I don't mean to seem alarmed, but it appears Google's book search function is, just...gone.
In a sane country it would be a huge deal, front page news, that a privately owned utility that millions researches, from journalists to scholars, rely on every day to advance knowledge can just disappear.

happening this morning in Minneapolis -- ICE agents drawing guns on observers. I reiterate again that it is only a matter of time before DHS kills more innocent people in Minnesota. Congress needs to shut this shit down right now.

Q: Do you plan on tearing the Kennedy Center down and how much will all of the renovations cost?
TRUMP: Probably around $200 million. I'm not ripping it down. I'll be using the steel. So we're using the structure. We're using some of the marble.

Former housekeeper told PBPD Epstein would have "two massages a day."
You know, folks, I did mass wartime rape cases as a part of my human rights work, and the scale of this is starting to feel quite comparable.

This shit is really hard to read. Girls crying hysterically during interviews as they tell PBPD that Epstein had molested them over and over and over again.
