I just heard Eric Trump has a book coming out... something for the children's section, I assume.

Best joke of the day. Rudy Giuliani is getting the presidential medal of freedom. Also Webster's dictionary will be changing the definition of freedom to "conspiring to steal elections."

Let's face it, Doddering Don is more interested in invading U.S. cities than he is in brokering peace around the world.

TRUMP & EPSTEIN ARE SEX TRAFFICKERS!!! I’m gonna post this every day so nobody forgets exactly who Pedophile Trump is and why the Epstein files have suddenly disappeared.

The important question about the hideous ballroom Doddering Don wants to illegally build is not how much will it cost to build, but how much will it cost to tear down. In five years, no one will want to be reminded of him.
Marshall Thornton (@marshallthornton.bsky.social)
Violent crime in D.C. has fallen to its lowest level in decades; so it makes perfect sense that Doddering Don thinks it's worse than ever and he has to call in the National Guard.

Imagine being an actor so desperate for attention that you'd join a violent, unconstitutional, unAmerican government agency. Imagine being a government agency so desperate for approval that you'd hire Dean Cain. #ICE, #DEANCAIN #LOSERSFOR500

If you're following the story of Ghislaine Maxwell's interview by Doddering Don's former attorney and now DOJ ass-kisser... the stories mention sex trafficking and grooming. They don't mention that Maxwell participated in the rape of underage girls. Why talk to the rapist but not the victims?
Marshall Thornton (@marshallthornton.bsky.social)
Did some research and just so we're clear: It's not actually illegal for a political campaign to pay for an endorsement. Not agreeing that happened, but if it did it's not illegal. It is however illegal to use campaign funds to pay for your personal legal fees, in most cases. A liar always lies.
Marshall Thornton (@marshallthornton.bsky.social)
This morning's random thought. Apparently the White House is flooding Truth Social with AI images and video. Might they be doing this so that when an Epstein video of Trump and a minor having sex eventually gets leaked they can say it's AI? #Epstein #WhiteHouse #AI
Marshall Thornton (@marshallthornton.bsky.social)
Doddering Don's former attorney is talking with Epstein's accomplice. Gee, I wonder how that will turn out. My guess is, if she's willing to say Donald who? She'll be getting out of prison soon.

People seem upset that congress is going home to avoid a vote on releasing the Epstein files. Personally, I'm thinking... GREAT! The little they have done has been so awful I really want them to go home. Could they simply stay home until 2026?

Remember when people were talking about Tulsi Gabbard being a Russian asset... funny that she thinks investigating possible Russian interference in the 2016 election was treason.

Two thoughts: 1.) Beginning in June 2026 Stephen Colbert is going to make someone a lot of money. 2.) When selling a TV network, damaging/destroying two of your best assets (60 Minutes/The Late Show) seems really, really dumb.

LOL -Grand jury transcript leading to J.E.'s indictment to be released. We already know... Doddering Don won't be mentioned anywhere--it wouldn't be released otherwise & J.E. was indicted for molesting underage girls. And trafficking them for his personal use. Donnie will say this exonerates him.

Just to be clear.... the Epstein estate has paid out 121 million dollars to 150 of his victims. Not a hoax.

Doddering Don is trying to distract from the Epstein fiasco by threatening Rosie O'Donnell and telling us to feel sorry for poor, maligned ICE.

I'm confused as to why Far-Right Maga-fascists want to think Epstein was murdered in 2019. I mean, if he was murdered in jail it would had to be someone powerful with lots of NYC contacts, lots of money, possibly even someone how had control of the intelligence agencies... who was president then?

Laura Loomer wants Pam Bondi to resign because she's lied to the public about the Epstein case. So, like... the hundreds of other lies she's told this year are okay?

So... the far-right thinks our far-right government controls the weather. How does that work?

Not a conspiracy theorist... but, as someone who did temp in the 90s, I was exposed to a lot of wealthy socially ambitious people. They all had this thing called a Rolodex. Yeah, no one called it a client list but... same difference.

Last month, Mush suggested the Epstein files had not be released because Doddering Don was a featured player. This month Lawless Pam announced that there are no Epstein Files. Connection?

Dear Doddering Don... you say that the Supreme Court won't let you get criminals out of the country. That's not true. Once you go to court and prove that they're criminals you can deport them. It's not that hard.
