I hope this is one of the most consequential pieces I will have ever written.
Epstein and His Co-Conspirators’ New York Crimes: What NY officials can now do
I keep seeing people ask about the 25th Amendment.
Guys. His entire Cabinet is walking around in shoes that don’t fit because they’re scared to take them off.
The 25th is never happening.
It’s only been part of Iranian doctrine for two generations. How were they supposed to know?
Whoa. This is big. "The U.S. Navy has refused near-daily requests from the shipping industry for military escorts through the Strait of Hormuz since the start of the war on Iran, saying the risk of attacks is too high for now." www.reuters.com/world/middle...

NEW: Israel has concluded in #Iran war
• Regime change not an option
• Protests didn’t mobilize
• Kurdish option is no more
Result: Escalation of strikes as Trump looks for “elegant exit” and wait for next round www.al-monitor.com/originals/20...
This is no different from Putin saying MH17 was shot down by Ukraine or Assad saying rebels gassed themselves.
Tesla stock surges on news that Tesla has now fallen seven years behind Waymo in its quest for truly autonomous driving.
I can’t tell you how much I appreciate The Bulwark community. They single-handedly (many-handedly?) made my book *How to Eat an Elephant: One Voter at a Time* a best-seller before it’s even hit shelves. I might have to let @jvl.bsky.social moderate a focus group…
🙏
Doesn’t matter at all. Any format.

My book "How to Eat an Elephant" hits shelves Sept. 8 but it's available for pre-order starting today.
At its core, this book is about communications, persuasion, voters, and how to save America from the toxic forces Trump has unleashed on our politics.

the Austin mass shooter was a Tesla employee who assaulted a coworker during a company-allowed prayer break late last year

Thank you Bulwark community!
You raised over $96,000 for Second Harvest Heartland in less than 24 hours!
Along with the $60,000 raised at our shows, these funds will help provide 474,021 meals to the Minneapolis community,
US war planners believed they could prevent Iran from militarily closing the Strait of Hormuz.
But Iran understood that the insurance industry could close it for them. And this reality seems to have caught US leadership totally flat-footed. www.thebulwark.com/p/what-if-th...
It sure looks like the US regime is playing checkers while the Iranian regime plays chess. For instance:

"I don't mean to short circuit this whole exercise here, but watching people who voted to confirm her suddenly get all chesty about 'I had no idea' — go fuck yourselves."
@jvl.bsky.social and @samsteindc.bsky.social discuss Kristi Noem's appearance before Congress.
JVL is always right.
Saying a prayer for the influencers.
It's amazing how MAGA suddenly discover dastardly enemies we never knew about whenever Trump throws a fit.
Strongest signal yet from Colorado Gov Jared Polis (D) that he'll give clemency to Tina Peters as President Trump has demanded. Polis notes a fmr Dem State Senator recently got probation on charges that drew prison time for Peters, who unrepentantly defied the judge at sentencing

"No stupid rules of engagement" is how you shoot down three of your own F-15s in one day. Just a shocking display of martial ineptitude.
A woman’s ex boyfriend, who is a cop, threatens to shoot her
Women are at the highest risk for being killed when they try to leave a relationship.
She calls 911 for help & the Police Chief WARNS the boyfriend instead.
Boyfriend opened fire on her car
We aren’t angry enough.
We've renamed the DOD the Department of War. Our troops are Warfighters. No of course we're not "at war" you dumb lib
