Well at least he was never political

Oh.

Jeffrey Epstein advised Steve Bannon that the lawyers representing Brett Kavanaugh in his confirmation hearing should accuse Christine Blasey Ford of being on medications that cause false memories or memory loss.

A recent leak from an ICE detention facility near Houston shows hundreds of detainees packed into a shared room without beds or bathrooms. The footage highlights allegations that the facility's air conditioning is kept on maximum, intentionally subjecting occupants to freezing conditions.

Whats so unnerving, among many other aspects of the whole sordid Epstein miasma, is how incestuous the world of these elites are. Everyone knows everyone. The personal, social, and professional spheres all overlap.

ICYMI: Microsoft’s charge “implies a more than $12 billion quarterly loss at OpenAI, said Firoz Valliji, an analyst at Bernstein.” That “would mark one of the largest single-quarter losses for a tech company in history.” @jessefelder.bsky.social $MSFT www.wsj.com/livecoverage...

and they want you to think that Epstein and Mandelson weren’t close friends for aeons

by the time this is all over, we're going to find out that Epstein was in the Trump Files

Nice try Democrats, but not even releasing a bunch of the Epstein documents is going to trick Americans into reading.

TBC I have little doubt that multiple intelligence services viewed him as an “asset” since he knew tons of powerful people, had dirt on some percentage of them, and was himself vulnerable to pressure.

Tonight I had a good call with Prime Minister Keir Starmer, during which we discussed progress made and reiterated our commitment to our renewed agenda. We have agreed to start negotiations on both the SPS and ETS agreements next week.

Boy do I wish I could have a chat with all the naysayers when I posited that Epstein was a dirt factory for Putin. How many times have we asked "what does Putin have on Trump?" www.politico.com/news/2025/11...

New from me: “working the refs” has come for Wikipedia. The same type of attacks alleging anti-conservative bias that right wing politicians have make about social media are coming for the encyclopedia — because of its critical role in shaping AI answer engines. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2025/1...

🚨🚨BREAKING: Rep. Adelita Grijalva has signed the discharge petition to release the Epstein files, bringing the total number of signatures to the needed 218.

Then please ban Musk, Thiel and other fascist tech-oligarchs from operating or bidding for EU contracts.

The EU has launched its long-awaited Democracy Shield to counter disinformation and foreign interference — but the focus is on coordination and voluntary measures, not enforcement, reports Ramsha Jahangir.

This is weird.

“So we asked ourselves: how could we make the common bicycle heavier, more dangerous and, ultimately, reliant on electricity” From the new Private Eye, in shops now.

Three points I keep repeating 1. Left and liberal voters actually really exist 2. The right and "centre" are trying to rule without liberals - they are way out over their skis 3. Reports of right wing total information control are greatly exaggerated

EU pharma talks inch forward as negotiators eye December deal

An astonishing number of people in the Labour party have forgotten that the modal Labour member is a socially concerned current or retired middle class public sector worker in their mid-50s who dislikes being referred to as 'cis' but also thinks you should respect people's pronouns.

So little patience for the people perfectly content riding the tiger of white resentment and nativism while it was helping them push through tax cuts, who now stare at it running loose and feral in the streets and are like, "the left should reflect on how it let things get this far."

Nochmals: Der US-Präsident hat am 2.9.2025 offenbar eine extralegale Hinrichtung von elf Menschen angeordnet und durchführen lassen, schlicht weil er sie des Drogenhandels bezichtigt. Das sollte als eine (weitere) schreckliche Zäsur auf dem Weg der USA in die Autokratie wahrgenommen werden. 1/3

BBC should issue a programme as a form of apology for the edit and in compensation show the whole speech and record of those involved admitting they were incited by the speech.

It’s so transparently obvious that is presence is a corrupting influence. It’s reassuring that the fact this is a very obvious organised stitch up is breaking through to some degree.

Oh no. Who gave SCOTUS the wrong numbers? Will that person be fired? Also: If entering into a tariff regime that would have to be litigated created the possibility of America not being "sustainable" then maybe they were unwise?

A real president does this. Thank you to every veteran who’s worn the uniform and carried the weight for the rest of us — just respect 🇺🇸

The BBC is ours. It's ours to love. Ours to criticise. Ours to shout at when we feel in the mood. And if Farage thinks that the way to win favour with voters is to stand around cheering as Trump takes down the BBC for $1 billion of personal enrichment then he's a bigger fool than anyone thought.

“It’s fine that normal, hardworking people are being dragged into cars by masked men every day because at least we have less confusing signage at our hub airports!”

This is the same Noah Smith who, on arriving in Poland, complained that Warsaw airport doesn't have any escalators, when it has more escalators than the state of Wyoming. I'm not sure he should be allowed to travel unaccompanied; it seems to be too much for him.

Can only conclude that the very online US commentators’ obsession with bashing the UK is the equivalent of a mental comforter to deflect from dealing with things closer to home.

It seems to lil'ol naïve me that the vote winning political stance to take in Trump Vs The Beeb is: holding a club and spattered with Trump's blood
