Happy Diwali, Illinois!

I hope that the Festival of Lights brings you peace during this time of celebration and reflection — that even in the darkest of days, the light of wisdom and unity will always triumph.

Happy Diwali--the festival of lights, to everyone!

Enlightenment will drive out darkness!

I have celebrated Diwali three times in India. The most memorable moment was 2018 when I spent my holiday evening at the Golden Temple, Amritsar!

光明节快乐！光明最终总会驱逐黑暗！
2018年点灯节在锡克金庙。

New developments in my 3 year Epstein investigation, this time regarding JP Morgan Chase and its CEO, Jamie Dimon. This is a long thread, but worth sticking around for.

Incredible artwork by @4nikkolas.bsky.social.
Original artwork that mimics the famous raising of the flag on Iwo Jima, with the marines replaced by protesters in inflatable animal costumes. The Statue of Liberty and a city landscape are in the background.

四中全会今在京召开 学者料科技自立自强成「十五五」重点 但会有人事大变动
中共二十届四中全会今(20日)天起，一连四天在北京召开，主轴原是为中国国民经济和社会发展第十五个五年规划(简称「十五五」)布局，但会议前夕发生军队九名高层被「双开」和调查一事，令外界关注会议焦点会否转到人事布局。熟悉中共运作的学者预计，四中全会重点在经济的主轴不会变，将确立科技自立自强的方向，再巩固总书记习近平的权力和地位；但亦有评论认为，习近平正面临人才缺乏的问题，料全会将有新一轮人事调动，但高...
