Oh. Okay. Well, that’s that, then, eh? Um… no. I don’t believe there is no Epstein client list. Do you? There has been an Epstein client list since Epstein was arrested. THIS regime kept promising to release it just as soon as they finished their review. WE just weren’t allowed to see it. Why? Because so many people on there, allegedly including 47, were rich and powerful. If you will recall, at the time the FBI searched Epstein’s place, they found stacks of secretly recorded DVD’s, each dated and labeled with a man’s name and the underage woman he was with.

Even if Epstein himself never made a list, the FBI did. Oh, and we can’t forget, Ghislaine Maxwell kept a “little black book.” Everybody knows Donny and Epstein were very good friends for around 15 years. Apparently, they had some things in common, like women, some of whom, according to the Drumpfster, “were on the younger side.”

In a recent dust-up, Elon Musk claimed Donny IS in the Epstein files, bringing the whole thing back into public prominence. So, we know what Epstein did, we know Donny and Epstein were very close friends and we KNOW that Donny knew what Epstein was doing. Now, suddenly, there’s no list?

Sadly, it’s possible. It may have been destroyed, right along with all of the other evidence. Donny might think he “solved” the problem by destroying the evidence. In MY mind, I see the announcement as conscientiousness of guilt. This thing wasn’t going away. It keeps coming back from time to time. So? Destroy the evidence. At least there will be no convictions.

And then, his reaction when asked about it later. He’s trying to scold his way out of it. “Are you still talking about THAT?” He tried to hide behind the dead bodies of children who died in the flood and, yes, the children ARE more important – but most people can do more than one thing at a time. We can mourn the children and seek further clarification on the sudden disappearance of the Epstein client list – just as he was being pressured into releasing the thing.

I saw a meme. It read, ‘If I was the President and the entire world was calling me a pedophile, I would release every page of the Epstein files to prove I wasn’t in them… unless I was in them.’ But now I feel more strongly than ever, Donny WAS in those files. I suspect he had to destroy them in order to try to protect himself from things he’s done…

I haven’t been so proud of my fellow Californians in a long time. Did you SEE the push-back in San Francisco when the masked, cowardly, possible ICE “agents” came to an immigration court and tried to arrest someone coming out of the building after doing everything they can to come to this country “the right way?” Spoilers: the kidnappers got their target. But it wasn’t easy.

People got in their way. People used bikes to build blockades. People jumped on (and rode) the hood of an ICE vehicle. None of the defenders threw punches that I saw but there was lots of pushing and shoving. There was LOTS of shouting. It was very loud. One mask on one New Gestapo agent slipped far enough that he might be identified.

I’m not sure why, when physical confrontations are taking place anyway, people don’t try to unmask the cowards. I’m STILL pissed off these guys wear masks. It’s not the American way, you know? Our cops are, by and large, brave. They enforce laws. They have no NEED to hide behind masks because they’re trying to do honorable and difficult work.

But these ICE Brownshirts? Hiding their identity is evidence they KNOW they’re violating the law. I know, I wrote “Brownshirts” but these guys aren’t really dressed like Hitler’s SA. They come in full riot gear – to arrest farm workers and hotel workers and restaurant staff. Who do they think they’re fighting?

I hope Tuesday’s San Francisco push-back stands as an example to the rest of the country. It was a hopeful event. I’ve been in despair that we, the people are just going to slide quietly into authoritarianism, but this interference gave me hope that it might not be so. We may still have a little revolutionary spirit in us, after all. I hope so.

Then I realized, I didn’t see much coverage on corporate news. Initially, I was surprised. It was a pretty direct confrontation. WHY wouldn’t the corporate news show it? Perhaps it’s those words, ‘corporate news.’ Perhaps the billionaire owners of the corporate news are happy about their shiny new tax breaks and prefer the nascent authoritarianism. Perhaps they prefer the image of Americans sliding quietly, acquiescing to the new status quo.

I guess 47 will be sending in more troops, taking them away from their homes and their regular jobs just to have them sit around in warehouses, like he did in Los Angeles…

Do you know the word skedaddle?” the Drumpfster asked. “It means skedaddle.” At this point, suggesting 47 has dementia is really being gracious. He STILL just seems stupid, to me. Hey, Donny, do you know the word dumbass? It means dumbass…

That was at a Cabinet meeting, in public, for all the world to see. It’s the same Cabinet meeting I referenced earlier, where he blasted a reporter for asking about the Epstein files he’s allegedly in and responded by pretending he cares about the dead in Texas. THEN, after scolding the reporter for asking about the Epstein files because of the dead children, he went off on a tangent about interior design, speculating on whether the room’s moldings would look better with gold paint or gold leaf.

The GOP is holding hearings – at taxpayer expense – in an attempt to find out if Joe Biden has dementia, or did when he was President. Biden is out, but it seems to me there’s a current, sitting so-called President displaying signs of dementia more and more with each passing day. Maybe the GOP should “investigate” that…
