Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

So....literal murder porn?
When I said I miss the old internet this was not what I was thinking of!
Let's not gloss over this part:
...that the Department of Homeland Security had also posted a few hours earlier.
It's all fucked up. I can only hope Easmin's family sues and get a massive payout for the extra trauma inflicted by having this tragedy exploited for political purposes by both DHS and Trump. Truly ghoulish.
Where are the Epstein files?
We are way past that. He’s distracting from his loss to Iran.
We are NOT past that. That's what he wants. We haven't even gotten 10% of what the FBI have.
For anyone who wants to browse what the public do have:
EpsteinExposed - for deep dives of who is involved and how everyone is linked
JMail - gmail format archive of his emails, easier to browse by contacts/specific persons of interest
I won't be "past that" till the victims get justice.
As I’ve said all along, if you import the Third World, you become the Third World
You know I think this is the closest my aggressively pragmatic self comes to feeling the juxtaposition of sacred and profane. There are two metrics that we use to describe our species: intelligence and prosocial behavior, and this flapping husk shits on both.
I think along similar lines, but I've taken a third descriptor onboard: disaster-prone. A mirthless history professor once told me that "history is a litany of unintended consequences". Everything about the world and our history makes so much more sense if you mentally allow for the fact that we as a species tend to make rather absurd mistakes at scale, and now at the height of our global culture, our powers at their greatest, our need for common sense, tolerance, and cooperation at their most urgent in history due to impending climate collapse, geopolitical tension, and wealth inequality, the most powerful nation in history elected, twice, the most foolish, wicked man alive.
A single person is still intelligent and prosocial. I sincerely agree. But humanity i think has a critical mass at which point all of that is hidden behind layers of systematically disastrous behaviour.
Fuck the 25th. We need Secret Service to man up.
The fuck?
He's distracting from Epstein.
He brought up Epstein to distract from the a pointless war only to now attempt to distract Epstein again. Trump is just tumbling down an endless flight of stairs at this point.
It's a distraction from the disastrous outcome of his vibe warmongering campaign in Iran, which itself was a distraction from the Epstein files.
In about a year or so, they'll nuke California to distract from the cannibalism.
What the fuck?
Does Trump still have the faculties to handle his social media posts, or is this Stephen Miller, et al?
Trump is as evil as can be, but he’s also hanging on by a thread. The ghouls around him are responsible for this to some degree that may turn out to be incredibly high.
Last couple of posts "from him" that I've read are way too cohesive to be actually from him. The most recent was obviously written by an LLM, em dashes and all.
What an absolute ghoul.
The absolute hilarity of this, insofar as there can be, is that ICE was involved in the arrest, meaning he is likely in federal custody awaiting deportation.
So there is a non zero chance this guy gets deported and faces no consequences.
Trump be nimble Trump be quick. Trump goes lower than a limbo stick.
Non paywall?
