“Nearly a month before President Donald Trump met Russian leader Vladimir Putin in Helsinki in 2018, Jeffrey Epstein attempted to pass a message to Russia’s top diplomat: If you want to understand Trump, talk to me.”

“Hm. Really.”

Now, it’s a headline that Trump knew about the girls…. They all knew about the girls, & every Thiel & Summers & the con artist formerly known as Prince Andrew knew they’d bought more security with a U.S. president who shared their “wonderful secret”.’
Epstein’s emails are the end of America as they ruined it
If the evil banality of the world's most powerful people exposed in the Epstein emails doesn't cause a revolution, nothing will.

You should watch this report by Scott Pelley of @60minutes.bsky.social — while more of a synopsis of the earlier reporting on this utterly corrupt pardon of Binance’s founder as the Trumps feather their fetid nest, bringing it all together makes for a powerful indictment.

At the moment, the official voice of the US government is a rancid mixture of trolling, cruelty, propaganda, and crass jokes about the human suffering they’re creating.
The official voice of the US government is cruel, gross, and weird. What is that doing to us?

The Trump regime has blown up 21 boats and murdered 83 people without providing any evidence that they were doing anything wrong. If this keeps up, their next step will be to blow up Americans too. You watch. And they won't provide any evidence that the Americans were doing anything wrong either.

reminded of eric williams's observation about britain's relationship to its history with slavery. "British historians wrote almost as if Britain had introduced Negro slavery solely for the satisfaction of abolishing it."

As I often mention, the Republican platform is simple: they want to sexually abuse children, and they want you to pay for it. Since they rhetorically frame that as a return to an idealized past (“great again”), the NYT naturally has to frame systematic child sexual abuse as “the good old days”.

Today, Democrats have uncovered more damning Epstein + Maxwell correspondence on Trump.

“The dog that hasn’t barked is Trump. [Victim] spent hours at my house with him...” — Epstein to Ghislaine

Trump was clearly implicated in Epstein's crimes.

Denying it is delusion.
