Reminder: the Trump administration will never, ever release the Epstein documents that incriminate Trump or his billionaire buddies. The only way they come out is after we extract them by force of law. Nothing less than force will work. Everything that assumes cooperation is wasted time.

People say Trump was 'joking' about Iran destroying San Francisco and San Diego. Nope. Trump literally has no sense of humor. He doesn't understand how. The closest he gets is mocking people. Can you remember a single joke Trump told? And again, mocking doesn't count as 'humor'. Bet you can't.

If you don't like how politics divides us and how ugly it is, there's one simple thing you can do: never vote Republican again, and encourage those around you to adopt the same stance.

WaPo headline: "Maryland officials won’t speak at Trump’s shipbuilding event." (www.washingtonpost.com/dc-md-va/202...) Daaaamn. Trump removed Moore as a speaker so he can take credit for the project. WaPo's "Moore... will not participate" is doing some heavy lifting. www.ms.now/news/a-priva...

A private company invited Gov. Wes Moore to a Baltimore event. Trump had him removed as a speaker.

The president asked Anduril Industries to remove Maryland Gov. Moore from the speaking program at an event celebrating a defense tech investment in a working-class community.

No surprise. Republicans reliably support (Republican) rapists, abusers, wife-beaters, and pederasts. I bet they deny it in private, but who gives a fuck. The Republican Party willingly shields a felon, rapist, and child abuser with their lives and careers. Republicans always hated women.

Donald Trump post on TruthSocial:

The New York Times, in writing a story about one of the finest and most successful resorts anywhere in the World, Trump National Doral, in Miami, posted a picture where the facade has been blackened and denigrated by them in order to make it look shoddy, filthy, and just plain BAD. They want World Leaders to see this, knowing it is not the “TRUMP” way. The actual facade looks like the second picture posted, rather than the one doctored by The Times. Its Blue Monster Golf Course, home of the Cadillac Championship, is considered one of the Best, and Toughest, anywhere in the World! This is what I have to deal with on a constant basis — Artificial News! The Times is a CROOKED outfit that caters to Lunatics who want to see our Country fail.

WaPo asks about liability for AI damage. I guess billionaires struggle with those concepts. If something from your company harms someone, you're liable. If you're negligent, you might go to jail. So if, say, an Anthropic agent breaks into another site, they should get the crap sued out of them.

The NY Governor "...will not allow anyone to sweep this case under the rug." Did she mean to leave out "again"? Because Cornell successfully swept it away for two years before Jane Doe filed her lawsuit. The victim suffered and the rapists got away. The best we have now is to right an old wrong.

People describe the Republican agenda as 'Reinstituting discrimination.' I don't agree. The GOP didn't stop at Jim Crow White Nationalism. They're at full-on ethnic cleansing. That's all that explains ICE's deliberate, pointless cruelty to innocent people, or MAGA's celebration of each atrocity.
