Can the media STOP referring to Jeffrey Epstein as a “financier”? The money he made came from SEX TRAFFICKING MINORS, RAPING CHILDREN, and BLACKMAIL. He was NOT a financier. I’ve seen at least five stories from three outlets refer to him this way in the past week. This is the latest from the Times:

We agree, @robhuebel — seems Dems should be talking about this: “State Dept denied Trump intervened on Alexandrovich’s behalf, but that appears implausible. Trump, Israel, pedophilia, corruption… a gift unicorn grazing in Dems’ backyard — And yet?” zeteo.com/p/why-arent-...

i find this image so fascinating. it is both a literal example of authoritarianism but also a second-hand reproduction of the aesthetics of other authoritarian states. it's like a simulacra of authoritarianism whose purpose is to attempt to make the simulacra real.

Y’all worried about Gavin Newsom running for president—if we don’t win the midterms there won’t be any presidential run to argue about. People need to start understanding we don’t have a fictional federal government. We’re running on residue from the past, only protected by city & state. #Pinks
Mueller, She Wrote (@muellershewrote.com) reposted
This is an excellent piece by @stevevladeck.bsky.social. Not only does he lay out the case in a way that's easy to understand, but he talks about why the Trump administration feels like it can improperly run straight to SCOTUS. Definitely worth the read.
