A video posted in the past week, claiming to expose fraud at Somali-run child care centers in Minnesota, has been viewed by millions of people. The scale of the reaction to the video highlights the way the White House seeds narratives, then rewards sympathetic creators who deliver viral content.
An Intense White House Response From a Single Viral Video
A video purporting to expose extensive fraud at child care centers in Minnesota shows the relationship between the Trump administration and self-described citizen journalists.

This is sinister. If you're wondering why so many people don't report sexual assault, this is why.
jesus the Palm Beach Police really sought arrest warrants against underage Epstein victims for coming forward and cooperating, and (purported) admitting to crimes, and it caused the victims to become uncooperative with the federal investigation

Remember when Jeffrey Epstein and Donald Trump’s lawyer, Alan Dershowitz, wrote an op-ed trying to justify having sex with kids?

Seems relevant now.

ProPublica could not find evidence Trump ever lived at either of the two Florida properties he claimed as principal residences in the 1990s.

Legal documents and other records from the period give his address as Trump Tower in Manhattan.

If you’re looking for something to do, start working on overturning citizens united in your state. States control the power corporations have. Take their political power away with a ballot initiative. Here’s how: open.substack.com/pub/robertre...
How to Get Rid of "Citizens United"
We can do away with it without a new Supreme Court. Nor do we need a constitutional amendment. There’s a far simpler way.

I remain convinced DOGE was a massive, planetary scale data exfiltration scheme and that Palantir has it all now
Musk's people infiltrated the GSA technology arm early on and demanded root-level access to computer systems, trying to circumvent normal security procedures. Here's one example where they pushed so hard they forced someone to resign rather than give in.

Why did they do this?

This is what is happening.
We spent a year investigating billionaires for @washingtonpost.com.

We found: the wealthiest 100 Americans gave $1.1 billion to influence the 2024 elections — 140x more than they did in 2000. And almost all of that giving boosted Republicans.

CNN reports that only 2% of the 600+ people arrested without probable cause or warrants in the Chicagoland area in violation of a standing court order had any criminal records at all.

The idea that these are the worst people on the planet only makes sense if you see them as Nazis saw Jews in 1940.

This may be Trump's perfect social media post. A true work of art. He confirms:

✅He personally directs criminal investigations.
✅He is targeting opponents.
✅Epstein "records" exist and he knows the contents.

Bonus points for connecting it to investigation of his fondness for Putin.👀

After the revelations in these 23k+ Epstein emails, I’m convinced these billionaires didn’t manipulate the last election to keep Trump out of prison, they did it to keep ALL of them out of prison. May ANYONE involved with Epstein rot in hell and prison, you soulless pieces of shit.
