At least once a week in my feed get the MAGA post that says if Obama or Biden had Epstein evidence against Trump, they would have used it against him. Nonsense. Epstein used Trump to launder Russian and probably other crime money through his golf club memberships and condominiums. For Trump, a recidivist welch who could no longer go to a legitimate bank for loans, this was easy access to lots of cash, albeit very illegal. Not to worry since the FBI and CIA would have known about these transactions and likely helped facilitate them in many cases. These are the same people who encouraged Colombian cocaine kingpins to invest their profits in NASDAQ for fuck’s sake. Revealing Trump’s crimes while concealing the government’s role would have been tricky at best. Ironic that, Trump’s role as a Deep State operative not to be revealed. That left a bust for sexual predation, which Epstein well documented in images and video. But you can’t produce visual evidence of one man’s crimes within this cesspool without reasonable people asking, “Who are the others?” They didn’t want to go there so Garland, like several gutless Attorneys General before him, chose to kick the scum-covered can down the road. The US Government has provided cover for Epstein-enabled degenerates for 30-odd years, whether their name is Trump or not. But not willing to leave well enough alone, and true to his deep idiocy, a Trump campaign plank was to open the files, apparently confident he could scrub 40,000 mentions of his name before the release. He doubled down by hiring actual morons to oversee the files, based primarily on their years of screaming into podcast microphones that the files prove beyond doubt the Clintons, various Jews and rich blacks are depraved. When his chosen imbeciles looked at the actual evidence, who was involved, and what crimes beside pedophilia went on unabated long after Epstein’s laughable trafficking conviction, you may have heard them gasp. Not Bondi, she was Florida’s AG when Epstein was busted and apparently attended some of his gatherings as a young woman. If you wonder why Kash Patel always looks bug-eyed when questioned about Epstein, he is either unable to get his head around the depth of depravity the files reveal and the names involved, or is absolutely gobsmacked that he was installed to exculpate it all. Alas, I think the Epstein files will follow 9/11 and the Kennedy/King assassinations into the black hole of unproven and partially proven “conspiracy theories” (like the shit didn’t really happen). Smoking guns spoil the fun. MSM, which has always been state media and is now more consolidated than ever, will do its best to ensure that happens. It’s an international story, so maybe some enterprising journalist in Andorra or Botswana will follow the millions of unredacted threads (no damning pornographic video or pictures allowed) to form a cohesive narrative. Only to be found having committed suicide by shooting themselves in the head, twice.

I installed Mint on my 72 year old fathers new Thinkpad. He loves it and has had relatively few complaints.

The way things are going …if you want a new fridge at an affordable price the ones with ads will be your only choice. This is peak late stage capitalism with no consumer protections or anti monopoly practices in place

That would still make Chicago. The third largest city in America further than 100 miles from the border.

Lake Michigan isn't a border...

Bad in the sense that regular ass people will be fucked over the most by shit like this.

I haven't seen much news on this but it's pretty bad going by the numbers.

Key Points

Builder sentiment in June dropped 2 points from May to 32 on the National Association of Home Builders (NAHB)/Wells Fargo Housing Market Index (HMI). Anything below 50 is considered negative.

Analysts had been expecting a slight improvement, given recent tariff negotiations and pullbacks by the Trump administration.

This index has only seen a lower reading than June’s level twice since 2012.

 

Arliya Martin accepted her high school diploma with relief and gratitude. It was her ticket to better-paying work, she felt, after getting kicked out of high school and toiling for eight years at factory jobs to support her children.

“This is a new path for me to get on with my life,” she said.

But Martin didn’t take any classes or pass any tests to receive her degree. She got it in July from a school where students can get a high school diploma for $465.

Unlike public schools, formal homeschooling programs or traditional private schools, nearly 9,000 private schools in Louisiana don’t need state approval to grant degrees. Nearly every one of those unapproved schools was created to serve a single homeschooling family, but some have buildings, classrooms, teachers and dozens of students.

 

A wonderful downtown pedestrian area has been ruined because a few people didn't like the noise.
