(🧵) Major media should be ashamed.

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.

(🚨) 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… 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.

(🧵) 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.

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. 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.

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.

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.

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

Can I make the blindingly obvious observation that now that we know Trump and his crew doctored the Epstein video we can't possibly trust that anything else they release will be all they actually have?

Wouldn't you just assume documents are being *burned and shredded* right now? Like aren't we actually past the point of no return here? The second we learned that they cut out 3 minutes from the Epstein video and tried to pass it off as a legitimate piece of evidence, wasn't that pretty much the end of any Epstein credibility for the whole administration?

What would Trump do if this song went viral today? WARNING: This song goes hard and makes no apologies.

I have no difficulty saying that Trump and Musk caused some of the 50+ flood deaths in Texas.

And here's why: these two men with no expertise in disaster preparedness were told not to cut the positions they cut, and were told people would die if they did.

And then people died. Moreover, Democrats are never going to start winning elections again until they're willing to call a thing just what it is.

Texas Democrats should be clear and persistent in saying that public service cuts overseen by non-experts desperate for billionaire tax cuts killed people.

(📢) NEW at PROOF: A Feud of the Century update from a bestselling biographer of both the Richest Man on Earth and the Most Powerful Man on Earth.

“Trump Is Coming for Musk. Here Are 20 Reasons Musk Has the Upper Hand, Even If He Doesn’t Realize It” (🔗): sethabramson.substack.com/p/trump-is-sti… 1/ If I had to rank by how annoying they are the false narratives I hear folks who don't study these men professionally advancing, the claim that the Feud is fake would easily rank #1.

There's *no evidence whatsoever* substantiating the claim that any part of the Feud is fake.

(🚨) EXCLUSIVE: This report is epic, crossing years, continents, and scandals some readers won’t have encountered before—from golf to crypto, intel to international law. Everything comes back to why the Iran War happened, and why it’ll likely restart.

🔗: sethabramson.substack.com/p/exclusive-ex… 1/ I’ve been thinking about what else I want to say on this subject since I first posted this report a few hours ago. The report is of course extremely long, detailed, and well-sourced, so there’s much that I could write that would simply be redundant.

Stunning how media turned passage of the Abominable Bill into a will they/won't they romcom with a July 4 deadline for Cinderella to kiss the prince, rather than a situation in which members of Congress say they're terrified they or their family will be killed if they cross Trump The only journalistically responsible way to cover what's happening in DC is to report that the Dear Leader of a cult set an arbitrary deadline for his cult to dance for him on penalty of sinister punishments, and now we're watching a gruesome public whipping unfold in real time

(🚨) WAIT... WHAT??

Agents of Trump business and political partners MBS, MBZ and el-Sisi were secretly in the White House as Trump agreed to go to war with their enemy Iran?

How is this not the big news right now? How is this not bigger than every other story media is covering? This is beyond journalistic malpractice.

We're talking about matters of war and peace—historic lies told by a POTUS to push America to war—and CNN is burying the lede that the attack was a byproduct of secret negotiations with those who support Trump financially and politically?

(🚨) BREAKING: Exactly as happened in 2020 after Trump illegally assassinated the second-most-popular Iranian—and therefore as Trump could easily have predicted, and as media should already have forecast for Americans—Iran has just launched missiles at multiple US military bases. CNN:

🤔

2018: Gen. Kurilla—“Israel’s favorite general”—is made CENTCOM Chief of Staff
2018: CENTCOM urges Trump to add Israel to CENTCOM’s Area of Responsibility
2021: 4 days before leaving office, Trump adds Israel to CENTCOM AOR
2021: Process making Kurilla CENTCOM commander begins More: yahoo.com/news/jacked-go…

(🚨) MAJOR BREAKING NEWS: Trump Tells America He Planned His Iran Policy—Including Unprovoked Major Military Strikes—“A Long Time Ago” and As a “Team” With Israeli War Criminal Netanyahu, Confirming the Entirety of the Proof Trilogy and Proof Project in Stunning Public Confession (PS) Am watching CNN and there is no acknowledgment whatsoever that Trump said this. It was far and away the only significant thing he said in his two-minute, somewhat mumbling declaration.

(🚨) I’ve never—in 30 years in journalism—published a report like this: one that could really bring *hope*. I spent 15 hours curating/labeling photos from hundreds of No Kings Day protests. It’s the largest archive of its kind (+ lots of Easter eggs).

🔗: sethabramson.substack.com/p/over-250-pho… 1/ I almost don’t know where to start in talking about the last 15 hours. They were emotional. I have renewed hope for my country. I also feel renewed awe at its size and scope.

(🧵) THREAD: Selected comments from the (highly conservative) NEW YORK POST chat during the 2025 Trump Micropenis Parade:

🔻 "I've seen more people at a kindergarten parade"
🔻 "What an epic fail"
🔻 "The UFC is sponsoring federal events now?"
🔻 "Okay this is getting sad now" More:

🔻 "Criiiiiinge"
🔻 "There is no one there"
🔻 "This is such a boring parade"
🔻 "This parade blows"
🔻 "Live band would've been better"
🔻 "Where are the people?"
🔻 "This is a national embarrassment"
🔻 "Chat is more entertaining than the parade"

Stephen Miller—who's from the area and knows better—calls LA an "occupied city" as part of a ploy to justify a violent, fascist crackdown. Courtesy of Matt Snyder, this map of LA features a to-scale red dot indicating where the protests are.

You'll have to zoom in and look hard. When the truth of this moment is rewritten by MAGA fascists via some screeching refrain—"Remember when they burned LA to the ground??"—think of this map. Remember how most of LA just went about its daily life. Remember how the images and videos were deliberate misrepresentations.

Dallas is America’s most conservative big city. It’s the Citadel of the Far Right. It’s where QAnon holds conventions. It’s where Flynn hinted at a coup of the Biden administration. It’s where Trump’s most radical megadonors are.

It’s where I’d most fear a pretextual Kent State. I’m unnerved that suddenly Dallas—of all places!—is on my TV with cops acting aggressively. This makes little sense, especially given the tiny size and comparative somnambulance of the protest there.

I worry quite a bit about a rogue QAnonist cop deliberately inciting something.
