NEWS: The FBI interviewed an Epstein victim who accused Trump of sexually assaulting her when she was underage not once — but at least FOUR times. But the document that shows those additional interviews appears to have been deleted from the DOJ website. substack.com/home/post/p-...
DOJ Removed Record of Multiple FBI Interviews with Underage Trump Accuser, Epstein Data Shows
The FBI spoke at least four times with a woman who credibly accused Trump of sexually assaulting her when she was a minor, Epstein files show. That document is no longer accessible on the DOJ website.

BREAKING: The Department of Education has ended its directive that attempted to restrict diversity, equity, and inclusion efforts in schools nationwide.

This is a victory for academic freedom and education equity.

I think I’m gonna just start blocking people for irresponsible TrackAIPAC use.

the numbers don’t mean what anybody thinks they mean, the conversations about it are rarely fruitful and never enjoyable, and the hit rate on honest-to-goodness antisemite is way higher than I feel like it ought to be

The Fulton Co elections expert shows, again & again, that the FBI agent put allegations into the search warrant affidavit & then failed to disclose investigators’ definitive refutations of them. The only bad intent one can infer is on the part of the FBI agent & any supervising prosecutor(s).
Fulton Co elections expert: “In all 5 areas identified by ... the [search warrant] affidavit, there are a multitude of false or misleading statements or omissions. ... Once ... corrected, the affidavit loses any basis in reality.”

1. DHS surges 3,000 officers to Minneapolis without doing anywhere near enough prep first.
2. Hundreds of habeas cases overwhelm local courts.
3. Dozens of DOJ lawyers quit in disgust/anger.
4. The DOJ brings in JAGs to cover.
5. A JAG was just held in contempt and fined $500/day for ICE's failures.

Real insane part of this clip is Hassett saying in the beginning that NY Fed researchers “should be disciplined” for…writing an economics paper that comes to a conclusion the president dislikes? A conclusion that matches the vast majority of economic evidence on tariffs? Nuts
Hassett: "The basic theory of President Trump's tariffs is sure, we're importing stuff from China, but we've got producers in US who make stuff, maybe at alightly higher place. If we bring stuff home, create demand, then that will hurt China & drive up wages & American consumers will be better off."

I just want to point out that’s Doug Wilson speaking at the Pentagon. Doug Wilson wants: the 19th amendment repealed, non-Christian religions outlawed, the death penalty for homosexuality, women barred from working or holding office, blasphemy laws, and one party theocratic rule.

One of the easiest ways to guess when a metric about American life (teenage depression, romantic pairing up, ect.) went to shit is when Silicon Valley began having a notable impact on it.
is the problem really that lefties aren't enthusiastic about technology, or is the problem that "technology" has broadly lost its valence as an apolitical and universally positive force in public life, and must now be re-justified through a culture war lens?

I honestly think this was a wayyyy undertheorized aspect of the Obama coalition—the addition of "technology" to the Democratic party appeal allowed a multiracial, cross-class, multi-faith group to say similar words about "progress" while meaning totally different things
for a minute there a certain popular and universally positive view of "technology" really was a kind of secular religion that held the vestiges of an "American mainstream" together, but the titans on top sold off the goose that lays golden eggs and now they want to believe AI adoption is the problem

yeah. short of twitter shutting down entirely, almost every single prediction of failure made when musk was firing everyone has come to pass. it just turns out that twitter power users value their network and racism more than a functional product
people did predict this! Apparently twitter had a reasonably complicated pre-docker setup that would be annoying for anyone to port
