The Washington Post coverage of Epstein emails is utterly lacking. Is Bezos in there?

It’s really hard to call 23,000 documents cherry-picking.

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?

A remarkable headline from @cnbc.com www.cnbc.com/2025/11/12/t...

This is a bit of an OMG - In 2017 Trump spent his first Thanksgiving as President with Jeffrey Epstein. His best friend. bsky.app/profile/publ...

An important side note about today's Epstein/Trump revelations. They show that Todd Blanche's questioning of Maxwell was either (a) completely incompetent; or (b) intentionally crafted not to elicit facts incriminating Trump. Either way, he is not fit to serve as Deputy Attorney General.

Exactly. He should resign.

thinking about how i get anxious writing emails because i don't want to sound like a moron while larry summers is apparently typing emails like this: u kno she dint want to talk tomorrow. make me bad pheel.

“If you are an employer, and the only way to be profitable is by underpaying your staff, maybe you should not run a business.”

Jesus Christ. This email was less than a month before Helsinki

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.

Why. Were. So. Many. Men. Regularly. Emailing. Jeff. Epstein. After. He. Was. A. Known. Pedophile?

Hoping news orgs such as @theharvardcrimson.bsky.social will investigate what role, if any, other Harvard affiliates (besides Dershowitz of course) play in these emails

“.. Rep. Ro Khanna (D-Calif.), the co-sponsor of the bill with Rep. Thomas Massie (R-Ky.), told reporters Wednesday he believed ‘40 to 50’ Republicans would join Democrats in supporting the bill in the House.” @politico.com www.politico.com/live-updates...

Since this administration loves to charge people with making false statements (see, e.g., Comey, James), I assume they will be charging Maxwell for lying to Blanche and the FBI agents who interviewed her, right?

Trump’s directive to rename the Department of Defense to the Department of War could cost taxpayers up to $2 billion.

Oh …

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.

two possibilities, both impossible to dismiss: 1) The Trump White House views the Epstein files as such a threat to its survival they must be discussed in a secure room 2) Leavitt has no idea what the situation room is and thinks its just a figure of speech

The only part of this that isn’t completely known is extent of his participation. But we know her compliance with Trump wishes is the thing exchanged for upgraded accommodation.

BIG STORY: GOP senators added secret provisions to the gov’t shutdown bill to let themselves collect MILLIONS for being investigated in the Jan 6 probe. I feel like this is one of the biggest cases of public corruption in the Senate in a long time. defiance.substack.com/p/read-gop-s...

I’m so proud that @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social is our House Leader! He is holding our entire Democratic caucus together to insist the Affordable Care Act be supported in any bill to open the government. Rep Jeffries is taking no prisoners on this crucial issue!!

fresh off caving, Sen. Jeanne Shaheen is going on Fox & Friends

Americans deserve better than the eight Democratic Senators who voted on a promise, without a guarantee, to protect the Affordable Care Act.

Sen. Jeanne Shaheen revealed that Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer knew the entire time about the plan for a few Democrats to capitulate to Republicans on the government shutdown. trib.al/pQ5UPqL

Senate Dems caved and agreed to this crappy deal to get a future vote on the ACA. Well, they just got one. What are we doing here, people?

We're debating on the government funding package right now and every single Republican voted against a Democratic amendment to pass a clean, one-year extension of the ACA tax credits. Republicans just don't care about your health care.

How does the fucking WHIP betray the caucus and minority leader? I mean, isn't that grounds for immediate loss of your post. You are supposed to whip FOR the leader, not against.

Buried inside the deal to reopen government is a provision that would give Senators private right of action to sue for millions in damages over their phone records being analyzed by Jack Smith's team. news.bloomberglaw.com/us-law-week/...

Why Fox News has been so effective. You cannot undo what years of programming have achieved. It would be virtually impossible, Magas are hard wired now.

Time for @chrismurphyct.bsky.social to replace @schumer.senate.gov

It’s almost as if…our political system is not equipped to deal with a far right authoritarian party
