One of the biggest questions in politics right now with a pretty high likelihood is “did the President rape a child?” and it’s a question the media has zero interest in answering. It is only interested in this topic obliquely as a story about DoJ evidentiary compliance.

US justice department accused of withholding Trump-related Epstein files

Trump says he’s releasing alleged UFO files. Seems like a big distraction for the files that really matter…the Epstein files. Catch my latest Weekend Video on Substack for the full breakdown: substack.com/@adamkinzinger/p-188673493

"What one finds in the partisan braying of Tuesday night is the same sentiment articulated when Jonathan Ross called Renee Good a 'fucking bitch' after putting a bullet in her head." Good @aselrod.bsky.social piece drawing through line from ICE brownshirts to Trump's GOP collaborators in Congress:

🇺🇸 🏒 Captain hilary knight : “The joke was distasteful & unfortunate— Now I have to sit in front of you and explain someone else's behavior. It's not my responsibility… It’s a great teaching point to really shine light on how women should be championed for their amazing feats.”

We have a cost of living emergency in America. And what was Donald Trump's response? He mocked Americans and the term "affordability."

26 February 1907 | An Italian Jew, Giaccomo Antigoli, was born in Rome. He arrived at #Auschwitz on 23 October 1943 in a transport of 1,035 Jews deported from Rome. He did not survive. --- 🎧/📖 The development of the mass murder infrastructure at Auschwitz: https://bit.ly/46ryjrT

Canada is never going to forgive murica for enthusiastically electing this madman and pointing him at us. A country we once called friend, an ally. All of that is dead now, every fucking day more and more hate and abuse coming from the Nazi regime south of our border. #FuckAmerica

After his one-night stand with the hockey team, Trump moves to punish America’s hockey factory state. www.startribune.com/white-house-...

In Homeland Security's latest act of indecency, it's seizing crayons from children who dare to draw what their life is like in immigration detention.

Nurul Amin Shah Alam, a nearly blind refugee from Burma who Border Patrol agents dropped off at a doughnut shop Thursday and left to find his way home, 5 miles away, has been found dead. His family was not notified of his release. Police are investigating.

Yes, This Latest Trump Revelation Out of the Epstein Files Seem Big talkingpointsmemo.com/edblog/yes-t...

To the Democratic Party. We do not want Kamala Harris or Gavin Newsom We want an anti genocide candidate raise minimum wage universal healthcare living wage affordable housing lower college tuition Doesn’t take money from AIPAC or Corporations Abolishes ICE These are nonnegotiable

Dr Oz demands that Tim Walz and the state of Minnesota audit every healthcare provider who gets Medicaid funds in Minnesota "to make sure they're supposed to be able to be providing these services" -- or Minnesota won't get funds Congress has appropriated for the state

Whether or not we actually successfully seat the winners of the elections in November will tell us a lot about the likelihood of some sort of Civil War. Having it occur peacefully isn’t dispositive, but if it doesn’t the likelihood goes way way up.

KHANNA: “A blatant violation of the law. These files should have been released… while the rest of the world is prosecuting them, in 🇺🇸 we’re sitting on our hands.” @khanna.house.gov tells @krystalball.bsky.social the DOJ deleting files re: allegations of Trump abusing minors is illegal.

Why can't we have recaps like this in the United States

Thank you AOC for not sitting for the garbage SOTU from the Convicted FElon.

If the Italy trip wasn’t personal travel… does that mean he’s partying with athletes on the taxpayer dime? Shouldn’t the Director of the FBI be a little more focused on urgent priorities, like sex trafficking or Nancy Guthrie’s kidnapping?

the confidence of men who have contributed absolutely nothing to society in passing judgment about the intelligence of entire groups of people will never stop amazing me. bsky.app/profile/jess...

hard to think of a reason every dem politician with a spine wouldn't run exactly this sort of naming contest in their city/state and let voters take care of the rest

By the way, what do these people want us to DO? We’re constantly insisting on concrete lists of demands of “theories of change” from protesters. What do these people suggest we do about their gullibility and callousness? Or is this just another trip to the zoo? www.nj.com/mosaic/2026/...

No way in hell Trump swept all the swing states. newrepublic.com/post/206857/...

I’m on this website because 1. I have fun here and the vast majority of my friends are here and 2. posting my little jokes on here does not benefit Zartog the Heart-Eater Who Feasts on Screams, unlike Threads or X/Twitter

Dear god is he stupid.

putting what now?

There’s a fundamental divide on social media these days between “those who primarily view it as a broadcast medium” and “those who primarily view it as a way to talk to people,” and I’m very much the latter - as are most people on this website.

Katyal: "Here's the problem for Donald Trump: his DOJ, in our case, filed briefs to the courts that said Section 122 is inapplicable and the president can't use it. So now he's turned around & he's gonna have to somehow argue against his own DOJ's interpretation of the statute. I think that's tough"

recall that they too are mortal

“Just five days after Jeffrey Epstein’s arrest in the summer of 2019, federal authorities ‘directed’ NYPD to ‘stand down’ its investigations related to Epstein, new documents released by the Department of Justice show. …” Part of this comprehensive new Timeline by @rgoodlaw.bsky.social

WATCH: “He’s a narrative breaker… they hear about ‘demoncrats’ & baby-eating & sodomy - then they see an interview with @jamestalarico.bsky.social and he’s like TikTok Mr. Rogers.” Tennessee’s own @traecrowde on why Trump & the GOP are afraid of Talarico — (Bonus: in a holler hat🧢🔥)

It can still go down further. I honestly don’t think he cares. He’s draining the treasury. He just gave his ‘Bored of Peace’ 10 billion dollars of taxpayer money. Where is the oversight. It’s ridiculous what he is getting away with. And destroying the economy and environment as well.

Crucial to underscore that a key driver of Trump's cratering approval is that he has thrown away the traditional GOP advantage on *both* the economy *and* immigration. He's deeply underwater on both. That's highly unusual for a GOP president: newrepublic.com/article/2068...

Time for some "Who gave the stand down order?" hearings!

If retailers raised prices during tariffs, that doesn’t create a liability to each customer—it creates profit (or covers costs). So if or when tariff refunds arrive, the default outcome is: firms recoup, shoppers don’t. Bottom line: You aren't getting a penny back.

ICYMI: A trio of bills making their way through the Maryland legislature would give the state new tools to resist federal immigration detention — if they can beat “crossover.” More in the story below.

Just 253 days until the 2026 Midterm Elections on November 3!!!

Trump’s clean energy war ultimately hurts red states, says American Clean Power Association board chair David Carroll. "There's nearly half a million people that are directly employed by the clean energy industry," he tells Politico Energy podcast. 🎧 Full interview: politico.com/podcasts/energy

‼️‼️‼️ Renee Good did NOT deserve to have her brains blown out in front of her dog for not complying with armed vigilantes who were terrorizing HER community. You simply arrest, fine and release. YOU DO NOT MURDER! ARREST ICE AGENT ROSS NOW ‼️‼️‼️

PSA: If you attacked Newsom for being *racist* for saying he’s a bad test-taker in Georgia when he said the same thing to Charlie Kirk👇🏽 (stay tuned for receipts), but you didn’t say shit about Trump’s actually racist Obama apes video, you’re telling on yourself.
