Pam Bondi is Donald Trump’s Ghislaine Maxwell. USAG Bondi is knowingly hiding a detailed Epstein report from the American public — which unsurprisingly includes our child rapist POTUS — protecting him from a truth which would turn stomachs throughout the world.

I know everyone is fixated on the Trump/Musk drama, but IREHR dropped a bombshell new report today that I think you're gonna wanna read. The director of the MAHA Institute has a history of promoting hardcore antisemitic conspiracies and anti-science quackery. irehr.org/2025/06/05/m...

SpaceX supposedly enforces a zero-tolerance policy for drug use due to federal contract obligations with NASA and other agencies, which impacts security clearances and typically leads to termination. Why SpaceX’s board ok with this?

There are 2 previous historical cases of countries destroying their science and universities, crippling them for decades: Lysenkoism in the USSR and Nazi Germany.

A lot of government workers go unnoticed—until they’re gone. The problem with letting the ultra-rich call the shots is they don’t see us. To them, we’re disposable… until the day they need clean water, a working 911 line, or someone to put out the fire.
