I thought I was cynical about DC political media but even I have been genuinely horrified at the way they're all rallying around Nuzzi, as though she's some kind of victim here! Just fucking mind-boggling.
The Nuzzi story isn't about an affair, it's about the extraordinary corruption, moral stupidity, and cliquishness of elite media. (From the Feed Me Substack.)

NEW: A newly enacted NY state law requires retailers to reveal whether it used "surveillance pricing" to decide how much you pay for goods. Target, for example, shows the alert on a pop-up when you try to buy eggs online. @regret.bsky.social—@wired.com's new investigative data reporter!—reports:
Your Data Might Determine How Much You Pay for Eggs
A newly enacted New York law requires retailers to say whether your data influences the price of basic goods like a dozen eggs or toilet paper, but not how.

Nvidia is spending $1.3 billion to rent its own chips back from CoreWeave, a company in which it owns a $4 billion stake.

There are, AFAICT, only two explanations for this arrangement:

(1) It's accounting fraud.
(2) It's accounting non-fraud, because we don't prosecute financial crimes anymore.

I can't tell you how many of my (wonderful, driven, caring, genuinely outstanding) students are Somali. I'd take each and every one of them over a thousand of that orange pissbag. I'd take a single one of them over every last dollar he has.

My students are an inspiration. Trump's an embarrassment.

New, from me: Trump’s justification for invading American cities and other countries is to reduce the crime he is actively encouraging through his pardons.
It’s emblematic of how corrupt the pardon process has become under Trump.

One of the military’s most critical lines of accountability is now a closed-circuit conspiracy carousel.
