In every single interview I’ve done with international media since Trump took power I’ve been asked: Why are there no mass protests? There are many reasons, of course, but the utter refusal of the self-proclaimed “fourth estate” to communicate clearly what is happening has to be high on the list.

Cannot express how wild it is the right called leftists pedophiles for 8 years straight and then immediately voted for Epstein’s best friend who brought on three Epstein associates, one of whom was credibly accused of sex trafficking a minor. Pedocon theory is undefeated.

BREAKING: On a 2-1 vote, the DC Circuit rejects the Trump administration’s request that Trump be allowed to immediately fire Hampton Dellinger, the head of the U.S. Office of Special Counsel. DOJ asked the appeals court to stay a TRO, which the majority notes would be a “sharp departure” from norms.

Scan your parents photos. Digitize them. Put them in a place where they will be safe. Sure them with fam. It is one of the best things a person can do for fam. Everyone will adore it. Best thing ever. Unless you hate your fam. Then fuck it. Do it for you. Then you can hate look at them. Fuck em.

Interesting to see Tosca Musk get a friendly profile here. Around the time of the election I had reached out to her to report on something regarding her politics. She hung up on me and told her mother, who proceeded to bring up my race in a public tweet. www.hollywoodreporter.com/movies/movie...
