Just after noon today, at 12:08 PM, while hidden away somewhere in the White House, the President of the United States shared a racist and deeply troubling post on his own social media app, Truth Social. Instead of treating the presidency like the responsibility it is, and working for the American people to end this partial government shutdown, he instead chose to attack two sitting members of Congress and two actors. This is what he...
Extraordinarily comprehensive review of the reprehensible facts and evidence revealed and revealing. Grateful for the extensive and reaching news effect potential on the public, these hard posts. I add to my appreciation this hopeful exhortation that those with such reach and impact begin to speak more directly, and loudly, to the humans behind it all, the infrastructure that daily walks Trump through the paces, that enables him to stay in office. Start with the Millers, the Theils, the cabinet, the techno broligarchy, and let us all know who wins when this crew wins, who owns the press, silences universities, law firms, and the AI media platforms, each and every one. Can we go from here with some sort of credo that focuses upon and investigates those behind the proverbial curtain? Thanks for the platform
What I see are a few sacrificial lambs. I do not see slaughter and I would like to see a slaughter. My god, what has this man and his enablers done to us all?
OMG Heather - what an amazing (and frightening) post! You have courageously waded into a swamp for us, and the deeper it goes, the more rancid it becomes - ugh. The FBI covering up files that point to behavior so vile, it makes my skin crawl, just to read about it. Add that to the absolutely unhinged post on Untruth Anti-Social ranting about two duly-elected and conscientious United States Congresswomen, and it's so damn obvious that these actions (and countless others) warrant immediate and unquestioned removal from office!
And the next layer of danger on top of an unfit-for-office President, is that the methods and officials in position to remove him are NOT going to perform their collective or individual duties. Republican representatives and senators were shown clapping for him! All while he ignored the courageous Epstein survivors in attendance - what in the FUC** are we doing here?
I applaud the journalists at NPR and you for doing an outstanding job of wading in sh*t for us and clearly presenting both the facts, and the escalating danger. I only hope that the women and men we elected to serve our country in congress will do their damn jobs before our entire country (and all of us) sinks to the bottomless bottom, because they were too paralyzed by their own fears to pull the drain plug.
Always interesting to notice that all those nasty comments this looney convict conman preznik has made apply first to him (and his followers). Another sign of deep mental disturbances. Ouch!
Another comprehensive essay, Heather. Things are getting scarier by the day. And what are the attacks on de Nero and Rosie O'Donnell all about? What makes the orange buffoon think that Rosie is desperate to return to the US? She seems perfectly happy living in Ireland, a safe country where she has freedom of speech.
The missing files will (hopefully) serve the same role as the missing/erased tapes in Watergate....bringing down the President. I believe Epstein will bring Trump down. The Republican clapping seals at the SOTU will be forever stained by their grotesque performance. Thank you as always Heather for your tireless work.
Heather…great piece…I also think about how many men/women are involved in this cover up…mind boggling. In my gut, I knew once the files were released, he would not survive…many in the govt now won't survive = cover up so high and tight, that they thought it would take decades. Journalism acting as our DOJ …. If it wasnt for all the work you and ur fellow journalists do, we'd be living in the dark. Thank you.
Twump's 36% approval numbers might be the most revealing of all. The "silent" support he spoke of is an interesting bunch. Let's see. Quite likely all white, all born in the U.S., all Christian Nationalists, all racists, all addicted to something: alcohol, food, internet, whatever, all capable of denial, all victims of something they are too ashamed to talk about. That's the thing: shame silences a person. And that shame is not something you did, it was something done to you.
While Twump and company try to normalize forced sex with a teenage girl (Christian Nationalists would have 13-year-old girls married and pregnant), while they use our government's levers for their own protection and enrichment, while they dismantle institutions that have served Americans here and abroad, while they show nothing but disdain for the poor, while they terrorize citizens in their neighborhoods, while they openly and cruelly spew racist attacks on members of Congress and others, what are the guardrails doing? When Twump et al all go down, he must take all of these enablers down with him.
I was a teenager during Nixon, Watergate and Ford, etc. We were happy to see the crook go, but those Republicans seethed and burned and plotted for decades and built this thing we are witnessing now. The question is: how long can they hold the tiger by the tail?
If ANYONE has not watched “Jeffrey Epstein: Filthy Rich” on NETFLIX, please WATCH IT! This 4-part series includes interviews with many of the survivors you have only seen pictures of or short clips. It provides a very thorough overview of the atrocities and will provide you a more complete understanding of how sick Epstein was and his sick pig man friends. Epstein had hidden cameras in EVERY ROOM and space in all of his mansions, thus the blackmail references Heather highlights above. Sickening yet truly eye opening. There is also an associated piece dedicated to Maxwell that I have not watched yet…
New paid subscriber here. I can hear the empathy in your voice as you take these deep dives into the obscene miasma that is this creature and its regime. It's hard enough to read let alone imagine conjuring thoughtful pieces to keep us aware (and motivated). Thank you. Please keep safe.
Woe unto them, think of all those Christians that are getting fleeced every which way. Woe unto them, think of all those flat earthers that are at the edge. Woe unto us who are getting fucked by all this shit and we aren't giving up. Release the Epstein files and let it all come out so we can put these ass holes where they belong, behind bars. I have a daughter and you all have daughters that "could have been" raped and denigrated by rich ass holes.
Drain the swamp.
Lock them up.
The key is in our hands............Trump Epstein files fit the lock.
All of my friends, and also my therapist, are telling me to look away, to stop reading the news, to shrink my world to nothing but my own life, in the name of my continuing mental health. I tell them that low information voters and those that didn't care enough to vote are who got us into this in the first place, and I will not join their ranks. So I continue to look, to see, and to evaluate, because it is my civic duty.
For a long time many of us wondered, “what does Trump have on these congressional members?” As these files have been released, in part, it occurred to me that perhaps it wasn’t Trump, or just Trump, that “has something” on congressional members, rendering them feckless, as VP Harris recently called them. So, I am glad to see you asking those questions.
Upgraded. Thank you Heather for this and the rest of your brilliant work. Let’s discuss how we, regular Americans, can help take these vile creatures down besides voting as I am fairly positive 2024 was rigged and 2026 will be as well

Thank you! My sentiments exactly.
Keep safe, Heather. And watch your six, for some of Trump’s followers are very bad people.

Just another day in the office for Dementia Donnie.

Resignations are not nearly enough. These monsters should be arrested and charged, this includes trump.
