"This is not about looking at one individual email. This is not about a smoking gun. This is about putting all of it together and understanding the scale and the sophistication of this criminal sex trafficking operation – and the number of people who were not only aware, but actively involved in keeping it going."

‘Epstein would find unsupported children and tell them: I’ll save you’
At the Laugharne Weekend, Lucia Osborne-Crowley, one of four journalists in the courtroom daily for Ghislaine Maxwell’s trial, talked to Robin Ince about abuse, justice and the ‘rape myths’ that silence survivorsThe Nerve

"like opening six-figure accounts for teenage girls with no last names and/or Social Security numbers, keeping Epstein on as a client all the way up to the point investigators started sniffing around. Dimon was CEO when his firm paid more than $300 million of its loose couch change to settle its Epstein claims. And Dimon still is the CEO today."
"And nothing and nobody abetted Epstein like the world of finance itself, where even a little lawbreaking is fine if it’s a fine. Jamie Dimon was CEO of JP Morgan Chase where Epstein was a client starting in 2006, and chose to keep Epstein on as a client after his 2008 conviction. Then he turned a blind eye to all the money-laundering human-trafficking red-flaggy things Epstein was doing," (continued in /6)
"Jeffrey Edward Epstein was but one man, and everyone he danced with each made, then broke or kept, their own deals with that devil in exchange for money, connections, and/or insider information. The techbros, the finance bros, gossipmonger Peggy Siegal, Trump, they all got and gave things in their association with Epstein, and all conveniently turned a blind eye at best to his taboo proclivities."

"All of these individuals are committed to upending the post-WW2 order and removing any guardrails of accountability and transparency. One of their vehicles is Crypto, which has helped Trump’s family amass more than $5 billion in one year.
Who else was interested in Crypto? Jeffrey Epstein, of course."

"Trump’s 'Czar' of AI and Crypto is David Sacks, who is part of the South African PayPal Mafia, which includes Elon Musk, Trump’s number one donor, and Peter Thiel, a white nationalist billionaire who groomed JD Vance and was closely tied to Epstein and shared his dystopian, eugenics-based world view."

"This included Atkins’s relationship with an Ohio college, his age, his hair color, his general appearance, & details about his employment in Hilton Head, South Carolina. ...
Of course, the validated details about Atkins do not implicate Trump in any way. The White House, & the president himself, have furiously denied the woman’s claims since her testimony was publicly released, falsely claiming that the president has been 'exonerated.'”

#Trump raised the idea of #US forces seizing Iran’s #Kharg Island, its main #oil terminal in the Persian Gulf.
“Maybe we take Kharg Island, maybe we don’t. We have a lot of options,” Trump told the newspaper. “It would also mean we had to be there (on Kharg Island) for a while.”

US conservatives are convinced that protests against #Trump are staged by people being paid to protest, but pro-government demonstrations in #Iran represent the legitimate feelings of the country.
(nevermind the dissonance of then expecting the country to pivot after regime change)
The conservative movement is being run by some of the dumbest people these days.
And that's how we get folks cheering on the idiocy that Trump engages in.
"Why bother protesting tomorrow against the Trump regime? It’s a common question. As good as going out and voicing our collective outrage makes us feel in the moment, do mass anti-Trump protests really make any difference?
Yes, and for four reasons."
Jay Kuo enumerates these:
Bursting the illusion of invincibility
Applying Direct Political Pressure
Electoral Organizing Infrastructure
Building toward a Tipping Point.
