easy to overlook this detail, but Larry Fink's son appears to have been entangled with a Russian woman (apparently with a very Russian Intelligence-shaped past) who also seems to have been entangled with Musk... and whose women's empowerment charity was headquartered at Epstein's house
I only just realized that Musk's interviewer was Larry Fink, CEO of Blackrock... what an insight into the degenerate rot at the heart of global financial markets.

“ICE aren’t actually fearful of their safety…What they’re fearful of is not being invited to baseball games or not being invited to the pub with their friends. Community exclusion – that’s what they’re fearful of”

“Along with food, Parikh said he is concerned about soda and claimed he always mixes it with alcohol ‘to sanitize it.’” This whole interview is bananas
This @hunterw.bsky.social story about his encounter with one of Trump's paranoid special agents is, in a word, gobsmacking. It includes a Ron Swanson reference that will make @kentremendous.bsky.social shake his head (at least.) If you don't already, support TPM talkingpointsmemo.com/news/meet-th...

A Reuters photographer captured this image of a page from Pam Bondi's "burn book," which she used to counter any questions from Democratic lawmakers during an unhinged hearing today.
