"Since the late 1980s, the path to power and influence as a leader of the American Jewish community has run through the foundation funded by and named for the lingerie billionaire Leslie Wexner, who had deep financial entanglements with Jeffrey Epstein."
"Social psychologist Jonathan Haidt has been sounding the alarm for years: best-selling author of The Anxious Generation, a book that argues Gen Z, those born after 1995 and given smartphones/social media.... has experienced a profound mental health crisis as a result"

"Israeli army continues to ban international media from entering Gaza This unprecedented blackout from a US and European ally, exacerbated by exclusion, contrary to humanitarian law of non-governmental organizations such as Doctors Without Borders"

BROOKE GLADSTONE: The Inquiry brought up the case of Denholm Elliott's daughter - PAUL McMULLAN: Oh, yeah - BROOKE GLADSTONE: - which is one case that you truly do regret. PAUL McMULLAN: I do, yeah. After Denholm died, she hit rock bottom, was allegedly doing methadone. And although she had, you know, the half-million-pound flat that Denholm had bought her, she didn't have any money to get her ten-pound bag in the morning. So she'd get up and go begging at the tube station. Here was a young girl crying out to be helped, and she met a police officer who didn't help her but rang up the News of the World and asked for money because he couldn't believe that this is the same girl who'd walked down the red carpet behind Eddie Murphy with Denholm Elliott, you know.
BROOKE GLADSTONE: And you offered her 50 pounds - PAUL MCMULLAN: Yeah. BROOKE GLADSTONE: - if she would come to your place and have sex. So you led her into prostitution, which she wasn't in that space for. PAUL McMULLAN: No, indeed. But she was in such a bad place that someone offering her 50 pounds for sex. I mean, that's five bags.
BROOKE GLADSTONE: So how do you justify that? Yes, she was a drug addict, yes, she was begging. Why push her that extra step? Why take pictures of her topless? PAUL McMULLAN: I was keen. It was in my first year. I wanted to impress Piers Morgan, who was my boss at the time, and just wanted to say, not only have I caught this girl begging, but l've got pictures of her topless and I've got her offering me sex for 50 quid. How great am I? BROOKE GLADSTONE: This is a pretty dehumanizing enterprise, not just for Jennifer Elliott, but for you, yourself. PAUL McMULLAN: Yeah, that's why I feel terrible about it, not just 'cause she killed herself afterwards, but I, I actually liked her as a person.
Sharing from a friend, a passage from the Leveson Inquiry regarding the British actor Denholm Elliott, who died of AIDS in 1992. Three years after her death, the News of the World journalist Paul McMullan did the following to his daughter—neither a celebrity nor even someone of public interest.

See new posts Conversation Drop Site @DropSiteNews Reps. @RoKhanna and @RepThomasMassie are introducing a bipartisan War Powers Resolution to “terminate the use of US forces from hostilities against Iran without congressional authorization,” with a motion to discharge and a vote expected next week. BP’s Saagar Enjeti: “There has never been a buildup or a potential military action like this … without any congressional authorization,” adding that outside of “like five people,” members of Congress “love this … They all support it. They just don’t want to vote for it so that you hold them accountable.” Krystal Ball notes Massie’s prediction that redistricting and primary shakeups could open space for more Republican dissent going forward. @krystalball | @esaagar | @RoKhanna | @RepThomasMassie
