Today, at a press conference, survivors spoke at length and in detail about the abuse they suffered at the hands of Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell, who was recently moved to a minimum-security federal prison camp by the Trump administration.

Epstein survivors begged Trump to release their files. He called it a “hoax.”
"President Trump: You have so much influence and power in this situation. Please use [it] to help us."

I am a 70-year-old, happily married man. I have never been with a prostitute in my life. I never wanted to. However, if I ever changed my mind, I would choose the top-ranking whores at CBS. Clearly, they work cheap. Just ask Stephen Colbert.

This afternoon, the Trump administration officially shut down the LGBTQ Youth Specialized Services program within the 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline. The program allowed callers under 25 to speak with counselors trained to support LGBTQ youth, an option that has now been eliminated.

A gentle reminder that the VA getting rid of 30,000 people instead of 80,000 people isn’t a win.

Arresting 80 year old Vets who fought for our freedom in the exact location where 1500 insurrectionists stormed our democracy and were then pardoned by a felon. I’m trying to wrap my head around this.

I suppose all this tripe about Biden's age might be important to know, but it belongs on the History Channel. It's not news. You know what's news? The president deploying the military against US citizens. The Billionaire Bailout Bill. DOGE getting access to our private data. THAT is news.

DOGE was supposed to save $2T, saved $160B, cost $135B in buyouts, and nuked $323B in tax revenue. So basically, we paid $300B for all that chaos.

Gonna say something obvious to most: real masculinity defends the defenseless, punches up not down, has compassion, and fights only on behalf of others to battle injustice or evil. It doesn’t just lift weights and tweet in all caps and listen to Rogan and grow a beard to feel accepted by other men
