Whoops!

Republican Senator Markwayne Mullin just admitted that congressional Republicans are voting against efforts to release the Epstein files in full because they’re trying to give President Trump “cover.”

On Thursday, Mullin and Democratic Senator Ruben Gallego each put forth a resolution on the Epstein files that they claimed was transparent. While Gallego called for the DOJ to release all files in full without caveat, Mullin called on the department to release “all credible information” related specifically to Epstein’s sealed legal proceedings.
“I’m sure this would be handled just like any other thing [the Democrats] have tried to go after like the baseless impeachments. Or the bases—baseless special counsels. Or the unbelievable amount of charges they tried to file against the president,” Mullin said while objecting to Gallego’s resolution. “I’m sure this would be handled the exact same way. What we’re simply wanting to do here, is give [Trump] cover.”

On that note... the military still has a gigantic sexual assault problem from "normal" cishet men. They won't do much about that... but they will at least volunteer to go after the queers to protect women!
The more tribunals and the judicial system fails to punish those who commit rape/sexual abuse... the more we're going to end up with a "Girls will be girls" counterpart to "Boys will be boys", in which women denied justice through due process end up turning to a more personal and permanent means of retribution.

There starting to resign themselves to President Pedo-rapist. (Banks is pretty fringy over-the-top, but aren't they all?)

It's funny and sad how so many in the "democrats and queer people are groomers and pedophiles" crowd changed their tune so fast to "Actually we are kind of fine with this!" They don't stand for anything other than defending their tribe.

When you're harvesting the blood of children for your satanic cult, the younger the child, the fresher the blood.

They just keep putting up roadblocks. Don't they want to get at the truth! </sarcasm>

According to The Washington Post, the Pentagon began administering polygraph tests to top military officers, staffers, and even Trump allies on a hunt for national security leaks. The plan stemmed from a memo by Hegseth’s then chief of staff, Joe Kasper, who wanted “every possible lead” pursued. Among those tested: Adm. Christopher Grady, vice chair of the Joint Chiefs, and Army Lt. Gen. Douglas Sims.

But the program was short-lived. After one senior adviser, Patrick Weaver, complained to the White House that he was unfairly targeted, the testing was shut down. Within days, the order came down: no more polygraphs. No final report. No answers.

“MAGA,” which is neither a party nor really a movement, but more a fickle and amorphous mob that charlatans of various stripes try to steer in this or that direction, is divided by the “Jewish Question,” if you’ll permit me. More than immigration, and more than trade, the key issues roiling that “coalition” are the United States’s relationship to Israel and the “Epstein Files.” On their own, these matters are serious and real, but in the MAGA imagination, they become converted, along with all political questions, into lurid conspiracy theories. If you buy my contention that Trumpism is essentially fascist, these tendencies are not hard to fathom. MAGA is splitting into a “vanilla fascist” section that is happy to simply menace political opposition and the darker nations at home and abroad, and a hardcore National Socialist fronde that sees in all things a more sinister, hidden enemy. The fascism question seems to me closed: the question now is whether MAGA will be “merely fascist” or go full Nazi. (If you still aren’t convinced that antisemitism is not a live ideological current on the American right, then explain the sudden transformation of X’s AI Grok into “MechaHitler:” it was mirroring users’ posts.)

Ahh, to be 15 again. Life was a whirlwind of after school specials and sagging 40yr old ball sacks. One moment I’m at my friend’s house watching The Littlest Hobo and eating a Mr Freeze, and the next I’m on my knees sucking off my BFF’s dad. Sometimes, after supper, we’d roam the streets of our borough, lookin’ for some hookin’, and of course, we made sure to write in our diaries covered (with cute stickers of kittens and favourite bands) old man cock is the best cock.

Fun fact: this version is just an English text to a Russian folk song called Дорогой длинною.

I don't have a link, but someone was taking a video from a distance as Trump was playing golf at his Scotland resort and watched as the caddy dropped a ball like freaking Oddjob and Trump came up and played it like it was his shot.

"Cheats at golf" is sooooo far down the list in the catalog of bad things Trump does that I honestly wouldn't have even cared, except for the part that really amused me about the whole incident which is that he was playing without any partners. It was a solo round. There was nobody there to even cheat against, and he still had to cheat. :LOL:
