Trump treated Virginia Giuffre like his property. He talks about her being "stolen" by Epstein like she just switched jobs. This wasn't a broken non-compete clause. That’s human trafficking, plain and simple. Don’t stop talking about Epstein’s files. That pedo freak doesn’t deserve a moment's peace.

it is spine-chilling to learn that a 17-year-old Virginia Giuffre was, per Trump, the source of his rift with Epstein (who he claims “stole” her)

since of course, Virginia is no longer with us to respond

“Starmer spoke of “a sense of revulsion in the British public over Gaza.” Now he notices? The public were revolted when he was supporting cutting off water & power to #Gaza And when he was punishing Labour MPs who demanded an immediate ceasefire. Shameless. www.ft.com/content/a707...

US president says he is working on ‘various plans’ for the war-torn territory after holding talks with Sir Keir Starmer

These Israeli academics, artist & intellectuals calling for "crippling sanctions" against Israel have more courage in their little fingers than von der Leyen, Starmer, Merz & countless other invertebrate European "leaders" who bring shame to us all.

Meanwhile in Russia: Andrey Kartapolov, Chairman of the State Duma's Committee on Defense, mocked Trump's ultimatum, said that Trump, Merz and Starmer would get "diddly squat with pepper on top," and told America to look into giving Alaska back to Russia.

Why we have Emil Bove, folks.
Adeel Mangi would have been the first Muslim judge on a federal appeals court but for Republicans' relentless Islamophobic attacks and Democrats' failure to defend him from them

I wrote about a remarkable letter Mangi published Monday in which he defended himself

Adeel Mangi’s new letter about the anti-Muslim attacks on his judicial nomination holds a mirror up to the Senate. The reflection is ugly.

🚨BREAKING: Trump’s ex-lawyer Emil Bove was just confirmed to a LIFETIME judgeship - while Ryan Crosswell resigned from DOJ for REFUSING to follow his orders to cover up corruption.

The Senate just rewarded complicity. We won’t forget until every last coward is out of Congress.

1/10 Confirmation of Emil Bove to 3d Cir marks a turning pt, at least for me. It's one thing for craven R senators to approve parade of incompetents & lickspittles Trump put forward for his cabinet. An appalling dereliction of their constitutional duty, to be sure. But (always assuming we have...

Bill Maher used to have a massive liberal following, but he sold out for ratings—drinking the MAGA Kool-Aid was the last straw. Now? He can take his act somewhere else entirely. Maybe he’ll land an exclusive with Ghislaine Maxwell if his orange messiah ever gets the chance to pardon her
I sat down with Bill Maher to make my case to a different audience. Any time Dems have the opportunity to leave our bubble, we should do it. Give it a watch and help it in the algorithm!

Trump said Epstein "stole" employees like Virginia Giuffre from Mar-a-Lago, but no evidence ties him to Epstein’s trafficking. Giuffre, who died in April 2025, never implicated Trump. Let’s stick to facts.
Trump admits that Jeffrey Epstein “stole” young girls from him at Mar-a-Lago’s “spa” and brought them into his child sex trafficking ring. This includes Virginia Giuffre who died by suicide in April.
