If the line isn't drawn at raping children, there is no line.

Steve Bannon performing political theater for the MAGA base, normalizing voter intimidation and openly chipping away at voting rights. Fuck off —

I wonder why Trump insults journalists who ask him about Epstein if he's innocent.

Whistleblower puts Tulsi on notice that he will go to Congress himself if her office doesn’t respond by Friday.

Yes, FBI? I’m calling to report a murder.

The dude who rented out the city of Venice for his wedding just fired a third of WAPO staff to save money. If you use or consume Amazon products you are helping an inglorious asshole become richer.

I’m sharing Aliya’s entire opening statement. We owe it to her, and those who no longer have a voice, to watch. youtu.be/zrcW8SZtYpI?...

This is the poem that Lawrence started his show off tonight

Here is the original draft federal indictment of Jeffrey Epstein for sex trafficking that was prepared by federal prosecutors in 2007, but ultimately tossed aside by Alex Acosta's office to allow Epstein to plea to a much lesser state charge. www.justice.gov/epstein/file...

What's the over/under?!

If you don't think "partying" with the most notorious pedophile in human history is illegal, then you might be a pedophile.

Not only did the cybercrime unit in Paris raid the X offices. They rubbed it in and posted on X that the X offices have been raided. Then retired their Twitter account, so their final post is that they are raiding Musk. Absolute legend. Magnifique! 🇫🇷

The only thing this map proves is that stupid people take up too much space.

SSDD. I'm sure Chuck Schumer will be on this right.......oh yeah Israel. Never mind then..

Bonus: rep john rose is now running for Governor of Tennessee 😕

Jeanine Pirro, like Hegseth was hired because she's a low-functioning drunk and Stephen Miller can easily take over without being questioned.

Article worth reading, also worth seeing if these individuals have overlapping networks www.insidehighered.com/news/faculty...

Jason Bateman (imo) is absolutely correct. Trump is nobody without his people. He can barely stand on his own. Call them out, too, just as much.

WRONG. I-205 administrative warrants are not issued by immigration judges. They’re signed by ICE officers. And EVEN IF THEY WERE issued by an immigration judge - they are executive branch employees, NOT judicial branch. JUDICIAL warrants are needed to enter a home without consent.

I'm summarizing a complex case I wrote several books about in character-limited posts. But in short: 1) he is correct to focus on /pol/ and hijacking of the internet 2) look at where that digital technology originates, particularly Israel, and the intersection with mafia and espionage. More here:

(cont) that focused on digital technology, including PROMIS and other intersections of tech, govt and espionage. This is a crisis of transnational organized crime: not only of Russia, but Israel. As the author noted, over the 21st century, white supremacists and technofascists joined the fold. (2)

This article has some good info but ignores Ghislaine Maxwell, who is as key as Epstein. She was the daughter of Robert Maxwell, an Israeli spy and Russian mafia operative. Maxwell got key mafiosos out of the USSR by providing them Israeli passports. This allowed them to build a global network (1)

If you're late to the game or just want more info do yourself a favor and listen to this interview with Mark Thompson and Sarah Kendzior. She's been sounding the alarm about the Epstein web & TOC for well over a decade.. youtu.be/x-G5wIDjZb0?...

MInnesota's restaurant community is suffering. And yet, time and time again, they are the first people to step forward and help feed the rest of our community. Because it is an industry knit together of independently owned small businesses, it's hard to know where to lend support.

The Boss

Trump said Brett Kavanaugh's confirmation was contingent on passing an FBI investigation that was actually never done. They made a movie about this called "Justice" that got a standing ovation at Cannes. I don't understand how Kavanaugh's confirmation stands.

After reading this, a better headline is “Trump and Gabbard Obstruct Whistleblower for 8 Months Citing Executive Privilege and Claiming it’s “Too Classified for Congress.”

WATCH — @mrjamesob.bsky.social : “Trump’s DOJ says they won’t release the rest of the files. Why not? Why can’t we see everything? How can someone who appears in them hundreds and hundreds of times oversee the release of the files?”

NEW: Former DOJ J6 prosecutors have drafted a four page memo advising Congress on how to investigate the murders of Alex Pretti and Renee Good absent any real probe by Trump's DOJ. www.cbsnews.com/news/capitol...

An interminable slog of airbrushed nothingness. A pernicious celebration of the "good immigrant" myth. A ghastly parade of fun-house mirror herstory, The Melania movie is an American obscenity.

GOP Rep. Thomas Massie: “How will we know if this bill has been successful? We will know when rich men are being perp walked in handcuffs to the jail. Until then, this is still a coverup.” #EpsteinFiles

NEW: This isn't about "training." The two agents who murdered Alex Pretti - Jesus Ochoa and Raymundo Gutierrez - have been with Border Patrol for 8 and 12 years respectively. You can't reform CBP. Abolish ICE/CBP. www.propublica.org/article/alex...

Y'all need to do yourselves a favor and read this interview by two excellent contributors to this platform. Also if you aren't following them both, why the hell not?

“Dear ICE agents - I hope you’re respectful to everyone and show kindness… we should treat all people the same, even if we don’t know them.” If this doesn’t shatter your heart you don’t have one. 💔 Our kids are watching. 🇺🇸 www.nytimes.com/2026/01/31/o...

Epstein survivor Lisa Phillips reacts to Todd Blanche: I’m actually shaking right now. I want to fucking cry. It makes me so sick. And he has a wedding ring on. Like, really—how does he go home to his wife. I’m looking at the files right now that shows names…

Clergyman AJ Muste was alone in front of the White House protesting the war in Vietnam. When asked if he thought he was going to change the country, he famously replied: "I don't do this to change the country, I do this so the country won't change me."

On paywalls, from THEY KNEW: "There is no longer a public sphere, but there is a public flat earth." sarahkendzior.substack.com/p/its-safe-t...

If every website removed their paywall for a week, you'd see how much of what's in the Epstein files was covered in real time. And you'd remember what actually happened in the first Trump term and how everything he's doing now was announced then. Paywalls are a massive self-inflicted wound.

They should've been indicted.

There it is — as we suspected 👇🏼

Wishing Grady Demond Wilson a blessed journey to the land of beautiful souls.

Pretty important point.

🔥 ALHAMBRA, CA: “Don’t give up. Don’t give in. Don’t let the bastards grind you down.” Original: www.instagram.com/reel/DUI-mOZ...

One name that pops up repeatedly in the Epstein files is Tancredi Marchiolo, who some claim is a partner at Bremner Capital. If this is indeed the same guy, what exactly was his relationship with Epstein? And what the hell did he mean by: “do you want me to try to do her… or just torture her”?

If you’re looking for an excellent and relevant movie to watch this weekend, I recommend skipping Melania and watching The Trial of the Chicago 7 on Netflix instead. You won’t be sorry.
