We are getting an invasion of Venezuela to distract from the Epstein files and the Trump being a pedophile.
okay so reporting by CNN supports the operation being connected to Venezuela, but still no operational decision made yet

I understand why it's preferable to believe that the country is being run by little Gordon Gekkos rather than little Eichmanns, because the little Gekkos can be bought off for the right price, but sorry, I need you to look these people in the eye and realize that they are little Eichmanns

I think the main reason TCW hates the Left is because we think Bari Weiss is a fraud and we hate her. I think his hatred of the Left is centered around his friendship with Bari Weiss.
This paragraph especially!
If I understand him right, he's saying "moral clarity it good" and the right has been utterly immoral so it might sound weird to criticize moral clarity. HOWEVER, because the left is bad [unspecified reasons], "moral clarity is an obstacle to insight." ???

"I'm a rando who prefers to believe that everything is a conspiracy and am happy to tell women that I know better than she does how their literal job works" That a news org makes an editorial decision you wouldn't (or I wouldn't) doesn't mean someone is killing a story on behalf of a powerful person
"I write for the New York Times, and I can assure you that we've never buried stories on behalf of powerful people, many of those powerful people being part of NYT management. We only publish what's fit to print, like Zohran's application to Columbia that was leaked by a white nationalist"

NYT has great writers like Spiers and Bouie, but when I see an email from an NYT reporter saying he knew about Trump and Epstein in 2015, I’m not extending the benefit of the doubt to the most influential paper in America. If NYT would occasionally admit its fuckups, I’d have reason to trust it.
I don't understand why people have to concoct wild conspiracy theories in order to critique the NYT. I say this as someone who writes for them: there is plenty to critique without making up wild scenarios and insisting they're true!

Under no circumstances do you have to hand it to Rod Dreher.
For my money, Rod Dreher — the man who is, somewhat ironically, sounding the alarm about Groypers in @hunterw.bsky.social's piece here — is one of the most bizarre figures in right-wing politics.

Thinking today how homelessness runs through this story, through Epstein's (Virginia Guiffre had been homeless before meeting him), and even through Gaiman's (his nanny was sleeping on the beach when Palmer recruited her, and he used threats of homelessness against another victim).

Do we know Landon told anyone that he was having this convo with Epstein? We do not! But let’s say an editor knew. Then what? At most, it would be the beginning of an investigation. Would Landon be the reporter to do it? Probably not! You see he’s begging Epstein for specifics & doesn’t get them

i remain steadfast in my belief that the most parsimonious explanation for their decisions is they simply did not want to imprison donald trump. it was something they wanted to avoid more than just about anything else. it scared the shit out of them and led them to delay and ignore him far too long

The New York Times sat on publishable info on Donald Trump and Jeffrey Epstein because the Times likes Donald Trump and wants to see him rule us like a king.

Spiers over here trying to get people back on track on hating Ken Martin and the DNC (understandable) and not her employer for dropping the ball on Epstein and helping elect Trump is really something.
Sometimes when I'm critical of what I put under the rubric of "Dem leadership" which includes but isn't limited to elected leadership, party officials, and big Dem organizations and donors, I get nitpicky nonsense of about whether specific constituencies are exempt.

Harry Enten is simultaneously too young and too old to be saying "my goodness gracious" as frequently as he does. A hideous uncanny valley of a catchphrase. Everything about this guy gives me the heebie jeebies.
Enten: "Trump is 39 below water on the Epstein case. 39 points in the negative! My goodness gracious. What Trump has been selling on the Epstein files, the Epstein case, the American people have not been buying at all ... less than half of Republicans are buying it. This is his worst issue by far"
