'He was on the island, in the townhouse, on the jets’: Virginia Giuffre's co-author calls on Prince Andrew to testify | The News Agents Virginia Giuffre biography co-author says Prince Andrew should come forward to tell authorities what he witnessed during his time with Jeffrey Epstein, even if he maintains his denial of wrongdoing.

"He stated through his lawyers - more than once - that he was willing to help US authorities in the investigation of Epstein.

"It never materialised."

Amy Wallace asks why Prince Andrew, as a witness, won't cooperate with the Epstein investigation.

Who is this person? 🤷‍♂️

White words on a black background read: 50+ Immigration agents have the authority to detain whom they reasonably suspect are in the country illegally. We found more than 50 Americans who were held after agents questioned their citizenship. They were almost all Latino. ~130 Agents also can arrest citizens who allegedly interfered with or assaulted officers. We compiled cases of about 130 Americans, including a dozen elected officials, accused of assaulting or impeding officers. ~20 Among the citizens detained are nearly 20 children, including two with cancer.

Hi, I'm the ProPublica reporter who's been tracking an unusual stat: U.S. citizens grabbed by immigration agents.

I did it because the government isn’t.

This is what I found.

Respect to those who got here first.

"Authoritarianism, it's a cancer. The symptoms are here, today... We thought it couldn't happen here... and now the disease is growing, metastasizing in America. But there is a cure—it requires you. On October 18, Americans will stand up, peacefully, for what makes America, America." nokings.org

Up to 90% of all life on this planet died during the Permian Triassic extinction event when temperatures increased by 8C across 60,000 years.

We’re on track for a rise of 4C+ just in our children’s lifetimes.

It’s impossible to overestimate how much trouble we’re in.

What?! No. Say it isn’t so.

I Refuse to Stay Silent. Will You? Read more here.

I refuse to let hopelessness prevail. This may just be one essay, by a lawyer few have heard of, in a newsletter read by a fraction of the public. But I will not stay silent.

Love this. Superbly done. Please send this far and wide. @donwinslow.bsky.social

Then why are you providing a $20 billion bailout to Argentina and helping them cut deals with China that crush American soybean farmers?

Word from the meeting last night is that Speaker kept bringing up “health care for illegal aliens,” seemingly unaware that Medicaid and Medicare and Affordable Care coverage are by law NOT available to anyone here illegally.

Every time Donald Trump puts up a racist AI generated video of Hakeem Jefferies or any of my colleagues, I’ll put a new movie poster about Trump and Epstein.

I can’t believe Erika Kirk allowed her husband‘s tribute to be an opening act for that rabid hate-monger.

Apparently, both CBS and ABC will be streaming the Charlie Kirk memorial online on Sunday. So don’t worry! You’ll still be able to catch your favorite infomercials live on TV. And might I say, “Who Has Access To Your Data” is friggin! hilarious!!! 🤣

I like it. 😆

A memorial to Charlie Kirk has a quotation from him: "Immigrants are a critical part of our society, not to mention our economy."

New game just dropped. #StCharlieKirk

Correct. I stopped reading the Daily Bruin in the 90s.

Never dreamed UCLA would join the thought police.
Disgusting. 🤮

Just to be clear: Brian Kilmeade *did not* endorse euthanizing homeless people. He advocated MURDERING over 700,000 of them.

And on a network that has been *beside itself* over the murder of just one man this week.

Senator Marsha Blackburn tagging a public university for a facebook post where a professor share's Kirk's comments saying gun deaths are worth it.

We are at the point in the honoring-Charlie-Kirk's-memory cycle when faculty are being fired for posting, without comment, Charlie Kirk's words. At the behest of politicians sworn to uphold the first amendment, and in public institutions covered by first amendment protections.
