Pam Bondi has to be hands down one of the worst at testifying in front of congress in history. Just quantifiably embarrassing shit.

Imagine if Gallup had just suddenly and "coincidentally" decided to stop collecting presidential approval data when Biden hit his polling lows.

Think about how thoroughly entwined Epstein was with prestige academic institutions, how there was a very good chance your professor or dean was like one hop away at most from someone constantly chatting with him.

Like, Epstein literally helped shape academia into his image, over decades.
He was personally chatting up a storm with them, giving them personal and professional advice.
He basically *was* the pipeline problem, we have the fucking emails right there to prove it.

I personally think it's bad that every friend I have in a marginalized group is up-to-the-minute informed on which criminals belong to his, her, or their intersection and can accurately and immediately predict the ways the association will be used to harm them

palestinian journalist posting on twitter that his bluesky account was immediately taken down purely because he was in gaza. all palestinian accounts are assumed to be spam.

BlueSky is one of the worst platforms I have ever dealt with. Within seconds of creating a second account, after my first one was shut down just two days after it was created, my account was closed again. This happened despite the fact that I hadn’t posted anything or followed anyone. I was only in the process of adding a profile photo, yet I received an email claiming that my account was “spam” and that it was “causing harm.” What kind of logic is this?
The painful truth is that the account was shut down the moment it became clear it was created from inside Gaza. It seems we are no longer allowed to write or speak about what is happening to us here. They are not afraid of content itself, but of our voices and the reality we carry with us.
Millions are spent to silence these voices and to erase the truth. I am exhausted by this platform and by how our photos and videos, which document real suffering, are treated as “violations of community standards,” as if pain itself has become a crime.
What is happening is not simple moderation or policy enforcement. It is an attempt to erase our existence and bury the truth. And honestly, this is shameful and unbearably painful.
[the original poster has included two screenshots showing the email from bluesky admin informing him that his account has been taken down for being 'spammy, inauthentic or disruptive to users'. it's the standard boilerplate you get when they take moderation action.]

One thing we saw in 2025 was that the wealthiest enclaves (Upper East Side, rich small towns in NJ) are the only places that moved to the right politically, so there may be an elite bubble forming like during the 2016 election
New Gallup figures in these charts. Well, so much for that emerging Republican majority people were writing about in November 2024. Was evidently a mass overreaction to Trump's win and failure to acknowledge softness of support, and thermostatic politics www.gelliottmorris.com/p/trumps-win...

Part of the reason why the fatality figures you've heard are almost certainly an undercount.
Because sometimes the bodies are buried under tonnes of rubble nobody can remove or... this.

"Experts and witnesses attributed this phenomenon to Israel’s systematic use of internationally prohibited thermal and thermobaric weapons, often referred to as vacuum or aerosol bombs, capable of generating temperatures exceeding 3,500 degrees Celsius [6,332 degrees Fahrenheit]."

watching hundreds of democrats on here SUDDENLY shocked by the thermobaric bombs dropped in Gaza, things that Palestinians have told us were happening for 2 YEARS,
and immediately use that shock to blame people for “not voting for Harris“ because this “wouldn’t have happened under her”
