Lawyers launch search for Epstein survivors as part of Bank of America’s $72.5m settlement Lawyers have estimated that Bank of America have to reach a settlement with as many as 75 women for covering up the activities of Epstein.

BofA joins other big banks settling with Epstein survivors. 75 of them could share the $72 million that will be paid per terms of the settlement.

A paltry sum for your childhood innocence but it shines more light into dark corners.

Golden Dome as a Leaky Golden Shower: Trump's $4 Trillion Missile Defense System Ridiculed in DC | Common Dreams "This is not defense, it's deception—an illusion of safety.

No fooling update from China on the Iran war.

BREAKING: Israel's Knesset has passed a law to execute Palestinian detainees.
Death by hanging. Mandatory sentencing. No pardon. 90 days to carry out.

It applies through military courts with a 96% conviction rate. It does not apply to Israelis.

Those in the know say Golden Dome will work about as well as 47's other pipe dreams (regime change in Iran, allies helping force open Strait of Hormuz, etc.) It is vastly more ambitious than Israel's vaunted Iron Dome which is failing miserably right now.

3/12: When Women’s Rights Become a War Narrative: From Gaza to Iran, Whose Lives Are Worth Saving? In the Western-dominated international discourse, women’s rights are often reduced to a one-dimensional narrative of “salvation.” Yet when the price of such “salvation” is the loss of more innocent li...

[Epstein] illustrates that women’s rights values don't necessarily translate into protection for women, especially vulnerable women. In politics, it often degenerates into a tool—a narrative device to provide moral legitimacy for geopolitical objectives.

CUBA! NOW IS THE TIME

Cuba is under U.S. siege & so is Cuban healthcare.

Global Health Partners has a U.S. Commerce Department license to send medical supplies to Cuba. Support them by donating at: www.ghpartners.org.

It does take an incredibly long time struggling to accept the unacceptable. I can remember thinking I was unfit to drive in the weeks after my parent had died.

This is likely why DNA testing is banned for Palestinians. Really a big factor as families in Gaza attempted to identify their loved ones' remains.

So glad the Dow dropped (well) below 50k so we can discuss the Epstein files again.

Fuzzy memories and hard facts: An SC accuser's claims against Epstein, Trump examined An alleged victim of Jeffrey Epstein gave FBI agents true accounts of her time growing up in SC. Claims she made about Donald Trump remain unsubstantiated.

At that juncture, and every juncture since, when neocons proposed bombing Iran wiser heads said, "It won't go well for us if we do that." And here we are.

Reports are that Barron Trump is also claiming some unspecified "special medical condition" that exempts him from conscription.

Me in 2003 to a college age son: Better make a plan now if there's a draft. What would you do? Go to Canada or refuse or?

Him: I'm not going to Canada, mom.

Me: <silent but heart sinking>

Him: I would go to Mexico.

Worth a read. Maybe just me but seemed like the reporters got inspired by Karoline Leavitt's lies about no credible evidence of 47's abuse of this minor girl.
