The Hive by @ronaldmalfi.bsky.social is an EPIC supernatural/sci-fi novel set in a neighborhood in a small town. You will not know what's happening but you won't be able to stop reading until the explosive ending. Highly recommend you pre-order.

Another January 6th terrorist who the orange felon illegally pardoned is heading back to prison, this time Andrew Paul Johnson of Florida has been convicted on state charges of child sex abuse and exposing himself to a child.

See the pattern? MAGA is infested with pedos.

So the Epstein files dump

1. Protected a lot of predictors

2. Created another partisan food fight.

3. Failed to create any obvious pathway for these women to get accountability.

4. Included a number of clearly unverified claims that can be used to undermine the very legit emails

Books I read in January. It was a very good month! I had DNFs but I might try them at another time.

Blanche sends Ghislane Maxwell to Club Fed, kills an investigation of Ross, and launches an investigation of the victim. A truly evil bastard.

Photo by Pierre Lavie. Yes this is me. And I threw my Leica. It landed on the bass plate with hardly a scratch. Another Photographer grabbed it along with my phone and I was able to track him later. I was held face down tear gas deployed right in front of me and pepper sprayed directly into the eye.

I’m sure Russia knows what we are going to do before the American people since they have so many people serving in the Trump admin sharing intel with them.

In a stunning moment, Congresswoman Joyce Beatty, who is a member of the Kennedy Center’s Board, just said the Trump team wouldn’t let her speak against the Kennedy Center’s renaming. Share this everywhere so all Americans see this.
