Back in 'Godfather' era, the mafia code was:

- Don't put anything in writing, that you can just say
- Don't say anything, if you can just wink and nod

Trump got "don't put it in writing" part, by not using email

But these people around Epstein—did they think emails could ever be "private"?

fake New York Times opinion column headline: "Why Are Pre-Teen Girls Obsessed With Entrapping Billionaires?"

Just a typical grueling work day for our rugged Homeland Security Secretary, securing Mount Rushmore on horseback with an outfit that would make a dude ranch hand blush.

The San Francisco-based company, whose founders include Sam Altman and Elon Musk, had said its language learning models absorbed entire training sets of data rather than storing or copying specific songs, the Munich court said. Because its output is generated by users of the chatbot via their prompts, OpenAI said, they were the ones who should be held legally liable for it – an argument rejected by the court.

"Sure, our plagiarism machine ingests enormous amounts of copyrighted material without anyone's permission, but it's the users of the machine who are the 𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘭 criminals, your honor." 🙄🙄

Just unbelievable levels of chutzpah.

ICE tried to deport an Indigenous woman:

Leticia Jacobo, a 24-year-old member of Arizona's Salt River Pima-Maricopa Indian Community, was born in Phoenix.

She was pulled over for a traffic violation and her license was suspended and so that night ICE was preparing to deport her.

Dear NPR,

You do not work for the president.
You are not his public relations team.
You do not need to try to boost his public image with “preparing to take on the concern,” especially not when referring to problems he has caused or made worse.
Your job is news.
Or at least it’s supposed to be.

We are a social species, and we have always prevailed through cooperation. Caring for our sick. Raising children we didn't sire or birth because they were part of our village or extended family. We are not breeders and predators, we are communicators and survivors. We evolved to UNITE.

Though it would be highly appropriate when Trump is gone and his name has been scraped off all of the monuments to himself he put up in his lifetime, the one remaining tribute is in the DSM-5-TR.

It's really weird to see people like Tucker Carlson and Megyn Kelly, who once had sweet corporate gigs, have to turn up the creep knob to compete with a generation of personalities that started with an iPhone and a mental disorder.

I basically said this other day, just didn't mince words. 🤭

trumps administration is the largest looting of the working class funneled up to the wealthy in history

This may be Trump's perfect social media post. A true work of art. He confirms:

✅He personally directs criminal investigations.
✅He is targeting opponents.
✅Epstein "records" exist and he knows the contents.

Bonus points for connecting it to investigation of his fondness for Putin.👀

As the FBI’s deputy director, Dan Bongino receives some of the country’s most sensitive secrets, including the President’s Daily Brief. His ascent to that position without passing a standard bureau background check is unprecedented, insiders say. @williamturton.bsky.social @chrisbing.bsky.social

Something funny about Larry Summers musing about how clever he was in calling women dumb while asking Mr Sex Crimes about how to run game

Something the US needs to accept too is that without a large-scale correction imposing consequences on a large number of people, the crisis of governance here will continue indefinitely

LI drug dealer freed by Trump now convicted of molesting his kids’ nanny and threatening synagogue congregant Braun was first busted in 2010 for orchestrating a major cannabis distribution ring, smuggling millions of dollars worth of weed from Canada to New York.

So old I remember when it was considered a political liability to hand out a presidential pardon to your son in law’s drug dealer buddy who went on to commit crimes of violence and sexual offenses. nypost.com/2025/11/11/u...

A small bird stands on the side of a wooden bird feeder. It faces the camera and has a small white seed in its mouth. It is extremely cute

Seems like time for some emergency cute. Please remember to look away from the horrors sometimes

“I’m a Grok guy” is the single most embarrassing phrase ever uttered in the course of human history.

Epstein clearly saw insecure nerds as marks in some way.

The way Larry Summers leans on Epstein for relationship counseling is... something

I really think the conventional wisdomers are underestimating how many people care about housing costs - and how much they care.

The rent is too damn high.
