From the Dems House Judiciary report:
Katie Johnson, 13, reported Epstein and Trump argued over who would take her virginity, and Epstein became angry and violently raped her when he learned that Donald Trump had done so. As shown by official FBI interview notes, Johnson, through her attorney, reported these alleged crimes to the FBI.

The Trump administration targets another Democratic-led state in the midterms by asking Washington to sequester ballots in next week’s election that it says could be cast by noncitizens.

Bracket the bigotry for a second. We currently have U.S. troops deployed in Arab states engaged in an offensive war against Iran that has repeatedly triggered retaliation against those countries (with further escalation imminent in both directions). Has RFK ever said thank you?
RFK: "There's five hundred million Arabs in the world. And yet they don't produce science. They don't win the Nobel Prize. They don't win the Fields Prize. They don't win the Wolf Prize. They don't produce literature."

Where we are as a country: in opposition to the establishment of democracy in Venezuela because it could infringe on the extractive contracts the president’s buddies have arranged with the current regime.

At least 18 early voting centers in rural Alaska have not opened as of Friday, state Sen. Bill Wielechowski says. The commonality? All the affected areas have at least a 60% Alaska Native population — with nearly a dozen having Alaska Native populations upwards of 90%: https://demdock.com/4yTW5Ze

Pretty wild: Even some MAGA figures are now panicking about the early vote. And for good reason: The electorate is 11 points more Dem than at this point in 2024, and Latino vote is surging. On the pod @simonwdc.bsky.social is very illuminating on what the data shows: newrepublic.com/article/2171...

Rubio apparently forgot that his boss incited a deadly insurrection designed to overturn an election, and then he got re-elected president 4 years later

I am old enough to remember when politicians felt the need to hide behind euphemism and obfuscation. As frustrating as these obfuscations were I hope it is becoming clear to all that they were an advance, historically speaking

Gratified to see widely respected journalist Margaret Sullivan endorse my view that major media must depict Trump’s abuse of power as a “five-alarm fire” – because it is.

Sadly, if this allegation is true, it wouldn’t be the first time Donald Trump was found to have raped a woman “the jury’s finding that Mr Trump ‘sexually abused’ Ms Carroll implicitly determined that he forcibly penetrated her digitally-in other words, that Mr Trump in fact did rape Ms Carroll”
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.

Not a big story, it's just the Attorney General working with an imprisoned pedophile to help cover up the pedophile President's crimes conducted with his best friend for 15 years, a pedophile who the President sent, as a birthday card, a drawing of a naked adolescent girl.
This report is genuinely overwhelming, in terms of the evidence both against Trump and of a ham-fisted cover-up. Including one instance in which Ghislaine Maxwell was actually about to mention one of Trump's young accusers and Todd Blanche told her to stop talking. The media response is "yawn."

Is it because of Trump's visceral loathing of Ilhan Omar and willingness to just let his racism fly? AES? The Iran war? I know it's always been simmering under the surface but what's brought on this latest paroxysm of Islamophobia?
I remember when anti-Arab racism was the only kind of racism that could be publicly expressed without people looking at you with shock. I hated it then, and I hate it now.

He keeps hinting in his speeches that there are going to be some big surprises next week and a couple people in his administration are going to be remembered in history books. It seems like no one really knows what to do with that information so it’s just passing casually
