"victims put trust in Maurene Comey... one of the few people who convinced them she would take on powerful people in search of justice. and Pam Bondi fired her, on Trump’s personal authority" @emptywheel.bsky.social for love of god read the whole thing. www.emptywheel.net/2025/07/17/p...

Marcy speculates (justifiably I think) that Loomer is "force" behind firing Comey if we learned anything in months since Regime 2's mobsters took over, it's that maga is siloed in egotistical-bastard factions—many of whom HATE each other bag of rats, if you will. www.emptywheel.net/2025/07/17/p...

never expected to speak up for someone with surname "Comey" but 2025 is that type of fucked-up year with mobsters attempting to run their asylum so... yea.

when considering implications of Maurene Comey's shitcanning on victims you should also read Marcy @emptywheel.bsky.social's piece about Donny losing (like bloodflow to those swollen cankles) his ability to shout "look over there!" and distract Beltway press www.emptywheel.net/2025/07/13/j...

Donny's "ability to command and direct attention is his superpower... one that's been failing him as his DOJ and FBI reversed course on past, fevered promises to disclose everything about Epstein scandal" @emptywheel.bsky.social www.emptywheel.net/2025/07/13/j...

important point and something I hadn't considered: Queens Mobster, when it finally sinks in (other than distracting people Donald is really not talented or bright, like in any way) that he's losing ability to shift media attention? the rapist will become even more "desperate despot" than he is now

dumb mobsters always confess to their lil' ops so Marcy @emptywheel.bsky.social's flagging Donny's "ill-conceived" screed is notable if for no other reason that he said Epstein is the "guy who never dies" dollface, how many times did u try and off him? www.emptywheel.net/2025/07/13/j...

important footnote via @emptywheel.bsky.social: either James Dennehy or Maurene Comey could give protected whistleblower statements to @durbin.senate.gov 🎩 @pegoidal.bsky.social bsky.app/profile/gtco...

UPDATE: oh really, Bondi wants a go at Ghislaine Maxwell? we all remember AG* Barr's unnatural "interest" in Epstein so just make sure Maxwell has a water tester, bodyguards and the CCTV footage is backed up in multiple places 🧢 @sonofathomp.bsky.social bsky.app/profile/valu...

you should read/bookmark Marcy @emptywheel.bsky.social's post if for no other reason than the excellent Epstein-Maxwell timeline, including all those "mob-offshoot" events like Barr's botched/clumsy firing of Berman www.emptywheel.net/2025/07/22/t...

always helps my pea brain to boil stuff down so here goes: Donny's associates are spastically (like involuntary leg-muscle spasms) trying to distract/justify/excuse/shake shiny keys and basically nothing is working.

why will this crap get even uglier from here? Queens Mobster—along with "spastic" operatives I mentioned above—lost ability to distract/redirect media (also bc Donny is inextricably and forever linked to pedo pal Epstein obviously) @emptywheel.bsky.social again bsky.app/profile/will...

She is going to be EPSTEINED

there's a good chance for that, but more likely the mobsters will pull shenanigans and get her to do this and that. if they don't come to an agreement? things could get ugly

Bill Barr will get his big ugly hands into it to cover for daddy
