Sad trombone music for Larry, looks like he lost his BFF when Epstein was arrested the next day.
OMG this kicker in the Harvard Crimson article!!

College journalism kicks ass, again

Duncan is such an inspiration. And a badass.
a big runoff last night, in New Orleans:

Calvin Duncan was exonerated after spending *28 years* in prison; he tried to get his own case records from the New Orleans city clerk—but the office dragged its feet.

So Duncan ran to become city clerk himself, and yesterday ousted the incumbent.

Duncan, a political newcomer and former prisoner, defeated incumbent Darren Lombard by a wide margin in Saturday's runoff.

shows how weak he really is - trying to save face before they vote against him
Trump now says Republicans can vote to release the Epstein files.

He never urged Republicans to support the discharge petition. He never demanded Mike Johnson swear in Adelita Grijalva. But now, after reports indicate 100+ GOPers are planning to support their release, he caves.

@radiofreetom.bsky.social isn't for everyone but this thread is really insightful if you believe "words matter". A brief backgrounder from someone who has actually studied this for 40+ years vs. a 20-something who sees armed ICE agents in the street (horrendous) and screams fascist fascist fascist
A regime of avaricious, cruel goons isn't the same thing as a "fascist state," and the fact that they have to go to court, fight it out in state elections and legislatures, cower from being filmed (instead of filming *you*) means everything.

Recognize this. Don't surrender to your fears.

18 days before Jeffrey Epstein was found dead in his cell, he was found unresponsive in his cell.
He claimed his cell mate tried to kill him.
His then cell mate, a corrupt cop charged with four time murder is now seeking a presidential pardon.

This is real. Our govt is Tweeting like a 14 year old and calling Americans imbecilic morons. We worry about children being bullied but this is the example set by the U.S. GOVERNMENT. This is so shameful. I’m embarrassed for any of you that think this is okay or make excuses for it.

50 (and longer) mortgages are basically you just renting where the landlord (private equity mortgage debt oligarchs) has no responsibility for upkeep or fixing anything but as soon as you die the property reverts to their ownership.
a 50 year mortgage is more like debt peonage or renting from the bank. Why not 75 year mortgage?
Here's why Trump's 50-year mortgage policy is a terrible idea that will not bring down housing costs and will trap Americans in debt for generations:newsletter.ofthebrave.org/p/heres-why-...

Everyone should follow @revdrmichaelwoolf.bsky.social - he has acted in righteous and moral ways that all of us should strive to attain whatever religion you follow, if any.
I wanted to share probably the most important sermon I’ve given and it’s while I’m being arrested. It’s torture pure and simple what happens at #Broadview. I’m ok, though I was thrown to the ground and choked with my pectoral cross. A review of the video shows I was peaceful - did I deserve this?

Wife: It is interesting that the biggest papers and networks burned decades of hard work by others who built up their brands to bend over immediately for Donald Trump because they thought he would be a successful dictator and 10 months in he's flailing. Those people have the worst business instincts

quite a hill to die on this late in the war
Dershowitz: The predecessor on your show described Epstein as a convicted pedophile. 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.

Understandable why people on Martha's Vineyard are not warm to Dershowitz
To be very clear, Virginia Giuffre was made to say she mistakenly identified Alan Dershowitz as one of the people who sexually abused her. Here is the proof from this week's Epstein files dropped by the House Oversight Committee.

Odd that the DoJ is opening an investigation into the Epstein files since they said in July that there was no client list and nothing to release.

Trump should release all of the Epstein files: every person and every document in the files.

I will do everything in my power going forward to advocate for the release of the files, to get justice for Epstein’s victims, and to promote the values of truth our great country was founded on.

Great read. Great work. Free Link. I never appreciated how deeply Republicans embraced Nazis and fascists over the years. I wish I and many other had - perhaps we would not be where we are today.

In December 2018, Epstein wrote about Trump: “I am the one able to take him down.”
Eight months later, Epstein was found dead in a prison run by the Trump administration.
Weird coincidence.
