Bari Weiss speaks about wanting to have "contentious disagreements" on news stories But Sharyn Alfonsi said that when she found out Weiss was killing the 60 Minutes story about CECOT, Weiss refused to discuss it That's not honest journalism It's catering to a political agenda The MAGA agenda

Conservatives: New York City is a hellhole! Meanwhile, a guy brings his dog (with a flower collar) on the subway and everyone in my area is chatting to strangers about their current and/or childhood dogs.

BREAKING: At least 16 files from the Epstein release disappeared from DOJ's webpage, including a photo of Trump, with no explanation.

And may every day be another wonderful secret.

So, everyone on the planet knew the release wasn't going to be up to legal standards. Why wasn't a subpoena ready to go at 12:01? Why are we now "looking into options" for something that was not just predictable, but predicted? And not just this one incident, it's every damn time.

This photo, file 468, from the Epstein files that includes Donald Trump has apparently now been removed from the DOJ release. AG Bondi, is this true? What else is being covered up? We need transparency for the American public.

This happened to a professor I know. A student cited a paper she did not actually write.

I saw Santa and Mrs. Claus at a street party!

I did not realize that former trump attorney and now one of his hatchetwomen at DOJ Harmeet Dhillon spread this, and that Elise Stefanik joined in. @chrislhayes.bsky.social adds that Stefanik announced she was suspending her guv run & not returning to Congress and correctly notes that…. Good!!

I just saw about 5 people walking down the street dressed like Victorians and for a second, I was like, "Whoa, did I time-travel?" but I'm guessing they're going somewhere to do caroling. Anyway, now I want a coat with a hood.

The New School owns about a billion dollars worth of art, most of which is not on display. They could sell the two Warhols they own and raise $100 million tomorrow. But they’d rather close academic departments.

Alright. Everyone can stop now. We have a winner.

Some of these redactions are almost like modern art

Every newspaper is like “Just saying that being in a picture with Epstein doesn’t mean that you’re a pedophile. Please don’t sue us!”

"We here at Bank of America remember a time when a woman couldn't get a credit card without her husband's approval. Wouldn't that be fun again?"

David Brooks is now the third alleged Jeffery Epstein associate at the New York Times. This potentially includes A.G. Sulzberger, the current chairman of the NYT board. The NYT published this piece by David Brooks about Epstein less than a month ago. Why did their executive leadership allow this?

ANNUAL STATE OF NYC'S FINANCES: The outgoing mayor is leaving behind a $2.18 billion budget gap for the next administration.   Years of underbudgeting and looming federal cuts could push that gap as high as $10 billion in FY27. comptroller.nyc.gov/reports/annu...

The stories out of Bondi, including the older couple that tried to stop the gunman and got killed, feel like a huge contrast to the US. We had 500 officers standing around in Uvalde doing nothing.

UnitedHealth is the nation’s largest health insurance conglomerate. ProPublica obtained what is effectively the company’s internal playbook for limiting and cutting therapy costs. Here’s what we found. (Published Nov. 2024)

MINNEAPOLIS: “We kept yelling ‘she’s pregnant! She’s pregnant!’ — they put their knees in her… the handcuffed woman was dragged on the ground…” Lawless.

It is difficult to overstate just how much, if it had to be invented today, the US would NEVER create public school

So there is already an ai-generated whitewashing campaign to bury the name of the Muslim man, Ahmed al Ahmed, who disarmed one of the Bondi Beach shooters, and replace his identity with a white guy name and that’s why even a thimble of our potable water powering this tech is too fucking much.

📽️ WATCH: After a bird flu outbreak tore through Midwestern barns, which led to 18 million hens being killed and a spike in egg prices, the Department of Agriculture didn’t investigate whether the virus was airborne. But ProPublica did. @natlash.bsky.social breaks it down: propub.li/4iVcYfD

Each semester I go in my classroom and I try to figure out what we would use to block the doors, if it would be safe to crawl out the windows, where we could hide if there was a mass shooter in campus. It’s such an indictment of this country how we have normalized these preventable tragedies.

This. This was the formative event of my generation & our entire politics in 🇺🇸. The structural break after which we were no longer a full democracy, when 5 Wizards In Robes decided they were a super-legislature & counting all the actual votes didn’t matter. The rest has been 25 years of commentary.

I am intrigued by the diehard Curtis Sliwa fan who still has not one but TWO yard signs in front of their house. (Is it Curtis’s mom?)

In Feb 2023, I attended a climate skeptics conference in Orlando. I was the only reporter. David Stevenson told me there that the offshore wind industry would ​“crumble” before it reached South Carolina. And that he was leading the opposition. I followed him for 3 years and wrote this story.

If we moved to green energy, we wouldn't "need" to start wars over oil. China's making the transition. In a couple of decades, we're going to be the only nation keeping the Middle East rich.

People keep wondering why they're going after Venezuela. It's because they want to do regime change and control its oil, then use a big tract of land there to keep a tax free "network state" that looks like Dubai but operates like Rhodesia. They are saying this out loud! Believe them!

Seven decades after Rosa Parks was thrust indelibly into American history for refusing to give up her bus seat in Montgomery, Alabama, new photos of the Civil Rights Movement icon have been made public for the first time, and they illustrate aspects of her legacy that are often overlooked.

We have a broken healthcare system that must be fixed, but the solution in the short-term isn't to deny people the ACA tax credits that they rely on. We must extend the subsidies so people aren't kicked off their healthcare next month, *and* we need Medicare for All.

An absolute horrific nightmare of two AI bots caught in a loop with each other is the perfect example of the total nothingness of AI “brains”.

This week, the Senate will vote on Democrats' clean, three-year extension of the ACA tax credits. Republicans have a choice: stop health insurance premiums from skyrocketing or abandon their constituents.

I'm glad colleges are doing this but it makes me so sad that things are so dire for so many people. www.theguardian.com/education/20...
