The day Epstein died, many of us believed he'd been 'snuffed'...but by the felon but NOT Democrats...There was always the possibility that there were Democrats as well a Repuglicans both on the "list" but to us, the felon wanted none of the lists with HIS name on it to pop up. THAT was OUR BELIEF and WE'RE STICKING TO IT.....
Epstein got house arrest after his federal conviction, but he was allowed to go to his office everyday where he had sex with girls while his guards stood outside doing nothing. That's the kind of deal Acosta made with Epstein, and Trump rewarded Acosta with a cabinet position.
My point of view...you hang out with bottom feeders, you are one. Wouldn't it be ironically delightful if the convicted sexual predator's presidency's down fall was due to his proven association with a sexual predator. There are already plenty of pictures of the two of them in circulation.
His "credibility" as the person he's been proven to be with the various scams and questionable actions since 1987 would certainly indicate your premise,...I even believe ( my conspiracy theory) that he had someone push Ivana down the stairs...so it's easy to believe anything we want about this monster..
The walkout by Bongo today seems like it might put some cracks in the wall. Wonder what he’ll be saying on pods if he goes back to that. They might have to rendition him to CECOT or AA.
Since when is the Enemies List on Lincoln Square? I subscribed to your substack to get access to that & Tge Elephant in the Room. How can I cancel this subscription & change to Lincoln Square?
If I was Ghislaine Maxwell right now, I'd be in fear for my life. SHE knows who Jeffrey Epstein's clients were and what they did, where and when.
Alex Acosta had to resign from the first Trump admin when the heat from his sweetheart deal with Jeffrey Epstein got too hot to handle. IF the Epstein Client List only covered Democrats, it would have been released on live TV with marching bands, fireworks and a balloon drop. The reason it's being covered up is because one client above all others is desperate to deep six this thing. He's guilty as sin.
And FTR, if there are Democrats in those files who are guilty of sexually abusing young girls, I want them prosecuted, tarred and feathered, and a house a dropped on them.
Every accusation is a confession? I’m struggling not to dehumanize people - especially ICE - they are behaving like deranged evil people. In face masks with automatic weapons and horses(?)
I am so beaten down by 10 years of Trumpism, 30+ years of Fox News and ZERO accountability for these dopes that my expectations of this exploding into something with real consequences is really low. Like zero.
Disagree?
I'll make you a wager, any amount, that in a month, Blondie, Bongino. Patel, et al will still be on the job. Bongino says he's considering resigning over this. HAHAHAHHAHAHHAHA.
This job is the ride of his life,: a title, a paycheck, Fox News appearances, and sniffs Trump's ass whenever he wants. Let's call it the Rubio Effect. He's going nowhere
Remember how SignalGate was gonna get a buncha peeps fired?
I swear I red this several times/places: "Trump is getting frustrated with Hegseth's lies".
Boy, do I hear you, Michael Walsh. This nightmare has taken my bright, optimistic, glass-half-full basic nature of over 70 years and made a miserable, despairing cynic of me. I come to Rick and the many other Substack Warriors to get a little fix of Hope, but it's bleak.. and it's tough to keep fighting.
DITTO here… going on 71. Started for me with the farce of the Vietnam Paris “Peace Talks” during the 1968 potus campaign compromised by Nixon’s operatives. Then 1972-74 WATERGATE, of course! Then Reagan’s manipulation of the Iranian hostage negotiations in the 1980 election and the Iran-Contra schemes. Then Newt Gingrich’s weaponization of personal destruction and the Starr/Whitewater witchhunt and demonizations. Then the Supreme Court allowing “the steal” in Florida in the 2001 Gore-Bush potus election. Then the Karl Rove voting machine manipulation in the 2004 election “steal” in the Ohio potus vote count. Then McConnell’s Obama SCOTUS seat steal. Then the “her emails” campaign and the Comey letter in the 2016 election steal. Then the tRump/MAGA directed 6JAN21 Capitol riot/insurrection and attempt electoral count overthrow. Then the vote tabulation statistical impossibility in all 7 swing states in the 2024 election facilitated by Musk’s Starlink satellite system.
Yes, I’ve grown totally cynical about the far right & GOP’s thorough destruction of the Democratic Party and the democratic process in America…
- I was disinterested in politics forever; doesn't mean I didn't shoot off my mouth, but I really had no clue. My dad was Republican, I defended the Vietnam war, stupidly. I had Repube sympathies by default.
- The turning point for me was W's Iraq War. Such an obvious lie, so badly executed, and it accomplished nothing except Cheney getting rich via Halliburton
- Since then, I've been an informed Dem, but never a kool aid drinker; I am ruthlessly critical of Schumer, Jeffries, two of the least effective non leaders in recent memory, ANY party; and Pelosi who left us with this mess.
- Stuart Stephens, former GOP campaign guru, has repudiated it all and wrote a great book "It Was All A Lie". Must-read. You'll enjoy it.

Thank you. Great. Well done.
Surprised Rick didn’t mention this. Sen. Van Hollen has successfully made consequential noise about this: https://www.google.com/search?q=van+hollen+re+epstein+case&rlz=1CDGOYI_enUS713US803&oq=van+hollen+re+epstein+&gs_lcrp=EgZjaHJvbWUqBwgBECEYoAEyBggAEEUYOTIHCAEQIRigATIHCAIQIRigATIHCAMQIRigATIHCAQQIRigATIHCAUQIRigATIHCAYQIRirAjIHCAcQIRirAtIBCTI0Mjc3ajBqOagCE7ACAeIDBBgBIF_xBRjTAIYDODjq&hl=en-US&sourceid=chrome-mobile&ie=UTF-8

If you're subscribed here, nearly always Rick will do what he did today and post The Enemies List on his substack here.
Cray, cray, cray Release the tapes, AG, FBI directors I double dare you

Exactly...

Waffle House forever! Fuck Pete H. Sideways.
Again...I am not allowed in. I don't how to do this I guess.
I was just thinking I should apologize the everyone I’ve been rude to - I’m sorry.
What are you trying to do?
You are absolutely right that they’d be watching. Disgusting
Even if one MAGA cult member changes their mind because of this - yay - one more waking up

Only frustration was that he wasn't lying enough.

This was the reason I became a Democrat after having grown up in a SoCal Republican home...with my parents adoring Nixon..and Reagan...Bush...
A few things
- I'm also 71, so we've seen the same sh**
- I was disinterested in politics forever; doesn't mean I didn't shoot off my mouth, but I really had no clue. My dad was Republican, I defended the Vietnam war, stupidly. I had Repube sympathies by default.
- The turning point for me was W's Iraq War. Such an obvious lie, so badly executed, and it accomplished nothing except Cheney getting rich via Halliburton
- Since then, I've been an informed Dem, but never a kool aid drinker; I am ruthlessly critical of Schumer, Jeffries, two of the least effective non leaders in recent memory, ANY party; and Pelosi who left us with this mess.
- Stuart Stephens, former GOP campaign guru, has repudiated it all and wrote a great book "It Was All A Lie". Must-read. You'll enjoy it.
Mine was Reagan...and his handover to the wealthy people of that day...
