The NFL Owners and Olympic Organizers in Epstein’s Inbox The sports media is ignoring the story, but wealthy sports figures are all over the Epstein files.

NFL franchise owners in the EPSTEIN e-mails & assorted docs

Partial list:
*Robert Kraft, owner of the New England Patriots
*Steve Tisch, co-owner of the New York Giants
*Stephen Ross, owner of the Miami Dolphins
*Zygi Wilf, owner of the Minnesota Vikings
*Arthur Blank, owner of the Atlanta Falcons

post epstein files release, we're just living in that scene in "sorry to bother you" where it's revealed that they're turning people into horse monsters and the news cycle just moves on, huh?

Insane, redditors find videos & audio hiding in plain sight in the DOJ’s online Epstein files due to .pdf files - congressional reps should check for the same ASAP before the DOJ scrubs them @chrismurphyct.bsky.social @reptedlieu.bsky.social

what a shot

NYT push alert: "A person was shot dead today during a struggle with federal agents in Minneapolis, according to officials."

By who? Who shot the person dead? You saw the video. We all know a federal agent shot a man dead who was prone on the ground. Also, it's not "according to officials." It's according to verified video seen with your eyes. Not saying what anyone can obviously see with their eyes is a form of lying.

Very cool that Congress just renewed ICE's budget with absolutely zero concessions

Alex Pretti "used to tell people off when they made sexist comments to female physicians. He bought me coffee when I had a really bad day as an intern...I laughed alongside him daily. He made a point to teach medical residents without judgement, but with a smile on his face and a joke."

I don’t want to hear anything from an elected official unless it’s a plan to defund the DHS and impeach Noem, Bovino, etc. No texts. No emails. No talk about the economy. Step up or step off.

NYT: Federal Agents Kill a 37-Year-Old Minneapolis Man The victim was an American citizen with no criminal record who had a firearms permit, the city police chief said. Videos of the encounter contradict the federal government's description of the shooting, a New York Times analysis found.

years and years of avoiding plain language and the active voice do make the choice to use it more impactful, I suppose

“As a reasonable centrist, I think the paramilitary death squads need better training.”

BIG day for us! Thomasin McKenzie is our guest for our **200th Episode!!** 🎈🍾🎊

Thomasin is feeling seen by Julie Delpy in BEFORE SUNRISE & feeling intimidated by what she called "the best interview she's ever heard," Jordan's Allison Williams ep from July 😊❤️

“If you live in Los Angeles you are used to having your city explained to you by people who come in for a couple of weeks, stay in a hotel in Beverly Hills and take in what they can get to within ten minutes in their rent-a-car. The thing that people find hard to understand is the magnitude of what’s here. The huge number of multiple cultures that live in the city that come together in this beautiful and haphazard fashion. And the fault lines between them are sometimes where you can find the most beautiful things.” - Jonathan Gold

"…and Magda Goebbels made a great strudel.”

Even before Bari Weiss's takeover, CBS is mainstreaming one of the most outspoken Nazis in the United States. Some of his past work:

I’ve been thinking about how the white moderate think about free speech. Where calling for violence and the dehumanization of entire groups of people is merely supposed to be pluralism at work rather than an a threat to that pluralism.

When you publish a website that posts the names and photos of scholars who have written or said things you disagree with and encourage people to surveil and harass them, you are not, in fact, a “free speech” organization.

Will be interesting to see which news outlets omit his years of violent white nationalism. I'm guessing practically every single one.

Dave Portnoy tweet saying ‘absolutely disgusting and disturbing video from Charlie Kirk shooting today. Hoping for the best for him and his family. Anybody who is happy about this is a disgusting human.’

Pop Crave Tweet: ‘Barstool Sports CEO Dave Portnoy says he hopes a missile hits Greta Thunberg’s boat as she sails away with aid: “I hope they hit a f*cking, like, a missile on her boat. Knock that boat down. Greta or whatever her name is”

This explains it better than I can

Gavin Newsome tweet: The attack on Charlie Kirk is disgusting, vile, and reprehensible. In the United States of America, we must reject political violence in EVERY form.

called it

It’s gonna be so weird watching establishment dems be performatively sadder about this than they were about the colleague and her husband and dog who got shot and killed

i think it’s cool when someone who wants me dead dies 👍 sorry bitch

This is the exact right approach imo - not handwringing about this particular incident, but about the people fomenting it.

ICE agents chased a family into their home, tried to kick the door in, and forced them to barricade inside. Then, one agent dangled their house keys in front of their Ring camera.

Incredibly disturbing to watch these agents’ unhinged behavior and the psychological terror they’re inflicting.

The one thing Dems absolutely cannot do is their stupid "go high" virtue signaling garbage. If the GOP wants to gin up anti-trans panic, go on TV and ask why they're protecting pedophiles. Keep asking why they covered up a child sex trafficking ring and don't stop asking

civilization vi leader two turns before you destroy his lone attacking trebuchet unit with a missile cruiser

Don't let up turn the screws tighter

This is a really, really important story, which is why I provided a gift link. Many people, when they think of higher education, think of elite universities. But most higher education is nonselective (i.e., they admit everyone), and a lot of it is community colleges.

I cannot describe how fucking happy it makes me seeing journalists just pointing out that they're lying. Once again, if you're calling, bringing up these articles as why you're calling is a VERY good idea.

Why are they lying? Why are they refusing to process legal transactions?
