The disgusting thing about this real post from the real White House Twitter account is that Donald Trump raped children, and Charlie’s brother did too.

As more people are exposed by the Epstein files, I'd ask everyone to agree: It doesn't matter who it is or what "side" they are on. It doesn't matter if you like them. If someone is implicated in abuses against children or adults, they must be accountable--no one gets a pass.

There were two Super Bowl LX ads for fake companies: - Mike Tyson's "pudgy" ad for MAHA Center dot org. The company was organized 2 days before the big game. - AI dot com offers personal agentic AI, but is just a vibe-coded web page pitching a different product that doesn't work.

Trump is going to demolish the Kennedy Center and leave it as a muddy hole in the ground just because actual artists don’t want to play with him. Change my mind.

Trump to UAE president (5/15/25): "We have a term 'groceries.' It's an old term but it means basically what you're buying, food, it's a pretty accurate term but it's an old fashioned sound but groceries are down." At least nobody is talking about Epstein anymore.

The Republicans control the House, the Senate, the SCOTUS, and the Presidency. They can change the House rules so the Continuing Resolution can be approved by a simple majority. The Republicans can avert the government shutdown if they want, and so the shutdown is definitely the Democrats' fault.

To be clear: no one is accusing Trump of being an Epstein perpetrator, so why is he blocking release of the files? Why does he threaten Congress saying a vote to release the files would be a “very hostile act to the administration”?

The one thing the left and the right can agree on: pedophiles are bad. Anyway, how long will it take for individual Republicans in Congress to personally attack the Epstein survivors?

Corporate governance is entirely broken. Musk spent two years destroying the Tesla brand and crashing sales globally. Today, he was rewarded with a temporary $29 billion bonus which will be returned if he is able to get his $56 billion bonus that a court already rejected.
