(FACT) The ex-cop facing quadruple-homicide charges who Epstein said tried to kill him previously worked in the town where Trump National Golf Club is. Did anyone else note this? Someone sent me the connection via DM—and I'd be amazed if it wasn't already a topic of conversation.
PS/ Note that I'm only saying that it's an odd coincidence I expect an investigator would follow up on. This isn't some puerile attempt to take a single fact and extrapolate it into a theory. Briarcliff Manor is a hamlet of only 8,000 people, so that coincidence is... *very* odd.
PS2/ I've previously posted the major-media article confirming that Epstein told his lawyers that Tartaglione attacked him. And yes, it's clear that Epstein could've hurt Trump politically and possibly legally. So a Briarcliff Manor Trump-Tartaglione connection isn't irrelevant.
PS3/ Trump National Golf Club is *so far and away* the most important thing happening in Briarcliff Manor that it is by no means a stretch to say that a cop in Briarcliff Manor would likely have dealings with Trump's property (and employees/agents) at some point along the line.
PS4/ Repeat: I'm *only talking about the assault here*. I've said repeatedly the chance Epstein's *death* was a homicide was basically zero, and the autopsy report (below) confirms what I suspected. So again, this is only a thread about the July *assault*. nytimes.com/2019/08/16/nyr…
PS5/ The assault is relevant not only because it may have been an attempt to kill Epstein, but also because it led to (a) a situation in which he couldn't have a roommate, and (b) a controversial (quickly abandoned) suicide watch. IOW the assault was/is as odd as Epstein's death.

I just woke up from a long nap, can someone tell me if Trump has already apologized to the nation for falsely blaming the Kirk assassination on the left when—as with both his assassination attempts and 85% of political violence this century per the data—it was a far-right nutjob?
He is a Groyper. The Groypers are a far-right, neo-Nazi cult made up of young far-right males who thought Kirk was insufficiently far-right. thedailybeast.com/charlie-kirk-s…
Bomb threats against the Maryland General Assembly. Bomb threats against the Michigan lieutenant governor and his family. Bomb threats against 5 HBCUs. Two arrests for violent assaults in Idaho.
In 24 hours.
All Democratic/left-leaning victims.
All suspected MAGA perpetrators.
And that wasn't a full list—not even close.
Bomb threat against the Rhode Island Senate President. Bomb threat against the Rhode Island Majority Leader. Bomb threat against the New Mexico Senate Majority Leader. Once again all Democratic victims, all suspected MAGA perpetrators.
There's no reason to have a conversation about political violence based in rhetoric rather than data.
I don't need to note that every bomb threat on Election Day in 2024 was a MAGA bomb threat.
I don't need to mention January 6, Paul Pelosi, or the two dead Minnesota Democrats.
There was significantly less political violence in America before the 2016 presidential campaign. We all know why.
That doesn’t change that what happened today—in both Utah and Colorado—were tragedies.
It just underscores that revisionist history won’t solve America's problems.
Donald Trump transformed politics into an ultraviolent Thunderdome.
He did it for his own advancement, and he didn’t care what the consequences would be.
It’s *also* true that since Trump poisoned our politics there’s been violence from both Left and Right, though mostly Right.
Both Trump assassination plots I condemned immediately and unreservedly. Both would-be assassins were Republicans. The assassin who killed Minnesota’s Speaker was also Republican. So was the man who plotted to kill Pelosi. But there have been leftist assassins too. I condemn all.
There's no lie Elon Musk and his racist friends won't tell to try to hurt nonwhites—or even, I fear, to try to get deranged others to *literally* hurt nonwhites.
And we know these racists want to cause pain because a two-second Grok search would destroy every one of their lies.
If you read the comments on Musk's racist post, it's person after person after person absolutely convinced that Muslims never migrate to other Muslim countries but only come to Europe or America and only do so as part of some sort of invasion. These folks are touched in the head.
The history of human migration, by whatever group—of whatever race or ethnicity or religion—is that sometimes migrants are looking for a very similar place, sometimes a slightly different place, sometimes a very different place.
That has been human nature for thousands of years.
The manifesto of the Minnesota shooter has been translated—and it's all about his hatred of Jews, Blacks, Mexicans, illegal immigrants, Somalis... none of this had to do with him being trans and major media *knows* it.
So why won't it say so?
1/ The manifesto uses the most vile slurs imaginable to describe Jews and Blacks, groups MAGA is hostile to.
The manifesto uses the most vile rhetoric imaginable to speak of illegal immigrants, another group Maga is hostile to.
And it uses 4chan-speak. 4chan is a MAGA hotbed.
2/ Everyone in America knows at this point that MAGA is a fascist movement and that the first group it wants to start treating like the Nazis did Jews are transgender persons. So the second the possibility the shooter was trans arose, all of us should have apprehended the danger.
1/ I recognize that I often say this when I am speaking of extremely deep-dive curatorial research into Trump and two discrete topics—Jeffrey Epstein and January 6—but it is true: what is in this book will shock you even if you believe you cannot be shocked on these topics.
2/ I want to issue a warning to those with sensitivities surrounding the subject of sex crimes and pedophilia. It is almost certain that this epic work will be triggering for you so, do read with caution or decide whether it even makes sense for you to read this at all.
