  • Almost all of them are still too chickenshit to call out their dommy daddy publicly for this totally unjustified war though.

    Some Republicans in the House were more blunt when speaking anonymously. The terms of the deal contradicted the talking points that the White House asked its Republican allies to use, Republicans told Politico.

    One House Republican said the Trump administration was “lying to some degree” about the peace deal.

    “The president didn’t mean to, but he effectively acknowledged he lost the war. It’s no longer worth the economic price. This is the way out, as ugly as it is,” another House Republican told the publication.

    “He promised total surrender. And here it is,” a third House Republican said.



  • Yeah, that document is discussed pretty far into the article. CW: sexual abuse.

    In the emails, Ransome claimed that she knew a girl in Epstein’s sex-trafficking ring named Jen, who said she had sex with Trump. Ransome also claimed that Jen had told her that Trump had a predilection for nipples and that he had aggressively flicked and sucked hers. Ransome wrote that she had seen evidence when she shared a bathroom with Jen. “They looked incredibly painful as they were red and swollen and I remember wincing when I looked at them,” she wrote.

    Ransome’s credibility was not uncomplicated; she had made another claim that she possessed video footage of prominent men having sex with young girls in Epstein’s entourage. She later retracted the claims, saying she feared for herself and her family if she proceeded. But after a federal judge ordered the unsealing of some of the Giuffre case files in 2023, the document that connected Trump to the claim about abused nipples was among the material that came out. It was an unconfirmed allegation and had not been made publicly, but the disclosure led to some articles that were quickly lost in the swirl of election-year news.










  • Agreed. In my opinion, the problem is that the Democrats are trying to be the party of both labor and wealth. They are financially beholden the very billionaires that are making life unaffordable for normal people.

    Sure the Republicans are far worse in every respect, but the Democrats have no incentive to make the economy work for people like us when it is easier to chase billionaire donors for campaign funds. Once they’re captured by capital they don’t want to bite the hand that feeds them, so that means wealthy interests are far overrepresented in the halls of power.
