U.S. Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick has said he had "limited interactions" with Jeffrey Epstein, but documents show they were in business together as recently as 2014.

Lutnick and Epstein were in business together, Epstein files show
Though the commerce secretary has called his interactions with Epstein as "limited," the two were in business together four years after Epstein's 2008 guilty plea.

No joke: I got angry hate mail today for writing an obituary of a Black woman scientist—because the person felt she did didn’t deserve the recognition.

I swear this clip is not edited. Trump pivots from downplaying the killing of Renee Good and Alex Pretti ("two people out of tens of thousands and you get bad publicity") to in the very next breath claiming "we've been very tough on the waters," leaving Tom Llamas baffled ("the waters?")

Dear Congressional Republicans:
Do something now while you can. This administration must go.
If you do not act soon, it will be too late. If he obstructs the midterms in any way, millions of Americans will march on the Capitol "peacefully" and take care of the problem for you.
Thanks,
America

A UAE investor secretly gave Trump $187 million and his top Middle East envoy $31 million. And then Trump gave that investor access to sensitive defense technology that broke decades of national security precedent.
Brazen, open corruption. And we shouldn't pretend it's normal.

Mussolini closed the Teatro dell’Opera di Roma from 1926-1928; it reopened with new fascist aesthetics. In 1934, Hitler closed the national opera house to “renovate” it. In 1935, Portuguese dictator Salazar closed the national opera house to “renovate” it.

Policy on health is clearly broken - politicized, out of touch, reactive and slow. My recent keynote at the Canadian Biosafety Symposium took a big-picture look at how and why that's happening, and how we can turn things around.
Here's a general-audience version, recorded at the Deep River library.
