Back in 2011, George W. Bush warned about isolationism, protectionism, and nativism. MAGA today is exactly what he was warning about.

All of the money that changed hands in the Teapot Dome scandal totaled less than $10 million after adjusting for inflation, and it was considered so corrupt we still teach it in high school government classes a century later.
Corruption so pungent, it wafts right off the page:

Lobbyists who do pardon deals “say their going rate is $1 million. Pardon-seekers have offered some lobbyists close to the president success fees of as much as $6 million if they can close the deal.”

Trump says the DOJ is being “forced” to work on the Epstein files and demands they say “NO MORE” and “Release all of their names” of Democrats in the Epstein files to “embarrass them.”

This is not the language of an innocent man.

America has 925 billionaires as of this year. Collectively they have a record $6.9 trillion in wealth.

The bottom 50% of Americans control $4.2 trillion in wealth.

When 925 people control more wealth than half a country’s population, we have a very serious problem.

Even truth without justice helps authoritarianism rise. That is what we are seeing with the Epstein file dumps. The rich and powerful perpetrators faced no consequences, and accountability is treated as optional.

What we’re being told is that a guy who is an adjudicated rapist, who was credibly accused of sexual assault by dozens of women, who paid hush money to a porn star, who cheated on all his wives, who is mentioned hundreds of times in the Epstein files, couldn’t possibly be a sexual predator.

There are so many people out there, mostly men, who really sincerely perceive not being permitted to bully others as a form of bullying. You see this play out over blocklists all the time - especially blocklists used by Black and trans women to minimize harassment.

What strikes me about these Epstein materials - there are really no surprises. The 1000+ victims have already named all these men.

Even Bill Gates. His wife publicly said she divorced him because of his relationship with Epstein.

We just don't believe women, systemically.

That we are all waiting for a dead man’s files, instead of believing live victims, is in itself the moral character this country, and has been. It is disgusting.

But, bring them on and punish those all. Finally.
