Thursday Cartoons: Let all the poisons that lurk in the mud hatch out.

Well, as the title of this post says:

Let all the poisons that lurk in the mud hatch out.

This is a quote from I, Claudius, by Robert Graves, I, Claudius

That is exactly how I feel about all this Epstein shit.

First…from last night:

Now on to the big deal…

Below are some of the emails you can read for yourself. But the real place to delve into deeper is the source…

Which you can find here:

The House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform released an additional 20,000 pages of documents received from the estate of Jeffrey Epstein. The documents can be found here.oversight.house.gov/release/over…

That is Ken Star singing an email to Epstein with the word “Hugs”…Just remember:

Jeffrey Epstein claims he gave Russians insight into Trump

My takeaway from every new Epstein revelation is that some powerful people victimized many powerless young women, many more knew, some actively enabled it–and we're still being told that MeToo and accountability for sexual violence have gone too far

NEW: A week before Donald Trump surged past Hillary Clinton to win the presidency, author Michael Wolff approached Jeffrey Epstein with a proposal to "finish" Trump's candidacy."Interested?" Wolff wrote.Epstein, apparently, declined. w/ @eorden.bsky.social http://www.politico.com/news/2025/11…

I want to also state that it was Wolff who suggested blackmail to Epstein:

Am I wrong or is Michael Wolff advising Epstein to blackmail Trump?

Now cartoons via Cagle:

This Epstein scandal is a nightmarish Joe R. Landale story come to life, at the highest levels of world power.I have zero inside knowledge but I would not be at all surprised to learn there’s outright murder involved in this hellish mess.

Just a side note:

Just in case you all listen to Spotify.

Be safe today, and this is totally disgusting.

One analytical model shows that, as of November 5th, the dismantling of U.S.A.I.D. has already caused the deaths of 600,000 people, two-thirds of them children. https://newyorkermag.visitlink.me/jUzNSc

    Especially for victims of childhood sexual assault, this is incredibly difficult, yet it needs to be fully exposed. It is very triggering. Every night, I suffer from repeated nightmares. I’m sick to my stomach all day. I want to run out into traffic screaming or maybe out into a cornfield somewhere, screaming. Screaming until I can’t scream anymore and make all the memories go away. But I have to remind myself this isn’t about me, it’s about something so much bigger. I want justice for victims. If such justice is possible. I want the perpetrators punished and their enablers as well. I want them all to go to hell. Literally.

    Sorry if this doesn’t make sense. The world no longer makes sense to me. I feel so tired.

    I guess we know what’s replacing the Bureau of Labor Statistics and the Fed Beige Book.

    They’ve laid off so many people that the government is now getting its economic data from DoorDash.

    A small Journey plane that departed Phoenix, AZ yesterday with stops in Puerto Rico and Senegal (likely for fuel) has just landed in Accra, Ghana. This is potentially the 5th flight this year in which non-Ghanaians are transferred to the country.
