The NYT story does not even include the word rape. Not once.

nytimes.comHouse Democrats Call for Special Counsel to Scrutinize Trump’s Ties to EpsteinThe request comes as Democrats are working to paint Republicans as corrupt and highlight their plans to investigate Trump should they win the midterm elections.

@raskin.house.gov is on @lawrenceodonnell.bsky.social talking about this

Andy Craig@andycraig.bsky.social

I know there's a lot going on but I feel it should probably be more of an above-the-fold story that members of Congress released a thoroughly documented report directly accusing the president of the United States of being a serial rapist.

NEW: "Donald Trump was an active participant in Jeffrey Epstein’s sexual abuse of young women during the mid-to-late 1990s," per new House Judiciary Dem report. Report has new allegation that Trump raped a 24-year-old and then promised the victim a visa & NYU admission, demanding she stay quiet.

Last Week Tonight with John Oliver@lastweektonight.com

This week’s main story is about how more and more white nationalists, antisemites, and Nazi sympathizers seem to be integrating into the Republican Party, how some of them are currently running for office, and how old you can be for JD Vance to consider you “a very young boy.”

So I don't want to oversell this but our 2024 EV percentage after day 2 was R+2.5. Right now it's D+17.7 So a 20 point swing in the largest suburban county in the country that had resisted some previous blue waves.

On the Media@onthemedia.bsky.social

An attempt to draw negative press at a rally for Abdul El-Sayed ended up working in the Democratic Senate candidate’s favor. @marisakabas.bsky.social revealed the identity of the heckler, who has ties to Christian nationalists and formerly worked for Sen. Hawley. lnk.to/onthemedia/b...
