Based on the emails released today and what’s yet to come, I wouldn’t be surprised if Mike Johnson sends the House back on vacation until the end of time.

Kristi Noem is a horrible person.

My takeaway from every new Epstein revelation is that some powerful people victimized many powerless young women, many more knew, some actively enabled it--and we're still being told that MeToo and accountability for sexual violence have gone too far

So proud of my friend and fellow Welsh Pembroke Corgi owner @andrewfeinberg.com for asking this question: “What was the president doing with Virginia Giuffre for hours at Epstein's house?"

“Are you still talking about Epstein?” Trump keeps asking. Epstein is a “dead issue”, he says. The man stays dead but his issue is very much alive. That is because the system that protected Epstein has still not been held to account." My column. on.ft.com/43p8IhQ

A normal reaction to today's news, dear Nancy, would be to express shock and horror at the significant possibility that the president of the United States is a child molester.

An important side note about today's Epstein/Trump revelations. They show that Todd Blanche's questioning of Maxwell was either (a) completely incompetent; or (b) intentionally crafted not to elicit facts incriminating Trump. Either way, he is not fit to serve as Deputy Attorney General.

Todd Blanche would have had these emails before interviewing Maxwell. Why didn’t he question her directly about her exchanges? Why did he not follow up when she said things that were onviously a lie?? This shows that was a performance intended to dupe the public and benefit her (and Trump)

It all would have been much easier if, as would have happened if we were remotely a serious country, it all ended with the Access Hollywood interview.

Epstein On Trump - “Not one decent cell in his body…” From the Epstein drop: Feb. 8, 2017, Epstein to Larry Summers former president of Harvard University, "Recall ive told you,, -- i have met some very bad people ,, none as bad as trump. not one decent cell in his body.. so yes- dangerous."

happy epstein thermonuclear launch day to all who celebrate

Protect the children…RELEASE THE EPSTEIN FILES

Huh. Interesting

The late convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein alleged that Donald Trump knew about the girls he was trafficking, according to new emails from Epstein’s estate released by Democrats on the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee Wednesday morning.

It’s blackout time …

Full boycott guide pinned to my feed.

Approval of the way Donald Trump is managing the government has dropped sharply since early in his 2nd term, with much of the rising discontent coming from fellow Republicans. Only 33% of US adults approve of the way Trump is managing the government, down from 43% in an AP-NORC poll from March.

He just summarises all that is most wrong in the world. His wealth and the people he knows, partners, or bullies into submission have allowed him to indulge his very worst impulses and to escape any sort of retribution! It makes me want to scream in rage!

Yes he is!!!

Donald Trump is taking his last shot at overturning a $5 million jury award he was ordered to pay in 2023 after being found liable for sexually abusing & defaming E Jean Carroll.

Trump has about as much respect for The People's House as he does for the people.
