But also, my first reaction was "JFC Epstein - it's like you're trying to misspell this shit"

Also people forgetting that autocorrect hasn't always been around

The same Bill Pulte abusing his position to dig into private citizens financial records? That Pulte?

It's worth noting that the NYT eliminated their Public Editor position in 2017. Who will watch the watchers, indeed.

For folks (and journalists) who want to search the Oversight Committee email texts, I made a database for searching the 20k text files:

Can we circle back to the part where the NY Times never disclosed that they have incriminating information on Donald Trump from sent by Epstein that's been sitting on their email servers for nearly a decade?

Fundamentally, a whole lot of people just assume they, themselves, are correct. Starting from that point they just argue. No attempt to prove their point - or disprove the other point. This is dangerous and sloppy in any field. It's malpractice in science fields.

This is actually quite profound and exposes the foundation of a lot of ideological disagreements. Think about it, we have the vice president talking about science, stating if you disagree with a result you criticize and argue against it. Completely bypasses disproving the point you disagree with.

I hate that this is so legible to so many people

From the New York Times story on the pressure campaign to get Republicans to reverse their epstein vote Top officials met in the White House Situation Room on Wednesday with Representative Lauren Boebert, a Colorado Republican who is backing an effort to force a House vote on whether to demand the release of the files. She was summoned to sit down with top Justice Department and F.B.I. officials, according to two people familiar with the matter. One of the people said the session included Attorney General Pam Bondi and F.B.I. Director Kash Patel. Both people spoke on the condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to comment on the private discussions.

My god (sorry I’m late on a bunch of this stuff. But wow!)

According to this NYT report, the head of the FBI and the Attorney General are holding meetings *in the Situation Room* with GOP lawmakers they are trying to pressure to rescind their votes to release the Epstein info. This is madness.

Trump Organization Sought Record Number Of Foreign Workers In 2025 Labor Department data show President Donald Trump’s businesses applied to hire at least 184 foreign workers for seasonal jobs at golf courses, a winery and Mar–a-Lago.

NEW: Trump says America needs more foreign workers.

His company requested a record 184 of them for 2025.

10 minutes ago Michael Gold Congressional correspondent 山 The White House and Republicans had earlier accused Democrats of cherry-picking documents and ignoring mentions of other officials, including Democrats, in materials produced by the Epstein estate. The release of the additional documents seems designed to bolster their case, though it will be hard to tell without more thorough review. 11 minutes ago Michael Gold Congressional correspondent Hours after Democrats released three emails in which in which Jeffrey Epstein discussed his relationship with President Trump, Republicans on the House Oversight Committee made public 20,000 pages of documents that it received from Epstein's estate. The committee had requested a trove of documents from the estate as part of its investigation into Epstein, his longtime associate Ghislaine Maxwell, and the federal government's handling of both of their cases.

I wish journalists could act like they weren’t born yesterday. An uncurated document dump out of an investigation shortly after focused evidence is released is an expression of panic, a desperate wish to distract, and perhaps a hope that someone will find something they haven’t yet.

They then voted to approve his outlandish compensation package. He's stupid, but ain't no one more stupid than a cult of personali9Elon investor.

first it's pensions, then it's healthcare, then vacation, finally it's the wages, pretty soon you're just going to one box to work all day for no money and going to another to get the rest of snap to eat, which sounds a lot like how they described the soviet union to me in the 80s but what do i know

feel like not nearly enough people are talking about this — apparently the democratic “yes” votes have effectively agreed to having the u.s. government write 6 republican senators $500k checks?

I'm really worried that SCOTUS denying Kim Davis the chance to destroy marriage equality may lead to the dissolution of her fourth heterosexual marriage.

Expressing solidarity with your coworkers? Maybe you should be more respectful to your bosses like me, bootlicking toady Dylan Byers

Please please please do not accept the deal as it's being reported.

If it does pass, it's time to get rid of Schumer.

For those confused by state of play on SNAP right now: You're not alone
Yesterday, *before* SCOTUS paused order telling Trump admin to send out SNAP $$, a handful of states rushed to issue full SNAP benefits to at least part of their caseload.
This includes CA, OR, WA, MI, and WI—all blue states (🧵)

Gotta say, I’m not so confident that you do

Trump can shovel money at Argentina and Republicans can shovel money at billionaires, but there’s no time for working families? There are no funds for health care?

I cannot accept that.

Is there a way to buy a peerage these days? Because I would contribute cash money to get Sean Dunn named the Earl of Sandwich
