Today does give you an overwhelming sense of teams. Ordinary people are marching and cheering in the snow and trying to feed families and do their jobs, while a weird overclass passes billions back and forth, masterminds wars and concentration camps, and assaults women, kids, and anyone who resists

A new statement from Epstein survivors:
"Once again, survivors are having their names and identifying information exposed, while the men who abused us remain hidden and protected. That is outrageous."

Having to confirm that you’re over 18 when you click to open an Epstein file hosted by the US government is a real vibe.

dear jeffrey,
i want to repeat my apologies to you.
we'd met three times, maybe four.
once at the safdie house after the dedication of rosovsky hall.
once in london. and one more time, i don't remember where.
i thought you and your girlfriend genuinely enchanting...but time passed.
and then came your troubles. i felt i should write you, and i didn't.
i am happy you are back among the "free."
YIVO, which is an archive, library, academic center, etc founded in vilna in 1926, moved with its
last hair to new york in 1939. it's an important center of scholarship, and i believe it is worth
much more than the money it raises. the burgeoning of jewish studies in american colleges and
universities would be impossible to imagine without YIVO having been around. it's a constituent
of the center for Jewish studies which is a condominium with five other institution. but YIVO is
the living core and plans much more if it has the money.
we arc asking for as much as people are willing to give...and then a bit more. if $100,000 is too
much how about $25,000 or $50,000. if you don't know how to judge this, i and bill ackman
could come and see you. but i think the thrust of our argument will impel you to give truly a lot.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:tnlhrgmbce34nvpyti46miej/bafkreieg7r6ca3c3qjv57odpdp6aowgt2bjhlxr7hixiqdzcg34sgkbz7q@jpeg)

Probably a good way to get a pedo island invite is to advertise that you’re arriving on a boat full of teenagers
But the new Epstein files show a series of subsequent interactions. That included this email from Lutnick about bringing his family and others to visit Epstein at his private island, Little St. James.

It's near-white out conditions in Chicago as the snow comes down, and tonight's anti-ICE/CBP rally is wrapping up in front of city hall.
But not before the crowd bounces and chants, "I believe that we will win!"

How is this REAL
And Epstein’s like “trust me your wife is not going to like these parties”
So if I’m understanding this sequence correctly, from Thanksgiving to Christmas 2012, Elon Musk was essentially pestering registered sex offender Jeffrey Epstein to throw him a wild party on the island.

OK, so Musk was planning to go to Epstein's island, but it's not like he went there with the intent to go to a wild party or something, it was probably just some business. Excuse me, an email just came in.

Many questions here! But also this whole culture is so weird — when I was an editorial assistant in NYC I just got used to thinking of food delivery as something for other people and never really grew out of it. Like why double your food costs just to avoid walking over there
