Thomas Massie says the FBI is sitting on information that implicates 20 other men in Epstein's child sex trafficking operation

They include a rockstar, six billionaires (including one from Canada), a high-profile government official, a very prominent banker, and a magician

Abolish ICE. Deny all those who worked for them any honors or employment in government ever again.
ICE’s Detention Center outside Chicago was sued on October 30 for allegedly abusing detainees. One day later, a "system crash" lost all video footage that could have shown how detainees were being treated. trib.al/QwT3aqI

"Wow why would you ever use those settings"

Because you inescapably become a high-value target for weirdos with cooked frontal lobes when your follower count hits 10k or so.
after experimenting for a while I have to say the “followers only” reply setting is absolutely worth it

I still get nonsense; at this account size that’s pretty unavoidable

what I get less of is open hostility, surprisingly few people are willing to follow you in order to leave a rude reply

Private equity is the reason why every retail and restaurant chain seems to be going bankrupt. It's draining entire healthcare systems. It's hollowing out the real economy
private equity buys a company and immediately starts torturing their employees and the money

I am, and have been since the 70s, a KISS fan, but they literally have a song named "Christine Sixteen".

Maybe it matters that it is a Gene Simmons song.
I feel like maybe it’s a function of everyone online being born in 2002 but I don’t think most people realize how openly and explicitly pedophilic american culture was until like… maybe 10 years ago
Someone found an mp3 of the creepy "Jailbait" song Olivia Nuzzi released when she was 16 🫣

Same goes for

-education
-higher education
-government + public services
-probably a zillion areas I’m not thinking of/don’t even understand yet how big money has advanced an agenda that attacks any semblance of a public good we could/should have
I really hate it when scientists keep saying that “we need to rebuild trust in science,” because it implies that scientists are to blame for the mistrust rather than the millions of dollars of dark money that have funded political attacks on science in order to advance a far right agenda.

I went back in time to kill someone, and nothing changed. So I killed a bunch more people, and nothing changed.

And then I saved someone.

Since it isn't streaming, it's taken a few years or more since I've watched #12Monkeys (series) and even though this is like my 4th re-watch, this show is so damn good.

@terrymatalas.bsky.social @realtoddstashwick.bsky.social

And are you the only two here or do I need to tag more people?

Holy shit. The other quote of this leaves out the "told me years and years ago at the very start".

The reason the emails read like hot garbage is because they don't have to worry about being judged. These are not men who have ever poured over an email out of fear of not being taken seriously or not being treated professionally.

Starting a re-watch @terrymatalas.bsky.social

And who else is on BlueSky I can tag, sir? I'm at episode 3. And I know @realtoddstashwick.bsky.social is here already.

Who else we got? For one of the best TV shows ever?

I'm a nobody, so I shouldn't get to reply, but @moryan.bsky.social has a whole ass book about this.
Look I've done a lot of tough reporting on Hollywood (and sometimes leaked emails have been my friend) but at least a percentage of industry people know not to send an email that boils down to "hey I had a fun time doing horrific crimes with you, want to circle back and do more crimes next week y/n"

You think I care what party affiliation a pedophile has?

Why do you care what party affiliation a pedophile has?
"This could take down Democrats, too."

I know. And I frankly wouldn't give even an itty bitty damn if it implicated every Democratic man in Congress, every Democratic hopeful for 2028 and every Democrat who has even thought about running for office.

Down with the sex predators, wherever they are.

Been a bit, but doing a #12Monkeys re-watch.

I don't know who needs to hear this, but this is one of the best time travel shows ever.

The beginning of a new project. Cut to length, squared up on a shooting board, glued up as a panel.
