First Epstein Names Unsealed: Here Are The Biggest Takeaways

Bill Clinton, Prince Andrew, Alan Dershowitz, Glenn Dubin are among those cited in newly released documents.
www.forbes.com www.forbes.com

So, one of the big takeaways is that Alan Dershowitz is maybe the most cited name in the documents and is accused of raping multiple children. Which makes this pre-release interview absolutely amazing.

Oh cool. Macbill found a story designed in a lab to give a hypertensive crisis.

So Musk is suing to try and overturn nearly 100 years of settled law and disband the National Labor Relations Board. And with it, the entire concept of unionization in America. At a time when we have a Right Wing Supreme Court stocked with corporate cocksuckers.

Something Musk and other Right Wingers forget is...the National Labor Relations Act was the compromise. Labor leaders at the time were getting ready to hang every banker and factory owner in the country. Frank Roosevelt said let's try the NLRA and other New Deal reforms instead.

Rich people in this country need to be afraid again.

I am sure they looked at the ruling in Glacier Northwest and decided it was worth a shot. If the court takes it up, the very least they will get is further weakening of the NLRB.

Edited to add: the supreme Court has always sucked (okay fine the Warren Court was pretty amazing sometimes), but if you read Justice Jackson's dissent you'll see some amazing explanation of labor law, which was completely ignored by 8 other people. I admit I was one of the people who was skeptical of her on labor issues, but she is great.

I'm pretty sure this Jarksey v. SEC bullshit is about ending the administrative state and the entire concept of government regulations too. That is what the Federalist Society scumbags on that court are there to do. They don't actually give a fuck about abortion.

This is what the "2024 is the most important election of our lifetime" crowd forgets. The battle is Joever. Republicans don't need to be in office to enact their agenda. They can just let the Supreme Court take care of all that.

Sure glad Ruth Bader Ginsburg got to go to that COVID Wedding when she had Stage 9,000 pancreatic cancer! Hope the DJ was good!

What gives me some hope is that the US Labor Movement is currently being led by a Radical Leftist who looks and sounds like the average Midwest Dad.

Florida Republicans Introduce the Most Terrifying Assault on Trans Rights Yet

The bill would change legal recognition of trans people in the state—and it actually has a chance of passing thanks to Florida’s Republican trifecta.
newrepublic.com newrepublic.com

Florida is on the precipice of its latest prohibition against the LGBTQ community, this time proposing legislation that would end all legal recognition of trans persons living in the state. The bill would also effectively cease the issuance of driver’s licenses to trans people—unless they comply with signing a “biological sex affidavit” that confirms their sex assigned at birth.

You Could Soon Be Fined for Defamation for Calling Someone Racist in Florida

Florida Republicans have introduced a new bill that would silence basically any accusations of discrimination.

A Florida Republican lawmaker has introduced a bill that would make it defamation to accuse someone of racism, sexism, homophobia, or transphobia, a measure that would deal a devastating blow to the freedom of speech in the Sunshine State.

My guess is sliming every single gay or trans person as a "groomer" will still be perfectly legal in The Free State. But call a racist a racist? That's a $35,000 fine.

US, British militaries launch massive retaliatory strike against Iranian-backed Houthis in Yemen

U.S. and British militaries are bombing more than a dozen sites used by the Iranian-backed Houthis in Yemen, in a retaliatory strike.
apnews.com apnews.com

I had Fake News CNN on for 30 minutes, and not once did I hear WHY the Houthis are conducting a blockade in the Red Sea. Specifically why now, and not say....over the summer. Well they have a specific ask: a ceasefire in Gaza.

Yemen’s Houthis ‘will not stop’ Red Sea attacks until Israel ends Gaza war

US launches maritime coalition to counter attacks the rebel group says are a response to Israeli ‘crimes’ in Gaza Strip.
www.aljazeera.com www.aljazeera.com

The vast majority of American voters agree with the Houthis.

responsiblestatecraft.org

Over 70% of Democrats support a ceasefire in Gaza: Poll

A new survey shows a sharp divide between the party elite and its supporters
responsiblestatecraft.org responsiblestatecraft.org

70% of Democrats want a ceasefire in Gaza. Half of all Republican voters agree. And instead of doing what these voters want, the guy who's supposed to "save democracy" starts another war. Amazing stuff.

America continuously bombed the shit out of Yemen throughout the O'Bungler Administration. The Game Show Host offered full support for Saudi Arabia's scorched earth bombing of Yemen. And now Brandon's bombing them. Unconstitutionally, by the way.
