Putin: The US is interested in using the Zaporizhia Nuclear Power Plant for cryptocurrency mining.

Per Kremlin, Russia is negotiating joint management of the station with US WITHOUT Ukraine's participation, with the option to then sell electricity to Ukraine.

Zaporizhzhia is Ukraine.

Russia just bombed the main highway leading into Kharkiv - heavy traffic with families returning home after Christmas - cars are burning with people in them.

And we discuss signing something with them?

A country that had begun to make progress in believing women is regressing. In this environment, it becomes more and more difficult for victims to come forward, which means that the people committing crimes against them are going to get away with it. Again.

With apologies for writing about such a serious topic as we enter the Christmas holidays, these developments seemed too important to ignore.

I’m going to need to see the declination memos from DoJ where they declined to prosecute the Epstein co-conspirators, and I’m gonna need to see them for every single person they declined to prosecute.

On the disorganized, confusing and chaotic way that DOJ is dumping Epstein documents: This is not primarily incompetence. It’s intentional. They could have released more or less orderly files. But confusion and delay are a tactic to try to create public exhaustion and resignation—“we’ll never know.”

Nothing to see here. This is definitely a normal post that perfectly demonstrates appropriate behavior for a man with grave responsibilities to the nation and absolutely, positively does not show psychological derangement and incapacity to serve as president under section 4 of the 25th Amendment.

There's only one piece of writing advice that's universal. "Read as much as you can."

All the rest is potentially terrible, depending on who it's being given to.

You just have to figure it out, through experimentation, which means finding out some advice is terrible for you.

Kelly: For any leader to basically say, “Shut up. You’re not allowed to ask questions,” I don’t know who Hegseth worked for when he served as a junior officer in the National Guard, but it appears to me they were not very good role models of leadership—because this guy has no idea what he’s doing.

The files released because of Rep. Massie & my law reference “10 co-conspirators.”

The redactions protect powerful men who abused working-class girls or covered it up.

The full release must include the FBI witness interviews where these men are named. @jenpsaki.bsky.social

Really looking forward to tonight. We follow the Icelandic tradition of Jólabókaflóð, literally 'Christmas book flood'. Rather than watching regrettable repeats on TV, you give each other a book and then settle down with a nice hot chocolate to read them. It's fab! 📚
