Can we circle back to the part where the NY Times never disclosed that they have incriminating information on Donald Trump from sent by Epstein that's been sitting on their email servers for nearly a decade?

To recap: Jeffrey Epstein offered a NY Times reporter photos taken in Epstein's kitchen of Donald Trump and girls in bikinis *and* implored the NYT reporter to put this information in the public discourse in 2015 What did the NY Times editors know about this offer?

As all this disgusting Epstein shit starts surfacing more and more, I hope we don't lose sight of the fact that apparently every major media outlet knew everything and instead spent their time money and energy attacking the trans community.

Morgan Freeman is taking legal action over AI clones of his voice “I'm a little pissed off... don’t mimic me with falseness. I don’t appreciate it and I get paid for doing stuff like that, so if you’re gonna do it without me, you're robbing me” (Source: www.theguardian.com/film/ng-inte...)

WE CAN STILL WIN! yellat.money

like, why would any democrat compromise with the GOP right now? you have a once in a millennium upper hand. every member of trump’s admin who opened that file is complicit. go after them. open investigations. have hearings. say it on the news every night. do something other than roll over for once.

every tiny crumb that leaks out is a career ending bombshell and we’re all just supposed to go on with our lives while our elected representatives shrug and tell us there’s nothing to be done about the president’s involvement in a child sex trafficking operation

UBI works, 4 day work week works, universal healthcare works. Fighting homelessness costs more than giving homes, fighting welfare fraud costs more than just allowing it. Meanwhile the Rich get more Richer while the Poor get Poorer.

who’s gonna tell him

Ghislaine Maxwell lied about Trump never going to Epstein's house (directly contradicted by her email correspondence with Epstein), and she was rewarded for that lie with a transfer to a cushier prison. The coverup is happening in plain sight.

make so many calls that their phones puke blood

Politico is very dry (which I am fine with) but sometimes their header to cover photo is just so good lmao

Und so kommt die Arbeitspflicht schleichend. Erst für Asylsuchende, dann für unter 25-Jährige – erst nur in Thüringen und als Nächstes wo und für wen?

Honestly if there's any job that can be done by an unthinking, unfeeling machine with an error rate of 60%, it's whatever soulless bullshit happens at private equity firms lol

"This use of GenAI is fine because VAs signed contracts to relinquish their rights". Well yeah, have you seen what happens to those who don't want to sign off on this? Can you really call that consent when the alternative is losing (or never getting) a job?

It's all true... but the style of this meme is breaking my brain a bit.

15+ years old, but still VERY relevent — and if we had acted 15 years ago, the “better world” we’d be creating would be a LOT better & easier to reach. There are real consequences we’re just starting to see to not heeding this cartoon a lot sooner. Even worse if we don’t heed it now. #ClimateCrisis

Ppl need to understand what's happening here. The GOP response to the shutdown was: You're gonna cave, or we're going to hurt vulnerable people by shutting off SNAP. The Dems, unwilling to let that happen, caved. Having watched that, the GOP is now saying: "Give us what we want on abortion or ..."

Going through my father’s things I found my grandmother’s report card, circa April 1916. She got a poor mark in “deportment,” which is what they called “Social emotional growth” then. Her parents were probably mad — at the mark, not at the concept of deportment, because they weren’t morons.

You think we're stupid? You greenlit this deal. If you couldn't stop Dems from breaking away, then you don't deserve to be the leader.

You can still call your Senators, regardless of how they voted, and tell them you want someone else as minority leader/minority whip.

They’re manufacturing inevitability. This goose is nearly cooked.

mhm mhm

What radicalised you? My Dutch neighbour: "Just seeing liberalism prove time and time again to be utterly incapable of solving all the problems I care about. Once I started to learn history from Socialist sources, it became obvious that liberalism is just fascism with plausible deniability."

Hey you know what happened to the head of the German police after the end of World War II? Give you a hint: it starts with an "h" and rhymes with "banged."

That character is the intermediate version of this one.

this is literally never not accurate

The aging president raged about Illinois' “Miracle Mile,” threatening to deploy troops to Chicago over a shopping center that does not exist.

The finale of the great TV comedy show Blackadder goes Forth. Back then I didn't expect one of the funniest programmes ever to end with a scene that makes me cry every time I see it. Every single time.

President Donald Trump said he didn’t need to raze the White House’s East Wing to build his tacky new ballroom—yet he did it anyway.
