A pair of MUST reads at @newlinesmag — @shane_burley1 on Laura Loomer and Jewish MAGA's danse macabre, @BenLorber8 on the antisemitic core of MAGA's obsession with Epstein and why progressives have no business jumping on the bandwagon. Illuminating exercises in ideology critique.
The way the Trump admin has tried to deny/cover-up/spin the Epstein saga will be studied in crisis communications classes for years to come as an example of what not to do cnbc.com/2025/07/18/tru…
Folks, the rumours are true. We went to “the Tiny Desk” youtu.be/Gh9pCl1cL8A?si…
Broke: Release the Files Woke: Release the Pedophiles mediamatters.org/greg-kelly/new…
… no Alex Acosta? Really? They don’t want to hear from the federal prosecutor who gave Epstein his sweetheart plea deal, became Trump’s Labor Secretary, resigned when Epstein got back in the news, and is now on Newsmax’s board of directors? Fascinating.
NEWS: The Oversight Committee will subpoena the DOJ to release the Epstein files after today's subcmte vote. But subpoenas will also go to: Bill and Hillary Clinton, former AGs Alberto Gonzales, Loretta Lynch, Eric Holder, Merrick Garland, Bill Barr and Jeff Sessions as well…
This turning out to actually be true is actually kind of incredible?
New Standing Room Only! Today's excerpt: MAGA is outraged over the Epstein files, but don't think they care about sex abuse. You can now read SRO online, btw: salon-standingroomonly.beehiiv.com Today's song by Gorgon City.
Odds high they’re gonna trade leniency for a child sex trafficker in exchange for her false testimony exonerating Trump.
Justice demands courage. For the first time, the Department of Justice is reaching out to Ghislaine Maxwell to ask: what do you know? At @AGPamBondi’s direction, I’ve contacted her counsel. I intend to meet with her soon. No one is above the law—and no lead is off-limits.

New pod dropped this morning
S2E26: How to Fight Antisemitism in 2025 feat. @BenLorber8 How do we remain steadfast in our solidarity with Jewish people at a time where pro-Israel organizations are trying to warp the fight against antisemitism to silence and harm critics? (Links in reply)
Really appreciated @jaredlholt & @MichaelEHayden having me on Posting Through it, to explore why the discourse on fighting antisemitism is so broken today & what a better approach looks like. I've learned alot from them over the years, & in this convo too postthroughit.substack.com/p/026-fighting…
hey chat - is it a good thing when one of the credit reporting agencies sends a newsletter about preparing for a recession?

I joined Jonathan Capehart and Eugene Daniels on MSNBC this morning to discuss why conspiracy theories feel inseparable from our politics today and how the Trump administration has incorporated them into its policy priorities.
Under a potential deal, Bari Weiss would serve as an "ideological guide of sorts" at CBS News, according to Puck. (paywall) puck.news/was-colberts-c…
