- Slightly updated with new evidence of Epstein approaches to Putin with the cryptocurrency pitch
- Thread starting with 🚨 TWO SHOCKING FACTS: Epstein was in direct contact with Putin, boasting of personal invites to St Petersburg. He co-owned Thiel’s Valar Ventures w/ Ehud Barak, backing Israeli surveillance firm Carbyne. 1/12 bylinetimes.com/2026/02/03/i...

- McSweeney surely finished. Starmer’s fate, now in serious doubt, now essentially in the hands of the ISC and what is in those documents.

- Most of our media is studiously ignoring the Epstein links to Brexit, Farage and far right populism. Farage is being touted for No.10. He wants an even more extreme Brexit. A race to the bottom to sell us out to this global network of oligarch crooks. Why TF isn’t he being investigated and stopped?
- NEW: Keir Starmer on Peter Mandelson- “He betrayed our country our party and our parliament. He lied to my team repeatedly. I regret appointing him.” Says he’s asked the King to remove him as a privy councillor.

- An email apparently from Ghislaine Maxwell confirms THIS photo of Andrew with Virginia Guiffre - who accused him of sexual abuse - was real He suggested picture was doctored & he’d never met Virginia Her brother tells #Newsnight ‘It truly does vindicate Virginia, she wasn’t lying this entire time’

- Two days ago, we discovered Trump has engaged in the most corrupt behavior of any president in history—giving secret technology to China's ally in exchange for the Trump family getting half a billion dollars. And nobody is still talking about it. #Corruption www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

- Jeffrey Bezos is destroying the Washington Post for the same reason Musk destroyed Twitter and Ellison is destroying CBS—oligarchs oppose the free press when if it threatens their wealth and power. They don’t want normal people to see what is happening in America.

- Wow: This appears to be a draft statement written by Ghislaine Maxwell in which she addresses allegations made against her and Prince Andrew by Virginia Giuffre. Maxwell appears to confirm that the photo is real and admits that Epstein committed crimes—contradicting her sworn testimony.
- Here's footage from a 2015 video deposition of Maxwell (the same year she wrote the draft letter) in which she claimed she knew nothing about Epstein's crimes.
- BREAKING: The Supreme Court has refused to block California’s new congressional map approved by voters last November. The map will go into effect until 2030, countering Trump’s mid-decade redistricting scheme in November’s midterms.
- Bigger things going on today i know but watching Bezos buy, wreck, and now basically gut a media institution at a time when America really needs a free press is just such a grotesque waste. If you don’t know how to run it, sell it to someone who can www.theguardian.com/media/2026/f...

- The people of Minneapolis have been nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize. The first time a city's population has ever been nominated.
- So Farage has no issues turning to EU institutions when he wants to? How incredibly convenient that must be for one of the key midwives of Brexit.
- Farage calls for EU to probe Mandelson’s time in Brussels ft.trib.al/eAGo2wa
- Imagine seeing photos and videos of ugly old men raping underage girls and thinking, "I need to protect those horrible men at all costs."? Pam Bondi is a soulless villain.
- Today should be another reminder that when billionaires take control of vital platforms for communication, it’s not a win for free speech or "free markets." It’s a win for oligarchy.
- @ruthmarcus.bsky.social, who worked at the Washington Post for more than 40 years, resigned after Jeff Bezos restricted the Opinions section to focus on “personal liberties and free markets.” The Post’s mass layoffs are another sign of decline, she writes. newyorkermag.visitlink.me/2-K-gu

- This Homan presser is completely incoherent. He started by announcing a drawdown of 700 agents (good!) but then pivoted to whining about "rhetoric" (bad) and suggested there will be more bloodshed if it doesn't stop (grim). Not clear to me that anything is actually changing on the ground here in MN.
- Homan: "I said back in March of this year [sic] that if the hateful rhetoric didn't stop I was afraid there would be bloodshed. And there has been."
- Alex Pretti was killed because two masked CBP agents shot him 10 times in the back after they had disarmed and pepper sprayed him.
- Yeah, Speaker Mike Johnson. The Democrats STOLE the ELECTION. There's just no proof cuz they made sure the Republicans won the House, Senate AND Presidency. Very clever, DNC... But WE'RE ONTO YOU NOW! ("It looks on its face to be fraudulent," except for the part where that's 100% obviously a lie.)
- Most of the Washington Post’s tech reporters were laid off today, including me. I have loved my time at the paper, which is where I wanted to work from age 15. I take some consolation in not being among the survivors who will have to work harder with less for fewer readers. On to better things.
- Steve Bannon and Epstein talk about Farage and infiltrating EU Parliament - all to stop crypto money legislation. www.justice.gov/epstein/file...
- People who make billions out of billions are invariably horrible, vicious, abusive, nasty, bitter human beings who think very highly of themselves and their needs and their pile of money and absolutely nothing of other human beings. If the Epstein scandal has reminded us of anything it is that.
