Hard not to suspect that the thing that kept Epstein's documents secret and any actual co-conspirators safe is that every single person who has ever attended an East Coast gala has, at some point or another, sent Epstein an email that was like "SUBJECT: So sorry for the witchhunt against you"

So, yes? I'm not hearing a denial, which you'd expect to flow forth from a woman who seems to lie the way you and I breath.

Was this email among those on Pam's desk? Was it handed to one of the influencers who got invited to the White House for the big Epstein disclosure party? (It tickles me that one of my law school classmates was among the marks handed the "Epstein files" and he ate it up.)

I'm confused. On her way from a prison cell to Club Fed, Epstein's personal child sex trafficker insisted that the President of the United States knew nothing. Was the child sex trafficker lying?

the republican party is engaged in a cover up to keep the american people from learning whether president trump is president pedo

Saying you inadvertently backed the US into a “National Security Event” isn’t the flex he thinks it is.

I'll get back to "party unity" as soon as the Senate Minority Leader tells us if he voted for the Democratic party nominee for mayor of his city. I'm tired of party unity only ever running one way.

Once you start seeing the cruelty to the unhoused built into our public infrastructure, it is hard to unsee. Plus it sucks for everyone! I also like having a place to sit.

I don't know whether Carl Quintanilla has always been part of the resistance but I gotta say seeing him - a CNBC veteran and host of Squawk on the Street - say true things out loud that are unfavorable to the anti-capitalist in the white house is good to see.

American politics makes a lot more sense when you realize that the GOP is afraid of pissing off the GOP base, and the Dems are afraid of pissing off the GOP base, but neither party is afraid of pissing off the Dem base.

DAG Blanche knows better than to use the language of “war” to describe these legal battles involving judges who disagree with the Administration’s lawlessness. Too many judges require security as it is. To say nothing of the preposterous premise of his remarks.

Jeanine Pirro quickly googling how to appeal acquittal when u are the government.

Nice of @nytimes.com to make clear that, whenever its dull conservative columnists complain about the evils of "feminism" or "liberal feminism," they of course mean "women."

Sen. Gillibrand tried on live radio and immediately fell apart, also on live radio, when reminded that no, the thing she claimed is false.

Tonight's even more proof the mainstream reporters who are still on Twitter are suffering from a brain problem akin Havana Syndrome that is preventing them from accurately doing their jobs. They are being cooked alive by a snuff-focused apartheid algorithm.

The last month of the anti-Mamdani campaign was an absolutely shameful undertaking, an attempt to rip the city and Democratic coalition apart and I'm very happy to see it failed.

Boy Mamdani's race is really a vivid reminder that anti-Islamic bigotry is 100% accepted in US public discourse. People don't even bother dog whistling, it's just right out in the open.

In all likelihood, tonight there is going to be widespread joy among NYC democrats for the first time in ages (remember joy?) and the leader of our party's congressional delegation will not be part of it because he preferred the guy our party justifiably cast aside years ago.

NYMag blew up its story about ICE's increased presence at 26 Federal Plaza, and pasted it on a wall a few blocks away on Broadway

No, CBS will not settle any lawsuits against them that people may bring for editing out over half of Trump’s interview since none of you are in a position of power to approve their merger with any other media companies.

"At press time, GrokAI had not yet completed the Staten Island Zoning Proposal and thus the Cuomo campaign could not share how, exactly, he would modify City of Yes."

It is at least interesting that one of the administration's most vocal white Christian nationalists is married to a woman who is neither white nor Christian.

I am immensely proud of my friend Mike Colombo, who is running for BP of Staten Island, and has done such a good job of showing up and listening to voters that he has thrown the SI republican party into disarray. www.silive.com/politics/202...

It's time to meet the man behind @streetfilms.bsky.social. Over the last two decades, the Queens resident has almost single-handedly shot over a thousand short videos on street design, notching millions of views and nearly 40,000 followers. hellgatenyc.com/livable-stre...

I encourage everyone to read the indictment. Read it. People will lie about what it says and you should know what it says. She is not even being *accused* of physically harming anyone. www.courtlistener.com/docket/71795...

The Tisch family just plowed nearly $1M to support this guy. Mamdani may intend to keep Commish Tisch on board, but her family is throwing their considerable resources at a man willing to freely trade in Islamophobia if it means he loses by 8 and not 12 points. It's disgraceful.

At least we'll have been forewarned that the authoritarians in charge are building camps for undesirables. What we do with that information is up to us.

Centrists like to yell at me when I say that Dems let Republicans define them, but then the same centrists turn around and state against evidence that the problem is that candidates are talking too much about, say, climate and trans issues when every single campaign is talking about the economy.

Justice Kavanaugh: "and those individuals may promptly go free after making clear to the immigration officers that they are U.S. citizens or otherwise legally in the United States."

The one good thing about cancelling your Times subscription is that every day you are supplied with another reason to have done so. Like I find myself grumbling that I can't access the Times' most recent restaurant review but then I am apprised of shit like this and my grumbling ceases.

I think any story about Trump's autocracy should be mostly about the people and institutions who failed to stop it. This guy isn't a political genius, everything else just happens to be rotten. 'Toddler Consolidates Power In Household' is a story about incompetent parents, not shrewd maneuvering

About 28 percent of the people the administration has deported have a prior criminal conviction.

*Democrats run centrists three elections in a row* Centrists: We need to run a centrist. That's the solution

just took a quick look at the Grokipedia article on "Tesla Autopilot," and it's even more shockingly biased than I expected like, it might as well have been written by Tesla's lawyers if you want proof of why Elon is interested in this technology, it's all right here

I cannot tell you how many tech journalists at prominent media organizations do not understand this

Lots to process in here but it is apparently a violation of the Fifth and Fourteenth Amendments to put a protected bike lane on a busy, dangerous street. Who knew!

say it with me: it’s a Kavanaugh Stop

Fix the City has a link on its front page to "Follow the Money," except the link is subtly wrong (NVC.gov is not a city website; NYC.gov is). It's the kind of thing you'd assume was a mistake were it not an organization affiliated with Andrew Cuomo. Anyway we'll be rid of him soon.

What a pathetic coda to each of their political careers. Unable to win, and unable to lose gracefully, they're just going with rank Islamophobia as their final move.

I think Tesla would pretty clearly make better products and sell more units of them if it could somehow divorce itself from Musk entirely.

Thanks John Roberts!

100% Cuomo does not want to separate himself from Trump.

Behold the ubermenschen bsky.app/profile/bgru...

Nor is it a good reflection on local dem leadership, who cannot manage to express unhappiness, much less contempt, over Cuomo's contemptuous candidacy.

*screams*

YouTube is funding this, as is every other corporation that "donated" money to Trump's plan, either to resolve a meritless lawsuit or just to provide value to the president in exchange for I guess we'll find out.

The Staten Island Advance is continuing its "Staten Island Traffic SOS," mapping out the crashes that killed 55 (!!) Islanders since 2021. Few neighborhoods are spared tragedy, but most public officials on the Island worry about traffic, and not traffic violence. www.silive.com/crime-safety...
