Jeffrey Epstein details close relationship with Trump in newly released tapes
Author and journalist Michael Wolff has released audio tapes that appear to detail how Donald Trump had a close social relationship with the late sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein that the disgraced ex-president has long denied. The tapes, released as part of the Fire and Fury podcast series by Wolff, author of three books about Trump’s first term and 2020 bid for a second, and James Truman, former NME journalist and Condé Nast editorial director, include Epstein’s thoughts about the inner workings of the MAGA cult leader's inner circle. Wolff says the recordings were made during a 2017 discussion with Epstein about writing his biography. Wolff also claims the excerpt tape is a mere fraction of some “100 hours of Epstein talking about the inner workings of the Trump White House and about his longstanding, deep relationship with Donald Trump." Well, no time like the present. Let's hear 'em, Michael!

Harris assails Trump for saying Liz Cheney should have rifles "shooting at her" to see how she feels about war
Vice President Harris said Friday it was “disqualifying” for Donald Trump to say former Rep. Liz Cheney, one of the disgraced ex-president’s most prominent Republican critics, should have rifles “shooting at her” to see how she feels about sending troops to fight. Heckuva closing sales pitch he's making there!

Donald Trump's mass deportation plans would ensnare US citizens and tear the country apart
The disgraced ex-president's most significant policy plank in his third presidential campaign is to implement a system of mass deportation to remove up to 20 MILLION noncitizens from the United States, a plan that apparently aims to not only remove people living here illegally but also to chase away ― or accidentally round up ― US citizens as well. Trump is promising to deploy the military and deputize local police officers to round up millions of people, detain them in makeshift camps, and then ship them off to other countries ― whether or not the destination is the person’s country of origin. It sounds f*cking crazy because it is f*cking crazy. Can we please be done with this nightmare of a cult leader once and for all next Tuesday?

Pregnant Texas teen died after three ER visits due to medical impact of abortion ban
A pregnant Texas teenager died after three separate visits to an emergency room in attempts to get care in another incident that has highlighted the medical impact of the loss of abortion rights in the US. Nevaeh Crain, 18, had gone to two different emergency rooms within 12 hours in October of 2023, each time returning home feeling worse than before. Crain was only diagnosed with strep throat upon her first visit. The hospital did not investigate her sharp abdominal cramps, according to reporting by ProPublica. Crain is one of at least two Texas women who died under the state’s abortion ban brought in after the US Supreme Court overturned the federal right to abortion. Josseli Barnica, 28, died after a miscarriage in 2021. These incidents are seen as evidence of a new reality where US healthcare professionals in states with new tough abortion restrictions are hesitant or even afraid to give care to pregnant mothers over fear of legal repercussions. Texas’s abortion ban threatens prison time for interventions that end a fetal heartbeat, regardless of whether the pregnancy is wanted or not. Had enough of this bullshit? Remember this Tuesday!

Republican Party has already raised $90 million to help fund post-election legal fights
The GOP has amassed a staggering war chest to wage a full-scale legal battle against Tuesday's election results, should Kamala Harris justly prevail. Donald Trump and his MAGA minions have been laying the groundwork for the past four years for another baseless assault on democracy, this time with years of planning and lessons learned from the 60+ court cases they lost following the cult leader's drubbing in 2020. Let's hope Democrats are up for the challenge, because it is definitely coming.
