The Brown/MIT school shooter was from Portugal—the most egregious example yet of an immigrant doing a job that could that thousands of Americans could have done.

Interesting how I haven’t seen a single person who tried to whitewash MTG’s violent history and claim she’s “coming around to our side now” speak a single word about her latest anti-trans bill.

Opinion | Why should the FBI care about catching the Brown shooter? It's not like he killed a healthcare CEO or a right-wing influencer.

People really are not ready for the level of rot that has been growing like mold through the elite circles of this country and those driving the trajectory of the lives of billions of people.

Democracy was dead in elite circles decades before they attempted to end it outwardly.
David Brooks, who wrote in the NYT last month, "The Epstein Story? Count Me Out" is... in the latest Epstein photo dump published by @oversightdemocrats.house.gov.

He should absolutely be fired by NYT for this. Major conflict of interest that he didn't disclose.

he's not alone, this has also happened to me several times where I didnt apply for a job and then I didn't get the job
Another incredible case of white racial grievance about the academic job market.

He reveals at the end that he wouldn’t provide the necessary application materials!

TikTok is going to be controlled by a group of right-wing billionaires. Great job, Joe Biden and congressional democrats, who joined (and stoked) the moral panic that initiated and then fed the process that has ended up here.
SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — TikTok signs deal to sell US unit to American investors, including Oracle, Silver Lake.

"Telling you why we lost to the most hated man in the country would be counterproductive."

Blue MAGA isn't even trying to lie well. Toss them all out!
BREAKING: After ordering a report on what went wrong in the 2024 election, DNC Chair Ken Martin is now refusing to release the report, claiming doing so would be counterproductive.

This lack of transparency kills trust, disenfranchises voters, and shows weakness. Just ridiculous. Indefensible.

For folks curious re the news re gender affirming care for trans youth I wrote a quick summary in the BDNH newsletter

It’s NOT a national ban.

it creates no new civil or criminal penalties, it is a proposal to wield the power of the purse to discriminatorily deny care

If you do not support trans people - by actively dedicating your time and money (if you have it) and voice to their cause - you are a failure of morality and humanity and you are not just a bystander but a culpable participant in one of the most violent attempts at eugenics of our time.

ah, more props to BuzzFeed: they did figure out Epstein was at the 2011 dinner after his conviction, plus at least 3 dinners beforehand. They even reported that Brooks was there! So six years ago, NYT should have known Brooks was socializing with Epstein. For shame. (h/t @dreadfulpenny.bsky.social)
In 2011, Jeffrey Epstein Was A Known Sex Offender. Jeff Bezos, Elon Musk, And Sergey Brin Shared A Meal With Him Anyway.
After pleading guilty to charges of soliciting prostitution from an underage girl, Jeffrey Epstein spent part of 2011 reintroducing himself to elite society. A March 2011 dinner with the most powerful...

To all marveling at photos of NYT columnist David Brooks dining with Jeffrey Epstein, 2 years after Epstein finished his sentence for procuring a child for prostitution, here's what it was: the 2011 "Edge Billionaire's Dinner". Elon Musk and Jeff Bezos were there too. 1/

My sense is that the “male loneliness crisis” is not really about addressing men’s emotional needs but rather the relatively newfound absence of having someone to perform domestic labor for you quietly in the background now that there is a longer gap between your mother and your wife doing it

you know why
David Brooks is now the third alleged Jeffery Epstein associate at the New York Times.

This potentially includes A.G. Sulzberger, the current chairman of the NYT board.

The NYT published this piece by David Brooks about Epstein less than a month ago.

Why did their executive leadership allow this?

Everyone calm down, it was just a dinner. It's not like Brooks wrote an entire column saying Epstein's crimes weren't a big deal and his critics are hysterical while failing to divulge his attendance!
The NYT imperiously declined to provide details, just declaring their op-ed columnists must of course attend dinners with "noted and important business leaders". But it's not hard to find. The Silicon Valley pantheon was there: Musk, Bezos, Brin, Mayer, Wojcicki, Mundie & Myhrvold of Microsoft... 3/

New FBI Deputy Director just dropped. He’s the former Missouri AG.

This guy used Missouri taxpayer money to sue Starbucks for harming white men, China for not sending masks during Covid even though he said Covid was a hoax, and who fought to execute a man who was found innocent of any crime.
