5 d. ago Don’t dignify Trump with talk of a ‘new world order’ – there’s nothing new or ordered about this chaos | Aditya Chakrabortty

Nothing he says can be taken at face value; everything should be fed into a polygraph. Those of scrupulous courtesy can wrap it up in red ribbon, or uncork that aphorism about how the man must be taken seriously but never literally.

From real-estate deals to Trump University, all that this guy swears is solid gold soon settles into so much bullshit.Aditya Chakrabortty is a Guardian columnist Continue reading...

1 week ago Epstein disclosures raise key question: why wasn’t he stopped earlier?

New documents reveal numerous missed opportunities as experts and victims condemn US authorities’ failuresOver the course of two decades, Jeffrey Epstein repeatedly appeared on law enforcement’s radar for sexual misconduct involving teen girls and young women. And over this same period of time, Epstein avoided serious and meaningful punishment for his crimes.The US justice department’s recent disclosure of long-secret investigative files related to Epstein has once again raised the question of why he wasn’t interdicted sooner, despite numerous reports of misconduct.

Released documents detail the assembly line-like process with which Jeffrey Epstein procured underage victimsBy the mid-2000s, Jeffrey Epstein’s sexual abuse of teen girls was routine.
