Midlife Crisis Actor
If I post on here, it's probably so I don't forget it.
- KIM: When Binance founder Zhao pleaded guilty to violating money laundering laws & was sent to prison, Binance injected billions into Trump's business & Zhao was pardoned. Is that a conflict? BESSENT: I'm unfamiliar with any of that KIM: Is it a conflict? BESSENT: Again, I'm not going to respond
- I think it should probably be a bigger story that the president of the United States is a raving lunatic
- lmao Scott Bessent is still doing his soybean farmer gimmick

- Trump at the National Prayer Breakfast on himself: "He may not have ever read the Bible, but he will be a much stronger messenger for us"
- concentration camp fetish
- Having literally written the book on the National Prayer Breakfast -- borne of the idea that God cares more for the rich and powerful than everyone else -- I can say this is the rare instance where Trump's grotesqueness is deeply appropriate.

- Boris Nikolic: When are you back in NYC? Epstein: 4th im in palm with all the trump boys. . fun Email from December 25, 2016.

- * US Companies Announce Most Job Cuts for Any January Since 2009 @bloomberg.com
- CNN: "New data shows January was the lowest months for job cuts since the 2009 Great Recession...layoffs way up, hiring ways down. During the month of January, US-based employers announced just over 108,000 layoffs. That's roughly double January 2025. In fact, this is the highest since January 2009"
- GOLDMAN DESK: “.. this is our AI ‘at-risk basket’ ... Tuesday was the single most violent day of the entire ChatGPT era.”
- If Dem senators vote to extend the DHS CR again, they are instantly going to lose a tremendous amount of support from their base who have been in wait-and-see mode on this. I can only assume Dem senators considering this have completely lost touch with their voters. Don’t do it.
- The billionaire class wants to decimate the white collar workforce. Because white collar workers are expensive. And because white collar workers—who historically sided with billionaires—are questioning that alliance. Which makes their knowledge and resources a huge threat to billionaire power.

- The reaction of the Trump admin from Karoline Leavitt: “It’s a brutal war.” That’s all you get. That’s the reaction. Don’t forget to thank Trump, or Vance will get upset.

- ‘One officer told me that I "had no chance of returning to Minnesota" and that "the best thing for (me] is self-deportation." … She offered me $2600 to self-deport. I refused. I wanted to talk to my attorney. They didn't tell me the judge had already ordered my release and return to Minnesota.’
- Until now, estimating how old a dinosaur was when it died has been a fairly simple process: Count up the growth rings in the fossilized bones. But new research into some of dinosaurs' living relatives, like crocodiles, suggests that this method may not always work. n.pr/4qTSIhz

- 🚨 New: We built a visual tracker of the warehouses ICE is targeting across the US. Working off an idea from @actualkatherine.bsky.social, we’ve mapped active searches, canceled deals, and linked state property records. Explore the map here: tinyurl.com/ICEWarehouse...

- Coming out tonight—about 10PM ET—is the most important report I’ve ever written on Trump and Epstein. It began with a deep dive into the Epstein Files, once I learned that my work appeared in them several times. What I found changed forever how I see the Epstein Scandal. I think it will for you too.

- Whistleblower’s lawyer to Tulsi: “You have given us zero guidance… I will contact the senate committee re your conduct on Monday… I maintain top secret eligibility and have been routinely read into matters of national security…” (From @AdamParkhomenko)
- We just passed $3 million raised, powered by 57,000+ grassroots donors with an average gift of $31. This campaign is built by people, not the ultra rich or special interests like AIPAC. You decide who Congress answers to.
- whoever figures out a way to bundle independent journalism subscriptions will be a hero
-
View full thread"that's just a newspaper" "that's just a magazine" "just form a co-op, it's easy" no, it's not, and you're driving me nuts. the idea is to pay one fee to have access to separate publications. if it were easy, we would've done it already.
- "this exists" no it doesn't "it won't work" bye "here's why that's a bad idea" also bye i've run my own thing for almost four years and there's a lot i don't know but i've learned some shit. i think a bundle subscription would be a net positive for independent journalism.

- the guy who financed a propaganda film about the nazi first lady is killing a newspaper that writes unfavorably about her and her husband. this is how the club works.
- "ICE guys are pretty miserable. I don’t think morale is particularly high for them. They’re freezing, they’re getting shouted at. They can’t go anywhere without being tailed by 5 cars. They get out and immediately there's a crowd of 100 people shouting at them, blowing whistles as loud as they can."
