1/ The Epstein files don’t have an incentive to lie for a coverup.
A convicted sex trafficker in search of a pardon does.
The dead giveaway: DOJ can simply release all the Epstein files, but refuses.
Also, what's with the wiggle words in Blanche's statement?
Q: Do you support the DOJ seeking an interview w/Ghislaine Maxwell?
TRUMP: I don't know anything about it. They're gonna what?
Q: The deputy AG reached out to Maxwell
T: It sounds appropriate to do, yeah. I don't really follow that. The witch hunt you should be talking about is they caught Obama

notice that all they do when they talk about the need to stop talking about the Epstein story is to talk about the Epstein story so let’s not tell them not to stop talking about the need to stop talking about Epstein so that they will keep talking about him 🤫🤫
In new CBS poll Trump clocks in at an ugly 42%-58% (-16). This is a 22!!!!!!! point drop from early February when he came in at 53%-47% in this poll. Six months in the American people are not buying what he's selling. 1/
I’d say that @stephencolbert.bsky.social is (with the lone exception of @maddow.msnbc.com) the most brilliant, humane person I’ve encountered in broadcasting. His mind works faster than anyone else’s at a level of sophistication that is unmatchable. Genuinely a generational talent.
The flooding that devastated Central Texas was the country’s deadliest catastrophe for children in recent memory. More than a quarter of the people who died — at least 133 at last count — were still in elementary school.
MURPHY: The private sector isn't going to fight Russian and Chinese propaganda around the world, right?
WALTZ: They're going to show the power of the private sector

it's amusing to me to see Trumpers banging on about Bondi orchestrating an Epstein coverup while refusing to devote an extra thought to who she would be trying to protect
The big pubs are scared of Trump and Elon and more generally Megan McArdle type tsk-tsking. You've got like a hundred fatalities in catastrophic flooding in Texas. The position in charge of liaising/communicating emergencies to locals was vacant because of DOGE. And I'm seeing stories about ...
Reporter: What happened to 90 deals in 90 days?

TRUMP: It's all done. I told you we'll make some deals, but for the most part we're gonna send a letter
Gary Lineker has hit out at the BBC over its refusal to show a documentary about the plight of medics in Gaza, saying it should 'hold its head in shame'

There seems to be a never ending list of people that are comfortable with killing disabled people but don’t dare attack the Dear Leader and his lackeys.
Well done Labour voters
