Jeffrey Epstein was found hanging in his cell on August 10, 2019, as there were no windows he could fall out of.

The Epstein story gets a something that is tearing at the heart of the electorate: elite impunity. The idea that wealthy and powerful people can do terrible things *at scale* and face no consequences for them. Whatever political party actually stops it could rule the country for a generation.

“But her emails!” Sigh. 🙄

Guaranteed there are tapes.

And someone knows exactly what’s on them, and where they are stored.

Damn, it’s certainly been a minute since I’ve logged in here.

Nice to see so many familiar names, faces, and profile pics. 😊💙

7) Many will defend Trump until the end.

Because either they (a) believe he’s “done nothing wrong,” a “stable genius,” a “billionaire businessman,” “sent by God,” & “the only one who can save us”; (b) they’re beholden to him politically/financially; or (c) they’re compromised.

6/ Thus, what we are witnessing is not, as MAGA claims, simply “a political movement never seen before,” but a psychological phenomenon.

Of course nuances exist, but ultimately it reveals how easily personal disillusionment can be weaponized into collective denial.

5/ Fueled by cult-like psychological manipulation, deliberate construction of false narratives, and the relentless spread of disinformation and misinformation.

For years they’ve worked diligently to implement this, find the flaws, correct and perfect. The ultimate mind-f*ck.

4/ They view him less as an individual and more as a vessel for their own sense of defiance and belonging. That fusion of identity and ideology creates a feedback loop where aggression is mistaken for authenticity, and cruelty for strength.

3/ Unfortunately It is not solely about one man’s pathology but also the emotional & identity-driven mechanisms that sustain it. Many supporters project their own grievances, fears, and aspirations onto Trump. It’s how they justify their own thoughts, feelings, & behaviors.

2/ For decades, Donald Trump has exhibited traits consistent with sociopathy, malignant narcissism, and oppositional defiance, among many others. He’s never hidden who he is. EVER. Yet instead of rejecting these behaviors, his supporters have normalized, if not glorified them.

Never in my wildest imagination did I expect to see such an extraordinary level of collective cognitive dissonance centered around a single political figure.

It’s almost impossible to fathom. Yet here we are.

Can we just take a minute and acknowledge that our POTUS is right OUT IN THE OPEN lobbying Congressional members to vote against releasing the Epstein files?! Like... what the fuck else does anyone even need to know?

It all would have been much easier if, as would have happened if we were remotely a serious country, it all ended with the Access Hollywood interview.

If **Jeffrey Epstein** thinks you're a evil and demented sociopath, the odds are overwhelming that you are, in fact, an evil and demented sociopath.

It is essential for the rule of law that everyone involved in this end up in prison. Nothing else is a sufficient deterrent against the intentional, repeated abuse of government power to systematically deny fundamental rights.

I am calling for a total and complete shutdown of detainees being removed from the United States to foreign prisons until our country's representatives can figure out what is going on.

important context about the concentration camps in el salvador:

💯

What we all just witnessed had all the earmarks of a criminal conspiracy to deprive Abrego-Garcia of his constitutional rights, as well as an impeachable offense. The fraud scheme was a phony agreement engineered by the US to have Bukele say he lacks power to return Abrego Garcia and he won't do it.

Alright, thank you for helping crowdsource this Starter Pack of Independent / Non-Corporate Media Sources.

These voices will be essential in the Trump 2.0 era.

And that time is now…👇

So, get OUT, get INVOLVED, and get LOUD!

If you support any of this, you’re honestly just a terrible person. People’s lives are being upended and destroyed. For every 1% increase in unemployment, 40,000 people die—yet some are celebrating.

This feels accurate.
