The most shocking thing to me regarding Trump / MAGA is how shocked everyone else seems to be that it has happened.

The best moment in the History of the Word Caucasian came in a series of Supreme Court cases during the immigration panic of the 1920s.

The Naturalization Act of 1790 said that only "white" people could be naturalized as American citizens, but that only raised questions about what counted as white?
It stems from a literal belief that white peoples descended from the Caucasus mountains after Noah’s ark

Reminder: The DOJ already has possession of all of the evidence presented to the grand jury. They don't need permission from the court to release it. This was an attempted distraction. They expected the judge to refuse this request.
A judge has ordered the unsealing of grand jury transcripts from the 2005 & 2007 investigation into Jeffrey Epstein.

The Epstein Files Transparency Act compels the DOJ, FBI and federal prosecutors by 19 December to disclose the tranche of materials amassed during investigations into Epstein.

A similar request was rejected earlier this year, but a law passed by Congress last month overrides it.

This administration is filled with the absolute dumbest, meanest, cruelest pieces of shit.

And they're so *proud* to be dumb, mean, cruel pieces of shit too. They delight in it. They brag about it.

It's vice signaling as a way of life.

If a Psych prof assigns students an essay response paper with explicit guidelines and then flunks a student for turning in a paper that ignores those guidelines but instead makes vague gestures to "the Bible" then THAT IS NOT A VIOLATION OF THE STUDENT'S RELIGIOUS FREEDOM.
