I find it hard to believe Pam Bondi would know who the Earl of Sandwich was. Historical facts are not a MAGA specialty. Heck, plain facts are not a MAGA specialty.

Cole Slaw could be a relief pitcher she

"accidentally" followed into the shower after a Washington Nationals baseball game.....

I don't want to ruin the magic, but I heard this piece wasn't actually written by Pam Bondi. No, Jeff has once again tasked Jason Fuzetti to ghostwrite!

Cole Slaw is definitely a hockey player. Lots of young hockey players with that name.

This can't be Pam Bondi because the "Whoops" title implies a mistake and even an apology. This is obviously untenable in Trumpland. But if you read closely, you realize there is no apology so maybe... But then the fact that she admits to a mistake, and says "my bad" proves this must be a hoax. Either that, or she will be fired within days for violating the "No Mistakes, No Apology" prime directive.

There are a lot of photos over many years of Donald Trump with Jeffrey Epstein. Good friends.

I do think it’s still weird that we don’t know who frequented the island and how often. I’ll venture a guess that Donald took a turn. That’s why the list suddenly didn’t materialize.

Donald Trump didn't take a turn, he was both boring to Epstein (who, again, liked scientists, and had a real fetish for switching from hardcore science to hardcore porn in the middle of conversations, and watching people goggle at him) and not very marketable (in terms of selling to Epstein's real clients).

On the other hand, there's a country that Donald Trump likes a lot. Said country is actually kinda weirded out that Donald Trump likes them that much, as they don't have blackmail material on him.

Trump booted Epstein out of Maralago for getting fresh with one of his employees. After that, Trump ceased having any contact with the guy (and this was over twenty years ago, back when Trump would have been uninteresting to Epstein, who liked scientists and had "clients" like Bill Clinton).

There's a saying on the internet: "if you don't know what you're paying for this service, you're the product."

Politicians like Bill Clinton/King Charles/etc. certainly didn't know what they were paying for underage whores.

The claim that Trump kicked Epstien out for hitting on someone keeps getting repeated, but he wasn't banned until shortly before his 2008 conviction for sex trafficking. But saying he was banned to avoid bad press doesn't sound as morally upstanding...

Who expects morally upstanding from the guy who makes pizza hut commercials, lets people make jokes about him ejaculating when he says "you're fired", and goes onstage for WWF?

The guy's a clown -- his shtick is being Stephen Colbert 2.0 (he does have an actual baseline personality, beyond "troll").

Chicken panini = c. p. = child porn. Connect the dots! We're through the looking glass here, people.

Not only that, but “panini” is the plural of “panino.” It’s everywhere, people!1!

No Pol Pot’s Pizza Palace but there is a Mao’s Kitchen near me. Their Dan Dan Noodles are pretty good (hey that could be a name).

Dan Dan Noodles are the best in every Chinese Restaurant. Where was this back in the 90’s when I ate take out every night?

“Just like back in 2013, when I was Florida AG and the Trump Foundation gave my PAC a $25,000 donation and I dropped an investigation into Trump University. I saw “university” and “foundation” and just thought it was to fund scholarships for outstanding Florida high schoolers. Guess I’m the Mayor of Duh-What-Was-I-Thinking Town!”
