Mother of 10 found guilty of keeping teenage girl as ‘house slave’ for 25 years
What a horrid story. At least there is some sigh of relief with this first sentence.
Since being rescued, the woman is now living with a foster family, attending college and has been on holidays abroad. She has suffered nightmares about her ordeal, and has a constant wish to clean.

Epstein Files Released
Gonna repost some information here I shared in another thread.
They broke the law again. The Epstein Files Transparency Act requires all the files to be released, downloadable and searchable by the end of today. Already failing that, Trump's DOJ also made a statement that they would release "several hundred thousand" documents.
Well, CBS:
New documents span 3,965 files, totaling 3 GB of data
The total number of files across all four new data sets is 3,965, with a total file size of about 3 GB. Nearly all of the files are PDFs, with one video file. Some of the files are individual images, while others are documents with many pages.

some epstein files can be unredacted...The Trump administration is so bloody stupid they just highlighted the text in black in the pdfs, leaving all the text available underneath.
If you happen to be looking for bad redactions in a large set of data files today for some reason, there's an open source tool for that.

"We need to talk seriously about general strikes, about breaking quorum, about exploiting parliamentary procedure to ensure that Republican legislation doesn't get through." (Kat Abughazaleh)
What she says about organising to help poor folx...
Here in this country in the middle east, where things are in full-swing Ramadan, people gather to prepare tables and bring food to feed EVERYONE, every single day. This is not organised by the government, but by every day people. The only thing that brings them together is a belief that it's important. Some do it with no regard for others, but simply because they think that's what god wants them to do, and so on. And I don't subscribe any religion, or wanna fan Islam. But I think it shows what power we have.

Stupidity

I actually thought this was a general reference to the inherent stupidity of racism.
I get your point, but still think this is more of a jab at super racist MAGA people.

More will be released today
So they didn't release all the files, and they didn't make it searchable. That's two really important parts of the Epstein Files Transparency Act. Drag the felon to jail already...
Since I don't see a link here, the new files are at
https://justice.gov/epstein
Aaand they also only released under 4k documents instead of the "several hundred thousand" they said they would be releasing today.

‘Buried at the Trump Golf Course’: Explosive FBI interview unearthed in Epstein files
Reply in thread
Sure, maybe. But they didn't just phone stuff in - they were interviewed.
So, they interviewed this person, but not the guy who claimed he drove Trump -- as well as a victim -- and overheard pedo rape conversations, and described a murder which was consistent with death records?
And in both cases, they don't investigate?
I don't see the "phony fake calls" excuse holding up at all.
[…] local newspaper uncovered death records consistent with details described in the tip.
The allegations made against Trump and Epstein are unverified, and no public record exists that law enforcement investigated or confirmed their authenticity.

They looked at me like a hot piece of french toast when I told the interviewer I enjoyed writing documentation at my last job.
