.

I hope the dead kids haunt her house

Here’s a Look at What the FBI’s Epstein Files Would Reveal An index from an 8-year-old #FOIA lawsuit shows the FBI is withholding bank & phone records, photos, comms w/foreign govt agencies & other revealing material related to its 2006 investigation www.bloomberg.com/news/newslet...

Just in the past 3 days, I happened to speak to an academic, a US politician and a former Biden official who had all received death threats and severe harassment from the MAGA movement. It's now a common experience. I am sorry MTG has to live through the same thing, but she can't be surprised

This is how you turn a purple state blue for generations. Terrorize its citizens so they never forget what the Republicans party stands for.

Living by the sword: yes, hahaha, this rules Dying by the sword: wtf is this shit

“A since-deleted video from 2019 shows MTG harassing @AOC's office through a locked door. Calling her ‘crazy eyes’ and telling her through the office's mailbox slot to ‘get rid of your diaper’ while telling the office to open the door and come out.” h/t @kfile.bsky.social … 1/ x.com/kfile/status...

If they have not done so already, the House subcommittee on oversight and accountability should call Michael Wolff to speak under oath in a public hearing. And they should subpoena all of his Epstein-related email records.

Jail for him

Everyone implicated in the Epstein Files should be in jail. I don’t care how valuable you are to society or what wonderful things you’ve done in your life.

I can’t believe people are standing up for pedophiles. There was a famous geochemist, Tony Lasaga, whose work helped us understand the long term carbon cycle. He was also a child rapist. At his sentencing, colleagues actually argued for a lighter sentence because his expertise was too valuable. 🤦🏻‍♂️

Just how morally, ethically, intellectually bankrupt do you have to be to argue that 15-year-olds can sell sex but can’t affirm gender

Some inspiring words on cinema in the streaming era from the Pope. Yes, THAT Pope.

made a similar point on the opinions podcast this week in response to the idea that epstein is a dead end. not only are actual voters interested in this but it divides the gop and puts pressure on the president. it would be political malpractice to treat it as a sideshow

The long knives are out, adding to Pulte’s rough week: “.. Some administration officials have grown wary of Pulte’s unorthodox and aggressive tactics and have been gathering information on what they see as his missteps and political vulnerabilities, ..” @wsj.com www.wsj.com/politics/pol...

I'm sorry but genuinely how is the American media glamourising Olivia Nuzzi sleeping with a source

WOLFF: “@RepTimBurchett long supported the release of the Epstein Files. However, his tone quickly changed once Trump was named in the few documents that have been released…” Nobody in Knoxville/Tennessee is buying the act, Tim. www.knoxnews.com/story/opinio...

Just a note that the US passed landmark civil rights legislation enforcing the rights of disabled students to reasonable accommodation. This is a form of segregation. And segregationists like this also tend to believe in other forms of segregation.

So, I need to make sure certain people, men in particular, to understand that: 1) knowing the age of consent in ANY state 2) mentioning someone’s age IN YEARS AND MONTHS means that you’ve not only lost the argument, but also that you cannot be trusted. Folks around you will adjust accordingly.

weirdos keep mentioning Harry with Andrew, as if they are equally offensive to the Crown, which is dumb as hell. One married a Black woman. The other is a sexual predator. Absurd.
