A place to discuss politics and offer political commentary. Self posts are preferred, but links to current events and news are allowed. Opinion pieces are welcome on a case by case basis, and discussion of and disagreement about issues is encouraged!
The intent is for this community to be an area for open & respectful discussion on current political issues, news & events, and that means we all have a responsibility to be open, honest, and sincere. We place as much emphasis on good content as good behavior, but the latter is more important if we want to ensure this community remains healthy and vibrant.
Content Rules:
- Self posts preferred.
- Opinion pieces and editorials are allowed on a case by case basis.
- No spam or self promotion.
- Do not post grievances about other communities or their moderators.
Commentary Rules
- Don’t be a jerk or do anything to prevent honest discussion.
- Stay on topic.
- Don’t criticize the person, criticize the argument.
- Provide credible sources whenever possible.
- Report bad behavior, please don’t retaliate. Reciprocal bad behavior will reflect poorly on both parties.
- Seek rule enforcement clarification via private message, not in comment threads.
- Abide by Lemmy's terms of service (attacks on other users, privacy, discrimination, etc).
Please try to up/downvote based on contribution to discussion, not on whether you agree or disagree with the commenter.

Meidas Touch said that Ghislain Maxwell has an upcoming appeal and that she has the files as well. She’s apparently threatening to go public with them if Trump doesn’t make a deal with her. If Trump were to release doctored files, that makes a deal with her politically unviable and she has nothing to lose since she’ll likely be in prison for most of if not the rest of her life. The files have also already been submitted to court, so her’s could be verified by outside sources.
That’s essentially the only hope for getting the truth as far as I can tell, but I can’t say I really expect much to be exposed in the end.
I can't figure out why she's still alive.
Dead-man switch of some sort. She probably gave a sealed envelope of evidence to a lawyer to send to the media in the event of her sudden death.
