Did you know that the human brain comprises mostly water and fat? In Donald's case, it's Arby's beef tallow and Diet Coke, hence the spew of verbal waste. Where is Jake Tapper, indeed? On a separate but related matter, two days ago in Columbus, Ohio, people joined hands in a chain eight miles long protesting ICE. The press can normalize a deteriorating monster all they want. People are waking up, standing up and getting noisy. https://www.dispatch.com/story/news/local/2025/08/09/trump-protest-high-street-downtown-columbus-ohio/85590841007/
Amen. I have family outside of Columbus. The crap I hear makes me wonder what the hell happened to Ohio?! I’m about 2 and half hours away from Columbus (I will add a big shout out to the Columbus Public Library, their book festival is awesome)
Absolutely! For those outside the state who may not know, these rabid Rs are now trying to legislate to roadblock the right to choose that 60% of Ohio voters added to our constitution two years ago. We VOTED IT INTO LAW, and STILL they won't accept it.
Republicans no longer even try to make a pretense of being a legitimate political party. Rather, they are a grievance cult that wants power solely for the purpose of imposing their will and the hell with the Constitution and representative democracy.
We also have to support our elected officials who ARE fighting for us – and there are many. But when we blanket-dismiss them all, they lose heart and enthusiasm/
AND I met so many outright ordinary people magats not only in Columbus but all through Ohio as well. Seeing now that ALL kinds of people are protesting these pseudo ICE critters (most are jan6th rioter/insurrectionist/traitor/criminals) shows that Ohio is far less RED and becoming BLUER than those like me believed. WTG, Ohioans!
The illegal gerrymandering in Ohio has changed us from purple to red. Glad to see my fellow Ohioans making good trouble! Democracy is not a spectator sport!
The only thing that's going to make these perilous times do the thing they need to do to trump is for us to keep talking about the damned Epstein files. Epstein files, Epstein files, Epstein files.......
Yes, agreed that you have to keep those verbal actions at the forefront. I’m as offended as you at what the orange moron is doing to your country. I’m just glad that we have a PM who will not be bullied by the guy who passes as your president.
Well put: the guy who "passes" as our president. Because he's not a president at all. He's a dictator. And I still don't believe his "election" wasn't rigged.
I fully concur with your rigged election comment. I just don’t know how you and your compatriots right the sinking ship, except that please know that most of my compatriots feel as I do. Today I read about the drop in border crossings from Canadians into the US - seriously down. For that I’m sorry that your leader has created a chasm between us. I have family in the US and I fear that I may not see my long lost cousin ever again.
CNN owned and run by republicans. I've never watched them. Now I'm glad I didn't, because I'm always hearing people complaining, especially about Tapper.
Although I missed this protest since I’m in NC this week, I love the Columbus libs! They’re the best! I drive from Pittsburgh just to protest with them! We old ladies, one retired military and retired from education, and 3 other retired educators all from OH, get our backs up and out the door with big smiles, big signs and full of rage 😤.
Let’s end every and all communications everywhere with “Release the Epstein files!” Especially anything that has his name in it. Flood social media. Repeat and repeat the message so he can’t escape it. Make it part of daily life! Seriously free advertising.
I'll say it again - this is a diversion from Epstein. Hundreds of children were raped and none of the 'clients' have been arrested or even exposed save Prince Pedopants. Trump raped children. Stop letting him change the subject.
I read that trump is working on lowering the age of consent for marriage to 14 which would also make it possible to charge 14 year olds as adults. Weren’t the kids who carjacked Big Balls a week or so ago teenagers, one being 14? And weren’t some of the girls who accused trump of raping them around 14?
Marriage age in the United States is set by state law, not by the federal government. Each state (as well as D.C. and U.S. territories) establishes its own minimum age for marriage, along with any exceptions such as parental or judicial consent requirements. The general marriage age is 18 in most states, with some variation—Nebraska sets it at 19 and Mississippi at 21 for general marriage without exceptions. So this is bullshit.
I said trump is working on it. You know what that means. He’s coercing his cronies and fellow pedos to lower the age in their states. If it sounds like bullshit and trumps doing it, then yes, it is bullshit.
Exactly Charlie, the people here, all understand the diversion smokescreen…getting the rest of the denizens in this country to understand is the issue!
Yes as long as our focus and the news cycle doesn't swing away from Epstein. What he is doing in DC is disgusting and I believe will hurt him in the end, but he is trying to create chaos as cover - we should not let him.
The upside is she will be out walking around in the open—in Texas. Soooo many guns, and right wingers are also pretty pissed off about the Epstein files!
AND they REALLY don't like pedophiles. One thing though - they might wish to wait until and IF she talks about her 'best friend Melania' and good pal frumpy. The entire PLANET knows by now that she's shutting up purely to get a pardon but has she considered that even IF she has her story locked away to be released IF she meets her end, the magats would be happy to accept her being gone and revert to 'nothing to see here'. I simply can't grasp WHY he's still teflon when it comes to SA of children?
The same. Think back to his Central Park 5 rants & full page ads and listing after his oldest daughter on Stern. He just can’t carry on a thought. And I never watched his TV shows. Those could be edited so until those out takes are released, we won’t know.
Hard to say when this will end when so many voters and non-voters are dumber than a bag of dildos. They persist in voting against their own interests for decades. I'm sick of the bitchfest about Democrats. Without them we would have looked like Venezuela a long time ago. White Christian Nationalism would have been an amendment to the Constitution that they use for toilet paper these days. We have a fucking stupidity/greed problem.
Thank You!! I'm so sick to death of hearing "why aren't the democrats doing ANYTHING??"
I ended my paid subscription to Aaron Parnas because you can't share an opinion without them jumping down your throat, calling you ignorant and more. On anything. This topic especially. The art of the discussion is lost on GenZ.
"right now we have a sitting president who can no longer be relied upon to form a coherent sentence, and who quite obviously can no longer even tell you what country’s he in. isn’t that a serious issue?"
Maybe people don't recall that the whole Comey announcement about 'Hillary's emails' and 'FBI investigation' would have died a quiet death leading up to the election -- had the press (NY Times, Wapo, CNN, etc.) not printed 72-point banner headlines like she had just gone on a shooting spree, and then followed up each and every day. They're hugely responsible for all of this.
Not to mention SCOTUS who delayed making a decision until after the felon had announced his run for the presidency. They are some of the biggest hypocrites to ever wear a black robe.
The NYT ran more front-page stories about "her emails" in the six days before the election than about ALL POLICY ISSUES COMBINED in the previous 69 days (Source: Columbia Journalism Review.) I know this fact by heart. The NY Times elected Trump.
Who is this mysterious "they", and please name the crimes. 🤔
It gets tiring, doesn't it? I haven't been on social media all day because I've had a rip roaring headache like no other. I get headaches, take a couple Tylenol and it's gone. I don't think the whole damn bottle would have gotten rid of this. I still have it, it's just not throbbing like it had been.
It took me a second to understand that you were responding to Nancy Eadie Larkin's post -- referring to the "they" who keep talking about Hillary's supposed crimes. It does get tiring. "She's dirty," one colleague at work said back in 2016. Scratching my head: "You're not worried about trump being dirty? with his decades of connections to the mob, Russians, Saudis, and so on?"
I know! I wish it showed who we were responding to. It gets frustrating.
It's such a double standard, isn't it? Biden sneezes, and he's on deaths door. trump can't complete a full sentence without rambling incoherently, and crickets. They won't answer if we ask, because they know they're wrong. Or if they do, they're caught in such a lie, it makes me wonder how old is this person I'm speaking with, did they get dropped on their head as a baby, and who hurt them? It's so wild. I could go months without speaking to a maga and be perfectly fine. My favorite? trump's policies on law & order. He's a felon! Then all I can do is laugh myself into oblivion...lol
I had eye surgery on June 26th. I had ptosis really bad! I can see a lot clearer, except even now, I have eyelid swelling, bruising under my eyes. So I haven't made an appt with my optometrist for new glasses, both to see distance and readers. I woke up with the headache. Positive it wasn't from reading anything. I'd go in in a flash if I thought for a sec it was from these! 🤓
I do, too! But first, I need the swelling to go away.
I've never had a migraine in my life. I have a friend who gets them, and I don't want them! I've spent far too much time on tiktok lives. They platform maga. The lies maga tell, finally made my blow.
The old demented Orange Idiot wants everyone to forget that he raped young girls along with his best bud Epstein for years. What about the over 4,000 wire transactions from four Russian banks to Epstein for over $1.5 billion USD old demented Orange Idiot???
Just listened to Jenine Pirro “bullshit” about the crime in Washington, DC. The crime rate in Washington is not even in the top 20 cities in the USA! Just more BULLSHIT to attempt to make everyone forget the Orange Monster is a child rapist!!!
You know that old idiot that says “dadgum”? Well, he says he’s terrified of leaving his office and walking around DC, because it’s just too “dadgum” dangerous. He’s a “dadgum” moron.
You have to look to Mitch McConnell. He had the chance (twice!) to impeach the Oranguturd and failed. The most despicable Senator ever. He'll hold that title in perpetuity.
I moved to NC in the 80’s to vote against Jesse Helms. It didn’t work. But today you can drive from the coast to the mountains and not ever come across a bridge, library, tech. center, medical building, highway, museum, research facility, park, pool, etc. with Jesse Helm’s name on it. Thirty years a senator and deposited into the dustbin of history like so much gum off the bottom of your shoe. Remembered as a racist, homophobic bigot. Good riddance.
Agree, and his loyalty to trump made it impossible for him to abide by the Rule of Law!
Barr was the last person to visit Epstein in Prison…before a series of phenomenal “mishaps” allowed Epstein to kill himself!
I do not think many people realize that before Epstein’s body was cold….our AG at the time, Bill Barr was at his mansion rummaging through it….looking for what?
Surely, Barr knew it was against the law for him to do that, being trump’s AG and all!
What a world we are leaving for our children and grandchildren!
It is my hope that someday, in the not too distant future, Garland will be exposed for the GOP troll he was!
The traitors involved in the insurrection, were released from Prison by trump on his first day back in office! (These are probably the masked goons of Ice)
Not trump or all the GOP politicians have answered for their treason!
We have Garland to thank for the mess we are in now!
Their corporate overlords, the same jerkholes that are paying off the rest of the anti-American Rethuglicans so they are free to rape, plunder, and pillage us.
Don't forget Aileen Cannon who dismissed the classified documents case. Bill Barr said that was the strongest case against the Orange Menace. I'm sure that Cannon will be rewarded with the next open Supreme Court Seat.
I hope not, cause Alito and his buddy Thomas will treat her as though she’s royalty and her vote on most repugnican issue will be the death knell of any Liberal case that comes before your highest court.
"Democrats, can we talk? there’s a lesson for you to learn here: this “we’re appointing a Republican to investigate us in order to appear fair” bullshit doesn’t work.
it didn’t work when Janet Reno named Robert Fisk and Ken Starr to investigate Bill Clinton.
it didn’t work when Barack Obama let James Comey go after the email lady.
and it sure as hell did not work when Merrick Garland appointed MAGA operative Robert Hur. for fuck’s sake, Hur is the guy wrote the false summary that Bill Barr used to mislead everyone about the Mueller Report. this is the guy you choose to investigate Biden?
Republicans will fuck you every time. stop giving them the opportunity.
notice that Republicans never appoint Democrats to head investigations. why do you think that is?
The stupid is REALLY STRONG with the dinosaur Dems. Schumer is a classic example of this. Spineless coward never learns that his "strongly worded letters" are laughed at by the GQP.
I had heard that Biden ORIGINALLY wanted Doug Jones, but apparently (Ron Klain) was approached w/the Garland idea?… Maybe bc MG was passed over for SCOTUS or… GOP knew how to get their man in there…? Again just heard that once but it’s interesting:/
Bill Barr has played a huge role in the destruction of democracy dame, Garland was but a spineless puppet, to a class none of us will ever belong, but I’m with you!!
Jeff, remember the movie “Being There”? You know, where Chance the Gardener only knows the world from watching TV. Donnie is just like Chance, except he watched different shows.
I’ve thought that often. He won’t read briefing books. He has no idea what he’s doing. Like in a Woody Allen film when people’s internal thoughts are shown, I’d like to see Putin’s, translated of course, when he meets with the incoherent one.
Trump will be accompanied by Steve Witkoff, his special envoy to Moscow, who salutes Putin with his hand over his heart, literally. Witkoff has given massively disinformative and confusing info to NATO leaders about negotiations with Russia. He hates Ukraine.
One word: 'dumkopf' and then he laffs and laffs and laffs while maintaining that shit-eating smirk. The entire time donny fuckwit is SO SURE he's having a confab with his best pal - another big shot guy who's just. like. him! Separately, when he goes to sleep in 'Russia', Donny fuckwit dreams of Vlad riding barechested on a horse.
Please copy this and repost it on other Substack comment boards and email it to reporters at newspapers. We must not let this coverup continue!
I AM FURIOUS. I AM OUTRAGED.
It is likely that there are dozens (or even hundreds) of young teenagers who were victims of pedophile Jeffrey Epstein and his pedophile friends/clients. Sadly, one of those victims, Virginia Guiffre, committed suicide earlier this year. Did she commit suicide, or was she murdered to silence her from telling everyone what she knew. It is my understanding that, so far, only two people were charged with committing criminal acts; one being pedophile Jeffrey Epstein, the other being his disgusting companion, Ghislaine Maxwell. It is my further understanding that only one person, that person being Prince Andrew, faced a civil (rather than a criminal) action stemming from the Epstein affair.
Given that dozens (and possibly hundreds) of underage girls were sexually abused, raped and trafficked by Epstein and Maxwell and that, so far, only two people, Epstein and Maxwell, have faced criminal charges, THE BIG QUESTIONS THE AMERICAN PEOPLE HAVE ARE:
A) WHO ARE THE OTHERS WHO ARE GUILTY OF CRIMES AGAINST THE UNDERAGE GIRLS WHO WERE SEXUALLY ABUSED, RAPED AND TRAFFICKED?
B) WHO IS RESPONSBILE FOR THE ONGOING COVERUP THAT IS PREVENTING PERPETRATORS OTHER THAN EPSTEIN AND MAXWELL FROM BEING CHARGED FOR THE HEINOUS CRIMES THAT WERE COMMITTED?
C) WHY IS THIS COVERUP CONTINUING; WHY ARE THESE CRIMES GOING UNPUNISHED?
FRANKLY, I DON’T CARE WHO IS ON THE LIST! NO MATTER HOW MUCH MONEY THEY HAVE, NO MATTER WHAT POSITIONS THEY HOLD IN THE BUSINESS WORLD, NO MATTER WHAT PUBLIC OFFICES THEY DID OR DO HOLD, THOSE WHO COMMITTED CRIMINAL ACTS AGAINST THE UNDERAGE GIRLS MUST BE BROUGHT TO JUSTICE!!! MUST. BE. BROUGHT. TO. JUSTICE!
The ATTORNEY GENERAL of the United States of America, Pam Bondi, is a liar.
a) “Bondi says Epstein client list ‘sitting on my desk right now’” [Fox News on Feb 21, 2025 — US Attorney General Pam Bondi on Friday said the Jeffrey Epstein client list is "sitting on my desk right now" and she is reviewing the JFK and MLK files.]
b) “DOJ (which Bondi is the head of) says Epstein client list does not exist” [PBS News on July 7, 2025 - WASHINGTON (AP) — Jeffrey Epstein did not maintain a “client list,” the Justice Department acknowledged Monday as it said no more files related to the wealthy financier’s sex trafficking investigation would be made public.
QUESTION: WHICH BONDI STATEMENT WAS THE LIE?
The DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE of the United States of America, led by Pam Bondi, who reports directly to President Donald J Trump, is involved in a coverup.
a) The DOJ tells us that Epstein committed suicide. Yet, there are gaps in the tapes. I, for one, believe that Epstein was murdered; this in order to prevent him from revealing the names of men who raped and otherwise sexually abused underage girls. It is well known – has been widely reported for years - that Trump, for decades, assisted Russian Oligarchs and Russian Mafia with laundering money through his real estate developments. Russian Mafia are notorious for committing murders to prevent people from testifying. Putin has a close relationship with the Russian Mafia. Putin did whatever he could do to see Trump win the presidency in 2016. Many believe that Trump withdrawing support for Ukraine is Trump’s way of bending the knee to his Master, Putin.
b) Reported on August 1st, 2025, on Bloomberg News: “The FBI Redacted Trump’s Name in the Epstein Files” - The bureau’s FOIA team tasked with conducting a final review of the records blacked out the names before higher-ups said last month that releasing the documents ‘would not be appropriate or warranted.’ Bloomberg reporter Jason Leopold: “Welcome back to FOIA Files! This week, I’m delving into the Jeffrey Epstein saga: We know from news reports that Trump’s name was in the Epstein files. But what hasn’t been reported is that an FBI FOIA team redacted Trump’s name—and the names of other prominent public figures—from the documents, according to three people familiar with the matter who were not authorized to speak with the media. That team, tasked with conducting a final review of the voluminous cache, had applied the redactions before the DOJ and the FBI concluded last month that “no further disclosure” of the files “would be appropriate or warranted.”
c) Todd Blanche, 2nd in command at the DOJ and formerly Donald J Trump’s personal attorney, interviews Ghislaine Maxwell. If this isn’t a case of the fox guarding the henhouse, I don’t know what would be. We should take for granted that this interview was all about Blanche trying to find out what Maxwell knows about Trump’s involvement with pedophile Epstein. Shortly after that interview took place, sex trafficker, sexual abuser Maxwell is moved to a minimum security prison camp.
d) Reported by NBC News on August 1, 2025: “Ghislaine Maxwell, Jeffrey Epstein’s co-conspirator and confidant, was moved to a minimum-security federal prison camp in Texas, prison officials said Friday. Maxwell, who is serving a 20-year prison sentence for her role in recruiting and trafficking minors for sex, was being held at a low-security facility in Tallahassee, Florida, that housed men and women. The camp in Bryan, Texas, houses only women. A majority of its inmates are serving time for nonviolent offenses and white-collar crimes. The move comes a week after Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche met with Maxwell and her lawyer, David Oscar Markus, for nine hours over two days. Blanche has made no public statements about what Maxwell said or about next steps in the current Justice Department investigation into Epstein, the financier and convicted sex offender who died by suicide in jail in 2019.
e) Reported by the Boston Globe on August 3, 2025: “Trump seems suspiciously open to a pardon for Ghislaine Maxwell.” Gee F’ing Whiz – what better way to make sure that Maxwell keeps her mouth shut about Trump’s involvement with Epstein and underage girls than….. than to use a presidential pardon to bribe Maxwell to keep her mouth shut!
THE AMERICAN PEOPLE WANT THE EPSTEIN FILES TO BE RELEASED!!! ALL OF THEM. THE ONLY REDACTIONS THAT SHOULD BE MADE ARE REDACTIONS TO BLANK OUT THE NAMES OF THE GIRLS WHO WERE SEXUALLY ABUSED, RAPED AND TRAFFICKED. THE AMERICAN PEOPLE WANT ALL OF THE PERPETRATORS OF CRIMES AGAINST THESE YOUNG GIRLS TO BE INDICTED AND TRIED. THEY MUST BE BROUGHT TO JUSTICE!
Joel, yes you are right. How did Epstein commit suicide? Hanging? No place in that cell to hang anything on. Where is the torn sheet to use for the hanging? Where are the forensics? Autopsy? Body? Very convenient very fast. Stinks mightily. Even sloppy.
Epstein had enough money to easily slip out of this situation. He wouldn’t have been in jail long.
There was somebody who wanted him dead.
Or removed.
So much corruption from Trump.
We are drowning in it.
Our Constitution was crafted with the thought that we are law abiding decent people.
These people in power are pure thugs. Liars, not a decent bone in their body.
Our stopping them is going to use our ingenuity strength knowledge determination organization and being on the right side of right.
It's okay. You could try to click on those three dots on the upper right and click on Edit. That's what someone taught me, when I said that, and it worked!
Let’s end every and all communications everywhere with “Release the Epstein files!” Especially anything that has his name in it. Flood social media. Repeat and repeat the message so he can’t escape it. Make it part of daily life! Seriously free advertising.
Not one question during the presser about the absurdity of a convicted felon, adjudicated rapist and alleged pedophile calling for a crackdown in crime. Can we please not give Cankles McPedo any credibility?
Keep in mind that Donny has eliminated most actual reporters from the WH press corps and replaced them with fawning sycophants from absurd “news” outlets. Be a real journalist these days and where does that get you? See, for ex., Al Jazeera in Gaza, where Israelis have killed 242 on-the-ground reporters since 10/07/23, most recently six, targeted in an airstrike. The casualties of war aren’t just soldiers and civilians; they’re also brave, dedicated truth-tellers risking their lives. Are any of the shameless clowns we call our press even acquainted with that kind of passion and courage? It is to laugh, bitterly.
Remember, this is all happening in DC because a WHITE GUY - A MAGA WHITE GUY - got beat up!
He acts like he gives a shit about crime, but he PRE ARRANGED for no backup be allowed to respond to J6 OUTNUMBERED UNARMED POLICE being beaten, permanently injured, and left for dead. Now he has the gall to talk about “taking our Capitol back”??? From who??
He’s trying to normalize police presence. Cops were questioning people smoking on their porches in D.C.’s majority-black neighborhoods. (Possession of up to two ounces of marijuana is legal.)
Assigning the National Guard to DC and federalizing the DC police gives him a standing army for personal protection and defense as the coup progresses. The MAGA Proud Boys are scratching their asses over the Epstein debacle.
WE need to take it back from HIM and his fucking THUGS! But of course, they're gaslighting ALL of us again, as usual, as always. This fuckery is enough to drive anyone nuts and so hard to keep track of it's no wonder the magats can't and WE often don't have all of the energy necessary. I know I'm at a low ebb. While the spirit is MORE than willing, the flesh is becoming weaker by the day, unfortunately. Still a pissed off mad as hell Scot, though!
Biden won 92.4 percent of the vote, earning D.C., a spot on the retribution and racism tour. While Trump tries to normalize police presence by harassing smokers on their porches in majority-black neighborhoods, RELEASE THE EPSTEIN FILES.
It doesn't matter that he's a gibbering loon. The MAGA base has been primed for DECADES that "democrat cities" are overflowing with diabolical street people ready to knife the nearest god-fearing white man for a Timex to buy dope. King Crazypants is the messiah come to clean up the filth, and that's the only part they hear.
Germans. That's who wash their porches/steps outside their doors. I used to live in a neighborhood with people of German descent and they did that. So all lines up with his desire to be hitler.
We should make that part of the admin’s punishment when they go down…and they will. They can scrub sidewalks on their hands and knees with a scrub brush. Then they’ll go directly to toilet cleaning duty in the prison cells.
When Karoline Nitwit is giving a press briefing I wish one reporter would stand up and instead of asking a question turn to the press corp and ask why aren't any of you making as big a deal out of the Felon-in-Chief's daily incoherent ramblings as they did with Biden's occasional slip ups. The MSM is just as complicit in this 3 ring circus as the incompetent talk show hosts that are in charge.
Did you know that the human brain comprises mostly water and fat? In Donald's case, it's Arby's beef tallow and Diet Coke, hence the spew of verbal waste. Where is Jake Tapper, indeed? On a separate but related matter, two days ago in Columbus, Ohio, people joined hands in a chain eight miles long protesting ICE. The press can normalize a deteriorating monster all they want.

We saw it on the news out here in Tucson! Way to go Columbus!
Sadly, the Ohio legislature is composed of democracy-hating psychopaths who don't care.
Psychopaths, sociopaths, pathogens, every kind of path have invaded public life. They're having their day. It's passing.
I sure hope you’re right, Ann. 🤞
Ann, I love your optimism, because this too, shall pass.
🤞
Pathways to sanity! Soon I hope, lest we all go bonkers.
Amen. I have family outside of Columbus. The crap I hear makes me wonder what the hell happened to Ohio?! I’m about 2 and half hours away from Columbus (I will add a big shout out to the Columbus Public Library, their book festival is awesome)
What happened is gerrymandering, a GOP seizure of total power to violate what citizens want.
Absolutely! For those outside the state who may not know, these rabid Rs are now trying to legislate to roadblock the right to choose that 60% of Ohio voters added to our constitution two years ago. We VOTED IT INTO LAW, and STILL they won't accept it.
Republicans no longer even try to make a pretense of being a legitimate political party. Rather, they are a grievance cult that wants power solely for the purpose of imposing their will and the hell with the Constitution and representative democracy.
Perfectly said, Charles.
I’m saying that about half our country these days.
We have seen that most of our elected officials are NOT coming to save us, we have to do it OURSELVES.
We also have to support our elected officials who ARE fighting for us – and there are many. But when we blanket-dismiss them all, they lose heart and enthusiasm/
I did not blanket dismiss them-you did with your first comment, hence the reason I said MOST.
AND I met so many outright ordinary people magats not only in Columbus but all through Ohio as well. Seeing now that ALL kinds of people are protesting these pseudo ICE critters (most are jan6th rioter/insurrectionist/traitor/criminals) shows that Ohio is far less RED and becoming BLUER than those like me believed. WTG, Ohioans!
Somehow, Ohioans must get rid of Big Mouth Jim! What a useless POS he is!
The illegal gerrymandering in Ohio has changed us from purple to red. Glad to see my fellow Ohioans making good trouble! Democracy is not a spectator sport!
The cities, and much of the northern half of the state, have always been blue.
Corrupt, too, I believe.
Yep. The exceptions to that rule are too few.
Ann Anderson I so hope the people stand up strongly enough and quickly enough. Because these are perilous times.
These are perilous times for Trump, too. Keep the faith.
Thanks for that. Living in a very red part of Kentucky, sometimes I need encouragement.
Whew! Got it! I'm in cool, blue Oregon. Easier to be upbeat.
I'm in OCCUPIED California
You're in LA? (My home for a few decades.) Federal goons were all over Portland during Trump 1. Infuriating and sickening.
Epstein files, Epstein files, Epstein files, Epstein files, Epstein files.......
The only thing that's going to make these perilous times do the thing they need to do to trump is for us to keep talking about the damned Epstein files. Epstein files, Epstein files, Epstein files.......
Yes, agreed that you have to keep those verbal actions at the forefront. I’m as offended as you at what the orange moron is doing to your country. I’m just glad that we have a PM who will not be bullied by the guy who passes as your president.
Well put: the guy who "passes" as our president. Because he's not a president at all. He's a dictator. And I still don't believe his "election" wasn't rigged.
I fully concur with your rigged election comment. I just don’t know how you and your compatriots right the sinking ship, except that please know that most of my compatriots feel as I do. Today I read about the drop in border crossings from Canadians into the US - seriously down. For that I’m sorry that your leader has created a chasm between us. I have family in the US and I fear that I may not see my long lost cousin ever again.
First I’m hearing this!!!
I saw it on Maddow last night. BTW Lawrence O'Donnell was FIRE last night !
Lawrence, Rachel, and Nicolle are my “go-tos” on legacy media. That’s it. No CNN for me!
CNN owned and run by republicans. I've never watched them. Now I'm glad I didn't, because I'm always hearing people complaining, especially about Tapper.
I haven't watched CNN for 10 years.
They both were. Yep!
Although I missed this protest since I’m in NC this week, I love the Columbus libs! They’re the best! I drive from Pittsburgh just to protest with them! We old ladies, one retired military and retired from education, and 3 other retired educators all from OH, get our backs up and out the door with big smiles, big signs and full of rage 😤.
I'm not often proud of my state these days, but what a tremendous effort! Go, Columbus!
SUGGESTION:
Let’s end every and all communications everywhere with “Release the Epstein files!” Especially anything that has his name in it. Flood social media. Repeat and repeat the message so he can’t escape it. Make it part of daily life! Seriously free advertising.
(All I could see is Germ Mania.).
Well how about the horror show this awards show is going to be with Trump hosting it. I hope that it is broadcast around the planet.

Oh my fucking god I don't believe in !!!
I know!
At heart, Trump is a TV show host. A century ago, he would have been a carnival barker.
And my response to the big blue Columbus dot in Red Ohio is O-H!!!! Way to go Columbus!
To be fair, we don’t know that Donald Trump has ever eaten Arby’s.
We do know that his advisor, Laura Loomer, thinks Marjorie Taylor Greene keeps roast beef in her pants though.
Also that none of this has anything to do with THE EPSTEIN FILES.
I'll say it again - this is a diversion from Epstein. Hundreds of children were raped and none of the 'clients' have been arrested or even exposed save Prince Pedopants. Trump raped children. Stop letting him change the subject.
I read that trump is working on lowering the age of consent for marriage to 14 which would also make it possible to charge 14 year olds as adults. Weren’t the kids who carjacked Big Balls a week or so ago teenagers, one being 14? And weren’t some of the girls who accused trump of raping them around 14?
I think you have correctly connected those dots.
Read what BOX WINE BETTY said at that " press " abomination.
Marriage age in the United States is set by state law, not by the federal government. Each state (as well as D.C. and U.S. territories) establishes its own minimum age for marriage, along with any exceptions such as parental or judicial consent requirements. The general marriage age is 18 in most states, with some variation—Nebraska sets it at 19 and Mississippi at 21 for general marriage without exceptions. So this is bullshit.
I said trump is working on it. You know what that means. He’s coercing his cronies and fellow pedos to lower the age in their states. If it sounds like bullshit and trumps doing it, then yes, it is bullshit.
Those monsters tortured children. Tortured!
Indeed, and our pedoprez, was one of them Nancy!
Exactly Charlie, the people here, all understand the diversion smokescreen…getting the rest of the denizens in this country to understand is the issue!
Agree.
Trump trafficked teenagers into this country to be raped by those "clients".
He also did it himself, yes.
Yes it’s a distraction from Epstein, but that doesn’t mean it shouldn’t be taken seriously.
Yes as long as our focus and the news cycle doesn't swing away from Epstein. What he is doing in DC is disgusting and I believe will hurt him in the end, but he is trying to create chaos as cover - we should not let him.
RawStory has an article today about Ghislaine Maxwell being approved for work release. 🤬
Probably as a youth counselor.
Can you hear me SCREAMING ?!
The upside is she will be out walking around in the open—in Texas. Soooo many guns, and right wingers are also pretty pissed off about the Epstein files!
AND they REALLY don't like pedophiles. One thing though - they might wish to wait until and IF she talks about her 'best friend Melania' and good pal frumpy. The entire PLANET knows by now that she's shutting up purely to get a pardon but has she considered that even IF she has her story locked away to be released IF she meets her end, the magats would be happy to accept her being gone and revert to 'nothing to see here'. I simply can't grasp WHY he's still teflon when it comes to SA of children?
If so, then I think she'll be disappeared.
As stated previously: we should be worried about Ghislaine’s safety till after her book is published!
How the fuck does a convicted sex offender, who was sentenced to 20 YEARS, get work release??????
He's just doing a flailing tap dance to draw our attention away.
Well Said Charlie! He’s a PEDOPHILE BASTARD!
Made those Children’s Lives HELL FOR EVER!
I LOATHE HIM AND HIS ILK!
As they
GET OFF WITH EVERYTHING! 🤬🤬
"Donny’s handlers must be terrified to let him out in public..."
NO SHIT. The felon IS. INSANE.
When the hell is this going to end?????
Sometimes I wonder how much worse it would be if he had his shit together?
The same. Think back to his Central Park 5 rants & full page ads and listing after his oldest daughter on Stern. He just can’t carry on a thought. And I never watched his TV shows. Those could be edited so until those out takes are released, we won’t know.
Yes - racist, bigoted woman hating rapist pedophile going back decades!
Agree. Can't heart this.
His first term was considered a failure because too many of his cabinet killed the billionaire overlords plan mon ami!!
True
Hard to say when this will end when so many voters and non-voters are dumber than a bag of dildos. They persist in voting against their own interests for decades. I'm sick of the bitchfest about Democrats. Without them we would have looked like Venezuela a long time ago. White Christian Nationalism would have been an amendment to the Constitution that they use for toilet paper these days. We have a fucking stupidity/greed problem.
The word you're looking for is "corruption."
Ugh. The people who whine " Why aren't the Dems doing anything?"
Are uninformed & lazy, just like the BOTH SIDES ARE ALIKE , idiots
Thank You!! I'm so sick to death of hearing "why aren't the democrats doing ANYTHING??"
I ended my paid subscription to Aaron Parnas because you can't share an opinion without them jumping down your throat, calling you ignorant and more. On anything. This topic especially. The art of the discussion is lost on GenZ.
Absolutely! 👏👏👏
Bingo!
… and they continue to cover it as a ‘normal’ presidency?!
My new face:😱
Exactly! 😂😂😂
You forgot to mention that pedo prez is also a child rapist. We must never stop speaking the truth to that point.
Just a daily reminder that deranged Shitler has the nuclear codes.
Thanks Walt. We can always count on you.
"right now we have a sitting president who can no longer be relied upon to form a coherent sentence, and who quite obviously can no longer even tell you what country’s he in. isn’t that a serious issue?"
Maybe people don't recall that the whole Comey announcement about 'Hillary's emails' and 'FBI investigation' would have died a quiet death leading up to the election -- had the press (NY Times, Wapo, CNN, etc.) not printed 72-point banner headlines like she had just gone on a shooting spree, and then followed up each and every day. They're hugely responsible for all of this.
Not to mention SCOTUS who delayed making a decision until after the felon had announced his run for the presidency. They are some of the biggest hypocrites to ever wear a black robe.
They are shameful poseurs in their black robes. The women have brains but the men are bought and paid for.
The NYT ran more front-page stories about "her emails" in the six days before the election than about ALL POLICY ISSUES COMBINED in the previous 69 days (Source: Columbia Journalism Review.) I know this fact by heart. The NY Times elected Trump.
Cleverly avoiding qualified women…is killing us. 😞
And add Hegseth to the mix and soon women might frigging lose the right to vote! F*ck them all.
Do any of these guys have *daughters*? Asking for 150M friends…
My ut-oh moment came while phone banking in 2016. A registered Dem said, “but they say she’s committed crimes.” I couldn’t convince her otherwise. 😳
9 years later: He’s commuted crimes … oh, but that doesn’t matter!
🤬
Who is this mysterious "they", and please name the crimes. 🤔
It gets tiring, doesn't it? I haven't been on social media all day because I've had a rip roaring headache like no other. I get headaches, take a couple Tylenol and it's gone. I don't think the whole damn bottle would have gotten rid of this. I still have it, it's just not throbbing like it had been.
It took me a second to understand that you were responding to Nancy Eadie Larkin's post -- referring to the "they" who keep talking about Hillary's supposed crimes. It does get tiring. "She's dirty," one colleague at work said back in 2016. Scratching my head: "You're not worried about trump being dirty? with his decades of connections to the mob, Russians, Saudis, and so on?"
No answer.
I know! I wish it showed who we were responding to. It gets frustrating.
It's such a double standard, isn't it? Biden sneezes, and he's on deaths door. trump can't complete a full sentence without rambling incoherently, and crickets. They won't answer if we ask, because they know they're wrong. Or if they do, they're caught in such a lie, it makes me wonder how old is this person I'm speaking with, did they get dropped on their head as a baby, and who hurt them? It's so wild. I could go months without speaking to a maga and be perfectly fine. My favorite? trump's policies on law & order. He's a felon! Then all I can do is laugh myself into oblivion...lol
I get eye strain headaches, I read a LOT. Probably from my cheap cheaters.
🤓
I had eye surgery on June 26th. I had ptosis really bad! I can see a lot clearer, except even now, I have eyelid swelling, bruising under my eyes. So I haven't made an appt with my optometrist for new glasses, both to see distance and readers. I woke up with the headache. Positive it wasn't from reading anything. I'd go in in a flash if I thought for a sec it was from these! 🤓
I need a professional eye exam
I do gey what's called Atypical Migraines, rarely, thankfully
I do, too! But first, I need the swelling to go away.
I've never had a migraine in my life. I have a friend who gets them, and I don't want them! I've spent far too much time on tiktok lives. They platform maga. The lies maga tell, finally made my blow.
The old demented Orange Idiot wants everyone to forget that he raped young girls along with his best bud Epstein for years. What about the over 4,000 wire transactions from four Russian banks to Epstein for over $1.5 billion USD old demented Orange Idiot???
That was only one bank account. Wyden’s got more.
Just listened to Jenine Pirro “bullshit” about the crime in Washington, DC. The crime rate in Washington is not even in the top 20 cities in the USA! Just more BULLSHIT to attempt to make everyone forget the Orange Monster is a child rapist!!!
You know that old idiot that says “dadgum”? Well, he says he’s terrified of leaving his office and walking around DC, because it’s just too “dadgum” dangerous. He’s a “dadgum” moron.
Anyone still saying "dadgum" should be put out to pasture so the younger generation who will inherit this shitshow can start the clean up process.
Definitely. He probably thinks it’s “quaint”.
This M33, should be front page news!!
Friggin' Garland GIVEN FOUR YEARS did doodly squat...I just can't.
You have to look to Mitch McConnell. He had the chance (twice!) to impeach the Oranguturd and failed. The most despicable Senator ever. He'll hold that title in perpetuity.
I don't know. Jesse Helms and Strom Thurmond were pretty bad too.
The list of decent Republican Senate Majority Leaders is easier.
1, 2, ,3...
None.
I moved to NC in the 80’s to vote against Jesse Helms. It didn’t work. But today you can drive from the coast to the mountains and not ever come across a bridge, library, tech. center, medical building, highway, museum, research facility, park, pool, etc. with Jesse Helm’s name on it. Thirty years a senator and deposited into the dustbin of history like so much gum off the bottom of your shoe. Remembered as a racist, homophobic bigot. Good riddance.
One of the nastiest racists to ever serve in the Senate.
Agree, and his loyalty to trump made it impossible for him to abide by the Rule of Law!
Barr was the last person to visit Epstein in Prison…before a series of phenomenal “mishaps” allowed Epstein to kill himself!
I do not think many people realize that before Epstein’s body was cold….our AG at the time, Bill Barr was at his mansion rummaging through it….looking for what?
Surely, Barr knew it was against the law for him to do that, being trump’s AG and all!
What a world we are leaving for our children and grandchildren!
It is my hope that someday, in the not too distant future, Garland will be exposed for the GOP troll he was!
The traitors involved in the insurrection, were released from Prison by trump on his first day back in office! (These are probably the masked goons of Ice)
Not trump or all the GOP politicians have answered for their treason!
We have Garland to thank for the mess we are in now!
Garland and apathetic voters…who have tuned out!
Don't forget to give credit where credit is due. The Supine Court bears a huge responsibility for allowing this lawlessness. Who is paying them?
Their corporate overlords, the same jerkholes that are paying off the rest of the anti-American Rethuglicans so they are free to rape, plunder, and pillage us.
Don't forget Aileen Cannon who dismissed the classified documents case. Bill Barr said that was the strongest case against the Orange Menace. I'm sure that Cannon will be rewarded with the next open Supreme Court Seat.
I hope not, cause Alito and his buddy Thomas will treat her as though she’s royalty and her vote on most repugnican issue will be the death knell of any Liberal case that comes before your highest court.
Well what was his name ? Harlan Crowe or something? Him for one. Then Paul Singer brought Alito to Alaska.

Leonard Leo was given control of billions of dollars by Barre Seid, for his sick conservative crusade.
They sit in the judgement of all things, brought to you by that same billionaire class Arne!
He is a republican after all. Why Biden nominated then stuck with him I swear to pete.
because Democrats always appoint Republicans in order to show how fair-minded they are.
it's fucking dumb and always blows up in their faces, and I wrote a whole thing about it a while back
https://www.jefftiedrich.com/p/robert-hur-is-a-fucking-liar-and
"Democrats, can we talk? there’s a lesson for you to learn here: this “we’re appointing a Republican to investigate us in order to appear fair” bullshit doesn’t work.
it didn’t work when Janet Reno named Robert Fisk and Ken Starr to investigate Bill Clinton.
it didn’t work when Barack Obama let James Comey go after the email lady.
and it sure as hell did not work when Merrick Garland appointed MAGA operative Robert Hur. for fuck’s sake, Hur is the guy wrote the false summary that Bill Barr used to mislead everyone about the Mueller Report. this is the guy you choose to investigate Biden?
Republicans will fuck you every time. stop giving them the opportunity.
notice that Republicans never appoint Democrats to head investigations. why do you think that is?
figure it out."
Plain and simple. There is no "both sides are baaad" argument. One party is for greed and power, and the other party is not.
The stupid is REALLY STRONG with the dinosaur Dems. Schumer is a classic example of this. Spineless coward never learns that his "strongly worded letters" are laughed at by the GQP.
I had heard that Biden ORIGINALLY wanted Doug Jones, but apparently (Ron Klain) was approached w/the Garland idea?… Maybe bc MG was passed over for SCOTUS or… GOP knew how to get their man in there…? Again just heard that once but it’s interesting:/
Jones would've been better.
A ham sandwich would have been better.
Sadly…
Bill Barr has played a huge role in the destruction of democracy dame, Garland was but a spineless puppet, to a class none of us will ever belong, but I’m with you!!
I’m still unsure why we continue to drag Merrick Garland. He’s retired from governor service and really can’t hurt us anymore.
Sorry if it bothers you….but I am a firm believer that if a person has a job he should do it, or resign!
President Biden made a bad decision in this instance, and he should have fired the SOB!
If he had followed through, maybe the traitors in the GOP would have been imprisoned, instead of the unlawfulness we are experiencing as a result!
Those who ignore history are destined to repeat it!
It doesn’t bother me. I just don’t see the point.
Then there is no reason for you to lose sleep over this criminal administration! I wish I knew what a good night’s sleep felt like!
Seroquel...
I’m not sure what you’re saying, but oh well
Jeff, remember the movie “Being There”? You know, where Chance the Gardener only knows the world from watching TV. Donnie is just like Chance, except he watched different shows.
except Chance the Gardener was fundamentally a decent person
Actually, walk-on-water holy.
And that's why Shirley MacClaine loved him.
I have Being There recorded, I love that movie.
I’ve thought that often. He won’t read briefing books. He has no idea what he’s doing. Like in a Woody Allen film when people’s internal thoughts are shown, I’d like to see Putin’s, translated of course, when he meets with the incoherent one.
Trump will be accompanied by Steve Witkoff, his special envoy to Moscow, who salutes Putin with his hand over his heart, literally. Witkoff has given massively disinformative and confusing info to NATO leaders about negotiations with Russia. He hates Ukraine.
Half wit Witkoff.
Oh what a horrible outcome this will have.
I can smell the stench all the way over here.
One word: 'dumkopf' and then he laffs and laffs and laffs while maintaining that shit-eating smirk. The entire time donny fuckwit is SO SURE he's having a confab with his best pal - another big shot guy who's just. like. him! Separately, when he goes to sleep in 'Russia', Donny fuckwit dreams of Vlad riding barechested on a horse.
Please copy this and repost it on other Substack comment boards and email it to reporters at newspapers. We must not let this coverup continue!
I AM FURIOUS. I AM OUTRAGED.
It is likely that there are dozens (or even hundreds) of young teenagers who were victims of pedophile Jeffrey Epstein and his pedophile friends/clients. Sadly, one of those victims, Virginia Guiffre, committed suicide earlier this year. Did she commit suicide, or was she murdered to silence her from telling everyone what she knew. It is my understanding that, so far, only two people were charged with committing criminal acts; one being pedophile Jeffrey Epstein, the other being his disgusting companion, Ghislaine Maxwell. It is my further understanding that only one person, that person being Prince Andrew, faced a civil (rather than a criminal) action stemming from the Epstein affair.
Given that dozens (and possibly hundreds) of underage girls were sexually abused, raped and trafficked by Epstein and Maxwell and that, so far, only two people, Epstein and Maxwell, have faced criminal charges, THE BIG QUESTIONS THE AMERICAN PEOPLE HAVE ARE:
A) WHO ARE THE OTHERS WHO ARE GUILTY OF CRIMES AGAINST THE UNDERAGE GIRLS WHO WERE SEXUALLY ABUSED, RAPED AND TRAFFICKED?
B) WHO IS RESPONSBILE FOR THE ONGOING COVERUP THAT IS PREVENTING PERPETRATORS OTHER THAN EPSTEIN AND MAXWELL FROM BEING CHARGED FOR THE HEINOUS CRIMES THAT WERE COMMITTED?
C) WHY IS THIS COVERUP CONTINUING; WHY ARE THESE CRIMES GOING UNPUNISHED?
FRANKLY, I DON’T CARE WHO IS ON THE LIST! NO MATTER HOW MUCH MONEY THEY HAVE, NO MATTER WHAT POSITIONS THEY HOLD IN THE BUSINESS WORLD, NO MATTER WHAT PUBLIC OFFICES THEY DID OR DO HOLD, THOSE WHO COMMITTED CRIMINAL ACTS AGAINST THE UNDERAGE GIRLS MUST BE BROUGHT TO JUSTICE!!! MUST. BE. BROUGHT. TO. JUSTICE!
The ATTORNEY GENERAL of the United States of America, Pam Bondi, is a liar.
a) “Bondi says Epstein client list ‘sitting on my desk right now’” [Fox News on Feb 21, 2025 — US Attorney General Pam Bondi on Friday said the Jeffrey Epstein client list is "sitting on my desk right now" and she is reviewing the JFK and MLK files.]
b) “DOJ (which Bondi is the head of) says Epstein client list does not exist” [PBS News on July 7, 2025 - WASHINGTON (AP) — Jeffrey Epstein did not maintain a “client list,” the Justice Department acknowledged Monday as it said no more files related to the wealthy financier’s sex trafficking investigation would be made public.
QUESTION: WHICH BONDI STATEMENT WAS THE LIE?
The DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE of the United States of America, led by Pam Bondi, who reports directly to President Donald J Trump, is involved in a coverup.
a) The DOJ tells us that Epstein committed suicide. Yet, there are gaps in the tapes. I, for one, believe that Epstein was murdered; this in order to prevent him from revealing the names of men who raped and otherwise sexually abused underage girls. It is well known – has been widely reported for years - that Trump, for decades, assisted Russian Oligarchs and Russian Mafia with laundering money through his real estate developments. Russian Mafia are notorious for committing murders to prevent people from testifying. Putin has a close relationship with the Russian Mafia. Putin did whatever he could do to see Trump win the presidency in 2016. Many believe that Trump withdrawing support for Ukraine is Trump’s way of bending the knee to his Master, Putin.
b) Reported on August 1st, 2025, on Bloomberg News: “The FBI Redacted Trump’s Name in the Epstein Files” - The bureau’s FOIA team tasked with conducting a final review of the records blacked out the names before higher-ups said last month that releasing the documents ‘would not be appropriate or warranted.’ Bloomberg reporter Jason Leopold: “Welcome back to FOIA Files! This week, I’m delving into the Jeffrey Epstein saga: We know from news reports that Trump’s name was in the Epstein files. But what hasn’t been reported is that an FBI FOIA team redacted Trump’s name—and the names of other prominent public figures—from the documents, according to three people familiar with the matter who were not authorized to speak with the media. That team, tasked with conducting a final review of the voluminous cache, had applied the redactions before the DOJ and the FBI concluded last month that “no further disclosure” of the files “would be appropriate or warranted.”
c) Todd Blanche, 2nd in command at the DOJ and formerly Donald J Trump’s personal attorney, interviews Ghislaine Maxwell. If this isn’t a case of the fox guarding the henhouse, I don’t know what would be. We should take for granted that this interview was all about Blanche trying to find out what Maxwell knows about Trump’s involvement with pedophile Epstein. Shortly after that interview took place, sex trafficker, sexual abuser Maxwell is moved to a minimum security prison camp.
d) Reported by NBC News on August 1, 2025: “Ghislaine Maxwell, Jeffrey Epstein’s co-conspirator and confidant, was moved to a minimum-security federal prison camp in Texas, prison officials said Friday. Maxwell, who is serving a 20-year prison sentence for her role in recruiting and trafficking minors for sex, was being held at a low-security facility in Tallahassee, Florida, that housed men and women. The camp in Bryan, Texas, houses only women. A majority of its inmates are serving time for nonviolent offenses and white-collar crimes. The move comes a week after Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche met with Maxwell and her lawyer, David Oscar Markus, for nine hours over two days. Blanche has made no public statements about what Maxwell said or about next steps in the current Justice Department investigation into Epstein, the financier and convicted sex offender who died by suicide in jail in 2019.
e) Reported by the Boston Globe on August 3, 2025: “Trump seems suspiciously open to a pardon for Ghislaine Maxwell.” Gee F’ing Whiz – what better way to make sure that Maxwell keeps her mouth shut about Trump’s involvement with Epstein and underage girls than….. than to use a presidential pardon to bribe Maxwell to keep her mouth shut!
THE AMERICAN PEOPLE WANT THE EPSTEIN FILES TO BE RELEASED!!! ALL OF THEM. THE ONLY REDACTIONS THAT SHOULD BE MADE ARE REDACTIONS TO BLANK OUT THE NAMES OF THE GIRLS WHO WERE SEXUALLY ABUSED, RAPED AND TRAFFICKED. THE AMERICAN PEOPLE WANT ALL OF THE PERPETRATORS OF CRIMES AGAINST THESE YOUNG GIRLS TO BE INDICTED AND TRIED. THEY MUST BE BROUGHT TO JUSTICE!
Joel, yes you are right. How did Epstein commit suicide? Hanging? No place in that cell to hang anything on. Where is the torn sheet to use for the hanging? Where are the forensics? Autopsy? Body? Very convenient very fast. Stinks mightily. Even sloppy.
Epstein had enough money to easily slip out of this situation. He wouldn’t have been in jail long.
There was somebody who wanted him dead.
Or removed.
So much corruption from Trump.
We are drowning in it.
Our Constitution was crafted with the thought that we are law abiding decent people.
These people in power are pure thugs. Liars, not a decent bone in their body.
Our stopping them is going to use our ingenuity strength knowledge determination organization and being on the right side of right.
👍🥳🇺🇸😞
And it needs to be fast. We lose ground each day.
Go back in and edit "corruption" to "CORRUPTION".
I don’t know how to edit! 😍
It's okay. You could try to click on those three dots on the upper right and click on Edit. That's what someone taught me, when I said that, and it worked!
Nothing is more annoying than "copy and paste." I immediately overlook anything with this instruction.
I do too!!
“Get the news behind the news for just $180 a month!” promised Bloomberg.
Let’s end every and all communications everywhere with “Release the Epstein files!” Especially anything that has his name in it. Flood social media. Repeat and repeat the message so he can’t escape it. Make it part of daily life! Seriously free advertising.
I'm doing it. #EpsteinFiles
Excellent.
THIS! and the reason they didn't release the files is because his fucking name is on EVERY FUCKING PAGE! #RELEASETHEEPSTEINFILES
Not one question during the presser about the absurdity of a convicted felon, adjudicated rapist and alleged pedophile calling for a crackdown in crime. Can we please not give Cankles McPedo any credibility?
Keep in mind that Donny has eliminated most actual reporters from the WH press corps and replaced them with fawning sycophants from absurd “news” outlets. Be a real journalist these days and where does that get you? See, for ex., Al Jazeera in Gaza, where Israelis have killed 242 on-the-ground reporters since 10/07/23, most recently six, targeted in an airstrike. The casualties of war aren’t just soldiers and civilians; they’re also brave, dedicated truth-tellers risking their lives. Are any of the shameless clowns we call our press even acquainted with that kind of passion and courage? It is to laugh, bitterly.
Thank you for mentioning this. The name of "Israel" should taste like ashes in our mouths.
Killing all the legitimate journalists and their teams has worked it's way up to the top of the list now for the rump regime, I guarantee.
"Cankles McPedo" now has an exalted place on The List. Thank you for your contribution.
Remember, this is all happening in DC because a WHITE GUY - A MAGA WHITE GUY - got beat up!
He acts like he gives a shit about crime, but he PRE ARRANGED for no backup be allowed to respond to J6 OUTNUMBERED UNARMED POLICE being beaten, permanently injured, and left for dead. Now he has the gall to talk about “taking our Capitol back”??? From who??
He’s trying to normalize police presence. Cops were questioning people smoking on their porches in D.C.’s majority-black neighborhoods. (Possession of up to two ounces of marijuana is legal.)
Assigning the National Guard to DC and federalizing the DC police gives him a standing army for personal protection and defense as the coup progresses. The MAGA Proud Boys are scratching their asses over the Epstein debacle.
They still swear an oath to the Constitution, not this Presidunce.
And, yes, the Nuremberg Defense is still not legal in any court.
EXACTLY! His racism and privilege on full display, @KathyInCali.
That photo was staged @
WE need to take it back from HIM and his fucking THUGS! But of course, they're gaslighting ALL of us again, as usual, as always. This fuckery is enough to drive anyone nuts and so hard to keep track of it's no wonder the magats can't and WE often don't have all of the energy necessary. I know I'm at a low ebb. While the spirit is MORE than willing, the flesh is becoming weaker by the day, unfortunately. Still a pissed off mad as hell Scot, though!
He’s giving Alaska to Putin. He slipped up and called it Russia.
That is exactly what I was thinking he would try to do.
And Putin will give Trump Greenland and Canada in exchange. Who knew global geopolitics was such child's play?
No- he will tell Donny Dachau, you give me Alaska, I stop invasion of Ukraine.
The slobbering dawg will then agree, not realizing there will be no withdrawal from Ukraine.

Restacked !
Love it!
I hope Lisa likes it.
Good—fuk ‘em, they always vote repuke.
Exactly my thoughts. It was foreshadowing.
The Alaskans are having a helluva lot to say about THAT chicanery!
Biden won 92.4 percent of the vote, earning D.C., a spot on the retribution and racism tour. While Trump tries to normalize police presence by harassing smokers on their porches in majority-black neighborhoods, RELEASE THE EPSTEIN FILES.
And those are the neighborhoods he will target plus the now very tony “Wharf”.
If Warner Bros. wasn’t owned by Zaslev, I’d expect to see a clip of this with repeated anvils dropping on heads. ‘Cause this is strictly Loony Tunes.
Vincent Gigante would be embarrassed by this schtick.
And yet, the press corps just stands there lapping it up and shouting for more.
Let’s not call it “press corps” it’s the propaganda corpse(sic)
It doesn't matter that he's a gibbering loon. The MAGA base has been primed for DECADES that "democrat cities" are overflowing with diabolical street people ready to knife the nearest god-fearing white man for a Timex to buy dope. King Crazypants is the messiah come to clean up the filth, and that's the only part they hear.
Germans. That's who wash their porches/steps outside their doors. I used to live in a neighborhood with people of German descent and they did that. So all lines up with his desire to be hitler.
How many years ago?
We should make that part of the admin’s punishment when they go down…and they will. They can scrub sidewalks on their hands and knees with a scrub brush. Then they’ll go directly to toilet cleaning duty in the prison cells.
in the case of my neighbors it was the mid-80s. I assume they still do it..
wasn't front-stoop washing a thing in Baltimore at one time?
It was for years everywhere.
just googled - looks like it was a thing! apparently they had marble steps.... Thanks, I just learned something!
https://www.baltimoremagazine.com/section/historypolitics/baltimore-marble-step-scrubbing-highlandtown-history/
I had that bit of info rattling around in my head because I was a big Billie Holiday fan and there was something about her or her mother doing that...
When I was a child, I had relatives who lived in Baltimore. They had marble steps up to their front doors. They regularly scrubbed them.
I lived in Stuttgart, Germany in 1971 while my spouse served in the US Army. Germans also swept their streets.
When Karoline Nitwit is giving a press briefing I wish one reporter would stand up and instead of asking a question turn to the press corp and ask why aren't any of you making as big a deal out of the Felon-in-Chief's daily incoherent ramblings as they did with Biden's occasional slip ups. The MSM is just as complicit in this 3 ring circus as the incompetent talk show hosts that are in charge.
