New: Here's a chart of the top conservative / liberal accounts on X. See that small blue dot? That's @acyn.bsky.social. His fast-cut clips of political combat get hundreds of millions more views than major news sources - and basically no one knows who he is. So I profiled him. wapo.st/3RpEvJ7

Trump threatening members of Congress not to sign the Epstein files discharge petition saying it would be a “hostile act” against him is definitely something an innocent person would do. And scheduling a military flyover in the middle of the survivor press conference is also totally normal behavior.

In the coming days, we expect to see what's playing out in LA and DC happen in Chicago. These efforts are not about fighting crime or making communities safer. This is about Donald Trump testing his power and producing political drama to cover up his own corruption.

John Bolton refused to testify at Trump's impeachment, preferring to sacrifice national security to make money with his book. He could have helped bring accountability and erode the mafia state, enduring that Trump and his cohort could not return. He did not, so now the mafia state comes for him.

He was friends with the guy for 15 years and has 28 women claim he sexually assaulted them plus Jean Carrol being raped. Damn straight he’s guilty. My theory is there aren’t actually that many men other than Epstein but trump is all over it and he doesn’t remember who was underage.

Trump wasn't dumb in that regard, he was malicious. Those people (mypillow guy) were chosen to justify his lies. It's the (MAGA) people who accept that excuse, that are dumb. Mulvaney doesn't believe it. He's also malicious and venal.

According to the lawyer of the victims it was girls mostly procured for Epstein. I think this is the problem for trump, he’s one of the few other men involved. Katie Johnson said Epstein and trump raped her when she was 13. How is that testimony still being ignored?
Redback (@redback.bsky.social) reply parent
Yeah, no way WSJ would run a story like that based on her word. Makes sense that trump would believe it though.

Imagine the material Epstein had that he couldn’t show people. After reading the comments from the lawyer of many of the victims, I think the problem for trump is that the list of men isn’t actually all that long. Barr was head of the fbi, that’s why it hasn’t come out.

Surely one of the underage girls would have come forward if trump had raped her at Epsteins house if true OH WAIT
