Reminder that in June, 2016, a suit (w/witnesses) was filed against Trump re: his repeated raping of a 13 year-old child at an Epstein party.
(She wasn't a "teen," in anything but the most technical of senses. She was a 7th, maybe an 8th grader.)
We've known he was a child rapist THIS WHOLE TIME.

Everytime people try to tell me AI writing is just like human writing...no. It's avuncular salesman Skeletor, delivered in a yes sweetie tone w/a side of passive aggression, bc it has trained in all the most annoying places, AND eaten literature, so we also get ill-deployed dashes of Ripley.

So now the formerly honorable US Navy has been turned into pirates? Who in the chain of command accepted this illegal order?
Trump: "It's been an interesting day from the standpoint of news. As you probably know, we've just seized a tanker on the coast of Venezuela. Largest one ever seized actually. And other things are happening."

Did Piggy give FIFA an endowment for the prizes? I guess no one has told him that the prize isn't the medal, it's the money the winners get. Someone should tell him; he'll sue FIFA to oblivion for it.

The bigger change is presentation, historically, these emails were visually chaotic: sudden colour changes, ALL CAPS, screenshots pasted at random. Classic signs of disordered thinking. Now they’re neat, structured, and grammatically consistent. The delusion hasn't changed, but the formatting has.

Oy! This is terrifying.
After a bird flu outbreak tore through Midwestern barns, killing millions of chickens and spiking egg prices, the federal government didn’t investigate if the virus was airborne.
So ProPublica did.
