I’m kinda thinking that any national security secrets that would be disclosed by the release of full and unredacted Epstein Files are not worth protecting.

May Viola Ford Fletcher’s memory be a blessing to her loved ones & a lesson to us all.
Ms Fletcher did not get the justice for her community that she sought (reparations for Greenwood), and she had nightmares for the rest of her life.
I hope she rests in the peace she never quite found in life.

The EPA will approve two new pesticides containing “forever chemicals” and relax a reporting rule for companies who make products with forever chemicals.
The moves come after a $60 million lobbying blitz from the forever chemical industry.
Where is the MAHA outcry?

Hope this doesn’t shock anyone but it appears the elected and appointed members of the Executive Branch of the US federal government might be more than a little incompetent at their jobs.

Holy shit. So Elon decides it would be nice to know what region of the world people are posting from. So they add that little feature.
2 hours later they figure out that many Trump supporters with millions of followers are posting from other countries. Surprise!
That "feature" is now gone.

Drug companies have hired over 500 lobbyists this year to gut the Inflation Reduction Act's drug price negotiation provisions.
They outnumber public interest advocates more than 20 to 1.
We must get money out of politics and end Big Pharma's deadly greed once and for all.
