Massie was crucial to forging the Epstein bill coalition. What he's saying here -- that Epstein had CIA and Mossad ties -- is supported by reporting, notably the excellent series at Drop Site on Epstein's as an international power broker. The mainstream media has almost entirely ignored this topic.
Rep. Thomas Massie: Epstein had close ties to our own intelligence agency and Israel's intelligence agencies. That’s why they’re trying to stop this.

It’s awesome to see this — but seriously, it’s so damn frustrating that we have to fight this fight in every city when the science couldn’t be clearer. Get the cars out, make more money for local shops, and build cities that are exciting, healthy, and happy for everyone.
It’s really important that #Vancouver’s Downtown Business Association, who were originally against bike-lanes, are now among their most vigourous supporters, because of ACTUAL EVIDENCE that they’re better for downtown business than any street parking they replaced.
Safe bike-lanes mean business.

This is a really good look at how tech billionaires (who want to live forever by uploading their brains into a machine) use fantasy writing to distract from the tangible real harms their tech does. Do you trust these people with weapons-grade plutonium?
The AI industry wants us to believe AI superintelligence is the real threat from generative AI.
But that narrative was crafted to distract from the many ways genAI is being used to tear our societies apart, as we saw this week when a deepfake video rocked the Irish election. It must be reined in.

Features a Black man in a keffiyeh shoplifting, an abuser, a trespasser, a trafficker, a drug dealer, and a drunk driver all declaring support for Mamdani.

This should be an Iran-Contra level scandal and I don’t even know if it will make the front page in this news environment
This story is extraordinary even by 2025 standards. Marco Rubio, the nation's top diplomat, made a deal with Bukele and agreed to renege on informant agreements in a years-long DOJ investigation into MS-13, totally undercutting credibility of such agreements.

When I worked in trucking, we were encouraged to go after grocery and liquor businesses because they are recession-proof.
I think it's safe to say we're in unprecedented times. If we can't afford groceries, our only option is to eat the rich.

So I guess ultimately, if all food spending is down, is anyone eating properly? Especially if money is a factor.
