I agree. Either he didn't disclose it to his editors either and this is a colossal violation of conflict-of-interest rules, or he did, in which case someone has a monumental amount of explaining to do.
David Brooks, who wrote in the NYT last month, "The Epstein Story? Count Me Out" is... in the latest Epstein photo dump published by @oversightdemocrats.house.gov.

He should absolutely be fired by NYT for this. Major conflict of interest that he didn't disclose.

This is incredible news. Today, Virginia officials will unveil a statue of Barbara Johns at the Capitol to replace one of Confederate General Robert E. Lee that had stood for more than a century. www.washingtonpost.com/dc-md-va/202...
Statue of Black teen who fought segregation replaces Robert E. Lee at U.S. Capitol
Barbara Rose Johns was only 16 when she led a walkout in 1951 to protest horrendous conditions at her segregated high school for Black students in rural Farmville, Virginia.

He knows he is dying. He knows he is hated. He knows the clock is running out on doing anything about the latter before the former happens. And where, in most people, this would trigger a sense of humility and grace, all he can feel is an increasingly panicked delirium.
This feels qualitatively different than his usual rants. This is morbid behavior in the strictest medical sense of the term.

WOW. @haleaziz.bsky.social with a new scoop: ICE now gets a running list of every person who is going to be taking a domestic flight inside the United States from the TSA and runs it through their database looking for targets. This explains the Babson College student's arrest.

Now that an administration that has broken the "willing to shamelessly and repeatedly lie to the federal courts" barrier, I don't see how the courts as an institution recover* short of severe, career-ending sanctions for this sort of behavior.

Yeah this has def been an evolution for me as well “markets” and “regulations” are just dumb things to have strongly held views about in the platonic abstract! They’re both social tools, the actual normatively substantive question is the outcomes they produce.
again, baby samantha absolutely thought that policy worked this way. "social problem? try regulation!" grown up samantha is living in the wreckage nimby regulations made of our cities and has different opinions.

🍃 SCOOP 🍃

President Trump is preparing to order his administration to dramatically loosen restrictions on MARIJUANA.

The order would reclassify cannabis from Schedule I — the same level as heroin — to Schedule III — the same level as Tylenol and codeine and some steroids.

The president is expected to attempt to classify marijuana similar to some common prescription painkillers and other drugs.

It's very clear that unlimited wealth causes brain damage. That's not an exaggeration.

It's similar to other unnatural human conditions like solitary confinement (which is widely understood to cause mental deterioration) and other types of sensory deprivation.
