Jeffrey Epstein advised Steve Bannon that the lawyers representing Brett Kavanaugh in his confirmation hearing should accuse Christine Blasey Ford of being on medications that cause false memories or memory loss.

I just walked out of federal court where I pleaded NOT GUILTY to the charges against me. I will continue to stand up to authoritarianism and call this out for what it is: a political prosecution.

Reminder that just because you’re a rival of James Watson the Nobel-winning prick doesn’t mean that you’re a good guy (EO Wilson)

How many fucking Harvard faculty did this guy know

Researcher watch, let’s see: we got EO Wilson. We got Summers, who is probably Larry Summers. We got Chomsky (☹️). And of course: Nathan could be my colleague and long-ago coauthor Nathan Wolfe, who thanks Jeff in his book and has some pictures with Ghislaine circulating online :)

Shoutout to all the 80s Catholic kids who loved this song and believed it was a pious song about being like the Virgin Mary.

This clutch of fucks… we literally put a sex-crime ring at the center of global power. Utter madness.

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?

At a minimum, it's time to give NYT the same treatment that's been given to Target. Unfortunately, that means it's time for people to cancel their crossword and Wordle subscriptions.

I dunno about Trump but I sure hope these emails take down the NYT

the biggest lesson from the emails today is that powerful people are so unafraid of consequences for crimes as bad as “raping children” that they will just talk about it openly in emails the only path to a better society is one where that is no longer true

There were thousands of people who knew, between the men who did the raping & the assistants, drivers, travel agents, & bank officers who facilitated it. Thousands. If adults know not to let their daughter anywhere near specific men, there's no cover-up. There's no conspiracy. There's complicity.

They didn't cover it up; they giggled about it.

What if I were to tell you that it wasn't a decades-long conspiracy to cover things up but a decades-long conspiracy to ensure people didn't get in trouble for wickedness that was the biggest open secret on the Eastern seaboard. And whatever DJT is doing now, he was winking & nodding about it then.

QANON CULTIST IN 2017: "In this 1,879 page thread I will unravel the byzantine system of codewords and phrases the global elite use to mask their pedophile cabal." JEFFREY EPSTEIN WRITING AN EMAIL AT THE SAME TIME: "helo its me jeff had fun cmmitting sex crimes wit u lst weeknd"

QAnon: The powerful pedophiles have invented elaborate codes to secretly discuss their crimes that require decades of interpretation Actual powerful pedophile: Hey Jeff hope this email find you well last week was great so when we meeting up to do pedophilia again

To summarize this thread:

this dude is going to turn out to have such a massive drug problem

MAJOR BREAKING: Adelita Grijalva is now a member of Congress

AOC: "It is unconscionable that what we are debating right now is legislation that will give 8 senators over $1 million a piece & we're robbing people of their food assistance & healthcare to pay for it. How can we vote to enrich ourselves by stealing from the American people?"

I wish on the couch fucker the most painful of migraines.

Honestly how are pharma companies not allowed to sue these people into the ground. I'm really asking.

The obvious connection here is that Maxwell’s father basically built the scientific publishing industry. So I’m sure she retained many connections or easily made inroads of her own to put them in Epstein’s orbit (which Epstein clearly valued).

Yup: www.wired.com/story/jeffre...

Maxwell also backed a huge number of ocean conservation initiatives and gave a TED Talk about ocean conservation. She used the ocean world for reputation laundering the same where Epstein used prestige science.

Epstein and Maxwell funded and were on the board of Seed Media Group, which created and ran Science Blogs. The Science Blogs. The premier network of science communicators.

Yes, everyone who is fighting fascism needs to be united in fighting fascism. But the need to be united to fight fascism is the opposite of being united with people folding to fascism.

Ironic that christofascists are the ones suppressing Christian worship… Hmm almost like they aren’t Christian at all and just using Jesus as their Trojan horse for ushering fascism.

He doesn’t even wriggle! He makes some dementia-addled word salad statements, his allies protect him, and mainstream journalists shrug and translate his nonsense into something that sanitizes it.

again i am perfectly fine with locking every one of Jeffrey Epstein's friends in prison, Democrat, Republican or Whatever.

There has to be more work that explores race, class and eugenics among the late 20th century and 21st century wealthy elites, imo. Sure, rich elites think they’re ‘innately’ superior but I’m interested in the social, political, intellectual and financial work they’ve been doing to promote eugenics.

Our editorial stance is kidnappings are bad. This is not Real Journalism because it's important to be neutral about atrocities

Also, we could have listened to his victims back in 2015. There’s nothing in the Epstein files that could be as powerful and convincing as victim’s own first-hound accounts, but our society refuses to listen and punished them for speaking their truth.

finding joy despite the world in 2025 is like this lol

Federal Plaza, 2:30 PM. See you there.

I’m watching the livestream of Jane Goodall’s memorial, and since the camera is panning over the people in the pews, I’m looking intently to see if I spy my friend who is there… but alas no luck.

Also, it's telling that an email from Epstein counts as "increasingly direct evidence" and not, you know, the testimony of the victim herself.

When will people understand that Trump raping minors and Trump knowing about the rape of minors is actually an asset in the eyes of the Republican Party and a large swath of the Democratic leadership?

Delusional. We knew he himself raped a minor back in 2016. We’ve been saying publicly that he should resign yada yada for the last ten years. It hasn’t made a difference. We need to reckon with the moment we’re actually in, not the moment we wish we were in.

Imagine if the public and media would have just believed victims back in 2015 instead of harassing them into silence and suicide.

Kinda fun that the endgame of QAnon was turning the government over to pedophiles

“The President sent his lawyer to negotiate a settlement with a convicted sex trafficker to provide cushy accommodation in exchange for her silence on his participation in said sex trafficking” is a cold description of the facts of an insane story that the media doesn’t find worthy of scrutiny

the only thing democrats should be saying today is “the entire republican party is engaged in a coverup of the most notorious child sex trafficking ring in world history”

its 9 am and so far today we have learned that jeffrey epstein was advised to blackmail donald trump who spent lots of alone time with children at epsteins house

I would also just like to remind everyone that we ALREADY know, before any more of his horrific actions are reported, that donald trump is an adjudicated rapist.

Simple reinstatement of Sarah Kendzior isn’t enough at this point: 1. Reinstatement; 2. Investigation and disclosure of what caused the suspension; and 3. Transparent, clear, specific and public rules about how accounts are suspended.

If Sarah Kendzior is indeed blocked on @bsky.app, this is a completely unjustified and highly questionable move. Sarah Kendzior is among the best voices of knowledge-based critical journalism in the US. See to it that this is corrected immediately and with an apology, @pfrazee.com!

Bluesky suspended Sarah Kendzior today for no reason whatsoever. She just shared excerpts of her articles, which were as always incisive and not offensive at all. Hey @pfrazee.com this is super not OK. I know her- we've interacted a fair bit via chats and her work is essential.

Sleddogs and northern lights - the ultimate combo. Also I wonder which dog that is 🤔🤣
