Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

I don't doubt for a second this was Epstein's true "purpose", and that he collected blackmail material (or kompromat, as you prefer) for multiple intelligence agencies, including the CIA and FBI.
This is why Barr had him killed. A bunch of old-school republican and Democratic monsters were in those videos.
This whole thing underscores how weak the corporate news sewers are. They're really poorly done PR, with very occasional random acts of journalism actually making it out the door.
They regularly squash stories that would be sensational and make them money. This is how we know they have been completely captured now.
This was never more evident than when every news agency reported the words of Maxwell, the child rapist pimp liar, that Trump did nothing wrong for three weeks straight
When the survivors showed up to tell their story crickets. They don't even care about things that would make them a shit ton of money if it means hurting the interests of people who own them.
It was that way in 2016 when they tried to sell that whole “Oh he’s not that bad” bullshit. And in 2003 when they helped lie us into war. Again. And in 2000 when the SCROTUS threw the election to Bush. Etc. Nothing changes except how patient the earth is with us.
For real, and if you look in history it goes all the way back the revolutionary war. It was always really messed up.
