👀 Apparently, Ross Douthat invited Seth Harp to debate him on Douthat's "Interesting Times" NYT podcast. Harp says that the episode was recorded, Douthat got crushed, and RD/NYT decided not to publish it.

What? x.com/sethharpesq/...
Seth Harp @sethharpesq X.com Ross Douthat @DouthatNYT challenged me to a debate on foreign policy. We recorded a 90-minute segment for his show, Interesting Times, on 1/15/26. But I defeated him so decisively that he refuses to air the footage. What an absolute coward. Today 11:41 AM Hi Is the NYT still planning to publish the interview I did with Ross three weeks ago? Today 1:01 PM Hey Seth, we've been working through the edit and it's looking like we aren't going to be able to make it work. We were kind of pummeled by the news cycle in the last 6 weeks and are going to pivot away from this story. Thanks for the time you put into it and for your expertise. Unbelievable cowardice on Ross's part and a giant waste of my time. I'm going to make it known what actually happened: Ross challenged me to a debate on foreign policy, got crushed, and doesn't have the intellectual or journalistic integrity to air the footage. Delivered Seth Harp @sethharpesq. •6h Five days after we recorded, an editor of mine asked me how it went. I told her that @DouthatNYT was surprisingly unprepared to defend his point of view, and I suspected even then that they would spike it. From To seth.harp@protonmail.com * T Jan 20 凹 了 介 → It seemed to go just fine from my perspective although it did get a little heated towards the end when we debated foreign policy. I was somewhat surprised that Ross wasn't better prepared defend his point of view. They may still decide to spike it, we'll see.

WASHINGTON—Pulling her aside at a Treasury Department event Wednesday, President Donald Trump reportedly asked hip-hop artist Nicki Minaj to explain eating ass. “Explain it to me, in the simplest terms,” said the bewildered 79-year-old president of the United States, who clasped Minaj’s hand and looked her in the eye as he urged her to enlighten him on the mystifying sexual act. “I know it’s what they’re doing right now. It’s the very hot thing. But what constitutes the ass? Does it feel good to the person who’s doing it, or the person who’s having it done? What do I do with my penis?” At press time, sources confirmed Trump was calling over Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and shouting, “Bobby, they’re eating the shit!”

Happy 3 year anniversary to this post
We recommend avoiding general and often dehumanizing "the" labels such as the poor, the mentally ill, the French, the disabled, the college-educated. Instead, use wording such as people with mental illnesses.

Crypto holder loses $283 million to scammer impersonating wallet support

January 10, 2026
https://www.web3isgoinggreat.com/?id=trezor-support-scam
Crypto holder loses $283 million to scammer impersonating wallet support A crypto holder has lost $282 million in bitcoin and litecoin after a scammer impersonating a customer support employee for the Trezor hardware wallet manufacturer successfully convinced them into revealing their seed phrase. After gaining access to the assets, they quickly swapped them to the Monero privacycoin. The volume of assets was so large that the Monero price spiked as the scammer laundered the finds. The scammer also swapped assets using the THORChain project, which boasted on social media about the "World record speedrun. ⚡️" (presumably without realizing they were bragging about a thief using their project to launder money). Around $700,000 of the stolen assets were frozen thanks to intervention by a security firm called ZeroShadow, although this represents only 0.2% of the total loss.

This poll shows that 74% of Democrats support abolishing ICE, with 53% *strongly* supporting getting rid of the agency.

Any elected Democrat who wants ICE to exist is outside the mainstream of their party and the people they purport to represent.
