Democrats Humiliate Themselves AGAIN With Another Epstein Drop

https://pjmedia.com/matt-margolis/2025/12/04/democrats-humiliate-themselves-again-with-another-epstein-drop-n4946693

House Oversight Democrats embarrassed themselves again on Wednesday with yet another stunt masquerading as transparency. They released what they hyped as never-before-seen photos and videos from Jeffrey Epstein's private island.

Dems postured as noble seekers of justice in their post on X:

https://x.com/OversightDems/status/1996254530447569384

BREAKING: Oversight Dems have received never-before-seen photos and videos of Jeffrey Epstein's private island that are a harrowing look behind Epstein’s closed doors.

See for yourself. We won’t stop fighting until we end this cover-up and deliver justice for the survivors.

“These new images are a disturbing look into the world of Jeffrey Epstein and his island. We are releasing these photos and videos to ensure public transparency in our investigation and to help piece together the full picture of Epstein’s horrific crimes. We won’t stop fighting until we deliver justice for the survivors,” Rep. Robert Garcia, Ranking Member of the Committee on Oversight and Government Reform, said in a statement. “It’s time for President Trump to release all the files, now.”

There was just one problem: The images weren't new at all.

The post turned out to be the latest humiliation of Democrats in their attempts to anoint themselves as the party of transparency regarding the Epstein files. In fact, investigative journalist James O'Keefe and his O'Keefe Media Group had already made those same images public roughly seven months earlier.

Besides the fact that these photos had been made public months ago, are people supposed to forget that LIEden's MalAdministration had - and did not make public - these photos for years?

Soros-Backed Black Friday Boycott Bombs, Holiday Shopping Sets a New Record

https://www.drewberquist.com/2025/12/soros-backed-black-friday-boycott-bombs-holiday-shopping-sets-a-new-record-watch/

Democrats’ call for consumer boycotts over the Thanksgiving shopping weekend failed to gain traction as Black Friday and the days that followed produced record-setting sales figures nationwide.

The campaign, known online as #WABIT (We Ain’t Buying It), targeted three major retailers—Target, Home Depot and Amazon—accusing them of “colluding” with the Trump administration on deportation and tax policies.

The effort was supported by Soros-backed Indivisible.org and routed donations through ActBlue.

U.S. online Black Friday spending reached $11.8 billion, a 9.1% increase from 2024, according to reported projections.

Mobile purchases accounted for over half of online sales. Total retail spending rose 4.1% year-over-year, with e-commerce up 10.4% and in-store sales rising 1.7%.

Unsurprisingly. Have any blacktivists howled, yet, that this was a racist buycott?

Election Integrity Push: DOJ on track to compel voter roll cleanups in over half of U.S. states

https://justthenews.com/politics-policy/elections/election-integrity-push-doj-track-compel-voter-roll-cleanups-over-half-us

The Trump Justice Department is on track to compel more than half the states in America to clean up their voter rolls and believes sloppiness that left dead people and non-citizens in a position to vote in Democrat-run states is intentional, a top prosecutor told Just the News.

"The sloppiness of the elections in blue states is no accident. It is on purpose. It is a feature, not a bug," Assistant Attorney General for Civil Rights Harmeet J. Dhillon told the Just the News, No Noise television show on Wednesday night.
...
"What we can do at the federal government level is ensure that our federal election laws are observed, and that includes each state's requirement to keep clean voter rolls," she added. "That is a fundamental basic."

Dhillon spoke one day after her division filed lawsuits against six Democrat-run states — Maryland, Delaware, Rhode Island, New Mexico, Washington state and Vermont — seeking to compel them to turn over to the DOJ their voter rolls to be inspected for abnormalities, outdated names or noncompliant names.

She also struck a deal last week with North Carolina to force it to review and fix over 100,000 voters' names on rolls in that battleground state that were added without complying with state law.

In CA, keeping voter rolls up to date is one of the SecState's official duties. I doubt CA's SecState has been doing this past 3 or 4 decades, however.

Trump Pardons Democrat Who Accused Him of Inciting Insurrection, Voted for Impeachment.

https://thenationalpulse.com/2025/12/03/trump-pardons-democrat-who-accused-him-of-inciting-insurrection-voted-for-impeachment/

President Donald J. Trump announced Wednesday on Truth Social that he would pardon Representative Enrique “Henry” Cuellar (D-TX), who was indicted last year on charges of bribery and money laundering. The pardon also extends to Cuellar’s wife, Imelda, who faced related charges.

In the Truth Social post, Trump accused the former Biden government of having targeted Cuellar over his opposition to its mass immigration policies. “For years, the Biden Administration weaponized the Justice System against their Political Opponents, and anyone who disagreed with them. One of the clearest examples of this was when Crooked Joe used the FBI and DOJ to ‘take out’ a member of his own Party after Highly Respected Congressman Henry Cuellar bravely spoke out against Open Borders, and the Biden Border ‘Catastrophe,'” President Trump wrote.
...
In 2024, Cuellar and his wife were federally charged related to foreign corruption. In January 2022, federal agents raided Cuellar’s home and campaign office in Texas as part of an investigation into a group of U.S. businessmen with ties to Azerbaijan. At the time, the Texas Democrat pledged to cooperate with the federal investigation.

It would seem that Trump is not as vindictive as Dems and their MSM claim.

'Abortion Is Everything,' the Children's Book You'll Want to Buy for Christmas

Announcing a very special new book in the SYA shop! This beautiful hardcover book was created to talk with kids about abortion. 📚

Abortion Is Everything speaks directly to five to eight-year-olds about what abortion is, how it might feel, and why people have abortions. With accessible, inclusive language, Abortion Is Everything frames abortion as the actualization of a uniquely human superpower: our capacity to imagine the future and make choices that lead us towards the life we envision. Abortion is a tool that allows human beings to shape our destinies, and which has shaped the entire world around us.

Parents, caregivers, and educators who work with children have long been searching for a tool to talk with kids about abortion, especially given the volume of political noise currently surrounding the issue. Written by artist and educator Rachel Kessler (@wanawariseattle , Typing Explosion), activist Amelia Bonow (Shout Your Abortion), and illustrated by Emily Nokes (@tacocatband , @thestrangerseattle ), Abortion Is Everything introduces the concept of abortion in a way that empowers parents and kids to begin rewriting our cultural scripts about abortion at the most foundational level.

Somehow I think too many children will start wondering whether Mommy considered aborting them for that book to become a childhood favorite the way Alice in Wonderland or The Velveteen Rabbit have.

My mother is (was?) so fervently pro-abortion, I have spent my entire life wondering if she ever really wanted me.

Interesting. I knew Trump had pardoned him, but the article I read conveniently left out the part about insurrection and impeachment.

There are some interesting counter-Prog-narrative aspects to this. The first is that the Cuellars' daughters thought it worth their time to write a letter to Trump and think of a way to be sure he would see it (IOW, they trusted Truth Social not to give them a granite pizza). They at least thought it possible that Trump is not the hateful racist Progs claim he is (maybe they saw pictures of Trump's senior officials?).

Another interesting aspect is that while Trump is pursuing people who broke laws in their lawfare against him, he is not blindly vengeful, as Progs claim Trump is. Obviously, Trump was and is not happy with Pelosiroo's shampeachments, but while Cuellar supported Pelosiroo's Hate-Trump efforts, Trump recognized that the Cuellars had been railroaded to some degree.

There also is a gap - of how many weeks or months, I don't know - between the writing of the letter and the pardons. I'm speculating that Trump had Justice Department people look into the Cuellars and realized that what was done to them was disproportionate to whatever they did - i.e. a mole hill got Himalayanized.

As for the bolded red, I’m surprised that more people can’t see this. The Democrat machine is very similar to DU. The DemonRat overlords decide what is to be and the followers (even the lesser overlords) MUST agree with that. If they don’t, they are apt to be shunned, expelled, jailed, etc. The DemonRats love to call Trump a dictator and his voters as members of a cult, but there is nothing more authoritarian and cult-like than the DemonRat Party.

Joe Biden Emerges From Dems' Forced Retirement to Remind Us We Are the United States of... WHAT!?

Former President Joe Biden might have been shown to the door by his own party in the latter half of 2024, but he's still getting out on occasion to remind everybody that the "sharp as a tack" narrative might not have been totally on the up-and-up.

On Friday, Biden spoke to an LGBTQIA+++1234==#@56& event, and it got a glowing review from TIME, which called the autopen administration the most inclusive in history:

After presiding over the most inclusive Administration in U.S. history, Joe Biden returned to Washington on Friday and urged a room of LGBTQ donors, activists, and candidates to step up the fight against Donald Trump’s efforts to erase or warp his legacy.

“Folks, Donald Trump and his Republicans are trying to derail and distort our fight for equality. They’re trying to turn it into something scary, something sinister,” Biden said as he accepted a lifetime achievement award from the LGBTQ+ Victory Institute, a group that trains and funds candidates. “There is nothing more American than the notion of equality. Nothing, nothing, nothing.”

"Efforts to erase or warp his legacy." HAHAHA! Biden's "legacy" comes pre-warped and there's no effort required on the part of the Trump administration to make that happen.

In any case, here's Biden talking about the United States of... whatever. Watch, listen and remember what the previous four years were like:

Yeah, the reason the Trump Administration isn't the "most inclusive" despite the many ethnic minorities, women, and homosexuals in top leadership positions is that these ethnic minorities, women, and homosexuals are the wrong sort of  ethnic minorities, women, and homosexuals. They're race-, sex-, and LGBTQRSTUVWXYZ-traitors.

A different take on LIEden's speechification:

Old Man Starts Yelling, Whispering Creepily, Saying Weird Things

https://pjmedia.com/robert-spencer/2025/12/06/old-man-starts-yelling-whispering-creepily-saying-weird-things-yes-old-joe-biden-made-a-speech-n4946761

Old Joe Biden put down his ice cream cone and rejoined the fray on Friday, delivering a major speech at the International LGBTQ+ Leaders Conference in Washington, D.C. The first question that leaps to mind is connection with this is: What on earth were the gays thinking? Whose bright idea was it to have Old Joe Biden, of all people, headline their conference? Didn’t they know that the man can barely string a coherent sentence together even when he is simply reading it off a teleprompter? In any case, the queer gathering got exactly what you’d expect.

Fox News reported Saturday that Old Joe “was urging elected officials, leaders and advocates to ‘continue the fight’ for equality when he slurred his words.” The man who was never really president of the United States, but who held the title for four years said: “We just have to get up. As long as we keep the faith … and remember who the hell we are. We're the United States of Amerigottit, that's who we are! We're the U.S.!"
...
Biden also introduced the world to his former press secretary, “Kareem.” He meant, of course, Karine Jean-Pierre, but what he actually said was this: “Well, when I took office I promised to have an administration that looked like America.” Apparently thinking he was still in office, he continued: I’ve kept my promise. Not just for the community, but my press secretary, 'Kareem.'"

Sad, even elder abuse.
