(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.

(🧵) THREAD: There’s no purpose in debating Trump supporters on Venezuela. They lack the background to participate in a coherent conversation. Do they know Trump is backing a socialist despot over a capitalist who won the 2024 election by 34 points? No.
It gets worse from there.
1/ People without principles, like MAGAs, desperately alight on random anecdotes to try to “prove” points—as they don’t know how to *actually* prove a point, make an argument, hold a consistent position, marshal evidence, or maintain logical throughlines across diverse scenarios.
2/ So for instance, they’ll tell you that the justness of what Trump did is “proven” by how some Venezuelans reacted to it. But these are the same folks whose political ideology has long been grounded in denying international law and the sovereignty or interests of other nations.
As detailed in 2020 bestseller Proof of Corruption, Trump used Erik Prince, Rudy Giuliani and a megadonor to launch clandestine negotiations in Venezuela that would've effectuated some version of the deal. America is being lied to every which way.
What the NYT-bestselling Proof Series has shown—across 2,500 pages and over 15,000 reliable major media citations from around the world—is that what we think of as many different scandals is *one* scandal: the Trump-Russia Scandal. Ukraine, Israel, KSA, Venezuela... even Epstein.
The Trump-Russia Scandal, as a research topic, is so vast—it covers so many continents, decades, and scandals in various nations—that we can analogize being a scholar of it to being a scholar of the Cold War or the Gilded Age.
We keep speaking of trees without seeing the forest.
So blowing up the dead body of the man Trump deliriously claims stole the 2020 presidential election from him was part of a *law enforcement operation* targeting an entirely different leader? Pull the other leg now. en.apa.az/america/us-str…
It was almost exactly six years ago that Trump told us he thirsted to destroy key foreign cultural sites just to desecrate them and was told in reply—unambiguously—that this was a war crime.
Corporate media appears to be under-reporting or not reporting the mausoleum strike—a media victory for Trump because it at once hides a war crime, hides a fact that debunks Trump’s claims of this being a law enforcement op, and hides a key Venezuelan justification for vengeance.
This anodyne BS is how the NYT summarizes the most corrupt presidency in US history.
Trump said he didn't know what Project 2025 was; he lied.
He said he would get prices down; he lied.
He said he'd only deport criminals; he lied.
He started wars and attacked his own people.
He destroyed the White House. He took bribes. He pardoned monsters. He grifted taxpayers and investors out of billions. He covered up pedophilia. He committed war crimes. He enabled genocide. He savaged federal agencies. He engaged in stochastic terrorism. He simped for the rich.
He cut off student loan forgiveness. He did special business favors for the CCP. He destroyed small farms. His tariffs constituted the largest tax increase on Americans in decades. He told thousands of lies in public. He hid major medical issues. He spread racist disinformation.
UPDATE: CNN confirms that "the envelope [holding the Epstein-Nassar Note] was sent from the Metropolitan Correctional Center in New York City [where Epstein was being held] to Nassar"—*and* got vetted by federal officials.
Which explains the Virginia postmark (where the FBI is).
So (1) Why won’t the FBI release the 2020 handwriting analysis it did, if that analysis concluded the note was a forgery? (2) How did the FBI preclude the possibility—even *likelihood*—of dictation in 120 minutes? (3) Where’s the *real* Epstein-Nassar note we *know* Epstein sent?
On a separate but related note, I'm astonished at how many folks I thought smart bought the Trump FBI/DOJ explanation instantly—despite none of it making sense.
You realize these are just Trump personal lawyers with no ethics or fear of repercussions, right?
Trump posted this without knowing Nick Reiner was under arrest. He posted it assuming one of his fans murdered Rob Reiner. So if you want to know how Trump will react if fans start murdering his enemies, now you know. He'll celebrate and blame the victims.
Those claiming Trump knew he was commenting on a family dispute are not reading the confirmed, universally reported on post above. Trump makes very clear *his* understanding at the time he composed his post—which may have been last night—was that Rob was killed over his politics.
The post above is far more dangerous, disgusting, and diabolical than anyone is yet realizing. This isn't just Donald Trump pissing on the grave of a critic, it's him signaling that those who do violence in his name are justified because they were—definitionally—provoked into it.
