Alan Dershowitz is one of those claiming Epstein was not a pedophile because he pleaded guilty to one count of having sex for money with a 17-year-and-10-month-old person. "That’s not a pedophile." See this important response from Julia Brown, the brave reporter who broke the news on this

Lots of people sharing this clip because it's funny and cathartic but I also genuinely believe it's important.

We have to win the narrative battle between "I live in a corrupt society and that's just how it is" and "I live in a corrupt society and we are going to defeat and humiliate these ghouls."
Good morning to Brazilian reporter Manuela Borges, who’s been waiting eleven years for this petty moment. ❤️ 🇧🇷

This is the scandal. Trump isn’t targeting dangerous people. He’s targeting peaceful immigrants. Almost exclusively.

...absolutely no one else has any interest in or record of invading Ukr but Ru, this opposition is nothing but a clear tell that Ru absolutely intends to invade Ukraine a third time. No one should be blind to this reality.

Ru's vehement opposition to security guarantees for Ukr (NATO membership or foreign troops) extends to asking for veto power over any future decisions by anyone to help Ukraine in the event of a future attack. That's what they asked for in Istanbul in March 2022. Since...

Russian asset Ron Johnson says there’s no money to give Americans $2K inflation checks. But there is money for a despot’s $250M ballroom and enough to give $40B to Argentina’s dictator.

I’ll always remember Ron paying Putin a visit in Moscow on July 4th weekend in 2018.

It never ends with this fash pack!
After Trump's plot with Bolsonaro to bust him out of jail and get him to the US failed, Brazilian authorities accelerated the process for him to begin serving his 27-year sentence. Bolsonaro was ordered today to begin serving jail time tomorrow. www.washingtonpost.com/world/2025/1...
Bolsonaro out of appeals, will start 27-year sentence for coup attempt
The former Brazilian president will begin his sentence in a specially prepared cell at federal police headquarters in Brasília.

We went from US media once attacking President Biden over his age and condemning President Obama for daring to wear a tan suit in the briefing room to them actively normalizing a criminal for over a decade as he threatens to murder Democrats. They deliberately failed democracy.

There is NO FUCKING EXCUSE for this to be happening.

I had a baby die in my arms of pertussis some fifty years ago. It was a HORRIBLE death. But my fellow nurses said to me, "It's almost stamped out now, they're all getting the shots, we won't be seeing this again."

HOW THE FUCK ARE WE HERE. 😡
A third infant has died in Kentucky, KYDPH adds:

“These are Kentucky’s first pertussis deaths since 2018. None of the infants nor their mothers received the recommended pertussis vaccinations during pregnancy or early infancy.”

To the reckless media that claims there will be some deal signed in DC “later this week”, PLEASE turn your brains on (just for a moment, it won’t hurt, I promise), and realize that Trump is departing DC today to be gone until Sun night with no events in between, and Putin began a visit to Kyrgyzstan

Ru proposed 28 points aiming to build on them and get even more. Instead, push back by Ukraine, Europe, and US public opinion + Senators has likely watered down some of the points, making it likely that Ru will reject the plan it initiated itself. The Trump admin will look like the chumps they are.

An ICE agent was caught removing a sign marking an ICE kidnapping in DC last week! Do we think he did it out of anger, embarrassment, or most appropriately shame? If you think what you’re doing is right, why are you trying to hide the evidence? 👀

If you’re seeing these, know that they are showing proof that much MUCH of the rightwing propaganda we are seeing is from abroad. Know also that this has been the case since 2016. The public square has been turned into a superfund site.

Loved this single from the moment I heard it when it first came out. I was already a massive Roddy Frame fan AND a Mick Jones (Clash/ B.A.D.) fan.
