EXCLUSIVE: There’s an email in the Epstein files with the subject line “Trump” that Todd Blanche won’t unredact — because it exposes the truth about President Trump’s relationship with Epstein.

I have a confession and a plea to folks who are flirting with voting Jill Stein.
When I was a 20 year old college student in 2000, I voted for Ralph Nader instead of Al Gore. I loved the progressive message Nader offered, and Bush and Gore seemed kinda the same to someone who was paying peripheral attention.
I've regretted that vote for my entire adult life.
Ultimately, George Bush won by a margin of 500+ votes in the state of Florida over Gore. And that was the ballgame. Ralph Nader peeled 97,000+ votes away from Gore. If only 600 of those 90,000 had voted for the major party candidate that more aligned with their values, things would have been very different.
When I was in my senior year of college, 9/11 happened. The country and western world rallied around Bush's resolute response to the traumatizing terror attacks. I was in NY at the time, and it was a terrifying moment for the nation.
But the consequences of Bush being in office at that moment were immense.
Bush's disdain for his dad's nemesis, Iraqi President Saddam Hussein, led him to invent a rationale to invade a country that literally had nothing to do with 9/11. End result? He killed hundreds of thousands of Iraqi people, thousands of American troops, and spent over a trillion dollars of taxpayer money in the process.
Beyond the completely immoral and indefensible Iraq War, Bush was a complete disaster as a president. His "No Child Left Behind" effort turned public schools into standardized testing centers. He tripled down on fossil fuels and ignored climate change. His tax cuts for the rich helped contribute to the 2008 economic downturn that led to the Great Recession.
He was a terrible president.
In an alternate reality, Al Gore would have been president in 2001 when terrorists attacked America. Would he have gone into Iraq? Absolutely not. Would he have ignored global warming? 100% no! Gore was perhaps the preeminent proponent of fighting climate change at that time. Would he have passed massive tax cuts for the wealthy? No way.
This is a sliding doors scenario. What would have happened? We can't be sure. But one thing is for sure: those votes for Ralph Nader (in Florida in particular) were EXCEPTIONALLY consequential for the lives of millions around the world. Gore would have offered a more forward-facing, environmentally conscious & peaceful presidency that wasn't so rooted in grievance and privilege.
My point is:
Either Kamala Harris or Donald Trump will win the election. That is a fact. You might feel the need to submit a "protest vote" as I did in 2000.
Just be ready to wear it when Donald Trump wins, strips away reproductive rights from all Americans, implements an economy-destroying tariff, dismantles the entire federal government, eliminates the Department of Education, prosecutes his perceived enemies, and devolves America into chaos.
There are no perfect choices. But rest assured, there are only two.
Trust me - I've been wearing my vote for a quarter century.
Whatever happens this week, VP Kamala Harris has run an impeccable campaign. She hasn’t slept in over 104 days since entering the race. She’s done it all - talked to everyone, gone everywhere, tried her hardest. She’s given us a chance.
It’s our turn now.
@Cathy2NotToday My wife and I applied for a mortgage in the early 70s. The bank we both worked for would not include her earnings. She made more than I.
We couldn’t get the mortgage.
Kamala Harris’ full appearance on Saturday Night Live was hands down the best candidate appearance SNL has ever seen. Absolutely nailed it.
This is the moment—our next president.
Let’s finish this strong and bring it home.
Scrolling through my feed today I see the most remarkable contrast between 2 candidates yet. On the one hand there is the disgusting video of Trump simulating oral sex as well as his remarks about wanting Liz Cheney in front of a firing squad. Then there is @KamalaHarris and her closing ad about people - you, me, everyone - and our dreams for this country. Both demonstate who these candidates truly are and the differences could not be more stark.
It’s time America. It’s time to reject the chaos and division and disgusting behavior. It’s time for real leadership from a new generation. It’s time for Kamala.
Pretty wild that Trump literally did a simulated blow job on a microphone stand last night and no one is questioning whether his brain is scrambled eggs b/c I'm pretty sure some savvy reporters would have looked sideways at Biden doing the same thing 🙄
What are we even talking about here?? When I think about my kids and my family and how they will grow up, the choice is clear to me. VOTE KAMALA HARRIS!!!
