The gossip comm is closed and considered merged with the slop comm. I requested a new comm for posting culture/style/entertain type stuff. It’s not inherently a dunk comm. It can be good things or bad things. Read the sticky for more info.
Celebrity news, cultural events, social media trends, entertainment, etc. Even some politician stuff is fine if it is relevant to culture. Streamer stuff is permitted.
See /r/fauxmoi as example. It’s a pop culture subreddit with left-ish political leaning.

I think the real reason that /c/gossip closed is that no moderator wanted to moderate it.


Adelita Grijalva was sworn in on November 12. She was the last voted need for the bill to pass.


The bill calls for the US DOJ to release Epstein Files. The US Congress also has different Epstein documents. The recent 20,000 emails and the Epstein Birthday book were published by the US Congress and not the US DOJ.
The Epstein Estate might also publish documents. Epstein’s brother Mark Epstein gave a press statement today that the GOP would sabotage the US DOJ file release. It is possible that the Epstein Estate publishes more documents if the US DOJ release is blocked or tampered with. The Epstein Estate might be trying to hurt Trump because he killed Jeffrey Epstein.


If you read the full bill. It says that Pam Bondi must also declassify information in the documents and that any information that can’t be declassified must be submitted to the congress for approval.
© Permitted withholdings.—
(1) The Attorney general may withhold or redact the segregable portions of records that—
(A) contain personally identifiable information of victims or victims’ personal and medical files and similar files the disclosure of which would constitute a clearly unwarranted invasion of personal privacy;
(B) depict or contain child sexual abuse materials (CSAM) as defined under 18 U.S.C. 2256 and prohibited under 18 U.S.C. 2252–2252A;
© would jeopardize an active federal investigation or ongoing prosecution, provided that such withholding is narrowly tailored and temporary;

(E) contain information specifically authorized under criteria established by an Executive order to be kept secret in the interest of national defense or foreign policy and are in fact properly classified pursuant to such Executive order.
(2) All redactions must be accompanied by a written justification published in the Federal Register and submitted to Congress.
(3) To the extent that any covered information would otherwise be redacted or withheld as classified information under this section, the Attorney General shall declassify that classified information to the maximum extent possible.
(A) If the Attorney General makes a determination that covered information may not be declassified and made available in a manner that protects the national security of the United States, including methods or sources related to national security, the Attorney General shall release an unclassified summary for each of the redacted or withheld classified information.
(4) All decisions to classify any covered information after July 1, 2025 shall be published in the Federal Register and submitted to Congress, including the date of classification, the identity of the classifying authority, and an unclassified summary of the justification.

Also. The bill only tells the US DOJ to publish the Epstein documents. The US DOJ is not the only source of Epstein documents. The recent emails published were released by the US Congress, not the US DOJ.
Also. The Epstein Estate has also published some documents. They might be publish documents because they think Trump killed Jeffrey Epstein.


While it is likely that the documents might be altered. Another reason that Republicans flipped is because they don’t want to be personally associated with pedophilia. There is some infighting amongst Republicans right now. There was a few votes who originally voted no and then switch votes. The one guy who voted against the anti-pedophile bill will certainly be called a pedophile.
Also some seats in Congress changed after the recent elections.


The MS actually did stand for Microsoft. MSNBC was formed in 1996 as a collaboration between Microsoft and NBC.


I think the details are not clear. North Carolina was a swing state in 2024 election. North Carolina has a 50:50 split on Democrat:Republican. Charlotte is very Democrat-leaning compared to the rest of the state. Trump often says he wants to target “Democrat-run cities”.
North Carolina just recently gerrymandered the Congressional districts for the second time like 2 years. Prior to the gerrymandering there was 7 Democrat and 7 Republican congressional districts. After the gerrymandering, there are 11 Republican districts and 3 Democrat districts.


you can search the documents on this website. I found this link on reddit.


This is definitely fake news. I just pulled up the file in the google drive. The reddit user listed the wrong document number. The reddit post claims that the screenshot was document 025422, but the screenshot is actually document 025414.




The 20,000 document release was released by Republicans. The Democrat release was only 3 emails prior to the 20k release. So if the 20k dropbox/googledrive is being modified, it would be modified by Republicans?
There’s a mirror of all documents here.


I’ve used it a few times and it was decent. I would like for delta-9 to be legal. Increasing restrictions on delta-8 is a step in the wrong direction. It will make delta-9 legalization more difficult.


2 months ago, Gustavo Petro gave a speech at the UN in New York, calling for Nations to form “powerful army” to stop the genocide in Gaza. "We need a powerful army of the countries that do not accept genocide,” “That is why I invite nations of the world and their peoples more than anything, as an integral part of humanity, to bring together weapons and armies.”
After giving his speech, Petro joined a group of Pro-Palestinian protesters outside of the UN building, including Roger Waters of Pink Floyd.
The US responded by revoking his US diplomatic visa. Petro posted to twitter that it did not bother him.

Last month, US treasury placed economic sanctions on Gustavo Petro and accused him of being a “narco-terrorist” for not being complicit with the US attacks on Venezuela.

Some of the boats the the US attacked in the Caribbean Sea may have been Colombian civilian boats.


The third email is sent by Michael Wolff to Jeffrey Epstein in 2015. While the phrase “let him hang himself” caught my eye, I believe it is a metaphor and not literally. The email chain is about Trump’s 2016 Presidential campaign. Michael Wolff is asking Epstein about whether he will clear Trump’s name.


Are you saying that I’m older than you or younger than you? Habbo hotel was a popular game for young people in the mid-2000s. If I was a young person who played the game in the mid-2000s, let’s say that I’m 35 now. Zohran is 34. What is the hexbear age demographic?

Not really sure what to make of this, to be honest. I looked through presidential records and couldn’t find any other “anti-communism week” declaration. I know that “Loyalty Day” has been declared every year since the second Red Scare.
Why did he declare it at the end of the week? Why did he only specify 2025 in the declaration? I can’t find any mainstream news articles explaining the proclamation. Trump didn’t even post about it on truthsocial.
In 2017, Trump proclaimed November 7 to be “National Day for Victims of Communism”. The date was chosen in relation to 1917 Soviet Revolution. Why was it upgraded from 1 day to a whole week?
Nov 7 2017 https://trumpwhitehouse.archives.gov/briefings-statements/national-day-victims-communism/
I don’t see a similar proclamation made by Biden, Obama, or Bush. Ron Desantis has designated November 7 to be “Victims of Communism day” in Florida each year since 2022, but not nationally.


I’m having habbo hotel flashbacks.


This is the official translation provided by DPRK. They own every website with the .kp TLD.
I would think ‘cognition against the enemy’ is referring to their perception of the US military actions in the region. It says that they are upset about the aircraft carrier ‘George Washington’ arriving in the region. Counteraction means that they want to retaliate against the US military drills. DPRK considers the US/ROK/Japan military drills to be practice for an invasion of North Korea, ie provocation.
I was surprised that the 20,000 emails released by the GOP oversight committee had so many mentions of Trump.
The bill says that redactions have to be approved by the Congress. It says that Pam Bondi has to declassify documents if not approved by the Congress. The bill is a law, so if she doesn’t, she is violating the law, whatever that means.
Hypothetically, if there are a lot of redactions. If we consider MAGA incompetence, with Trump appointing a lot of podcasters within his cabinet, I think there is a solid chance that they forget to redact some things.
If the files are excessively redacted, there is still the chance that the documents get released by the Democrat House Oversight committee or by the Epstein Estate. Jeffrey Epstein’s brother (Mark) has been in the news making statements that he believes that Republicans will try to hide Republican involvement. The Epstein Estate also has access to many documents.
