Did Clinton draw a pubescent girl for the birthday book and then sign it?

Also, were they besties?

The new take: "Epstein was a popular rich guy, everyone knew him and wished him well! It doesn't mean they 'knew' him! Nobody knew what he and Ghislane were up to!"

But it doesn't matter. The oligarchs don't pay for their crimes. They don't even get charged. Do you want to see them pay? I hear there's a discount on pitchforks recently seeing as there's nobody to work the fields.

No oppressors ever walked away peacefully at the request of the oppressed. Just sayin'

The good thing about both parties hating progressives is that no one circles the wagons to protect progressives.

Anthony Weiner was immediately persona non grata when his allegations came out.

Progressive perverts get no protection because both parties want them gone, so there's no backlog.

Meanwhile, republicans and centrists alike participated in a culture of protecting reprehensible predators in order to hold on to power that might otherwise be vested in people who give a shit about the poor.

There is some credit to be given in that no one seems to be circling the wagons for clinton now, but he's already served his purpose: 8 years of triangulating with the right.

Wonder how many centrists are sitting in awkward silence and how much of the "fine, lock clinton up too" sentiment is coming from progressives.

This isn't surprising anyone.

Fuckin' great, lock his old ass up too.

Throwback, also, to the Lemmy fake-leftist who was pretending that back in the 1990s him and all his activist friends were super excited for Bill Clinton and all his leftist politics, and lecturing me about how far the Democratic Party has fallen since then. Fuckin' what lol. I was around for it, literally 0 of us were as excited about Bill Clinton and his balanced budget as this guy was pretending that him and all the left were back then.
