Here’s A BUNCH OF TV News
President BubbaGobbler has spent the last couple of days raging at reporters for asking him about the Epstein Files, which makes him seem very innocent and cool.

She also asked Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman about the 2018 murder of journalist Jamal Khashoggi, and suggested it was unethical for President Corruption’s family to be doing business with Saudi Arabia while he’s in office.

BRAVO, MARY BRUCE.
After chiding Bruce for asking a “horrible,” insubordinate” and “just a terrible question,” Trump chided her, “You’re all psyched up. Somebody psyched you over at ABC and they’re going to psych it. You’re a terrible person and a terrible reporter.”
He later accused ABC of being “one of the perpetrators” of a Democratic hoax over Epstein.
“I think the license should be taken away from ABC because your news is so fake and it’s so wrong, and we have a great commissioner, the chairman, who should look at that.” Trump was referring to his FCC chairman, Brendan Carr.

“Piggy.” Such projection.
This sure feels like the behavior of a man who is cornered and scared. I’m not overwhelmingly optimistic that the Files will be released, and if they are that his name won’t have been scrubbed from them (see below), but he’s not exactly radiating confidence, either.

And, as always, it’s left to women to hold this misogynistic pig accountable.
Speaking of people President Pissy Baby is screaming should be taken off of TV:
I mean, if someone correctly guessed my pin number and SAID IT OUT LOUD ON NATIONAL TELEVISION, I would curse, too. Team Sara Haines.
Jimmy Kimmel’s band has been renamed “The Cletones.”
Nate Bargatze might actually build a theme park? Wait, what?
I don’t know if you’re watching Pluribus — you should be — but this promo for it, featuring some Breaking Bad cameos, is perfect:
The Simpsons killed off another character: R.I.P., Alice Glick.
Porsha Williams was escorted off a Delta flight the other day, and now the FBI is involved.
Congratulations, Johnny Knoxville!

The House will vote on the bill to release the Epstein Files today, and it is expected to pass. But that doesn’t mean the Files will ever see the light of day. The bill will then go to the Senate, where it will either die, be amended, or possibly pass. President Piggy says he will sign it, but that remains to be seen. And even if he does “sign” the bill, he’s already instructed his Department of Justice to investigate the Democrats in the Files, which will give the DoJ cover to not release the files as they will be part of an open investigation. And even if that happens, President Sex Pest has likely had all references to himself and other Republicans scrubbed from the Files, so, you know.

The story of the 17-year-old girl that Matthew Gaetz allegedly exploited has come to light, and it is very disturbing.
A man rushed Ariana Grande at a Wicked premiere event in Singapore, and has been charged with being a “public nuisance.” KEEP YOUR HANDS TO YOURSELVES. DAMN.
Young women are not taking crap from photographers on the red carpet anymore. Good.
Former NBA player Patrick Beverly has been charged with felony assault against a family member.
Jameela Jamil makes an excellent point about that AI actress, “Tilly Norwood”:
“Shame on it,” Jamil said, for “Being a teenage-looking girl who can’t say no to a type of sex scene or to a sexual abuse scene, who can’t advocate for herself, who can’t advocate for more money. It’s marked that it was a young woman, rather than a man that they came out with first and that she looks a particular way. I find the whole thing deeply disturbing.”
A Gallup poll has found that 40% of American women aged 15-44 want to move out of the United States permanently. Gee, why? Can’t imagine.
If you or someone you know has experienced sexual assault, you can call the National Sexual Assault Hotline at 1-800-656-HOPE (4673), which routes the caller to their nearest sexual assault service provider. You can also search for your local center here.
