And just like that, it’s completely VANISHED from the media. A sitting congressman, Ted Lieu, said on the record the Epstein files are being blocked because they show Trump raped and threatened to kill children. Let’s keep this in the spotlight every day.

we’ve entered the "ceo eats a burger” phase of late-stage capitalism where multi-millionaires pretend to have mustard on their faces to build brand trust with people who can't afford rent

MAGA Calls Democrats "Communists" The claim: Democrats are communists/Marxists/socialists trying to destroy America The reality: • Democrats support regulated capitalism, not seizing means of production • No abolition of private property • No worker ownership of industry • Even the progressive wing (Bernie, AOC) are democratic socialists at most — advocating Nordic-style social programs within capitalism • Biden, Harris, Pelosi, Schumer = pro-business centrists by global standards Verdict: Absurd propaganda. Democrats are center-left capitalists, closer to European Christian Democrats than to actual communists. Democrats Call MAGA "Fascists/Nazis" The claim: MAGA is a fascist movement The reality - Check against Umberto Eco's 14 characteristics of fascism: ✅ 1. Cult of tradition - "Make America Great Again" mythology ✅ 2. Rejection of modernism - Anti-education, anti-expertise, anti-science ✅ 3. Action for action's sake - "Fight fight fight!" without coherent policy ✅ 4. Disagreement is treason - RINO purges, loyalty tests, "enemy of the people" ✅ 5. Fear of difference - Xenophobia, anti-immigrant, anti-Muslim ✅ 6. Appeal to frustrated middle class - Economic anxiety exploitation ✅ 7. Nationalism + conspiracy - Deep state, globalists, replacement theory ✅ 8. Enemies weak AND strong - "Snowflake libs" yet powerful deep state ✅ 9. Pacifism is treason - Questioning Ukraine aid = unpatriotic ✅ 10. Contempt for the weak - Mocking disabled, POWs, immigrants ✅ 11. Cult of heroism - Jan 6 "patriots," martyrdom complex ✅ 12. Machismo - Toxic masculinity, contempt for women ✅ 13. Selective populism - Trump speaks for "real Americans" only ✅ 14. Newspeak - "Alternative facts," constant redefinition of terms Additional fascist markers: • Attempted coup (Jan 6) • Rejection of democratic norms • Strongman worship • Scapegoating minorities • Undermining free press • Loyalty purges • Nostalgic nationalism Verdict: MAGA checks nearly every box for fascist movement characteristics. Which Is Closer to Truth? Democrats calling MAGA fascist: Descriptive and evidence-based • Based on observable behavior matching fascist characteristics • Documented in political science literature • Matches historical patterns MAGA calling Democrats communist: Pure projection/propaganda • No evidence of actual communist policies • Used to radicalize base and justify extremism • Classic authoritarian tactic (make enemies sound existential) The Key Difference Democrats: Center-left regulated capitalists (European-style social democracy) MAGA: Authoritarian nationalist movement with textbook fascist characteristics Why MAGA Uses "Communist" It's strategic projection: 1. Justifies extremism - "We have to be extreme because they're communists!" 2. Historical baggage - Americans fear communism (Cold War conditioning) 3. Muddies the waters - "Both sides use scary labels, so ignore them all" 4. Primes the base - When Democrats call MAGA fascist (accurately), it sounds like tit-for-tat The Uncomfortable Truth One side is using hyperbolic propaganda. The other is making an accurate historical comparison. MAGA isn't "like Nazis" in every detail (no Holocaust, no world war yet). But they're running the same playbook that brought fascists to power historically: • Undermine democratic institutions ✓ • Cult of personality ✓ • Nationalism + scapegoating ✓ • Attack free press ✓ • Reject election results ✓ • Attempt coup ✓ • Purge intellectuals/expertise ✓ Democrats aren't anywhere close to communism. They're not even close to European social democrats. MAGA is disturbingly close to historical fascism. That's not partisan rhetoric — it's pattern recognition.

The CIA just stopped publishing their World Factbook and took every page, including the archived copies of previous versions! This sucks. It was public domain, so I recovered the 2020 edition (the last one published as a zip file) and shared it to GitHub simonwillison.net/2026/Feb/5/the…

Sources in the Venezuela opposition tell Sky News that tonight’s operation to “capture” Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro and his wife, was part of a “negotiated exit” between Maduro and the United States.

Trump claimed he cut Epstein off in the early 2000’s but these new Epstein emails prove he was still hanging out with him in 2017, 2018 and even 2019. Trump’s whole lie just got completely exposed.

BREAKING: Tara Palmieri says "jaw-dropping" revelations in the Epstein files will implicate no fewer than 30 identifiable, powerful people on both sides of the political spectrum once all the files are released. Share widely. #StopJohnsonsEpsteinCoverup

This is career-ending for Megyn Kelly. 15 year olds are CHILDREN. They can’t drive. They can’t see rated R movies. But disgusting 50 year old men should be allowed to rape them? Goodbye. Forever.
Republican Accountability@AccountableGOP

Megyn Kelly: "I know somebody very close to this case…Jeffrey Epstein, in this person's view, was not a pedophile…He was into the barely legal type, like he liked 15 year old girls…He wasn't into like 8 year olds…There's a difference between a 15 year old and a 5 year old."

While Trump murders people on boats for supposedly trafficking drugs, Jonathan Braun, a convicted drug trafficker serving a 10 year sentence he pardoned in 2021, will be sentenced in court today after he sexually assaulted a woman after Trump freed him from prison.

It’s just so weird how every single time republicans are about to totally self destruct democrats rush in and do something that bails them out. Probably nothing.
