In this episode of “Interesting Times,” Ross Douthat talks with the Miami Herald investigator Julie K. Brown about who really bears the responsibility of the Jeffrey Epstein case. “It’s the job of our government to find out what’s plausible or what’s real and what’s not real,” she says.

This is a Hall of Fame reader comment on a very reactionary op-ed about Zohran Mamdani's victory that was published in my local paper today.

Picking radishes is no easy task. Efrén spends 8-10 hrs/day on his knees, picking and sorting the radishes into small bunches to fill dozens of crates a day in CA's Ventura County. He's proud to have worked in America's fields for 49 years. #WeFeedYou

Trump talking to Musk - about incarcerating NOT JUST American citizens that are criminals currently incarcerated here...
But also "non productive" citizens.

I really really hope that @hcrichardson.bsky.social addresses this during her Virtual Town Hall in just an hour...
