Given the scale of Epstein’s trafficking operation, it's clear that many more powerful people were involved. My staff have seen a paper trail with their own eyes. Banks that helped enable him should be investigated. As should anybody involved in Epstein's trafficking ring.

Evidence shows JPMC severely underreported Epstein’s suspicious transactions to the U.S. government for decades, potentially in violation of federal anti-money laundering laws.

Republicans are treating this like it's some kind of treason. Nothing is being said here that wasn't taught to me as a US Army officer, as a core and standard part of my training.
We want to speak directly to members of the Military and the Intelligence Community.

The American people need you to stand up for our laws and our Constitution.

The US continues to lose manufacturing jobs—payrolls are down 94k over the last year, & another 6k jobs were lost in September

Transportation (especially auto manufacturing) and electronics/electrical manufacturing are the biggest losers, but almost no subsectors are doing well

Tom Cotton is a graduate of Harvard Law School, and he's telling us it's proof that Trump's boat attack victims are drug traffickers if CNN doesn't interview their grieving relatives.
Cotton on Trump's boat strikes: "Use common sense. If any of these had been boats full of fisherman or refugees, CNN would've already been on the ground & interviewed all their families & told their stories. We can be confident all of these strikes have been against cartel-based drug traffickers."

NEET = “not in employment, education, or training”
Attention is on NEETs today, but the problem is much worse.

NEETs include stay-at-home parents & jobseekers.

Strip those out to focus on people not working, not seeking work, not in education & not parenting: this group of economically & socially dislocated young adults has *doubled* in a decade.

Hazony and Douthat are obviously free to define antisemitism however they want, just like I'm free to believe that if I drink water while standing on my left foot it'll cure my cold. But someone with that belief about colds shouldn't be interviewed by NYT health as an expert.

In order to figure out where all the antisemitism on the right has come from, we interviewed the most obtuse fool imaginable who is both Jewish AND built one of the key institutions that has served as an incubator of right wing antisemitism since its founding.

For the first time in my career, I can’t tell people to trust what the CDC website says. And that is an incredibly sad and devastating place for this country to be.
CDC has overhauled its website to assert that “the claim ‘vaccines do not cause autism’ is not an evidence-based claim”

Massie was crucial to forging the Epstein bill coalition. What he's saying here -- that Epstein had CIA and Mossad ties -- is supported by reporting, notably the excellent series at Drop Site on Epstein's as an international power broker. The mainstream media has almost entirely ignored this topic.
Rep. Thomas Massie: Epstein had close ties to our own intelligence agency and Israel's intelligence agencies. That’s why they’re trying to stop this.

Astonishing to stop and realize that, at any given moment, bands of masked men armed to the teeth are storming churches and daycares, terrorizing entire communities—and that most of the country's political establishment barely blinks.

Former copy editor and page designer here: The erosion of journalism is a major part of what got us here. This only makes it much worse.
Ugh. So fucking awful.

My first job in journalism was as a copy editor, and I truly believe it taught me as much about journalism — on the copy desk in Warren, Ohio — as anything else I’ve learned since.
Stop laying off copy editors and then complaining about errors and lack of reader trust challenge

Lolz. Treasury Sec. Scott Bessent thought that if he kissed Trump's ass enough (& humiliated himself enough poorly lying on Sunday TV for him) he would be on Decomposing Dictator's "attaboy" list.

Underrated thing that's been flying under the radar: ICE's hiring spree, by necessity since there are so few others willing and able, has been hiring away local cops, which infuriates the departments by causing manpower problems and is, ironically, removing the worst of the worst from their ranks.
The more local police see ICE assholes as criminals, the better it will be for us.

I did a deep dive on the State Dept’s designations of four “Antifa” groups.

State doesn’t even allege that they have targeted Americans or the U.S.

3 of them don’t appear to be Antifa.

The 1 that is Antifa was designated in part for fighting neo-Nazi groups, which haven’t been designated.
The State Dept's designations of Antifa undermine claims that the mvmnt poses a significant terrorist threat to Americans, counterextremism expert @tomjoscelyn.bsky.social writes
