  • Who fucking cares? What is it going to do really? There has been so much publicity of their relationship, it doesn’t change anything. Will it result in charges against Trump? Unlikely, the only one I know of who was willing to put herself and her family at risk, is dead (suicide).

    His supporters will find a way to excuse anything away. There could be a picture of Trump assaulting a young teen and they would just say it’s not his fault she looked older than she was.

    To those in this thread saying anything released shouldn’t be redacted, remember there were victims, this wasn’t just Jeff and Don having a brobait with each other.

    I’m sick of the Democrats and their shitty platitudes, because that’s all this is. Demand compassion and due process for the millions being terrified by federally protected kidnappers. Demand that Republicans meet to discuss the phasing out of some of the TPS rules (temporary is in the name and just because there is an EO doesn’t mean there can’t be a law that changes it). Demand that we stop defending the atrocities of megalomaniacs around the world. Demand that the legislative branch takes back the power of the purse and writes laws to affect trade.

    Might be the only time I agree with the ball of congealed Cheeto vomit, but why the fuck are we still talking about Epstein?









  • Actual article title (now, as it may have been changed).

    Volvo Group prepares for 800 layoffs across three US sites amid tariff challenges

    Volvo Group plans to lay off as many as 800 workers at three U.S. facilities over the next three months due to market uncertainty and demand concerns in the face of President Donald Trump’s tariffs, a spokesperson said on Friday.

    Volvo Group North America said in a statement it has told employees it plans to lay off 550-800 people at its Mack Trucks site in Macungie, Pennsylvania, and two Volvo Group facilities in Dublin, Virginia and Hagerstown, Maryland.




  • It’s such an easy concept. I can’t figure out if they actually don’t get it because they are so narcissistic and why would anyone appreciate a few million in aid or if they are just playing stupid to posture to their base and be able to do even worse while everyone is distracted.

    I think the later might be more accurate and I’m really curious what else I am missing.


  • I was a Bernie and Hillary voter as well. I also failed to convince a number of other Bernie voters that they had to support Hillary.

    She held too far center for too long and a lot of Bernie voters didn’t trust her or the party. Hell, even when she announced a push for an amendment in her first 30 days I didn’t buy it would happen but I also knew we needed to keep Trump out.

    Really I still didn’t trust the party. I still don’t think we have enough progressives and will still do what we need to keep corporate donors happy above the voting public.

    Money is speech and it has the loudest platform.








  • She’s trying to save face. She has no power or jurisdiction here.

    Once she dismissed the case and it headed to the 11th on appeal, she lost any actual ability to do anything regarding the case with the exception of orders she made that were not on appeal (there were none).

    Additionally she has no power to release volume 2 of the report. That power is only held with the DOJ. Jack Smith even stated that it should not be released as long as the case against the conspirators still survived. Releasing that report would likely damage the case against them. However, if that happens, it would likely mean Trump would not need to pardon them to stop the prosecution. While the report may be seen as a threat to Trump, anyone who supports him refuses to believe he did anyone wing and I doubt anyone who would actually read it would have a change of heart.
