Greg Riches EVP and General Counsel at Formula 1 Las Vegas Grand Prix was in Epstein’s book? Did he visit the island? @chrismedlandf1.bsky.social @lukesmithf1.bsky.social this is worth looking into as f1 seeks to be a place for women and girls too.

🚨🚨 NEW DOCUMENTS FROM EPSTEIN'S ESTATE DETAILING HIS DAILY SCHEDULE:

They show meetings with Steve Bannon, Peter Thiel, and a potential visit to Epstein’s Island for Elon Musk. Prince Andrew is listed as a passenger on Epstein’s jet.

DOJ must release the Epstein files NOW.

BREAKING from PP

We found immigration agents have held more than 170 *citizens*

The govt doesn't track citizens held. So we did. We tallied:

Nearly 20 kids, two w/ cancer

More than 20 citizens held for day or more, incommunicado

More Than 170 U.S. Citizens Have Been Held by Immigration Agents. They’ve Been Kicked, Dragged and Detained for Days.

The government does not track how often immigration agents grab citizens. So ProPublica did. Our tally — almost certainly incomplete — includes people who were held for days without a lawyer. And near...

Ricardo Fosado, a Latino Dodgers fan and war veteran, is America. But bigoted entitled asshole Shannon Kobylarczyk is America, too, and we‘re in this fix in part because we like to pretend she’s not.

‼️ this is one of the reasons why the Musk shutdown of USAID broke me, like

Congress said 'we're allocating these funds to save lives'

a random asshole with too much money and unresolved bitterness about the end of Apartheid said 'no you're not'

so the funding disappeared??

and people are dying??

Hunter @hunterub.bsky.social · 21h

There's literally no reason for Congress to exist if any random freak in the presidential orbit can nullify laws and seize federal funds. All of this is plainly illegal, but Mike Johnson leads the most corrupt Congress in US history (and by a wide margin.)

Trial run decorating my alter

Trial run painted wood alter for day of the dead featuring painted skulls, candles, pan de muerto, marigolds, and skeletons with marigold decorations. On the middle row is a miniature serape and miniature clay coffee cup, concha, burrito, tamale, and a woven basket.

It turns out, financially incentivizing viral slop, rage bait, hate, divisive politics, porn bots, and other generally horrifying vaudevillian behavior was a really quick way to destroy that app. Who could have seen that coming, except for everybody who used it?

American Christianity is measured by how much Christian content you consume

the babahuck @tylerhuckabee.bsky.social · 1d

these metrics are not meaningfully connected to the claim

Eric Daugherty: JUST IN: Stunning data reveals Christianity is SURGING in the United States

Bible sale: +41.6%
App downloads: +79.5%
Christian music streaming: +50%

What an amazing sight to see.

But again this isn't an apples to apple comparison - native Americans are from here, the average Black American's family has been here centuries longer than the average white Americans. We had centuries of unfettered immigration from Europe and only closed the door when poc were allowed in
