I can't really believe it but it seems to be the case that the Times has not covered a credible accusation of rape against the President of the United States, but has two solid stories on Obama's cheesecake factory quip.

Yeah, raises some real philosophical questions about how much computer-driven catastrophe can be tolerated for the sake of line go up. Glad there's gonna be a blue-ribbon panel deciding that.

Feels like 80% of supposed journalism now is just 'Mr. Trump responded at length.'

New AI, who dis

Young ‘uns: this stuff happened once a week during Obama’s presidency. Dijon mustard. Moving a bust of Churchill. Inviting a rapper to the White House. Putting his feet up on his desk. They’d scream and cry for days about how effete and snobby and Black he was and how misinderstood they were.

691 words about Cheesecake. 434 words about rape.

The next congress can impeach him just for this, you know. There doesn't need to be a reason beyond "is a lying bigoted ignorant chud who misinforms Americans whenever he opens his mouth." Doesn't have to be a grand impeachment theory beyond Hopelessly Unfit.

Beatrice Keul, testified that she was introduced by Jeffrey Epstein to Donald J Trump, who then brutally raped her in a hotel room in Atlantic City, NJ, and her claims were deemed credible by a panel of the House Judiciary Committee today. The NYT has decided that this is not reportable news.

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

It's really damning. The accusations are numerous and well-supported. But I was really struck by the descriptions of Trump's behavior -- the name dropping, strong-arming, and attempts to buy off silence. His gross rivalry with Epstein. It's all so familiar. It's shit he's been doing his entire life.

We learned today that Republicans have been covering up allegations by 5 women that Donald Trump raped or assaulted them _in Jeffrey Epstein's presence_ Two were underage. Meanwhile, House Republicans:

luddites will say AI is useless but they overlook the massive productivity gains that can come from offloading the task of remembering anything at all about your children

He's lying of course, but it would be AMAZING if the lesson Trump takes out of the midterms is "voters love it when I talk about men's asses, from now on all my speeches have to be about manbutts."

*when a dem is in power* The tree of liberty must be watered with the blood of tyrants *when a republican is in power* criticizing the government is treason actually

If a govt is facing an irrational and largely drug-fueled cult that thinks (1) an apocalypse is probably coming and (2) they, personally, will be the ones shepherding it into being then what's the single worst thing that govt could do in that situation, do you think. HA. Nope, you're way off.

So you know how MAGA foreign policy seems to just be these dudes ticking through the list of every major policy disaster in US history, trying to top each one? Well buckle in because

They should give him the Nobel Prize for Dementia.

They like Trump and want to help him rule us like a king. They think they are his little helpers

I can't think of any non-explicitly-evil idea any billionaire has had for at least 10 years now. Every idea is something like "what if cars ran on babies" and is named something like WeEatBabies dot crypto.

Wild that the Trump family is very clearly in the pocket of multiple(!) foreign dictators and apparently nobody even cares. This used to be the stuff of taut thrillers, now it's just oh there's Jared doing bribe stuff again

Trump doesn't have a lot of core beliefs but "don't believe rape victims" has been his top one for a loooong time now and we all, to a person, know why.

Republicans trained themselves to spew this inane codeword-heavy pro wrestling banter because, in general, it works. There's a broad base of hateful American rubes that love it. Do they love it enough to put up with doubled gas prices? Now that I don't know.

I’m telling you that the extreme exposure to scams is a big part of the reason so many people are negative about our economic future.

I dunno who set the room for this event but props on them for seating Stephen Miller in direct sunlight. If Trump didn't wrap things up early it might have worked.
