Ok I’m at EWR waiting to fly to ORD. All day.
Incoming plane landed 20 mins ago.
The PILOT 🧑✈️ of our flight just got on the speaker of the terminal to us sitting:
“Folks it’s going to be 45 min taxi due to one air traffic controller and it will be a bumpy ride” he’s based in Chicago.

The important thing is not whether the Trump performing sexual favors for Bill Clinton thing is true. The important thing is that we all pretend it’s true, and that someone asks Trump about it every day.

Fox News should be understood as the Murdochs broadcasting for an audience of one man, who is descending into dementia, and is increasingly unable to discern reality from fiction. The Murdochs wanted Trump to invade Portland, so they pulled on his strings, and he did it.

This story is bonkers. A Pulte ally shared confidential Fannie Mae data with people at Freddie Mac and the people who flagged her behavior were fired.
"Emails reviewed by The Associated Press show that Fannie Mae executives were unnerved about what one called the 'very problematic' disclosure of data by Lauren Smith, the company’s head of marketing, who was acting on Pulte’s behalf." apnews.com/article/fann...
Top Fannie Mae officials ousted after sounding alarm on sharing confidential housing data
A confidant of Bill Pulte, the Trump administration’s top housing regulator, provided confidential mortgage pricing data from Fannie Mae to a principal competitor.

Hey y'all, just a reminder that genocide, pedo rings, atrocity propaganda, coup attempts, bombing boats, insider trading, elaborate heists, massive wealth transfers, and all that jazz are NOT politics. This is organized crime and the people responsible are very dangerous.

"On the two September nights that Fox said the neighbor’s confrontation happened, @propublica.org's review found no videos of violent clashes posted on social media, and federal authorities announced no arrests."
NEW: ProPublica examined months of Fox News’ coverage and reviewed over 700 videos posted on social media.
The network used five-year-old footage, mislabeled other dates and implied footage from elsewhere was in Portland.

Epstein was obviously the story of the day but it’s wild that we got confirmation the CIA was engaged in biological warfare in Afghanistan for at least a decade
Inside the CIA’s secret mission to sabotage Afghanistan’s opium
In a decade-long operation, the CIA modified poppy seeds and dropped them by the billions from aircraft over Afghanistan in an attempt to weaken the potency of the country’s opium crop.

To recap: Jeffrey Epstein offered a NY Times reporter photos taken in Epstein's kitchen of Donald Trump and girls in bikinis *and* implored the NYT reporter to put this information in the public discourse in 2015
