Bernie Sanders: "We need to be thinking seriously about a moratorium on data centers. You gotta slow this process down. It's not good enough for the oligarchs to tell us 'you adapt.' Are they gonna guarantee healthcare to all people? What are they gonna do when there are no jobs? Make housing free?"

Julie K. Brown is a reporter for the Miami Herald who did groundbreaking work on Epstein beginning in 2018, including groundbreaking work on the disgusting coverup by Alex Acosta.
Her travel itinerary was released with some of the Epstein files. It appears the DOJ was monitoring her in 2019.

From my friend Maria. The LA River is usually nothing more than occasionally damp cement. (That’s where the drag race in Grease was filmed)
The husband took this video of the L.A. River behind our house. It's usually bone dry.

Fact | You can't write something predicated in the utterly ludicrous assumption that white men are being excluded from publishing unless you are racist.

ICE are not legitimate federal agents. They are not law enforcement. They have no authority to commit crimes, violate rights, assault and kidnap Americans. Zero. They're criminals with badges and guns.

Like the Kremlin does.
Trump’s 'National Security Strategy' declares the US will focus on 'cultivating resistance to Europe’s current trajectory within European nations.' That amounts to a declaration the US will promote regime change in countries that remain governed by pro-democracy parties that support the EU and NATO"
Make America Weak
Trump is systematically undermining America's interests at home and abroad.

The commonality bt the 60 Minutes Fiasco and the failed Jeffrey Epstein rollout is the incompetence of the person leading the effort.
NYT shows how Bari Weiss really screwed this up.
She didn't attend any of the 5 screenings of the story, which began on Dec. 12.
She only first weighed in on Thursday, and the show incorporated her suggestions.
She then waited until weekend to ask for more edits.

I think if you’re going to write a long piece about how evangelicals have a wider variety of political commitment than is commonly understood you should probably not duck the question of what those commitments are every time it presents itself like you’re Neo in The Matrix
