A 2016 civil lawsuit found in the Epstein files alleges that Trump raped a 13-year-old girl at parties hosted by Jeffrey Epstein in NY. Epstein raped her too.

For anyone wondering why the victim dropped the case…

It may be my imagination, and of course I’m prone to exaggeration…

Day two of superb Scottish records and it’s The Orange Juice, produced by the mighty Dennis Bovell, with a nod to the Underground in the title.

President of Brazil calling for international action against US

First steps should be global boycott- no participation in US World Cup, Olymplics or any other international gathering here.

Bill Clinton: β€œThis is our responsibility.”

β€œWe forced Ukraine to give up nuclear weapons, cruise missiles, and strategic bombers.
