Kimbal Musk addresses his appearance in the Epstein Files for the first time, but he leaves a lot of questions unanswered. For example, he claims Epstein did not introduce him to a woman he dated. But why did he email Epstein in 2012 thanking the financier for "connecting" him with someone?

Super Bowl halftime producer: Now that you’ve signed your extensive NDA, you are ready for your incredible role in our show. Me: I can’t wait. I’ve danced to Bad Bunny my whole life. Producer: Great, you’re gonna be grass Me: What Director: Shut up nerd and put the grass suit on

My favorite Super Bowl memory is still when Elon Musk was at the 2023 game in Arizona and panicked about his Eagles tweet getting less engagement than Joe Biden's. He then flew immediately to Twitter's San Francisco office to start emergency meetings to fix the site's algorithm.

surveillance creep

drake watching this halftime show and thanking god

time to switch channels now to the real halftime show which will definitely be sick as hell

this game suks ass

In 2016, when Post reporter Jason Rezaian was freed after spending 1.5 years in Iranian prison, Jeff Bezos personally flew him back on his private plane. Bezos used it as a photo op. Now, Bezos is leaving people he laid off overseas in a lurch. bsky.app/profile/myhl...

“expired dicks”

This just shows a fundamental misunderstanding of how to do news. Data helps, but data doesn’t tell a reporter to spend a years-long investigation into child labor or an editor to place staff in a country on the brink of war. What exactly does Bezos think WaPo’s “journalistic mission” is?

Martin, an 18-year-old citizen and soccer player, traveled with his Madison-area team to Minneapolis for a Futsal tournament (which my kid's team was going to play in, then opted out). While there, ICE stopped Martin and took his mom, who has been detained since. www.jsonline.com/story/news/l...

"difficult decisions have been taken" is an all-time use of the passive voice

A fantastic essay from @mirandagreen.bsky.social: Where do the journalists go now? mirandacgreen.substack.com/p/where-do-t...

After files circulated showing he had in-depth comms w/ Jeffrey Epstein, news broke that Kimbal Musk recently stepped down from the Burning Man board. Thus far, he has not issued any statement. Musk still sits on the Tesla board. I've asked the co if he'll continue to serve.

sittin outside and a bird just shit on my laptop and phone. work is now over.

As real journalists from The Washington Post, the AP and elsewhere are getting laid off, pink-slime news sites are stepping in to fill the void. 🧵

My latest investigation, and first in a series for @towcenter.bsky.social : How ‘Pink Slime’ Publishers Are Weaponizing FOIA In the past year, we found a news-appearing network called Metric Media filed more than nine thousand Freedom of Information Act requests across all fifty states.

New: we dug into Epstein’s dealmaking in Silicon Valley. He used his connections with tech’s elite to get into hot startup deals, some of which paid off handsomely (coinbase) and others that did not (jawbone). W/ @rmac.bsky.social + matt Goldstein www.nytimes.com/2026/02/05/b...

gonna have a stroke thinking of epstein waiting 2 hours in line in the cold only to be turned away by the tattoo faced bouncer because his german sucked

While reporting this, I had something happen that's never happened. A comms rep for one of the co's disputed my reporting and said what I was telling them was untrue because it was not in Grok, xAI's chatbot. I was looking directly at the files. And this person was using AI to challenge the truth.

Epstein had many known connections to Silicon Valley CEOs, but less known was how he made money from those relationships. We did a deep dive into how he got dealflow in Silicon Valley, giving him shots to invest in Coinbase, Palantir, SpaceX and other companies. www.nytimes.com/2026/02/05/b...

Going thru the Epstein files, and here is Jeffrey Epstein talking with his PR person, Masha Drokova (now Bucher), about how Jeff Bezos is "smart, fun and visionary." Then Drokova says she isn't sure if Bezos is as special as Epstein.

That Jeff Bezos's Amazon gave Brett Ratner, someone photographed with Jeffrey Epstein and in the Epstein Files, $75 million to make a doc about Melania Trump, while he chooses to destroy The Washington Post, says about all you need to know.

Not just any guy in power—a guy in power who also demanded your publication agree to his editorial terms

This is Bezos’ most recent post. Too busy coddling those in power to address the lives and publication you upended.

Kaiiiiiiii

Today is the third time Elon Musk has bought Twitter in four years.

A memo just went out to employees at two of Musk's companies: SpaceX has acquired xAI.

In the last 48 hours, Musk's reactions to the Epstein release show exactly why he bought Twitter. He's used the platform to call coverage of his emails with Epstein as "lies," elevated his fans who have defended him, and gotten positive reinforcement from his AI chatbot.

"I knew another tech billionaire went to Epstein Island because Epstein told me while I was emailing back and forth with him to find time to hang out" is a bold thing to put out into the world.

Imagining a dinner conversation between Chomsky, Thiel, and Epstein…

Interesting to watch Musk spin his newly released correspondence with Epstein. What he is not addressing is that he very much requested to visit and party with Epstein, while SpaceX gave a tour to Epstein in 2013.

Elon Musk has repeatedly said he "REFUSED" to visit Jeffrey Epstein's island. Correspondence released today shows he was actively coordinating a visit between 2012 and 2014. It is still unclear if Musk actually did visit the island, but he certainly was interested. www.nytimes.com/2026/01/30/u...

sooo slow friday, huh?

Something too on the nose about talks of deep cuts to reporter jobs at Jeff Bezos' Washington Post, while his other company, Amazon, debuts essentially a $75 million propaganda film about the First Lady.

"If I speak..."

Tesla announces in its earning report today that it invested $2 billion into Elon Musk's XAI.

gotta wonder if the tech leaders who spoke up so vehemently over california's proposed billionaires are going to speak up against texas' curtailing of skilled foreign labor that they rely on www.nytimes.com/2026/01/27/u...

Scenario: Your new technology was just blasted by people everywhere for creating nonconsensual sexualized images of children. The solution: Let's run ads!

here's the thing: panic sucks bsky.app/profile/park...

In our reporting for the book and stories, sources who came into contact with Musk and his son, X Æ A-Xii, told us that he kept the child around Twitter's office to act as a security blanket. His children are there for his disposal.

kinda incredible that he sat down and was like, "the best forum for this apology is a paid advertisement in the wall street journal"

DHS is using explosives on people’s homes??? “Bovino has often used the phrase “turn and burn” to describe Border Patrol operations, a reference to actions like smashing windshields, using explosives to blow down the doors of homes and engaging in car chases.” www.nytimes.com/2026/01/26/u...

i'm at least a mac regular

Star Tribune: “Republican Chris Madel made a stunning exit from the Minnesota governor’s race on Jan. 26, saying he cannot support the national GOP’s ‘stated retribution on the citizens of our state, nor can I count myself a member of a party that would do so.’”

Imagine watching that and, as a reporter, immediately tweeting this seemingly without a single critical thought flitting through your head.
