Ghislaine Maxwell lied about Trump never going to Epstein's house (directly contradicted by her email correspondence with Epstein), and she was rewarded for that lie with a transfer to a cushier prison. The coverup is happening in plain sight.

Here's what I mean when I say it's very clear Ghislaine lied.
A few weeks after Blanche's chummy interview, in which Ghislaine (among other things) denied there were cameras at Epstein's brownstone, this unsourced NYT article that did not mention Blanche posted pics making it clear there were.

I have it on good authority that there’s an informal blacklist of NY business people that the big banks won’t lend money to, and Trump was put on it in the 80s, not just due to his casino bankruptcies. There’s a reason Trump‘s personal checking is capital one, and that only DWS would lend him money.

Got turned down on a piece about ICE in Chicago for an international news org because they believed I couldn’t be objective about my neighbors getting kidnapped. And well, guilty as charged I guess.

My takeaway from every new Epstein revelation is that some powerful people victimized many powerless young women, many more knew, some actively enabled it--and we're still being told that MeToo and accountability for sexual violence have gone too far

"In the weeks before Andrew Cuomo’s mayoral dream went up in smoke on election night, a handful of independent spending groups backed by New York City’s oligarchy spent more than $55 million supporting the ex-governor or attacking his ultimately victorious rival, Assemblymember Zohran Mamdani."
Cuomo Backers Burned $65 Per Vote, Including $13.3 Million From Bloomberg
A blizzard of outside spending on ads, including a spot that linked Zohran Mamdani to 9/11, failed to move voters and may have even backfired.

I have to imagine far-right Catholics are really struggling with the fact that they can now hear this stuff in English directly from the pope.
“How did you receive the foreigner? And did you receive him and welcome him or not?”
Pope Leo XIV challenges us to reflect on the moral cost of policies that target deeply-root immigrants and families.

They’re around the age I was when Obama won. That feeling of someone who looks like you finally rising to power. It’s inspiring.

You know something I'm *really* enjoying about this Mamdani win is that Millennials and Gen Z, consistently harangued for not being politically active, said "aight, bet. Watch this." And now the Boomers and the entire entrenched political apparatus are frantically saying "NO NO NOT LIKE THAT!!!!"
