This is amazing, infuriating and dredges up a lot of resentment I had managed to bury. The evidence was overwhelming and so many people refused to see it.

Schade, dass Virginia Giuffre den heutigen Tag nicht mehr erleben konnte. Und dass sie nie erfahren wird, dass ihr Mut und ihre Beständigkeit über viele Jahre hinweg, trotz zahlreicher Anfeindungen, dazu beigetragen haben, etwas ins Rollen zu bringen.

This is an excellent overview of some of what was in the latest Epstein files.
I’ve been thinking all week of a historical comparison to these files - maybe the pentagon papers - but these files are so much more banality of evil, conversations move from finance to children to lols
He had people all over the world scouting for victims for him, sharing photos and body measurements.
There are extremely disturbing allegations in there, including about abuse of children as young as five.
There was no shortage of victims coming forward
Some thoughts from trawling the Epstein files.
Epstein was a nobody. It’s mysterious where he got his money and billionaire lifestyle.
It’s possible he collected compromising material for extortion.
A major question is whether he worked with intelligence agencies

I worked alongside Steve in the Reuters Rome bureau. This is his story of hard work doesn’t protect you from hard times.

Didn’t believe this was true but have checked and am told it was sent to the Norwegian government yesterday.

It’s from a couple of weeks ago but this is a remarkable story by @naomiohreally.bsky.social on sanctions against the ICC
Trump-imposed sanctions are so harsh that ICC judges are being blocked from using Amazon products at home!

“Prost [an ICC judge] had been added to the United States’ sanctions list, because in 2020 she ruled to authorise an investigation into possible atrocities in Afghanistan, including by US troops.”

The US lined up Delcy Rodriguez as their preferred successor in backdoor talks with her brother a year ago, according to this reporting.
Uncomfortable echoes of Russia’s plan to remove Zelenskiy and replace him with the compliant Yanukovych
This statement from Spain (with Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Mexico and Uruguay) points out the kind of statement the EU -could- have made…

A brave survivor speaks on the record.
Sami al-Saei, 46, used to be a freelance journalist in the occupied West Bank.
He was arrested after working with reporters to arrange interviews with armed groups and was detained without being charged for 16 months.

In late 2020 a Chinese man called Guan Heng travelled to Xinjiang with our BuzzFeed map of detention facilities to provide ground truth for our work - he provided the first corroborating evidence for many sites.
He escaped to the US - then ICE detained him.
