quickymart: I don't know how common this is, but I've never heard of it? And I have a fair few relatives over 70.

I've noticed American medical practice sometimes have different or various terms for condition names we are used to. Imo they have more practice specialization so it probably makes sense there are more diagnoses in that context. Prescribing practice for similar conditions also tends to have more variety. It might be something you already know by another name.

quickymart: While I expected things to (eventually) go south between two of the world's biggest narcissists, I didn't think it would be that quick.

As said by another billionaire standing with Trump on inauguration day Mark Zuckerberg, co-founder and CEO of Facebook (now Meta).

“Move fast and break things. Unless you are breaking stuff, you are not moving fast enough.”

Other topic, remember fellow tech bro Mark Zuckerberg started Facebook while he was a student at Harvard.

He pulled photos from Harvard’s student directories without permission. Let users compare two students’ photos and vote on who was hotter.

It was shut down by Harvard within days.

He faced disciplinary action but was not expelled.

This journalist Nick Bryant obtained and published Epstein's diary in 2015 starting this whole thing off to a large degree. No one else at the time would publish it. The interview is an eye opening review of Epstein's activities and the people involved:

Department of Justice, DOJ, sues Washington state over law requiring clergy to report possible child abuse: MSNBC

he Trump administration is suing the state of Washington over a law meant to curb child abuse.

Earlier this year, the state passed a law requiring clergy members of various faiths to report suspicions of child abuse. The Catholic archdiocese of Seattle sued over the law, claiming that it could force priests to reveal information learned in confession.

Now, despite the fact the law doesn’t specifically target Catholics and has the support of the governor, who is Catholic, the Trump administration is attacking the law as “anti-Catholic.” The Justice Department’s Civil Rights Division, led by right-wing lawyer Harmeet Dhillon, is moving to intervene in the lawsuit, arguing that requiring Catholic priests to report suspicions of child abuse — in the same way other clergy members would be required to do in Washington — is unfair to Catholics.

In its filing, the DOJ claims the law, set to go into effect in July, “deprives Catholic priests of their fundamental right to freely exercise their religious beliefs, as guaranteed under the First Amendment.” The filing states that because “punishment for directly violating the sacramental seal of Confession is excommunication ... a more direct burden on the exercise of religion would be difficult to imagine.” (The local archbishop has already threatened to excommunicate any priest who follows the law and violates the confessional.)

The bill’s sponsor, Democratic state Sen. Noel Frame, said she was motivated to create the bill following reports that Jehovah’s Witnesses covered up child sexual abuse for years. Multiple states also have similar laws that require Catholic priests to report child abuse claims received in confession.

The DOJ lawsuit is the latest of several moves by the Trump administration that stand to harm efforts to combat child abuse.

Biden and Kamala would have released Epstein files if real argument:
If you believe they are woke and follow process,
you expect they go for what would be seen as dirty tricks ?

It would have been seen as self-serving, even invented to kneecap an opponent unfairly.
As we see there was a lot already in public domain being ignored anyway.
Risk Nuclear backlash against Biden and Kamala, opposition rallying to cause and even more delusional.

Court cases were already in train if courts moved faster and more decisively.
What's the chance that Trump would randomly draw a partisan judge and many other things?
Voting public ignoring a civil case against Trump and everything else bought out, who knew.

Anyways...

Association is not a strong court case.
As ex prosecutor Kamala probably knows this well.
Pressure on victims with Trump and powerful people, MAGA, Evangelical, TechBros.
Seen with PeeDidHe, other celebrity cases, not that easy, victims on trial as well.

Biden was known for working angles with opposition, wokely not a scorched earther.
He did avoid a Government shutdown, which Trump was strongly pushing GOP to do.

Kamala had exceptional case as the sane choice, but did not have Elon's money and fanbase.

Would steady boring process driven administration, even including some Republicans in cabinet,
with lower deficit been that bad compared to the non stop crazy we have?

I know, I know, for top 1% in their gated community, private island, yacht and jet lifestyle.

Trump biographer Michael Wolff has mentioned this potential smoking gun on several occasions:

Economic Times: Veteran journalist and author Michael Wolff has claimed that Jeffrey Epstein once showed him Polaroid photos of Donald Trump with topless young girls—and that the FBI may now have those images in its possession. Wolff said he vividly remembered three of the photographs: “In two of them, topless girls are sitting on Trump’s lap. In another,

The FBI seized the contents of a closet sized safe from Epstein's New York city mansion containing harddrives and numerous media.

Yikes. Mind you, now the orange buffoon's running the show, I imagine all that evidence will mysteriously "disappear" from the FBI's headquarters, never to be found ever again 🙄

https://edition.cnn.com/2025/07/18/media/colbert-cbs-late-show-cancel-paramount-trump

Apparently cancelling Stephen Colbert's show is about "finances" but I understand that the company that makes his show wants to merge with another, and because Colbert says "mean" things about the orange buffoon (including speaking of the settlement they paid him due to some interview with Harris which he didn't like), of course if they don't cancel his show, the merger won't go ahead, so...

Or maybe I'm connecting the wrong dots here.

In 2018, The Washington Post broke a story about Trump's habit of tearing up papers, even documents that were required by law to be preserved.

They interviewed Solomon Lartey, a former records management analyst. He and his colleagues would literally sift through piles of torn paper in the White House and piece them back together with clear tape.

“We got scotch tape, the clear kind... You had to piece together a document like a jigsaw puzzle. Sometimes the president would rip them up in tiny pieces.”

MAGA world leaps to Trump’s defense over alleged Epstein letter: Politico

President Donald Trump’s allies rushed to dismiss a report that he sent a salacious birthday letter to accused sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein.

The Wall Street Journal reported Thursday that Epstein’s co-conspirator, Ghislaine Maxwell, collected letters from Trump and dozens of other people in 2003 — a revelation that came amid intense new interest in the case.

Trump’s letter, which the paper said was reviewed as part of the criminal investigation of Epstein, bears his signature and “contains several lines of typewritten text framed by the outline of a naked woman, which appears to be hand-drawn with a heavy marker,” according to the Journal article.

“Happy Birthday — and may every day be another wonderful secret,” the letter reads.

Trump raged at the Journal for publishing the story, calling it “false, malicious, and defamatory” and vowing in a post on Truth Social to sue the publication and its owner, Rupert Murdoch’s News Corp.

Trump said in a rebuttal to the newspaper, vehemently denying having anything to do with the card “I never wrote a picture in my life”.

In a Truth Social tirade late Thursday, the president declared, “I don’t draw pictures.”.
