Hey @CNN: everything about this piece must be changed immediately. You give the impression DOJ has reopened a probe into *Clinton*—when Barr's lackeys confirmed the FBI was *right* to close that case. *This* is a probe into how the *FBI* handled that case. cnn.com/2020/09/24/pol…
PS/ Given that the fraudulent reopening of the Clinton case in October 2016—compelled by illegal extortionate threats by Trump's agents—swung the 2016 election, how dare CNN leave the impression, via image and text, *weeks before the 2020 vote*, that Clinton is under probe again?
PS2/ Here's the first paragraph of Chapter 6 of PROOF OF CORRUPTION. Anyone can readily confirm that John Huber found *nothing* amiss at the Clinton Foundation. If Barr wants to investigate how the FBI handled that case, OK. It has *nothing* to do with Clinton. Shame on you, CNN. Image
PS3/ Look at the headline: "Prosecutor tapped by Barr to investigate Russia probe is now looking into Clinton Foundation." CNN and the NYT just ran a political commercial for Trump that'll amp up his voters, as now they *wrongly* think the Clinton Foundation is under probe again.
PS4/ Instead of just reporting the news—"Barr Asks Durham to Compare Clinton and Trump Probes for Signs of Bias, Despite Prior Finding By DOJ IG Horowitz That No Such Bias Existed"—@CNN and @nytimes have falsely implied there are new facts to probe in the Clinton Foundation case.
PS5/ If you doubt what a solid CNN/the NYT just did for Trump *when they should be reporting on the Trump coup plot*, imagine the political impact it would've had if Barr had announced "We're investigating Clinton!" But he wouldn't have dared. CNN/the NYT just gave that to Trump.
PS6/ I'm so angry right now. John Huber—*under Barr*—*cleared* the Clinton Foundation. Want to know the first time Huber's name appears in the @nytimes article on Barr having Durham probe *FBI* actions in that case? *The second-to-last paragraph*. This is *terrible* journalism.
PS7/ Now "Clinton Foundation" is trending, everyone *wrongly* thinks Clinton is under investigation again, it's weeks before the 2020 election, these same errors cost Democrats the 2016 election, #TrumpCoupPlot should be everywhere and isn't, and all because the *NYT screwed up*.
PS8/ Meanwhile, anyone who read Proof of Corruption is—once again—ahead of the news, as readers of the Proof series *know* John Huber looked at the Clinton Foundation for years and found *nothing*. Want to know who wants this topic back in the news? You guessed it: the Kremlin.
PS9/ The Kremlin spent years spreading conspiracy theories about the Clinton Foundation, but after Sessions and Barr lackey Huber found *nothing*, the Kremlin thought that gambit was over. But NYT, CNN, and others just did Putin a solid by falsely reporting the issue an open one.
PS10/ All this on a day when the *only* news focused on should have been that Trump is plotting a coup of our government if he loses the election. Instead, we get "trending" what is effectively a Trump-Kremlin infomercial for Trump's re-election. Again: I am *so* angry right now.

(🚨) The seventh book in the NYT-bestselling Proof Series is PROOF OF DEVILRY: THE CRIMES OF DONALD TRUMP, GHISLAINE MAXWELL, AND JEFFREY EPSTEIN.

It’s so large—a 600-page epic—that it’s being released in three parts (on 8/17, 8/24, and 8/31).

Book One: sethabramson.substack.com/p/part-1-proof…Image
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.

(🧵) Trump and his team are lying to MAGAs about what is going to happen with unhoused persons in DC—a thread.
1/ In case you doubted it, Karoline Leavitt confirmed today that the Trump administration knows nothing about unhoused persons or homelessness.

They don’t know how shelters work. They don’t understand mental health/addiction services intake.

They’re just going to jail everyone.
2/ She promised America unhoused persons would be given a choice: shelter, mental health/addiction services, or jail (apparently on a bogus charge that would lead to a long, unjustified pretrial incarceration at massive expense to taxpayers).

All of those options are fantasies.

I studied Criminal Law at Harvard Law School under Alan Dershowitz and went on to be a criminal defense attorney.

The post below is one of the most ignorant posts I’ve ever seen about Criminal Justice and I only just now learned this man is faculty at Harvard Law.

How? No idea. Image
Crime is a key driver of public policy—almost always to the detriment of society—a fact that explains why everything tied to it is supposed to be described and defined in exact (and exacting) terms: e.g. statutes, crime data, Constitutional amendments as interpreted by precedent.
As it happens, I also have a background in Sociology—and even in the allegedly softer of the social sciences (including those, like Sociology, often affiliated with the study of Criminal Justice and the Law) the phrase “pervasive social disorder” would be considered preposterous.

This is the serial child rapist the Dear Leader is about to pardon to save himself.

Any MAGA providing rhetorical cover for Donald Trump as he seeks to cover up years of pimping teens—teens he'd fed booze and drugs—at the Plaza Hotel in the 1990s is as good as a pedo themselves.
Trump had his own teen rape victim procurer. He even turned his sex trafficking ring at the Plaza into a business that thereafter was accused of human rights violations by its workers—who deemed themselves slaves. What Epstein did in FL Trump not only allowed but mirrored in NYC.
All this is based on existing reporting. I've compiled hundreds and hundreds and hundreds of reliable major-media sources on these matters into PROOF OF DEVILRY, which will be published shortly as the seventh book in the NYT-bestselling Proof Series.

Donald Trump is a pedophile.

CORRECTIONS:

(1) Trump and Epstein became friends in 1987, not 1990. The New York Times inexplicably cuts 3 years off their 17-plus-year friendship.

(2) Their friendship did *not* end because Epstein was a creep. It ended over a Florida real estate deal. nytimes.com/2025/07/19/us/…
To the credit of the NYT, it does eventually clarify Point #2 in the report.

I do wish it spent more time on the fact that an anonymous person dimed out Epstein after Trump got angry at Epstein over the real estate deal in 2004—and that Trump has a history of diming people out.
That question alone could change everything.

If in fact Trump extended his long history of being a disgusting snitch only when it personally benefits him by reporting Epstein to the police in 2004—or having an agent do it—it would confirm he knew exactly what Epstein was up to.

Everyone in America needs to read this FREE—I’ve gifted it below—report from the conservative WALL STREET JOURNAL about Trump and Epstein.

Apparently the president has now threatened to sue the WSJ over this 100% accurate report due to how damaging it is.
wsj.com/politics/trump…
Holy actual literal shit OMG Image
By the way, the answer to the riddle in the note (in effect, “What do you get for men [Trump and Epstein] who have everything?”) is “You get them something one isn’t *allowed* to have.”

Trump then writes that he and Epstein have the thing they want in common—and it “never ages.”
