Big kudos to 60 Minutes correspondent Sharyn Alfonsi for blowing the whistle on Bari Weiss, telling her colleagues in an email that Weiss ‘spiked the story’ after ‘the story was screened five times and cleared by both CBS attorneys and Standards and Practices’.

He joked about her body. He discussed her sex tape.

These are his own words.

This is why the Epstein files matter. Patterns of behavior don’t exist in isolation; they’re protected by silence & power.

Survivors deserve truth. The public deserves accountability.

Release the Epstein files now

CBS is planning a series of ideologically diverse, non-partisan town halls treating questions like "How has feminism failed women?", "Why are liberals so smug?", and "What makes poor people so lazy?"

Congresswoman Ilhan Omar's son was pulled over by ICE and forced to prove he is an American.

Two options:

1) ICE deliberately targeted him.

2) ICE is stopping all non-White people without any probable cause and forcing them to prove they are citizens.

Hard to say which option is scarier.

Why the russians fear the Leopard 2. A lone Ukrainian Leopard 2 takes out 2 russian tanks and 6 IFV's BMP-2's, at over 3,000m.
