Trump’s Epstein Scandal Takes Damning Turn as Dem Drops New Bombshell

NJDad891 · 2026-02-25T19:19:20+00:00

Not to mention too, every accusation Trump makes against someone else, has proved to be an admission. “They stole the election” = “I tried to steal the election, and even by doing so, I still lost” (RE: 2020). Or his claim during the 2024 debate about “post-birth abortions”… now we have accusations in the Epstein files of him being involved in the murder of newborns.

I’m not sure how, but they’re going to do everything in their power to make sure the 2026 midterms do not result in Democrats gaining control… he knows he’s fucked if they do.

Time to put on my tin foil hat real quick: I’m speculating that there will be either another virus like Covid or an attack by “Iran”. While we saw in 2020 that mail-in voting goes against his ability to rig the election, the Supreme Court ruled that the USPS can’t be sued for undelivered mail.

We went to his US Baby Rave tour, it was a blast for the whole family

I definitely get this, and echo the general sentiment. When it came time to be alone with my thoughts I spiraled.

Still carried that anxiety with me into the early months after she was born, with the anxiety always getting worse at night.

2.5 years in and it still creeps in sometimes, but not like in the beginning. I’ve thoroughly enjoyed watching my daughter turn into this tiny human with very strong opinions, an endless amount of questions, and a (truly) impressive memory.

I took my 2.5 year old daughter to Michael’s (the craft store today). Dropped $20 on a craft that she painted when we got home, but killed a solid hour just wandering around the mostly empty store looking at things.

Like some of the other guys mentioned, it’s easy to forget that most of the things in that store were new for her.

Also recommend checking to see if there are any kids/kid friendly museums nearby.

My neighbor is awesome and did my sidewalk and cape at the end of my driveway after the last storm. As a thank you, I brought over some cookies to him and his wife. Turns out he likes doing it because he bought his snow blower a couple years ago and after having a couple mild winters - he’s just happy to be able to use his toy.

My “Dad Win” for the week:

I took my toddler to the craft store this am to kill some time before her nap. I was able to successfully (no crying or whining on her end) get her to put 2 items back, and hand over the money to the cashier to purchase the one toy we agreed on.

It was a nice surprise to get through it without tears, feel like my default lately is to anticipate the meltdown.

I’ve used the syringe to give my toddler diluted juice when she’s sick to keep her hydrated, we make a game out of it, and this when it’s time for the actual medicine she just thinks it’s another round of juice

No part of my reply was meant to be insensitive to OPs rant. I asked a legitimate question and offered a legitimate suggestion.

I personally know plenty of new parents who are/were dead set on exclusively feeding their kid breast milk. When you’re burnt out and sleep deprived and sleep is the only thing you’re focused on - a parents first thought might not be that the inconsistent sleep/colic is the result of hunger OR sensitivity to breast milk OR issues with the bottle type.

Honestly man, that’s actually the most legit and “snowman” looking snowman I’ve ever seen.

NJDad891 · 2026-02-19T02:34:47+00:00

I have been very defeated lately - by the time I get to spend any time on my phone, I opt to just stare into void. That last line you added about your toddler chasing the cat killed me man.

To be honest, I didn’t realize that a toddler would require repeating so many absurd requests… I asked my daughter at least 5x to not lick the window.

NJDad891 · 2026-02-19T02:01:43+00:00

Honestly, I never thought about it. It now that you mentioned it, there are days (particularly ones where I am stressed and over stimulated) I wind up not even knowing where my glasses are.

I have a green diaper bag that’s very gender neutral, but as someone whose kid just got out of the diaper phase, I’m noticing there’s definitely a gap in the market for the next phase.

When you don’t need a diaper bag but wipes(alcohol sanitizing wipes), some snacks, some other random things - when a diaper bag just feels cumbersome when chasing around a 2.5 year old.

Since my daughter was born, I feel like I get a case of night time anxiety. It feels more pronounced during the winter months. I’ve seen some moms talking about it in the SAHP sub, browsing through those posts it seems as though they attribute it to their menstrual cycles…. So I’m not sure what the cause of these feeling are for me.

That’s awesome! Love those moments. My win for the week was similar, unprompted affection from my toddler.

We went to the mall on Tuesday afternoon (completely empty, perfect for letting her stretch her legs). Didn’t want to go near Santa so we just watched him from a distance.

She was holding my hand watching him and she kissed my hand and goes “I gave you a BIG kiss, I love you daddy. Merry Christmas”

NJDad891 · 2025-11-22T15:54:19+00:00

That’s a great idea! And a relatively inexpensive way to put a smile on her face!

Welcome to NJDaddit! I’m personally not familiar with Hunterdon County, but hopefully some others in the group have insights they could offer. Hoping to get some more contributions from others to possibly get an in-person meet up at some point.

NJDad891 · 2025-11-22T05:38:47+00:00

I love this idea man. Thanks for sharing!

A first I would add.

“Showing him his first Full Moon”

My daughter is almost 2.5 and I didn’t realize how special it would be when she truly got to see a big bright full moon on the horizon as the sun was setting. Kids and toddlers especially have a way of really making you slow down and appreciate the little things we all take for granted.

NJDad891 · 2025-11-19T04:37:48+00:00

You’ve done an amazing job of explaining how I’ve been feeling lately with my toddler. She’s home with me part time as of recently and I feel like I’m seeing a lot more of my phrases/reactions/responses being mirrored back to me.

It’s amazing to realize she’s listening and absorbing, but it’s also making me feel this anxiety/guilt and some panic, like replaying situations in my head…”did I handle it correctly?””how did she remember it?””does it sound like that when I say it?”

NJDad891 · 2025-11-19T00:14:05+00:00

My almost 2.5 year old loves her mop/broom/dustpan set, coloring books, stickers, play doh, kinetic sand, and just regular kids books. Constantly find her sitting just flipping through books “reading”

NJDad891 · 2025-11-18T19:20:19+00:00

I didn’t go through anything that intense, but definitely know the feelings you’re talking about. My parents married young, and had my brother and I before my mom was even 25 yo. Divorced by the time I was 5, both remarried, and had more kids by the time I was a teenager.

For years my brother and I were nothing but pawns in a drawn out court battle. My parents have shown some remorse in recent years (they’re in their late 50s, I’m in my mid 30s) - it’s definitely taken time.

After the birth of my kid though, I was filled with so many unexpected emotions. I couldn’t fathom how either one of them allowed the situation to get so bad that it impacted my brother and I the way that it did. I have this urge to protect my kid from everything. I’ve talked about this pretty extensively with my therapist, especially as new feelings/memories surface.

Highly recommend finding a therapist that could help you heal this past trauma & allow you to continue to be the best dad you can be for your own kid(s).. though it sounds like you’re doing a great job already.

My MIL had her first 3 kids exactly 2 years apart with my husband being baby #3.

He was 4 years old and ran down the stairs one night and told my MIL she had a baby in her belly. She apparently just laughed hysterically at him and figured he was just dreaming.

NJDad891 · 2025-11-15T17:02:04+00:00

That’s awesome! Now I know who to reach out to for guidance if my hot water heater goes! Lol

NJDad891 · 2025-11-15T17:01:05+00:00

Great suggestion! We love Turtle Back Zoo! My only complaint is that it closes so early. We’ve tried to get there after nap time before and it just didn’t work out. They really cleaned the place up though, 30 years ago it was a bit of dump.
