Re: Epstein’s emails

Pedocon theory remains undefeated

Apropos of nothing - does anyone remember Girls Gone Wild?

I grew up in the 90s, graduated HS in 2005 and this was very much part of mainstream culture. Like practically every other girl out there, grown-ass men hit on me when I was a teenager and this was considered normal. Or least, understood in this way.

He should have never been the nominee bc there is no world where he was ever remotely qualified to be POTUS but I see your point. It may have ended there if it weren't for Comey.

As I wrote, elite lawlessness also proves out the basic premise of Trumpism, which is that all of governance is finally just rich creeps doing whatever they want, whenever they want; the degeneracy of the people doing it, and what they do, is a self-perpetuating thing. defector.com/kingdom-of-t...

*Screams into the void*

1. i hope something comes of the epstein thing for the sake of the victims 2. i'm sensibly skeptical 3. i'm a little put off by how giddy everyone is in a way that has nothing to do with the victims 4. no one with history should see phrases like "child rape" this often 5. idek what to mute

Grab em by the pussy should have been the end of it but here we are

Pedocon theory remains undefeated

What's already PUBLICLY KNOWN is incredibly damning but sure, these new files are sure to make Trump's base turn on him.

Thank you so much voters

All you dipshits have no idea how hard it will be to rebuild what has been destroyed virtually overnight. It's not like a video you can just pause. Fuck every last one of you that voted for Trump or "just couldn't vote for Harris". Fuck you, you have no moral high ground and I wish you no peace.

"According to an analysis from the Princeton-affiliated REPEAT Project, his administration’s actions have already erased all the future emission declines set in motion during Biden’s term." GREAT JOB VOTERS, THANK YOU SO MUCH! www.theatlantic.com/magazine/202...

Lmao, everyone is about to find out the hard way on that one

instead of saying this was good strategy, maybe senate dems should say: "the republicans were going to kill people by starving them to death, and because we aren't monsters, we decided to let this fight go. We'll keep fighting. Stop electing monsters."

Well I've never died from unsafe food or know anybody who has, checkmate libs! No one ever died from lack of safety regulations!

They do not. A whole lot of invisible systems that America took for granted are now piles of ash. Great job voters, thank you so much.

Elections have consequences. Voters wanted Republicans to control the federal government so here we are. There is no magic button. There are no good options, only bad and worse. What was the endgame here? What was the alternative?

Well maybe voters shouldn't have handed the federal government to reactionary nihilists but once again, only Dems have agency.

I have long said that Gen X is the worst generation www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

It's everyone, everywhere. Not just the Bluesky left. It's legacy press, beltway way press, pundits, local press, everyone. Only Dems have agency.

Yes but millions of voters, mostly white ones, choose this in every election, year after year

Unironically this for the median Trump voter

Too few people realize that our public health apparatus has been decimated and what could be taken for granted is no longer. Everyone is about to find out the hard way that a functioning state is Good Actually

these assholes made a payment processing website or “invented” 2 day shipping or made Hot or Not 2 and so we gave them all our money and put them in charge of tech? make it make sense…these guys are “right place right time” and nothing more to it than that and now they have all our money

Elections have consequences. No, that doesn't mean that I think anyone deserves to suffer; only that the people who voters handed the federal government to said they would do this. abcnews.go.com/US/insane-ac...

Thank you so much voters

I will vote for anyone who vows to aggressively investigate and prosecute Musk.

Shoutout to everyone who just had to vote for Trump for "the economy"

Well yes but blowing people up is just so much more fun! /s

Wait, Mamdani was born in 1991 which makes him unquestionably a millennial. I've seen "Gen Z mayor" and what?? Not even close. The brain-rotted TikTok generation does not get to claim him!

Same thing for climate, vaccines, pandemic preparedness, etc. Thank you so much voters. Glad to see you have buyers remorse but the damage has been done. Oh, and the lives destroyed by the immigration policies and mass firings of civil servants.

A hollow victory. The destruction in the past 10 months will take decades to fix, if it can be fixed at all. And you can't bring back the dead.

This is the way

Right wing reactionaries are OBSESSED with this. Along this same line, I swear they want low income people to wear burlap sacks.

So many people were detained extrajudicially, were tortured, or died because of Dick Cheney. You can't get to the danger we're in now without everything he did. The weapons he helped forge are ones we need to take away from U.S. presidents forever.

Mike Johnson: ‘My Christian Faith Is More About Not Jacking Off Than Feeding The Poor’

it's time for journos to start asking Johnson meta questions "Speaker, on 5 occasions last week you said 'I haven't seen it' when asked about news events w/big implications for public policy. Do you ever read the news, and do you agree it's problematic for the Speaker to be so woefully uninformed?"

Propaganda works. Americans think that Republicans are better for the economy, even though all available evidence from the past 40 years shows the exact opposite. And yet.

Exactly. I don't think anyone has more contempt for the American electorate than I do.

What a timeline!

From the available reporting and other information, yes, I think this is it exactly.

If only there had been some warning before the election. Oh well!

The 80s called, it wants its racist talking points back

I feel bad for JD Vance's children. Imagine being children with mixed race heritage and having a vile, gutter racist as a father. And Usha, c'mon, have some self-respect and divorce him (Yes she's also awful & deserves no benefit of the doubt but like c'mon, for your kids at least).

Wheeeeeew we're so cooked

Alright. Today’s the day. Who’s giving out the edibles for Halloween? Do I need a code word to get the edibles instead of the regular candy? Is that how it works?

The disdain for expertise will continue to kill people.
