This is not being reported in the U.S. news media. Maybe you can argue it’s because it’s July 4th, but if this doesn’t come out in a major way tomorrow, I guess the fix is in.

“Trump’s name appears over and over again on Jeffrey Epstein’s message logs in the grand jury docs released this week. It is also undisputed: Trump’s name appears 7 times on Epstein’s private jet flight logs, that Epstein flew on Trump’s jet with a young girl of indeterminate age, girls who Epstein trafficked worked at Mar-A-Lago, a girl Epstein trafficked mentioned visiting Trump’s casino in a recently released deposition transcript. Trump said Epstein is a great guy who likes girls on the younger side, Trump frequently “partied” with Epstein, Trump wished Ghislaine Maxwell well at her criminal trial, and someone who testified under the pseudonym JANE DOE at the Ghislaine Maxwell criminal trial stated that she was introduced to Trump by Epstein when she was 14 years old,” a user posted on X.

If an Independent can look at how the Republican party conducts itself and still be undecided on who to vote for then they aren’t an Independent, they’re simply a Republican that’s socially aware enough to understand that calling themselves a Republican comes with more baggage than they want to take on.

I agree, but there are a lot of people with their heads (willfully or not) in the sand. All the wild stuff we’re all terribly aware of they have ignored or passed on because they didn’t have the time or motivation to dig into it and find the truth.

Stories like this one, the SC immunity nightmare etc. are still useful because they act as a hook to pull people into the discourse from the sidelines and at the same time keep these things relevant amidst Trump’s unending firehose of falsehoods and projections

“trump supporters” are not a monobloc. And different people value different information in different ways, for their own reasons. We need to peel off as many trump voters as possible. Discouraging statements like “trump supporters do not care about this” help to get trump elected. If you want fascism, u/nutsack, that’s how we get fascism.
