The Washington Post editorial board decided the Epstein files have “no public interest” before even seeing them. That’s a stunning position for any newsroom to take. Praising Clay Higgins as the lone ‘no’ vote, too? No wonder no one trusts legacy media. Absolutely disgusting.

I have a friend who prefers to stay anonymous who gives this amazing talk in non US (but allied) countries about how long their internet will -really- function if they lose all comms with American data centers and it’s… phew. It’s a thing. Some resilient ones will last a few weeks before […]

Just so we're clear, the DOJ is fighting AGAINST the California redistricting effort WHICH VOTERS APPROVED, but is fine with the Texas redistricting that occurred WITHOUT voter input. The corruption is real folks.

Equally remarkable was how quickly Attorney General Pam Bondi acquiesced to his demand, even though four months ago the Justice Department formally declared that nothing in the Epstein files warranted further investigation. That about-face, as much as any action Ms. Bondi has taken this year […]

I’ve been testing a theory: many people who are high on #ai and #LLMs are just new to automation and don’t realize you can automate processes with simple programming, if/then conditions, and API calls with zero AI involved. So far it’s been working! Whenever I’ve been asked to make an AI flow […]

In Signal chats, the CBP agent boasted to colleagues: “I fired 5 rounds and she had 7 holes. Put that in your book boys.” If he felt comfortable enough celebrating the shooting of an American citizen, it speaks to a irredeemable organizational culture. donmoynihan.substack.com/p/whos-threa...
