Israel's military has bombed Beirut for the first time since June, claiming to target a Hezbollah member in the southern suburb of Dahiyeh.
It's the latest violation of a ceasefire Israel signed with Hezbollah a year ago, which Israel has broken with near-daily attacks on southern Lebanon.

One moment that sticks in my mind from the early Robert B Parker Spenser novels is when Spenser notices an attractive lady and then realizes that she's a teenager. He immediately looks away and banishes her from his mind.
It's a throwaway moment in a book series that's a lot about how to be a man.

The Washington Post editorial board decided the Epstein files have “no public interest” before even seeing them. That’s a stunning position for any newsroom to take. Praising Clay Higgins as the lone ‘no’ vote, too? No wonder no one trusts legacy media. Absolutely disgusting.

This was the plan all along and why people like Thiel have inserted their cronies into key positions in the govt. They HATE the FDA and have for many years because they want to make drugs (mostly longevity ones) that don’t have to go through serious vetting. Here is the inevitable outcome:
FDA is approving a new form of nalmefene for “prophylaxis” for “opioid exposure,” specifically citing fentanyl.
“Fentanyl exposure” is not a thing. Fent has to be intentionally ingested to cause OD.
It’s being made by a “blockchain-focused digital finance company” whose “biotech arm” is only this…

I don’t even know how to call this a morning after a night of sleepless torment.
I couldn’t sleep at all last night because bitter cold, and the blankets we have are not enough to warm or protect them.
I am extremely ill, my temperature is high..
I feel that humanity has completely vanished 💔😔😔

This is vile. Jamal Khashoggie was an American journalist who was brutally killed and dismembered by MBS for being critical of the regime.
Trump suggests Khashoggi had it coming: "You're mentioning someone that was extremely controversial. A lot of people didn't like that gentleman that you're talking about. Whether you like him or didn't like him, things happen. But he knew nothing about it. You don't have to embarrass our guest."
