This may be Trump's perfect social media post. A true work of art. He confirms:

✅He personally directs criminal investigations.
✅He is targeting opponents.
✅Epstein "records" exist and he knows the contents.

Bonus points for connecting it to investigation of his fondness for Putin.👀

NEW: Jeffrey Epstein said in emails that he had been advising the Russian government on how to deal with Donald Trump, one of several cases in which he wielded his connections to try to influence the course of foreign affairs. w @nahaltoosi

I visited Valve for a secret peek at their new Steam Frame VR headset, Steam Machine PC, and new Steam Controller. I went as photographer with @scottstein.bsky.social and Faith Chihill, and we had an enjoyable day playing the new gaming hardware that will debut in 2026. www.cnet.com/tech/gaming/...

Hi, Jean. My friend is a Nigerian prince who needs to urgently retrieve $1,000,000 from an abandoned trust from his father.

If you can wire $5,000 today, you will be entitled to 35% of the trust. Please reply at your earliest convenience.

I missed this earlier today—Trump pardoned a retired cop who was acting as a Chinese agent? What the fuck? No way he even knows who this guy is or what he did. So who’s really calling the shots here?

I can't help noticing the Supreme Court conservatives expressing the first doubt of a Trump assertion in oral arguments the day after the election day where every Republican running lost by 20 points. But they would never be swayed by such worldly things in their consideration of The Law, right?

Someone has pointed out that this equates to $100 per US soldier.

In other words: they are still going without pay, and we should wonder what this bribe is really meant to pay for.
If I’m recalling correctly, Timothy Mellon was the only MAGA donor who surpassed Elon Musk in 2024. He dropped $50m on a pro-Trump super PAC the day after Trump was convicted of dozens of felonies last year. God only knows what that has bought him.
