Trump needs to be impeached today.

NYT: “@RonWyden
The top Democrat on the Senate Finance Committee issued a report calling for an investigation into whether JPMorgan Chase deliberately underreported more than $1 billion in suspicious transactions by Jeffrey Epstein…” Trump dismisses Epstein as “Democratic hoax” while his Treasury hides $1.5B paper trail. Wyden’s probe reveals JPMorgan flagged 4,700 transactions AFTER Epstein died – same bank that financed Trump’s 90s deals. Stonewalling isn’t oversight; it’s complicity.

Speaker Johnson says releasing Epstein files without redactions could pose national security risk.

If you’re saying that releasing the Epstein files poses a national security risk, then you’re admitting that the Epstein files are not, in fact, a hoax.
Trump is never going to allow the Epstein files to be released, because he’s in them, likely a lot, doing horrific things to kids. Opening an investigation is his legal way of protecting himself.
DOJ Deputy Chief Joseph Schnitt was caught on hidden camera saying the government will ‘redact every Republican’ from the Epstein files. He also revealed that Ghislaine Maxwell was moved to a minimum-security prison ‘to keep her mouth shut.’

For context, he’s describing the new plans to steal the next election.
Trump: My pollsters said, ‘sir, if George Washington and Abraham Lincoln came back from the dead and they went for the president, vice president as a combination, you’d be beating them by 25 points.’

They were prosecuted, then pardoned by Trump:
• P.G. Sittenfeld: Convicted of taking a bribe
• Devon Archer: Convicted of defrauding $60M from a tribal entity
• Brian Kelsey: Convicted of illegally funneling ~$100K into his campaign

@donwinslowIn the raid of just 1 of Epstein’s houses here is a PARTIAL list of some of the things recovered. Ask @AGPamBondi @FBIDirectorKash when these will be released:
400+ CDs of images and videos
32+ hard drives totaling more than 15+ TB of storage
26 computers
200 Polaroids
10 USBs
5 Industrial data back up tapes
6 ipads
2 phones

MBS = Mr. Bone Saw

ALL KOCH NETWORK
Dozens of executives RSVP’d for the White House dinner with Mohammed bin Salman.
Expected attendees: Blackstone CEO Stephen Schwarzman, Trump Org. exec and Trump’s son Donald Trump Jr., Apple CEO Tim Cook and Tesla CEO Elon Musk.
Cristiano Ronaldo, Michael Dell and Bill Ackman also RSVP’d

@BMeiselas
If you ever wondered how all those people could remain close to Epstein even after his 2008 conviction, just look at the people who were happy to have dinner with MBS last night. It’s all one big club for the elite and wealthy, and having money outweighs any heinous crimes you may have committed.

BREAKING — MARIST has Democrats up 14 points on the generic ballot.
“This is the first time in more than three years that Democrats have had a notable advantage on the congressional generic ballot question. When last asked in November of 2024, registered voters divided, 48% to 48%. The last time the Democrats had a noteworthy advantage on this question was in June of 2022 when the Democrats were +7 among registered voters.”

JOBS

 A small handful of companies are propping up the U.S. economy. GDP growth is overly reliant on one sector: AI. And the numbers are going up in no small part because these companies keep investing in each other. And many of these deals are already falling flat. Since Oracle announced a $300 billion deal with OpenAI on September 10, its stock has lost $315 in market value.

Musk, worth $470 billion, plans to become a trillionaire by replacing workers with robots.
Bezos, worth $256 billion, plans to replace 600,000 jobs with robots.
Zuckerberg, worth $216 billion, laid off 17,000 workers.
Billionaires aren’t job creators. They’re job destroyers.

The Bureau of Labor Statistics now says it won’t release a full U.S. jobs report for the month of October.

Trump fired the head of the Bureau of Labor Statistics months ago for posting accurate job numbers, just so he could make up his own to fit his narrative.
“If we don’t release the jobs numbers, there are no job losses”
“If we don’t measure food insecurity, no one’s hungry”
“If we delete right-wing violence research, there’s no right-wing violence”
“If we don’t release inflation data, there’s no inflation”

AI

OpenAI’s $500 Billion Valuation Has A 12-Person Auditor Problem

The company building artificial general intelligence is audited by Fontanello, Duffield & Otake … a boutique firm with 12 employees designed for nonprofits. This matters because Michael Burry just exposed the structure: OpenAI reports $3.7 billion in 2024 revenue while Microsoft invests $13 billion, then OpenAI buys Azure compute from Microsoft, which purchases Nvidia chips, inflating both their revenues. IRS filings confirm the same small auditor through 2022 with no public upgrade since. The numbers tell the story. Nvidia’s 2025 earnings show 45% of sales going to three hyperscalers who are simultaneously OpenAI’s investors and customers. When you map the actual money flows, over 85% traces back through these closed loops. Strip away the circular transactions and organic end-user demand appears to be under 1% of the reported ecosystem. 98% of S&P 500 companies use Big Four auditors specifically because boutique firms lack capacity to detect fraud at scale. OpenAI converted to for-profit status in October 2025, bypassing Sarbanes-Oxley requirements entirely. No SEC oversight. No mandatory independent verification of revenue sources. Here’s what breaks: ….

VIDEO Eric Schmidt: How Oligarchs Speak (when they think no one is listening)

@jimstewartson
This bubble makes 2000 look quaint.
As someone who built technology companies for 30 years, these are not technologists or businessmen; these are midwit conmen.
This is total BS being churned out by a combined $6 TRILLION in market valuation—20% of US GDP.
Elon Musk bases his shtick on a sci-fi world of C3POs-for-everyone where robots do everything FOR US—and also make all of us rich somehow? He says everyone wants his robots but provides no reason to believe this. (I do not want one. Ever.) Regardless, TSLA is overvalued by at least 30X. It’s a money black hole.
Jensen Huang thinks computers will do all our thinking FOR US—and because of this he needs a shitload of “AI factories.” He says this is needed because the new software is “generative” and “contextually sensible, and therefore intelligent”—which means absolutely nothing. It’s impossible to know how much NVDA is overvalued because its revenue is based on recycled air—10X at least. It makes chips, not magic beans.
This is nihilistic mass delusion. A vortex of stupid money changing hands in a circle and sucking up everyone else’s money with it. Musical chairs for oligarchs.
To be fair, there are two possibilities:
1) They’re right and we all become Borg—so just give up now.
2) They’re total frauds and this bubble is going to explode.

I use ChatGPT, Claude, & Gemini regularly and none of them have been IRREVOCABLY CONTAMINATED with disinformation the way @grok has been by Musk. I have also never been able to get any of them to prove to me that they were no longer reliable much less admit it (bc they still are)

Majority of corporate Trump ballroom donors represented by 3 lobbying firms
17 out of 26 corporations funding Trump’s ballroom project are clients of Brian Ballard, Jeff Miller, or Reince Priebus’s lobbying firms.
Those same firms helped raise $300 MILLION for the project.
The door is wide open for these lobbyists to seek favors from the Trump admin.

EDUCATION

Trump Administration Announces Dismantling of U.S. Department of Education
The Trump administration announced on Tuesday plans to transfer key functions including civil rights enforcement. Just announced: @usedgov is partnering with four agencies to break up the federal education bureaucracy and move closer to fulfilling the @POTUS’ promise to return education to the states.
Senator Elizabeth Warren warns that President Trump has terminated 50% of employees at the Department of Education.

AMERICAN ADULT LITERACY

NCLB says by 2014 all children must be “proficient” in reading and mathematics.
60 + years later in 2009 1 in 7 Americans is illiterate, federal study finds
2003 Adult Literacy Assessment NCES’ “Literacy in Everyday Life” presents data from the 2003 National Assessment of Adult Literacy, the first assessment of the English literacy of adults (16 and up) in the U.S. since 1992.

Tim Walz @Tim_Walz
The American dream starts in the classroom.
Gutting the Department of Education and defunding our public schools threatens that promise for every child in the nation.

(1933-1942) The Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC) camps were in operation. The educational programs provided jobs for unemployed teachers. Standardized tests and interviews prior to entering CCC camps determined individuals’ educational needs. As a result, enrollees studied a wide range of subjects at a wide range of levels. Options included “elementary subjects” (reading, arithmetic, spelling); “high school subjects” (English, history, mathematics); “college subjects” (accounting, psychology, French); “vocational courses” (forestry, photography, agriculture); “correspondence courses” (diesel engineering, mechanical drawing, civil service); and “lectures” (health and hygiene, first aid, sanitation).
Civilian Conservation Corps [CCC] In June 1933, the ECW decided that MEN in CCC camps could be given the opportunity of vocational training and additional education. Educational programs were developed that varied considerably from camp to camp, both in efficiency and results. More than 90 percent of all enrollees participated in some facet of the educational program. Throughout the CCC, more than 40,000 illiterate men were taught to read and write.

2025 NEW: Ranking Member DeLauro slams Trump’s effort to end public education.
“Americans increasingly cannot afford the basic necessities of everyday life. What is the Trump administration’s focus? Dismantling the Department of Education.”

The CCC did a better job with literacy than the Department of Education which should have been shut down in 1945.

People realized their gov’t jobs were in jeopardy so the department of education mounted a campaign to kill off the CCC and they did. Sadly for America they won the battle – we still have the incompetent department of noneducation.

Mamdani has announced his first policy: Children in New York public schools will now be required to learn Arabic numerals.

This is what it looks like when we chronically underfund education:

Americans are literally the dumbest people alive
The majority of people want to ban Arabic Numerals from the New York School System, according to new poll.
Imagine wanting to ‘ban Arabic numerals’ without realizing you’d have to stop using 0–9. New York schools wouldn’t just lose math… they’d lose clocks, prices, phone numbers, EVERYTHING. This poll doesn’t show public opinion it shows public ignorance.

“Arabic numerals” is a misnomer. 1. The numerals we use today were invented by Indians (of India). 2. The number system was exported by Persians to the Middle East, Eastern Europe, & eventually, the West. 3. And, because Europeans didn’t bother to know the difference between Persians & Arabs, they referred to them as “Arabic numerals.”

The wrestling gal was hired to destroy federal education standards. The Dept of Education was created because America was getting stupid.

Years ago, Carlin laid out why they want to dismantle the department of education. They don’t want a population of critical thinkers, they want obedient workers.

Trump & McMahon are lawlessly trying to abolish the Department of Education & tear down public education in America. They know how unpopular this plan is — that’s why despite Republican majorities in Congress, they’re choosing to do this ILLEGALLY. They’re getting rid of the Department of Education while creating a ‘Department of War’. The problem is politicians who fear a well-educated, secular generation that can spot authoritarian nonsense a mile away. TRUMP wantS to dismantle education because informed citizens won’t buy what HE’S selling. Trump is dismantling the Department of Education because “he loves the uneducated”. However, recently, he said we need H 1-B visas b/c “America needs certain talent”. How will damaging our education system help us develop that talent? Both sides of his mouth are full of shit.
