Killing a bunch of elementary school girls to distract from having raped a bunch of middle- and high-school girls is pretty fucking grim.

It'd be a real damned shame if someone were to leak that report.

Just in case it's not immediately obvious: We are currently led by a deeply unserious group of grifters who treat their offices like their personal service providers.

Trump is fucking with things he cannot” unfuck. Remember the phrase ‘asymmetric warfare’ because if Trump sticks his dick in Iran, I have a feeling that AW is the clap he’s going to pick up.

While DIaper Don is getting his rocks off with Iran, this would be s great time to #ReleaseTheFiles

I think the scariest thing about that is how utterly casual you are about it.

The Epstein Files are proof positive that the super wealthy move in such rarified air that they consider themselves not only beyond the reach of the law, but beyond moral authority. And Bondi’s slavish determination to be Trump’s favorite pet is doing nothing to dissuade them. #UnredactTheFiles

Something to remember with the current US administration is that they're not bad at doing crimes. They're bad at HIDING crimes.

So if they do something sudden, obvious and unexpected it is almost certainly an attempt to hide a crime (ongoing or planned), while failing spectacularly at that goal.
