You May Be Asking Yourself How Did Dan Bongino Get Here A review of how Dan Bongino went from Secret Service agent to conspiratorial podcaster to the FBI deputy director who needed a personal day.

Dan Bongino decided to apply to med school while watching an episode of Grey's Anatomy. (His wife thought it was a bad idea). It went about as well as his Epstein promises. Now, he runs ops at the FBI with, well, uncertain emotion. I ponder Being Bongino. www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

READ @stephenrodrick.bsky.social on the Dan Bongino anger rodeo. Lots of fear and loathing throughout.

Well you are the dream in my nightmare
I am that falling sensation
You are not needles and pills
I am your hangover morning
We are tangled
We are stolen
We are living where things are hidden
We are luck
We are fate
We are the feeling you get in the golden state

Why Did National Geographic Disappear Its Own Documentary About A Queer Climate Scientist? | Defector If you’re not a particular kind of mountain sports nerd, you might not be familiar with the Banff Centre Mountain Film Festival World Tour. But for people who live their lives in the overlapping circl...

Last fall, I attended the premiere of a film that meant a lot to me. In late January, all of its hundreds of planned screenings were canceled without explanation. For @defector.com, I went digging:

this site would be 800% better if everyone watched the gilded age, a beautiful, vapid show written at a second grade reading level that never disappoints

Concealed Handguns Create a Climate of Fear, the Gun Industry’s Own Research Reveals The gun industry is pushing Congress to loosen restrictions on carrying, even though routine carrying makes even its customers feel less safe.

1/My primary concern as an investigative reporter is unearthing what the gun lobby/industry does not disclose to the public. In that regard, I consider my latest story for @thetrace.org and @rollingstone.com to be among the most significant I've ever published: www.thetrace.org/2025/07/gun-...

The latest trend in sports is photo shopping NBA players so it looks like they have lost 50 pounds since May. Luka Doncic is ready for his skinny jeans.

You are seen.

Paul Schrader in LA. He's got five more films in him.

Sometimes, in my somber moments, I reflect on the possible end of my career. But then I light another Virginia Slim and realize I have not yet done my heel turn where I become the reporter who is 'just asking the tough questions' while doing a pro-Trump podcast. I've got another 15 yrs in the tank.

Trump about to announce free immortality pill for Americans as long as they stop asking about Epstein.

Could I have found my way out
Could my two girls grow up to be free
If you ever touch a hair on their heads
If you ever look at them the way you do me
I'll wash away my faith and stay in red

YES

Simultaneously reading Evan Dando and Dan Bongino's memoirs which are two separate books, but imagine if they had collaborated!

Honestly I would be happier if the Trumpists just said “we have a list of people we hate and we’re going to put them in camps or kill them” rather than make us sit through a lot of Matt Taibbi bullshit. I mean at some point just call me an enemy of the state and spare me the Bat Boy stuff.

Matt Taibbi on Twitter, along with a screenshot of the dictionary definition of "buy": "Bought" is the past tense of "buy," which always connotes payment. I was not paid and therefore not "bought":

He talks like Young Sheldon now

One year anniversary of that one time as an adult when I was without a job for six days. So much depravity.

"While Ben was at college, he met a kid named Doug. He lived in the same dorm as Ben and they got to be friends. We hated his goth rattail, but what could we say? The rest of us were ardently sweater rock."

YouTube video by edinsf01 Sam Phillips - Love & Kisses

Pictures steal our memories
Turn our minds to salt
History is written to say it wasn't our fault, wasn't our fault
Send us all your love and kisses
Come and join the dream that never ends
God will grant us all our wishes
Martinis and Bikinis for our friends
