If anyone has the stamina, Byrne's nutso thesis is in this Google folder. Why was it approved? He was a protege of Warren Buffett, who he'd met at 13; that can't have hurt. It's hard to know when the crazy began for him. But his crazy hurt people, and hurt the US. 3/

Patrick Byrne, faced with defamation suits for his lies, cannot figure out how to hire a functional lawyer to defend him... but has a PhD in Philosophy from Stanford. (From the same department Peter Thiel graduated from, for those keeping track.) His thesis is as much a mess as his legal team. 1/
I have never heard of a default under circumstances remotely like this—the defendant fired his entire defense team, and new lawyers showed up on the first day of trial, and weren’t admitted in the district and one was literally an accused felon out of bail

🚨 Kudos to Mary Bruce from ABC News for having the guts to ask the porcine POTUS about his family profiteering from his presidency & asking Saudi crown prince about orchestrating the murder of Jamal Khashoggi. 👏

Q: Why wait for Congress to release the Epstein files? Why not just do it now?

TRUMP: It's not the question that I mind. It's your attitude. I think you're a terrible reporter. It's the way you ask these questions. You start off with a man who's highly respected asking him an insubordinate question

BTW, Democrats are looking to @larrysummers.bsky.social about advice on the party moving forward. He also supported Cuomo over Mamdani.

Maybe it's time for this entire class of people to retire permanently from social life. They have money. They'll be fine.

trump's association was with the Miss Universe Organization, which included the Miss Universe, Miss USA, and Miss Teen USA pageants. He owned the organization from 1996 until he sold it in 2015.

HE WAS TRAFFICKING UNDER AGE GIRLS. All roads lead to Russia.

This is so so disturbing. Trump is now pardoning January 6th rioters for unrelated crimes, just to reward them for their violence to keep him in power.

The Republican Party is in the full time business of endorsing and incentivizing political violence. So scary.
