JD Vance owns a company that buys American real estate and sells it to foreign investors. They specifically target Americans in crisis to buy their property for less than it is worth.
JD Vance: "A lot of young people are saying housing is way too expensive. Why is that? Because we flooded the country with 30 million illegal immigrants who were taking houses that ought by right go to American citizens."

Next question should have been:
"You didn't answer the question, Speaker Johnson. If you like her so much, and respect her family legacy, what was the delay in swearing her in?"
And you don't stop asking that question until he actually answers it.

REPORTER: Why'd it take so long to get sworn in?
GRIJALVA: *gestures at Johnson* That would not be my question!

Very simple answer: because he supplies them with the answer to their deepest, darkest desires: unaccountable sex parties on private islands with minors and conventionally attractive young men/women. Those fiends will do and say anything to be included.
Something that’s so striking in these emails is how…unimpressive Epstein is. He comes off as a pompous, sub-literate lech. Yes everyone is so mortifyingly solicitous of him! All fawning and flattery! Why?????

Trump's HUD plan would cut *two-thirds* of permanent housing and push as many as 170,000 formerly homeless people back onto the street—redirecting funds to work mandates, forced treatment, and encampment sweeps.
All as mass internment camps are being built.

The International Criminal Court is ditching Microsoft Office, saying it’s too dependent on US tech, in favor of Open Desk, a German open source alternative.
The move comes after Microsoft revoked ICC head Karim Khan’s email access when he was sanctioned by the US for the warrant against Netanyahu.

If they're smart they'll agree to rescind votes, then vote to release anyways, and watch their old bosses get hauled away to jail once America learns the true depths of their sick pedo depravity.
My god (sorry I’m late on a bunch of this stuff. But wow!)
According to this NYT report, the head of the FBI and the Attorney General are holding meetings *in the Situation Room* with GOP lawmakers they are trying to pressure to rescind their votes to release the Epstein info. This is madness.

The Journeyman Project 2. We got it for free from a family friend, and I played the heck out it. Between this and Myst, it fuelled my cheesy FMV obsession. I also unwittingly ended up working with one of the QA testers as my manager later on 😲

There's been plenty of other menu themes I've loved over the years, but none of them bubble up in to my consciousness, unbidden, quite so often.

You can hear how angry and hurt these devs are. It's in their shaky voices and the way they talk about their work. It's an awful situation, for those who were forced out and those who remain
I went to meet the 'Rockstar 31', the developers who were suddenly fired from their work on GTA 6 for what the studio has described as gross misconduct.
That's not what the workers call it though. They have another couple of words they prefer to use: union busting.
