With Trump designating a Special Envoy to Greenland, reposting that one of the pushes behind this is that the tech-bros have decided Greenland would be a great place to build new city-states from which they can engage in crypto-AI scams and general lording over things.
Good analysis but I think it underestimates how much Musk, even more so Andreessen, and other tech billionaires in the Trump circle are interested in Greenland for their own 'quasi-state' reactionary-libertarian paradise dreams

Given CBS’s ownership and the Trump regime’s censorious nature, that segment must have been rigorously reported, carefully written and edited and reviewed at a dozen different levels. Then it was heavily promoted before being killed a couple of hours before it aired. These people are so clumsy.

As a historian I've looked at hundreds of thousands of pages of government documents. And I just have to say that aside from being obviously illegal and clearly suggestive of some major crime, this “redaction” business is not a position in which serious people or serious governments find themselves
There is no basis to withhold these images under the clear terms of the Epstein Files Transparency Act. None.
WOW: The DOJ has DELETED an image from its release of the Epstein files that shows photos of Trump in a drawer.
Yesterday, we noted that this image — file 468 — likely slipped through the cracks while officials were attempting to hide materials pertaining to Trump.
Now, it’s gone.

Why didn't the DOJ release the files during Biden's presidency? Because Maxwell was sentenced to 20 years in federal prison in June 2022. And the appeals process wasn't exhausted until early THIS year. That's why. DOJ doesn't release evidence during a trial or appeal process, for good reason.

Stein: What is typical after a storm like this is that the federal government provides about 50, 60, even 70 percent of the damages in relief dollars to help a region recover from a massive hit. So far, North Carolina has received about 11 percent.
