For President's Day, Donald posted a picture of himself trying to look tough (he looked like my grandmother, but she never wore that much makeup), and this quote:

"I was the hunted. Now I’m the hunter."

Another reason to stop celebrating this holiday.

CS Monitor is still a pretty good news magazine.

TL;DR: UK, like most of Europe, is not ruled by a charismatic cult leader with dictatorial ambitions. And their leaders are not boosted by a media that feeds their cult's delusions.
When it comes to Epstein files, British politicians are finding no place to hide
The stark difference between how the Epstein files have been received in the United States versus in the United Kingdom may come down to public mood.

Sometimes when I think I want to skeet/honk/post a random brain thought (something like "I'm depressed from the news" or "I'm going to die alone") I just search it instead. The point is to remember that I'm not alone, and neither are you, with these brain thoughts.

Also, no it won't, it will just rid the system of the wealthy dirty old men who abuse it for their depraved needs and make room for a young generation.
Did Bondi say Epstein files prosecution would cause 'whole system' to collapse?
The U.S. Department of Justice released files that showed Jeffrey Epstein was in touch with celebrities, politicians and royals.

I keep thinking about Alfred Bloomingdale, the dirty old billionaire who kept a woman for sex purposes. Her attorney claimed to have tapes of them participating in a BDSM orgy with the elite of DC. She was immediately murdered.
If you old like me, you remember too.
I'm thinking about that a lot.

Someone has sure already made this observation but the fact they can convert all those empty warehouses into prison camps means they could have converted them into housing, community centers, job training centers or, hell, libraries or schools all along. It’s always a matter of will not resources.

This is what ICE does every day. Hunt little kids who are here legally. They get sent to a place called the “baby jail” in Texas. Very little of it ends up on video like this. But it’s routine. And disgusting.

A lot of people have responded to Pam Bondi saying "If we prosecute everyone in the Epstein files, the whole system collapses" (which she apparently didn't actually say, but that's another story) with "then the system DESERVES to collapse" instead of the correct answer, which is "no it wouldn't."

INBOX: Rep. Thomas Massie, who has enraged Trump for his insistence on blocking tariffs and releasing the Epstein files according to the law, just issued what is widely known among Chinese dissidents as "a declaration of no suicidal intent" (不自殺聲明), a sign of extreme distress.

PLEASE stop posting that ICE has left Minneapolis. My friends on the ground there are all saying it's bullshit. These communities still need mutual aid and help, and still need people on patrol. They still have so much to do, and your posts are threatening to kill all the momentum they have going.

I swear the Olympics broadcast producers are more interested in the athletes' families than the athletes. Or the sports.
And maybe I'm a mean old crab, but I am not delighted to learn how these kids are "home schooled" so there is no interference with their athletic training.

Seeing this in the new context of how the Epstein crime gang directed the media to spread fear over gender and sports is really something.

I and millions of Americans believe exactly the same thing Kasparov does.

Too many troops, too many new prisons, too much money not under Congressional supervision.

We're not just witnessing a mass deportation scheme anymore.

This is something significantly bigger and scarier.

A short list of nations the Epstein Crime Cartel won't be able to run off to when they are summoned by the law in whatever countries they are in:
10 countries have launched investigations related to the released Epstein files: Norway, UK, France, Lithuania, Latvia, Sweden, Australia, North Macedinia, Turkey and Poland.

Together with the investigation of the unredacted files by members of the US Congress, we must be able to get the pedophiles
