Donald Trump claims the letter to Jeffrey Epstein, complete with his drawing and signature, was fake. This is a man who sues over everything. If it were actually fake, there would’ve been an investigation and answers.

The self-proclaimed head of USAGM, Kari Lake, who this year destroyed nearly all of the Voice of America, tells the agency's few remaining journalists the White House National Security Strategy will "guide our interview subjects, story selection, and coverage going forward."

We can now group CBS in with Fox & Newsmax. They are officially state-run propaganda.

NEW: Medical License Revoked for Montana Doctor Linked to Suspicious Deaths Oncologist Thomas C. Weiner will never practice medicine in Montana again after a decision by the state medical board. A 2024 ProPublica investigation detailed how Weiner had long been suspected of hurting patients.

THIS is what I'll be watching tonight instead of the Orange Atrocity on C: BS.

It's long been known that if you do redactions improperly, someone can copy and paste redacted text and get it to appear. I recall that happening with a document we received at the Chicago Tribune more than a decade ago. The fact that the Trump regime doesn't know this is a scandal in itself. 1/2

Florida's Catholic bishops appealed to President Trump to pause immigration enforcement activities during the Christmas holidays. The White House, in response, says it would be business as usual.

jesus the Palm Beach Police really sought arrest warrants against underage Epstein victims for coming forward and cooperating, and (purported) admitting to crimes, and it caused the victims to become uncooperative with the federal investigation

This is so much worse than a case of a snotty Christian hiding behind an accusation of religious persecution to over turn a failing grade. The student knew the teacher was trans, and wrote the paper specifically to attack and insult her. And she got away with it. Welcome to America. is.gd/ykdpFW

My statement on the new Epstein documents:

“Jeffrey Epstein’s brother, Mark Epstein, told the FBI in 2023 that Epstein was murdered in his jail cell because he was about to ‘name names.’”

So for some of the Epstein docs they highlighted in black and then forgot to “print to pdf” which would have effectively flattened the formatting and stopped text being recoverable, but here we are. github.com/leedrake5/un...

“If the standard for airing a story becomes ‘the government must agree to be interviewed,’ then the government effectively gains control over the 60 Minutes broadcast. We go from an investigative powerhouse to a stenographer for the state.” www.wsj.com/business/med...

Climate activist Greta Thunberg is arrested in central London at a demonstration in support of Palestine Action hunger strikers. The Swedish activist was at the rally to support multiple members of the banned group who are currently in prison on remand and have been on strike since November 2nd.

🔥Thirty people dying in ICE custody isn’t a glitch — it’s a system built on neglect and zero accountability. If any other agency had a death toll like this, there’d be national outrage. With ICE, we’re told to look away. I won’t.🔥

PPP loans of $755 billion were forgiven, including loans to Trump Org. Students get fucked over...

Also, at university, when there was a room for the rowing club to keep their rowing machines (ergometers) The door had a sign that said "Ergo Room", to which someone had taken a Sharpie and adapted to the rather philosophical statement "Cogito Ergo Room"... 😅

Kash lied to congress.

This story is another BIG problem for the Trump admin; in Abrego Garcia's criminal case in Tennessee, evidence shows the DOJ seriously mislead the judge about the extent to which Deputy AG Blanche and his office were involved in filing the case, bolstering the case for dismissal.

“He raped me.” “Donald J Trump had raped her along with Jeffrey Epstein.” “She was found with her head ‘blown off’… there was no way it was a suicide.” Now we’re starting to see why Trump was hiding the Epstein files, and it probably gets much worse.

I want to know how murdering children squares with that "christian" ethos the perpetrators of the murders say the US must have? Because as an atheist, I know murder is wrong. www.propublica.org/article/kaku...

My grandmother, a socialite with Alzheimer's, said one of the greatest things I've ever heard. I asked what she was doing, and she responded, having no idea who I was, "Oh, I'm just sitting in a house, doing things that people do when they're sitting in houses"

The DOJ is both acting like Trump’s personal attorney and protecting co-conspirators Bondi said didn’t exist

Collecting DNA seems fine, sure it won't be misused etc www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

Wait, who's Dwigt?

I have seen DOJ do some strange redactions before, but this is up there:

Julie has been covering this longer than most. The DOJ is not following the law. #TrumpEpsteinCoverUp

Reagan sold the whole "trickle down" line of shit. Even the piss isn't trickling anymore. It was a lie right from the beginning, from Mister Voodoo Economics, Mister Union Buster, Mister Trickle Down. Mister Bullshit. Oh, and he ALSO opened the door for the religious fanatics and the fascists.

It is a myth that companies will use tax breaks to create more jobs or make long term brick and mortar or research commitments. What they do is buy back their own stock so they can artificially inflate the “value” of their companies.
