It's a good thing Greg Dworkin had a lot of links today. Because there was a lot to say, even if there were only a very few topics most people were talking about. And by that, we mean Jeffrey Epstein, and the fact that Donald Trump was his very good friend, because they were both giant perverts.

No one's buying the Trump administration's story. I mean, like, no one.

Not the Trump-supporting Speaker of the House.

Not ultra-Trump-supporting rank & file members of Congress.

Not the grifters who came up on the Trump coattails.

Not the grifters positioning themselves to usurp the coat itself.

Not the high-information, liberal voters who might be using it to troll low-information voters.

Not even the low-information voters themselves, who don't care about anything.

Maybe he's just used up all the quarters he had lined up for his brainwashing machine. Whatever the reason, he's now got MAGA & the Republican party splintered over this thing he seems determined to insist everyone should ignore.

But wait! Maybe Trump can save his presidency with substantive accomplishments on the policy side!

Hahahahahaha! Ohhhhh, man! Hey, just kidding, folks! Ha ha! That was a good one! No, there's no hope for that! And the midterm political outlook is only set to get worse, even if the policy itself somehow doesn't. But it is getting worse!

Oh well, at least there's Elon Musk's third party. Hahahaha! Gotcha again!

Meanwhile, this coverup isn't even the worst thing Pam Bondi is doing with her time.

Well, we have time for one more subject. By which I mean about an hour. How about the NYC mayoral race, where we're looking at voters in the 40s and 50s. No, not by age. By net approve/disapprove! (OK, but also by age.) In fact, how about the NYC mayoral race, and how some people are so consumed by it, that they think it has bearing on the outcome of totally unrelated races, thousands of miles away.
