I have been charged in a federal indictment sought by the Department of Justice.

This political prosecution is an attack on all of our First Amendment rights. I’m not backing down, and we’re going to win.
A creepy October photo I took in 2011. Just a sweaty doll in the snow without her calvaria.

But shall this crazed old man be tamely suffered to drag a whole ship’s company down to doom with him?
I love a good villanelle. This one I return to often. I needed it today.

five days and a few hours to go and at this point I'm just gonna be shameless: if you can help signal-boost this thing, I'd be grateful. I've done very well through my own channels, but haven't had much luck breaking out beyond them.

Who the fuck wants a ballroom nowadays anyway?
I’m imprisoned by my prescription pill delivery service.
This is wild and gross, but not surprising. Money comes first.
New developments in my 3 year Epstein investigation, this time regarding JP Morgan Chase and its CEO, Jamie Dimon. This is a long thread, but worth sticking around for.
