The Dems just released more details about Trump's rape allegations and the coverup. This should be getting more attention than the Cheesecake Factory thing. Republicans were more offended by the perceived diss to a restaurant than the comparison to Saddam Hussein, or this. And corporate media outlets still mostly want to play ball with that. At least you can be sure that the nation's bridge trolls are out there putting the real headlines on bridges. https://time.com/article/2026/10/26/house-democrats-unveil-new-details-from-trump-accuser/ #Trump #Epstein

I am actually missing a bridge protest right now where I guarantee you they're flying a huge banner about Trump and Epstein. Well, I just found out I get my car back tomorrow-- God bless this mechanic!-- so I will be back in the saddle for another event tomorrow evening.

@MaryAustinBooks@mstdn.social No, they weren't; the restaurant is just a perfect sea lion derailleur. "Yes I understand you were speaking metaphorically* and I still demand you satisfy my feelings of feigned umbrage over a slight which never happened to an organization I have no connection to!" is an ideal response when you have no actual argument for the factual allegations which are the real topic of the conversation. * unlike every other metaphor, I am pretending to comprehend this one

@MaryAustinBooks@mstdn.social The people who care about this are not surprised. The people who can do something about this don't care. I really hope that changes in the next few weeks.
