"Governments always need enemies, even when they’re not at war. If you don’t have a real enemy, you make one up and spread the word. It scares the population, and when the people are scared, they tend not to step out of line.”

The EPA is starting to allow the use of pesticides containing PFAS on food.
The move is part of an effort to roll back the regulation of what are called "forever chemicals" because they don't break down easily in the environment.

We knew it was Felt. There were two or three people with that information and Gray was ours. With Epstein hundreds of people or more have seen these files or substantial parts of them.
This is what I want to know. @dicknixon.bsky.social alluded to T and allies “getting cute” at this stage, and I wonder what the trigger point will be for someone leaking who otherwise wouldn’t dare.
