  1. President Trump made misogynistic comments to CNN’s Kaitlan Collins, Speaker Mike Johnson claims to know more about The Bible than the Pope, and journalists are outraged at Jeff Bezos over mass layoffs in the newsroom at The Washington Post.

  5. Did the destruction of the WashPoo take anyone away from wondering where the rest of the Epstain files are? I did not think so. In terms of distraction it was of minor importance. Bezos had already started the destruction of it right after he bought it.

  6. BB, speaking of WAPO, ‘toonist Whamond has a good one today about those layoffs

  7. patd – yeah, shutting down the paper has perked some creative artwork!

    I am starting to think that Bezos was more involved with Epstein’s dirty work than originally thought and sfb is using that knowledge to get rid of the local investigative newspaper.

  10. Shutting Down the Kennedy Center is Even More Serious than it Looks

    President Donald Trump is showing his desire to control American culture, echoing similar moves by autocrats around the world. And the Kennedy Center is a test case.

    By
    Symone D. Sanders Townsend
    Amid the revelations of the Epstein files, the president’s threats to “nationalize” the midterm elections and the ongoing immigration crackdown, the announcement that the Kennedy Center will close might seem like a minor story.

    Earlier this week, the Trump administration said the Washington, D.C., cultural institution would shut down after the Fourth of July for what it describes as “renovations.”

    Given the president’s destruction of the East Wing of the White House last fall, this set off alarm bells among architectural historians and others concerned about his long record of damaging beautiful old buildings.

    But the problem goes even deeper than that. In shutting down a vital center of the arts in the nation’s capital, Trump is showing his desire to control American culture, echoing similar moves by autocrats around the world.

    For more than five decades, the Kennedy Center has stood as a symbol of American cultural excellence, intentionally insulated from partisan politics.

    Presidents of both parties respected that separation because they understood something fundamental: Art does not belong to the presidency, and culture cannot be governed by loyalty tests. The legitimacy of cultural institutions depends on their independence, not their usefulness to whoever holds power.

    Trump has dismantled that norm. Since forcing his way onto the Kennedy Center board, he has pushed the boundaries of presidential influence over the institution, going so far as to put his own name on the building, which can only legally be done by an act of Congress.

    He then installed loyalists in leadership roles and turned what was once a celebration of artistic achievement into a referendum on political allegiance.

    Artists balked, canceling their Kennedy Center appearances in droves. Performers who once viewed the venue as the pinnacle of American cultural life refused to associate themselves with the MAGA-fied center.

    Rather than back down, Trump shut the whole place down, like a petulant child going home with his toys.

    Trump’s frustration goes deeper than a canceled showing of “Hamilton,” though. Like other authoritarian leaders who could not earn cultural legitimacy through democratic means, he is attempting to manufacture it by capturing the institutions that confer it.

    In Turkey, Recep Tayyip Erdogan reshaped national cultural bodies to position himself as the symbolic center of Turkish identity, sidelining artists who refused to conform. In Hungary, Viktor Orban built state-funded cultural institutions to promote his brand of nationalism, excluding those who resisted. Control of culture became a substitute for consent.

  11. Today’s starter topic 🗣️NOW PLAYING ON ELEVEN TO NOON

    2026 Strategy: Should Democrats Campaign on Impeachment?
    Campaigning on Trump impeachment 2026 is becoming the flashpoint of the midterm cycle. While grassroots energy is high, Democratic leadership is wrestling with whether a formal “promise to impeach” will galvanize their base or alienate the swing voters they need to retake the House.

    The debate is no longer theoretical. High-profile candidates like George Conway are entering the fray—Conway recently launched his NY-12 bid on a “one-term” platform dedicated almost entirely to holding the president accountable through the legal machinery of Congress. However, Speaker Mike Johnson is already using this “impeachment threat” as a primary fundraising tool, warning his base that a Democratic victory would lead to “absolute chaos.”

    We’re digging into the polling and the internal party friction. Data suggests a plurality of voters support accountability for recent executive actions, but strategists worry that focusing on the “I-word” instead of the economy could repeat the mistakes of the past.

    Is it time for a “fearless” campaign, or is the party walking into a trap?

  12. It is well beyond my available time and well, well beyond my research abilities, but a summary of the asinine actions of the Orange King through the EOs he has entered in the past year would be a handy little reference for the midterms IMHO and would fit nicely into a narrative discussing either impeachment or a 25th Amendment proposal. BTW, WTF is Dershowitz trying to say? This is a Harvard Law professor saying that a constitutional amendment is unconstitutional? Now there’s all degrees of quality bullshit out there, and that has to be close to the least degree. High quality chutzpah, but really low quality bullshit.

    And as anyone here with half a brain knows, I follow WaPo closely as my first source of reporting on politics, legal issues, national news and the like, and I cannot express how disappointed I am in Bezos’ insane stripping out of the newsroom at WaPo. Looks like I’m going to have to shift to NYT and supplement with the Hill and the Atlantic going forward, although habit will probably have me checking WaPo 1st thing since it’s what I’ve done for around 35 years now. Sad what the Orange Blob has visited on this country.

  14. A midterm campaign point? Nooo! You will have MAGAts back on board!

    This can NOT be a talking point UNTIL specifically asked. Then, after affirming they absolutely will, they need to pivot back to what they will do fix all of the things that SFB did not fix (or broke), and point out his pie crust promises and demolition of good things.

    LET the press or constituents bring it up. Otherwise, it looks like payback. It can NOT be what they run on, just something they are prepared to answer with a reminder to MAGAts how their lives are now, and that this is NOT NORMAL.

    Yesterday, I called Senators John Thune and Patty Murray with my wishlist/list of demands for any DHS/UCE funding, although they already have too much.

    Anyone on this list with a YAY by their name needs a call, too, if anyone is so inclined: 202-224-3121

    Hello this is [personal info] and although DHS/ICE already has excessive funding, any additional appropriations should be contingent on:
    Masks OFF
    Body cameras ON
    NO big sweeps/signed, judicial warrant only
    NO tear-gassing protestors
    NO facial scanning of protesters

    NO more concentration camps (aka detention facilities) The US is warehousing humans for slave labor

    INSPECTIONS (at a moment’s notice) of detention facilities not only by members of Congress for that state, but also local government for that state and city

    NO flying detainees from place to place (this is both inhumane and fiscally irresponsible)

    Investigation & justice for abuse and death in
    ICE custody, or altercations with on and off-duty agents

    NO ICE at polling places

    Financial OVERSIGHT/audit by actual accountants because the way this has been mishandled for maximum visibility of cruelty has been waste, fraud, and abuse played out before our eyes

  18. Craig – I think my point was already made in my post about how the subject of impeachment should be handled.

  19. Clip from the interview: he discounts the deaths of two American citizens. Only two, that’s nothing. Got the sense he’d love to see more dead in the streets.

  21. BiD, reread what I wrote. (a) “a summary of the asinine actions of the Orange King through the EOs he has entered in the past year would be a handy little reference for the midterms IMHO” and (b) ” and would fit nicely into a narrative discussing either impeachment or a 25th Amendment proposal.” I separated the two clauses in case you thought I meant them to be expressed as a single thought in the context of the midterms. Not my thought unless the subjects of impeachment or 25th are forced on a candidate.

  22. Exactly. The press or constituents will bring up impeachment (if he’s even above ground by then), but they should not run on it. When asked, say yes & here’s why, and then do a list of broken promises & how they would fix them.

    Whistleblower Lawyer Warns Tulsi Gabbard He’ll Go to Congress Over Classified Complaint

    *He should add that his client is definitely not suicidal, either.

    ***

    Congress to gain access to the whistleblower complaint against Tulsi Gabbard at last

    Sen. Mark Warner of Virginia, the top Democrat on the Senate Intelligence Committee, told Capitol Hill reporters on Tuesday that the Gang of Eight will, at long last, have an opportunity to review the whistleblower complaint against the DNI.

    Given the circumstances, it’s unlikely that any member of the Gang of Eight will be able to speak publicly about what the complaint entails, but the disclosure will have the effect of advancing the broader controversy and at least opens the door to possible committee hearings.

    *Guess it worked

  24. Taking that thought about EOs a little further, those that attempt to ignore laws passed by congress or violate constitutional rights should be organized to clearly demonstrate his lawlessness. Oh, and Epstein and the 3,500 references to him (I’ve heard there are 38K, but I’m not sure of the number. 3500 seems like a lot to me for someone who’s not involved) in the documents released so far should be segregated and grouped by topic. Hard to say what that would look like, but it ain’t likely to be good for him. And yes I know that the folks who voted for him don’t care, and I don’t give a shit what most of them think, considering that he won’t be on the ballot again. What I do care about is the 27% of independent voters who voted for the Blob who now support democratic candidates. Need to remind them why they don’t support him any longer.

  27. https://thehill.com/blogs/in-the-know/5723442-elon-musk-save-act-requiring-id-to-vote-democracy/

    Tesla CEO and former White House adviser Elon Musk on Wednesday weighed in on legislation that would require ID and proof of citizenship to register to vote, warning that democracy could be at risk if the legislation isn’t enacted.

    “It must be done or democracy is dead,” Musk said on the social platform X, which he owns.

    The SAVE Act is nothing more than Jim Crow 2.0. It would disenfranchise millions of Americans. Every single Senate Democrat will vote against any bill that contains it,” Schumer wrote on X. “Speaker Johnson should tell SAVE Act Republicans to stand down or else this shutdown will be on them.”

    The SAVE Act…would require voter ID but also restrictions on how states administer and maintain their elections.

    The bill would also stipulate that mail-in ballots must be received by the time polls close on Election Day to be counted, with exceptions for members of the military serving overseas.

    *They will not let the SAVE ACT die. It’s being resurrected with more restrictions than before.

    Get dialing: Vote NO!

    1
    Bezos’s decision to slash 300+ Washington Post jobs and reportedly shift toward ‘AI-driven’ content follows increased editorial scrutiny of Amazon’s labor practices, antitrust issues, and tax avoidance strategies—eliminating institutional capacity to investigate billionaire power structures.
    2
    The timing coincides with Amazon facing FTC antitrust investigations, Congressional hearings on monopoly practices, and scrutiny over warehouse working conditions; reducing Post investigative capacity directly protects Bezos’s corporate empire from accountability journalism.
    3
    Mainstream coverage frames this as a ‘business decision’ or ‘pivot to digital,’ obscuring the consolidation of information control—one of the world’s richest people directly weakening the news organization that could most thoroughly investigate his holdings and influence.

  37. Oh, and even though Kashew Nut says there’s nothing to the EPSTEIN files, other countries are investigating, and there are already consequences.

    “If Bannon can message Epstein, “I’ve gotten pulled into the Brexit thing this morning with Nigel, Boris and Rees Mogg…”, then Reform and Farage have a duty to explain the contacts and the purpose behind them.”

    Four Haitian Women Were Deported From Puerto Rico; They Have Now Been Found Decapitated

    Leonard Prophil, a community leader and spokesperson for Haitians in Puerto Rico, said the women had been missing for two weeks

    At the time they were found, reports indicated the women had been killed and then thrown into a river, which carried their bodies to the area where they were discovered. After days of investigation, a new report revealed information about the victims, who were allegedly deported from Puerto Rico as a result of the Trump administration’s immigration crackdown.

    Earlier this week, authorities in the Dominican Republic made the brutal discovery of four Haitian women who were killed and later decapitated near the country’s southern border with Haiti.

    “One of them was deported two months ago, and the others were deported three months and 15 days ago,” Prophil said, adding that the killings could be linked to gangs that kidnap women to “demand ransom money from their relatives,” who often live in the United States.

    “Leave these people alone. Deporting them is condemning them to death,” Prophil added.

    If the government wants to help, it should help these people legalize their status, because every time someone like this is deported, they are supporting a culture of death,” Prophil said.

    Immigration raids in the continental United States have also extended to territories such as Puerto Rico, where for months federal immigration agents have targeted communities and neighborhoods known for housing large numbers of migrants, particularly Dominicans and Haitians.

    According to a report by EFE, an estimated 20,000 undocumented people live in Puerto Rico.

    *Immigration raids in Puerto Rico. Oh, so Orange Adolf & Stephen Mitler do know Puerto Rico is US territory.

    Crypto Takes a Deep Slide Despite Trump’s Support
    The price of Bitcoin is now lower than when President Trump was elected in 2024, raising concerns of a new “crypto winter” in the industry.

    By David Yaffe-Bellany
    David Yaffe-Bellany covers the crypto industry.

    The price of Bitcoin is lower than it was the day before President Trump’s election. A leading cryptocurrency exchange is laying off a large chunk of its work force. And a push for industry-friendly legislation has stalled in Congress.

    After months of declining prices and dispiriting setbacks, the crypto industry has found itself deep in one of its periodic slumps — a so-called crypto winter.

    Bitcoin is trading at less than $64,000, a nearly 50 percent decline from its peak price, which it reached just last October. The prices of two other top coins, Ether and Solana, are both down more than 30 percent over the past week.

    At the same time, the stock prices of major crypto firms have plummeted. Strategy, a company that buys enormous amounts of Bitcoin, is down 75 percent since November 2024, when Mr. Trump was newly elected and promised to make the United States “the crypto capital of the planet.”

    All the bad news has now cemented into one of the worst crises in the crypto industry since 2022, when the FTX exchange collapsed after an $8 billion fraud. This time, the market’s decline has been driven partly by a type of risky trading that caused a sudden market crisis late last year.

    The downturn is especially disappointing for the industry because it has come at a time when the White House is embracing crypto and promising to boost the industry in the United States. The plunging prices show how vulnerable Bitcoin remains to broader economic trends, like the pressures on the larger tech industry that have caused a marketwide sell-off in recent days.

    “A lot of times it has behaved basically like a tech stock,” said John Todaro, a crypto analyst at Needham. “You have some market participants selling it — going, ‘I don’t want just another tech exposure.’”

    Already the consequences of the downturn are coming into focus. On Thursday, the Gemini exchange, a publicly traded crypto firm, announced that it was laying off 25 percent of its work force and ending its operations in the United Kingdom, the European Union and Australia.

    “This is starting to look like the retrenchment we had in 2022,” said Corey Frayer, a former Securities and Exchange Commission official who worked on crypto issues.
    […]
    Mr. Trump promised to end a regulatory crackdown on crypto and created a crypto empire of his own, with Trump-branded digital coins and a crypto start-up run by his sons. Some investors predicted that Bitcoin would soon surge even higher, reaching $250,000 within a year.

    That hasn’t panned out. Starting last fall, the crypto industry endured a series of punishing setbacks.

    First, the market cratered in October, a downturn that was driven partly by broad economic trends, like Mr. Trump’s trade threats. But the decline was also exacerbated by investors who had borrowed large amounts of money to make ever-bigger bets on crypto prices.

    When the crypto market surges, those types of risky bets can lead to enormous returns. In a downturn, they make the damage even worse.

    Even the Trump family was not immune to the market chaos. The price of WLFI, a cryptocurrency developed by one of the Trump businesses, has fallen about 50 percent since late September. American Bitcoin, a publicly traded Bitcoin mining company backed by Mr. Trump’s sons, also saw its stock price plunge.

    The problems continued to mount in January. For months, the industry has lobbied in Washington for sweeping legislation that would create new industry-friendly rules, protecting crypto companies from a regulatory crackdown.

    My, oh my.

  57. https://www.cnn.com/2026/02/02/uk/epstein-files-britain-mandelson-andrew-ferguson-intl

    Mandelson, widely known in political circles as the “Prince of Darkness” for his Machiavellian approach to power, was fired as the UK’s ambassador to Washington in September over the deepening scandal surrounding his ties to Epstein. That month, US lawmakers had released a “birthday book,” compiled for Epstein’s 50th birthday in 2003, in which Mandelson penned a handwritten note describing the financier as “my best pal.”

    The latest tranche of documents has revealed that Mandelson appeared to leak sensitive UK government tax plans to Epstein. They also show that his partner, Reinaldo Avila da Silva, regularly received undisclosed payments from him.

    In September 2009, da Silva — who married Mandelson in 2023 after three decades together — emailed Epstein to ask for £10,000 to help fund his osteopathy course. Epstein replied: “I will wire your loan amount immediated’y (sic).”

    Financial records newly released by the DOJ also appear to show that Mandelson himself may have received payments totaling $75,000 from Epstein between 2003 and 2004.

    The latest files also revealed that Mandelson appeared to leak a sensitive UK government document to the financier while he was business secretary in 2009. The memo, written for then-Prime Minister Gordon Brown, advocated £20 billion of asset sales to help relieve Britain’s debt burden following the 2008 financial crisis, and revealed Labour’s tax policy plans.

    In December 2009, Mandelson and Epstein also exchanged emails about Britain’s plans to impose an additional tax on bankers’ bonuses — a punitive one-off measure following the crash. An email from Epstein asked if “jamie” — possibly referring to Jamie Dimon, who was then and still is CEO of JP MorganChase — should call “darling,” likely Alistair Darling, then Britain’s finance minister, “one more time.” In reply, Mandelson appears to suggest that Epstein should call Darling again and “mildly threaten” him. The BBC reported that Darling later had a “painful and angry” phone call with Dimon.

    In another exchange, in May 2010, Mandelson appeared to tip off Epstein that the European Union was planning a €500 billion bailout to save the euro. Epstein wrote: “sources tell me 500 b euro bailout, almost compelte (sic).” Soon after, Mandelson replied: “Sd be announced tonight.” Mandelson had previously served as European commissioner for trade between 2004 and 2008.

    “The reports will all be reviewed to determine if they meet the criminal threshold for investigation,” police commander Ella Marriott said.

    Mandelson will also resign from the House of Lords on Wednesday, the speaker of the British Parliament’s upper chamber said Tuesday.
