The official DOJ Twitter account posting the equivalent of a screenshotted Notes app apology from a phone on 30% battery after the acting director got honeypotted on Hinge and confirmed plans of an Epstein/Maxwell coverup.

Screenshot of a tweet from the official Twitter account of the U.S. Department of Justice @TheJusticeDept. It’s a screenshot of a statement that reads: Acting Director Pollak: I met a woman named Skylar on Hinge, a dating app, in July 2025, her profile is no longer findable. We had two dates (August 4 and August 16). She claimed to be an au pair in Georgetown. She gave no clues that she was a reporter or recording our dates. Had I a clue, the first date would have ended immediately and there never would have been a second one. My profile indicated I did

A big problem being that the policy gap between the center and the far left is actually widening and the center left's platform is getting murkier as they shed important values to appeal to the right and to their donors. If we don't get rid of these people, we will still lose when we win.
