Marjorie Taylor Greene was hired, trained, and paid by tech oligarchs & others from the very beginning to be a political troublemaker. With Trump’s downfall looming, Greene is now being strategically groomed to be JD Vance’s vice president.

Mark my words.

This is funny because it's true.
Posts that explain other people’s jokes do good here
This is funny because there is a whole genre of posts on here that link to a joke from elsewhere and restate it in simpler terms and buddy they ALWAYS do numbers

Alan Dershowitz is one of those claiming Epstein was not a pedophile because he pleaded guilty to one count of having sex for money with a 17-year-and-10-month-old person. "That’s not a pedophile." See this important response from Julia Brown, the brave reporter who broke the news on this

I like when Denmark plays in the Euros because all the scarves and signs say "Danmark" which gives it that "couldn't afford the rights to 'Denmark'" feel.

I regret to tell you that this just looks like guys telling homophobic jokes to me. None of them are funny, so it's admittedly hard to tell.
Mark Epstein asked his brother Jeffrey Epstein whether Steve Bannon could confirm if Putin has “the photo of Trump blowing Bubba. Jeffrey Epstein: "I thought I had tsuris,” using the Yiddish term for troubles. #OpDeathEaters

I know this is terrible but I'm thinking about how theres sites that allow these assholes to bet on international childrens sports, theres probably kids out there getting death threats from these losers for not catching a ball
The Athletic polled hundreds of players from across the NBA, NFL, MLB and NHL about their opinions surrounding how sports betting impacts players — the responses were haunting.

Just a note that the US passed landmark civil rights legislation enforcing the rights of disabled students to reasonable accommodation. This is a form of segregation. And segregationists like this also tend to believe in other forms of segregation.
A lot of education discourse is at root an inability to decide whether the purpose of our education system is to 1) teach material and measure learning 2) reward students who work hard 3) separate the smart kids (destined for smart guy jobs) from the dumb kids (destined to serve the smart guys)

I think Marge is placing a bet that Donny is going down.

Marge, Nancy and Lauren are not saints, but we can safely assume they are not linked to Epstein and thus not under direct control of foreigners, at least not as part of that deal.

People go down with ships when the alternative is worse.

Pierogi vendor had this piece of shit clocked
To be very clear, Virginia Giuffre was made to say she mistakenly identified Alan Dershowitz as one of the people who sexually abused her. Here is the proof from this week's Epstein files dropped by the House Oversight Committee.

The story of Trump is that racial resentment (combined with celebrity) can be used to massively juice right-wing turnout. And in the last election that even included younger voters. The question is how you turn out the overwhelming number of non-voters who hate that shit and politics in general.
Dem gains in this week's elections erased the inroads Trump made with non-white, young, and low-income voters in 2024. In fact, the R-to-D shift from 24 to 25 is double Trump's gains from 20-24. Claims of a GOP political realignment have been highly exaggerated

Most Americans don't realize damn near the reason there IS a country (molasses tax, meaning rum tax, meaning angry "founding fathers") then almost immediately NOT a country (Western PA rye whiskey rebellion) is big sugar.

And chattel slavery was why there was rum.
Sugarcane, its cultivation/production and ingestion, is and has always been a scourge upon the Earth
In "The Kidney and the Cane" (Duke, 2025), Alex M. Nading argues that the epidemic of chronic kidney disease among those living near and working in Nicaragua’s sugarcane plantations is not simply a result of climate change
— it is climate change.

I generally think the line Trump is drawing is helpful for our cause. People against pedo sex rings are LEFTISTS.
With his boat taking on water, Trump is having to complain as much about Republicans (Paul, Massie, Greene, etc.) as he is Democrats.

Odd that the DoJ is opening an investigation into the Epstein files since they said in July that there was no client list and nothing to release.

It’s important to remember that Donald Trump doesn’t like even the people around him that praise him 24/7z The only people he ever seemed to genuinely like were Roy Cohn and Jeffrey Epstein
I am begging America to not be stupid enough to embrace a racist and an antisemite because Donald Trump thinks she's a meanie. Just grab some popcorn and watch the Nazis fight.

the absolute best case scenario is trump becomes so unpopular that his own party loses faith in his ability to maintain governing power regardless of election rigging, troop deployment, etc, in which case they will cut him loose and make all that stuff even harder for him to pull off.

Honestly, the default position of everyone ought to be that Trump is hiding some really horrific acts. No other rational reason to explain this bizarre behavior other than he fears it would end his presidency.
Marjorie Taylor Greene on Trump: “It’s astonishing really how hard he’s fighting to stop the Epstein files from coming out that he actually goes to this level.”

Whatever Trump is desperately covering up about Epstein, it’s clearly so bad that he thinks it could destroy him
