For four years, Sen. Ron Wyden has followed Epstein’s money. Now he’s found an FBI interview with one of Epstein’s bankers that the Trump regime kept out of the Epstein files. My write-up in the link in the comments.

I recommend people read this to get a sense of the president's grave cognitive impairment. Trump is either unwilling or unable (or maybe both) to answer the questions he's actually asked, so he just rants and raves while the interviewers do their best to provide structure to his random brain firings

Here's why you can blame the government for your high interest rates. They're running deficits at war and recession levels, even with unemployment low. All that government borrowing puts upward pressure on interest rates, making loans more expensive for the rest of us. youtu.be/DLsWHniyg0Q

The Trump administration EPA just repealed most of the 2024 carbon pollution rules for coal and gas power plants. Now they’re also trying to get rid of the remaining federal greenhouse gas rules for power plants too.

California's 99 largest corporate and right-wing campaign contributors have also given $83.9M to Democrats currently serving in state office. This legalized corruption is the root of our dysfunction. We must get Big Money out of politics.

Quite a recent pattern: - GOP candidate in Fla. marched alongside neo-Nazis - Husted fires aide over Nazi photo - Collins fires aide over swastika images - State Dept hires speechwriter whom DeSantis fired over video with Nazi imagery - Trump rewards Paul Ingrassia, who said he has a “Nazi streak”

Republican state legislative candidate marched alongside neo-Nazis, adding to pattern
As a rule, state House candidates’ backgrounds tend not to generate national headlines, but once in a while, there are important exceptions.

All of this is a lie. Anyone who has visited recently knows the KC was not "in a virtual state of collapse," and anyone who can read a tax filing can see that it was not "losing hundreds of millions of dollars". In fact, its finances were pretty healthy UNTIL Trump trashified it.

This guy gets it www.nytimes.com/2026/09/15/o...
Donald Moynihan, a professor of public policy at the University of Michigan, pointed out in an email that Trump's distortions of reality have an impact on much more than beliefs in his claims about what he was doing on Sept. 11:
Trump's loose relationship with reality extends to the issues that define our life, like inflation, public health, the war with Iran, our alliances or whether our elections are valid. For every seemingly harmless story where he inserts himself into the tableaux of history, there is a torrent of dark conspiracies that shape how we are governed.
At this moment, Americans are legitimately worried that the Supreme Court might grant Trump a license to threaten the integrity of the midterm elections because not despite - of his long history of lying about election fraud.
Every time he insults another country or world leader, it feels less like a deliberate diplomatic strategy as his followers insist, and more like an indicator of the absence of such work, marking the indifference of a social media addict craving his next dopamine hit.

Decades from now the FBI, if it still exist, will release documents showing Trump was in fact a Russian - Israeli spy, and a human / drug / rape trafficking, money laundering, child rapist, and that they all knew it all along but for "national security" reasons kept it hidden.

I keep thinking about Trump saying "a lot of people could get hurt" if the Epstein files were released. And, of course, when he referred to "a lot of people," he was referring to himself. But I think an additional layer to this would be "Trump Mega Donors." He'd just let everyone else get run over.
