Did Sarah and Andrew care about the Mental Health of Andrew's victims? (handed to him by Epstein)

Sorry, but I cannot find a single ounce of sympathy for either of them.

I take on average 10,000 stills and a half hour of video every week. Most I'll never think about again. This I'll hold onto until I grow old. 4 hours ago.

Zero edits. No recoloring. No cropping. Nothing. Just straight up reality. 🦑

"States don’t have to grant corporations the power to spend in politics. In fact, they could decide not to give corporations that power."

Great article on getting money out of politics in the US
We can do away with it without a new Supreme Court. Nor do we need a constitutional amendment. There’s a far simpler way to get rid of Citizens United. Let me explain. https://robertreich.substack.com/p/how-to-get-rid-of-citizens-united

CNBC: My understanding is the White House said that China was gonna buy 12 million tons of soybeans from the US by January. That's approaching and they've only purchased 332,000. China has not confirmed that pledge.

"The Attorney General of the United States has set a new low for this committee," Whitehouse said.

Shouldn't doing what Pam Bondi is accusing James Comey of doing be a scandal that would make her have to resign? In her case it's is easily proven that she lied to the committee.

It would be interesting to know what #Cdn #Indigenous stakeholders think of the Land Acknowledgements that occur before every government and institutional meeting - especially in places like #Ottawa where there is so much unceded land.
Should the recitals end ?

President Zelenskyy is thanking again other leaders for their support. How about we all thank him and all Ukrainians. They are fighting Putin and keeping us safe. If Putin wins we all lose and Europe is finished.

Thank you President Zelenskyy and all Ukrainians 🇺🇦🙏

If there was ever a doubt in the US administration about Rusdian aggression against Ukraine, then watch tonight's 60 Minutes, "The Bus on Route 62"

It's a Russian genocide against Ukraine

Vladimir Putin is popping champagne corks. His hand puppet in Washington has left the United States alone, weakened and hated on the world stage.

Most average working Americans abide by laws and norms. Most are kind and decent. But there is growing rot at the top of our system. And its stench can no longer be ignored. https://robertreich.substack.com/p/sunday-thought-732

1) Start the worst European war since 1945 and commit every imaginable war crime
2) Decide how you want to be rewarded for your aggression
3) Leak the list of your desiderata to the US press
4) Wait for the US president to enforce your wish list on your victim.
