Loved this NPR review of A DANGEROUS FICTION! "Barbara Rogan cleverly explores our capacity for self-deception and weaves it into an absorbing mystery that keeps its secret until the very end.” amzn.to/2eda9cJ

It starts at home.
This is the next generation of racists.
They will be at jobs. They will be in politics. They will be on sports teams.
The bus driver and coach should have shut this shit down but if you agree why would you?

White players on boys soccer team cheer the N-word—after losing to majority Black & Hispanic high school.
"Attention everybody!" shouts the captain.
"Make noise if you hate [N-words] !"
Students on the bus respond with loud & sustained cheering.
Boys in front even fist bump.
Soccer team on the bus plays for East Davidson High School—minority enrollment is only 27%.
Players on the receiving end of the racist remarks play for Thomasville High School—where minority enrollment is 86%.
Both high schools are located in Thomasville, North Carolina.
The school district has not publicly identified those students involved or disclosed what punishment they may face.

⛔️ House Democrats' report: 11 women's accounts link Trump to Epstein, and five accuse him of sexual assault‼️
▪️ A new report by Democrats on the House Judiciary Committee, led by Rep. Jamie Raskin, cites survivor accounts, committee interviews, FBI records and the Epstein files
▪️ The report says five women (Beatrice Keul, Stacey Williams, Jill Harth, Katie Johnson and a Jane Doe) accuse Trump of rape or sexual assault in Epstein's company or presence, mostly between 1992 and 1997 in New York and Palm Beach
▪️ It says two survivors, "Jane" and "Kate," told the FBI that Epstein or Maxwell appeared to offer them to Trump. Both testified as prosecution witnesses at Maxwell's trial
▪️ Maria Farmer says Epstein stopped Trump from approaching her late at night
▪️ The report says Trump and former envoy Paolo Zampolli "may have been co-conspirators" with Epstein, and accuses the Justice Department of a cover-up, including Attorney General Todd Blanche telling Maxwell not to discuss one survivor
▪️ Democrats are calling for an independent special counsel
▪️ The White House says "none of these allegations" are true. Communications director Steven Cheung called the report "lies and ridiculous accusations" timed eight days before the midterms
▪️ None of the allegations have been proven in court, and Trump has repeatedly denied any wrongdoing related to Epstein‼️

Now that the race is a dead heat - it might be good to point out that Darline Graham is owned by the data center industry after raking in $5M from data center super PACs, while Annie Andrews hasn’t taken a dime from them. You got this South Carolina.

At the beginning of Trump's rally in Ohio yesterday a protester yelled, "TRUMP WENT ON THE JEFFREY EPSTEIN PLANE!"
I love that for Trump and his supporters.
If Trump wants us to vote like he is on the ballot, everyone should be reminded Trump promised to release the full Epstein Files, but he has done everything he can to block them from us.
Trump was besties with Jeffrey Epstein and in the rooms with children when it all happened.

Listening to Obama and Trump at rallies this week reminds me why Obama won the Nobel Peace Prize and why Trump had to whine his way to a FIFA Peace Prize😂
We know where Trump’s allegiance lies.

Obama makes me proud to be a Dem.
His speech endorsing Ossoff & Bottoms was masterful. Hitting the undeniable facts while also being damn funny. It's clear he hasn't lost his edge.
White Nationalist must be 💩-ing their pants. #DV1 #DemsUnited

Aaron Parnas discusses how the joke about Trump's White House looking like a cheesecake factory has led to Obama living rent-free in his head.

WOMEN DESERVE FREEDOM, NOT PERMISSION!
If you’re a woman, if you love a woman or girl, vote blue for their safety. Because, no daughter should be the next Jane Doe.

Trump endorsed Anthony Constantine.
His credentials? Welp;
MAGA rap album ✅
Bronze Trump statue. ✅
Doesn't know the largest city in his district? He said ‘Ask Grok.' ✅
Anthony Constantino wants to be your congressman, NY-21. Please tell him Grok isn't on the ballot.
Vote for @BlakeGendebien

So let me get this straight.
When someone protests against Epstein and pedophiles, he gets kicked out while people shout USA.
So are MAGA saying it's actually patriotic to support pedophiles?
What a sick bunch.

So Rafael Edward Cruz is now the arbiter of masculinity.
The guy who did nothing and said nothing when Trump called his wife ugly and said his father had something to do with the assassination of JFK.
Cruz is an impotent asshole. Can't wait for him to lose his seat.
Vote for @jamestalarico and @GinaHinojosaTX - real Texans. Not weak sauce Cruz who runs away to Mexico for vacation when the going gets tough.

Trump and his cronies are bragging about their latest scam, Trump Accounts for your children.
In a perfect world it might be good, but in Trump's world it just a bargaining chip.
A Trump Account is untouchable until your child is 18.
If you can't pay for your child's basic needs like food, medicine, doctor bills and housing right now, your child may not even live long to see age 18.
Trump could care less.
If he cared he would not have cut SNAP and Medicaid for kids.
