I think this is such thoughtful commentary on what has been revealed in the Epstein emails, and what role Epstein played for so many of these powerful, wealthy men. Sped up to fit:

This is me at 15. I’m a child. I’m a CHILD.

“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

The White House shutdown of Voice Of America has opened the door to propaganda by Russian and Chinese influencers in countries from Africa to Asia. www.press.org/newsroom/voa... #SaveVOA

This Epstein thing has his malignant narcissism dialed up to 10.

Ahem. It's the job of the President to appoint DAs - with advice and consent from the Senate. The President can ignore that rule - but only once (per district) and only for 120 days. Do you know who appoints DAs after the 120 day mark has passed? Pam Bondi doesn't. Because it's the judiciary.

Don’t break up on social media, kids. It’s just plain rude.

What a photograph. “Nearly two dozen arrested as faith leaders protested outside a federal immigration facility near Chicago…” Arrested large amounts of peaceful clergy face first on pavement is a pretty good sign you’re not the good guys in the story. www.reuters.com/legal/govern...

"300 agents stormed the building, rappelled from a helicopter, knocked down doors and hurled flash-bang grenades. Agents ziptied and detained many US citizens for hours..." Prosecutors have not filed a *single* criminal charge against anyone arrested that night: www.propublica.org/article/chic...

Billionaires are more publicly involved in politics than ever—and Americans aren’t loving it.

She is SO right, and that makes me so sad for this country.

It’s been a year to the day we bought (and then didn’t, for reasons we still don’t fully know) InfoWars. We’re still trying. In the year since, we built The Onion into one of the biggest newspapers in the United States. I’m so proud of this place. I’m proud we do hard stuff. Thank you for caring.

Hey Megyn Kelly, 14-year-old Eloise would like a word: “If my voice makes you uncomfortable, good… because the minute adults start defending predators by defending the age of a child, you’re not protecting the truth, you’re protecting the predator.” Sound up! 🔥🔊 1/2

The president of the most powerful nation on Earth is so terrified of the tales that an imprisoned sex trafficker can tell that he plies her with a comfort puppy and custom meals and is holding out the prospect of a pardon. 77 million people voted for this.

“Quiet! Quiet!” 😬

Starbucks’ CEO makes 6,666x what the average @sbworkersunited.org barista does. It would take less than one day of sales to finalize a fair contract. Baristas at Starbucks corporate stores nationwide are on strike to fight this corporate greed and get the fair contract they deserve.

Burns: The Old Testament says there’s nothing new under the sun. On July 4th, 1776, there was. Everybody up to that point had been under authoritarian rule. It was in the interests of their rulers that they be uneducated, that they be superstitious, that they be distracted by conspiracies…

Remember: The richest 1% evade over $160 billion in taxes every year. That amount would fund SNAP for a year with money to spare. Ask yourself who the real freeloaders are.

Yikes 😬 an official U.S. government account just referred to Americans as “imbecilic morons.” That’s… a choice.

In normal times, it would be a major scandal for the President to direct his AG to criminally investigate his political opponents to deflect from his own involvement in a major scandal — and for the AG to immediately announce she is doing it. The Epstein scandal and cover up just got even bigger.

Fact-check: true 😕

Increase in productivity since 1979: 87% Increase in hourly pay since 1979: 32% Just so happens that ~25% of workers were unionized in 1979. Today? 10%. As unions declined, the super-rich have taken a larger share of wealth generated by labor. We must build back union power.

This is fire 🔥 Representative Brown from Ohio.

He can call it a hoax all he wants. The Epstein files are sticking to Trump like a bad rash that he will never get rid of. This is brilliant 🏆

Retired Chicago reporters: "our colleagues... have shown you a brutal and illegal campaign against fellow Chicagoans, mainly Latinos: violent abductions, gutting families, using tear gas around children, roughing up witnesses, ramming cars and even taking a day care teacher from her school."

Just a reminder, the coward who refused to accept an election loss in 2020 and then committed crimes trying to overthrow that election will certainly cheat, abuse his powers, and break the law to try to win the 2026 & 2028 elections. He’s a real threat to democracy. Believe it.

We inherited” is the new “but her emails.” They take responsibility for nothing. Who deported workers in the food production industry? Who imposed massive tariffs on finished goods, agricultural products. and raw materials? Who promised to lower prices “on day one”?

Not so sure the White House is going to be too happy with this ratio over at the other place

THIS IS COMPLETELY UNACCEPTABLE -- SUE THE SHIT OUT OF THEM. ICE MUST GO. 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬

"The reason why this is of concern, is—he's the president of the United States, he's been found in another case by a civil jury to have been liable for sexually abusing a woman in a department store, he's a convicted felon, and he's had dozens of women accuse him of sexual abuse."

Surprise, surprise. I'm glad the ICC has finally said something about this.

Former NYT reporter Landon Thomas, Jr.: Its getting scary. The stories you could tell... Epstein: Wow Thomas: Actually I don't think he/voters would care. Being effectively shameless is a pretty powerful weapon for a presidential candidate. Epstein: But by being a phony rich person

@repdangoldman.bsky.social is the best. We need more members of Congress like him. 👏👏👏

So dark. www.nytimes.com/2025/11/13/u...

He's undoubtedly planning the Mother of all Distractions but can't think of anything to top flying over a city in a crown dropping poo on American citizens.

Hypocrite

That part‼️

You realize his guilt when the most litigious guy on the planet isn’t making lawsuit threats.

For years they droned on about “the Deep State” - a powerful cabal that controlled everything. Then they set their sights on “the Epstein list” - a powerful cabal that preyed on children. (Spoiler: it’s the same cabal) Now they’re in power, guess who is protecting this cabal? They are. Odd.

Public media. Let's keep it that way.

The soft pedaling language being used to describe the men in the Epstein files is enraging. They didn’t “have sex with underage girls”. They raped them. Sex implies consent. The survivors deserve better than this. Use the correct language. Say what these men did.

Attacking a federal district judge as an “activist” for issuing a lawful ruling is an assault on judicial independence. A democracy cannot function when executive agencies denigrate judges for doing their jobs.

Can we just take a minute and acknowledge that our POTUS is right OUT IN THE OPEN lobbying Congressional members to vote against releasing the Epstein files?! Like... what the fuck else does anyone even need to know?
