The fact that they get to participate in the first place says everything it needs to about the double standards the Olympics and world competitions have for Israel and the United States versus everyone else.

How many of these athletes actively participated in genocide?

And, if that question has to be asked, should this country be allowed to participate in the international community?

I realized that a lot of the guys who have been found in the Epstein files are probably really struggling because the guy they would have gone to for advice about being discovered in the Epstein files was JEFFREY EPSTEIN
Over the past two weeks I've begun to realize that rich people only started funding chatbots once they could no longer email Jeffrey Epstein

always bears repeating that this is NOT a financial decision. jeff bezos is worth over 250 billion dollars. he can afford to lose many millions and never even notice it. this is, at its core, a political and personal decision by bezos to destroy the post

NEW: I wrote a little about why I think The Athletic should either correct or retract their puff piece on Britta Curl from December, in light of even more evidence of her anti-trans views. It was a blatant attempt at damage control ahead of the Olympics & The Athletic participated in it.

Rowling's people inviting Epstein to a dinner and a performance of The Cursed Child, long after he was convicted of child sexual abuse... exquisite.

With the latest Epstein drop, just think that Biden had all these incredibly damning files just sitting there for a whole 4 years and instead of doing *anything* with them he did a genocide.

I cannot tell you how much doubt was consistently directed at the Gaza Health Ministry’s casualty numbers and how much pressure was put on news organizations to couch those numbers as unreliable.

Biden himself said they were fabricated!
