@wdlindsy If you’re exclusively watching Fox News, you might not know much at all.

(Remember that study a few years back? It said that people who watched Fox News knew less about the news than people who watched no news. There was a measurable net loss in understanding of the world.)

"Across the world, you are seeing leaders and elites, like the former Prince Andrew, who are going to jail or losing their positions, and that’s not happening in the United States. People want to understand, 'Well, why isn’t it happening here?'”

"The guy was an entire hive! Notes The Guardian,

'He took a holiday with a Libyan gun smuggler, criticised a Serious Fraud Office investigation into corruption involving the arms giant BAE and lunched at Buckingham Palace with a leading member of the subsequently deposed Tunisian dictatorship.'"

"He and his welfare-fraud wife were living the dream, with a Royal Lodge and six-cottage estate, plus a Swiss vacation chalet, security, and income of about a million bucks a year. (And no matter what, Andrew will still get his $336k a year navy pension.) Yet they were always broke, with Fergie begging Epstein for money (and bringing her young daughters around him)!"

Holy shit

Jay Kuo provides a sobering rundown of important reasons that, though Trump and his sycophants claim he has been "exonerated" in the Epstein discussion, the opposite is true — and more information (and more damning information) will almost certainly come to light.

@pthane Thank you for the link. I appreciate it!

@wdlindsy
Based on analysis by writer and attorney Jay Kuo, claims that Donald Trump has been "exonerated" regarding his connections to Jeffrey Epstein are false, with evidence suggesting a deliberate cover-up and the likelihood of more damning information emerging.

[wendythedruid@thistlenfern.org]

@wdlindsy Kuo always gives a good take on this.
JeffT and I have comments about him all the time.

[wdlindsy@toad.social]

@wendythedruid Yes, he always has first-rate commentary.

[fenixmaster@mastodon.social]

@wdlindsy People at Fox can't count.

[wdlindsy@toad.social]

@noodlemaz Much depends on how we intend to construe that phrase, seems to me.

[wdlindsy@toad.social]

@noodlemaz It seems to me they're the ones who have co-opted that label. But it also seems important to meet it head on from within religious traditions that challenge its authenticitiy.

[wendythedruid@thistlenfern.org]

@wdlindsy Of the substack spaces I support still (having come from there, and instead going to beehiiv), Kuo, JeffT (my journalist hero), and 3 others (Erin Reed being one of them also), are the only ones I support still with my money.

[drtuck@mastodon.world]

@wdlindsy Will MAGA finally understand Trump has been lying to them and using them all along? Who was mentioned 1million times in the Epstein files? He knew, he participated, he is covering it up. He has called his supporters gullible, and useful idiots long enough. Get off your knees and stand up.

"Police officers who came for Britain’s fallen prince on his 66th birthday punctured the defining perception of the Jeffrey Epstein scandal: that wealthy elites are shielded from scrutiny because of who they are.

In America, accountability still seems elusive."

"In the United Kingdom, the machinery of public investigation appears to be functioning as intended.

It’s harder to make that claim with confidence in the US given the politicization of a justice system that has prosecuted President Donald Trump’s opponents and a president who pardoned hundreds of people convicted of crimes linked to the January 6, 2021, riot."

"The Trump DOJ had to be forced into every act of disclosure. And the only person offered legal relief so far is Ghislaine Maxwell, who gave testimony absolving the president of wrongdoing in his dealings with her former companion — and was moved to a more lenient prison to serve her sex crimes sentence."
