That money is fueling the expansion of a private prison complex that profits from human suffering. These companies are a fundamental threat to the constitution and to all of our rights. They are incompatible with a democratic nation. They should be shutdown. www.washingtonpost.com/business/202...

It has been the same age-old struggle since before the ancients, since the very dawn of existence.
"The lights begin to twinkle from the rocks:
The long day wanes: the slow moon climbs: the deep
Moans round with many voices. Come, my friends,
'T is not too late to seek a newer world."

Gotta give Robespierre Massie credit for bringing attention to one of the most heinous creeps in history. None one else has ever done that with such a megaphone.
Massie: "Here is an email that was sent by the victims' lawyers to the DOJ. It was a list of names not to release. What did the DOJ do with this email? They released it! Literally the worst thing you could do the survivors you did."

You don't even need the 1950s, it wasn't many years ago a Cabinet witness who ignored questions to snarl personal insults at elected House members would have been gavelled down by the chair no matter which party and threatened with contempt, for disrespecting the INSTITUTION

So apparently at least 11 senior people (including 2 co-founders) left simultaneously xAI yesterday

Explanations?

1) Incriminating Epstein documents being circulated internally

2) Illegal activities discovered in the business

3) Extraordinary coincidence

Bondi laughing at the end is the real pièce de résistance. This is all just a big joke to her.
BONDI: You didn't ask Merrick Garland anything about Epstein

BALINT: Weak sauce

BONDI: And with this antisemitic culture right now, she voted against a resolution--

BALINT: You want to go there! Really? Talking about antisemitism to a woman who lost her grandfather in the Holocaust! *storms off*

This is absolutely what winning looks like for Democrats.

Just keep talking about Epstein until the midterms, don’t stop unless every file is released and everyone connected or who has impeded the release resigns.
BALINT: Was the president aware of Secretary Lutnick's ties to Epstein when he chose him to lead the Department of Commerce?

BONDI: Chris Malen was a Border Patrol agent----

BALINT: So I'm going to conclude that he did know!

BONDI: Shame on you

BALINT: This is pathetic! This is not a game
