Wealthy White Woman DENIED Bail For Trafficking Kids For Sex. Wonders Never Cease!

Ghislaine Maxwell was denied bail. Yes, this should not be news, but given what occured with the sweet heart deal that Jeffrey Epstein received, you cannot put anything past our justice system that caters to white wealthy people. And the legal arguments put forward by Maxwell’s lawyer sound like it...

144 days left for Lando Cotton to name the Obelisk of Wokeness as the GOP goes for distraction

Apparently the disinformation default for the GOP is to ridicule the iconoclasm of decommissioning US monuments and exaggerate illogical alternatives, while trying to get its base to waive its right to sue for damages if they go to a rally and get sick. The Obelisk of Wokeness actually sounds kind...

Former Obama official: Trump administration is turning 'health expert' into 'climate scientist'

Unless Ivanka or the inventor of the Egg McMuffin happens to be reading this, it’s a good bet Donald Trump doesn’t give a shit about you. If Trump could kill off half the country and still get reelected, there’s a good chance it’s all but certain he’d do that. So we’re...

Slender Man at warp speed: Kushner now in charge of vaccines

There’s only six months left in ‘Trump Time’, so the continuum is still safe, so far. Profiteering and looting might be less safe in the interim. Already under fire for his role atop a shadow task force aiding the administration’s response to the coronavirus, senior White House aide Jared Kushner is now being handed...

Jane Mayer from The New Yorker has a really good piece out about how U.S. Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell’s (R.
