Importing over from Twitter this shirt my wife made for our kids. It was made for my daughter when she was one year old. She's grown out of it, but it now fits my one year old son.

The New York Times is using passive voice to protect pedophiles now.
A teenager in Florida with a homeless parent wanted money for braces and ended up having sex for money with powerful men, setting off a chain of events that would have a dramatic impact on her life and help upend the political career of Representative Matt Gaetz. nyti.ms/49PSkL9

Excited to start a completely unprovoked war to distract from the President being a pedophile. What a great country.
Pete Hegseth announces Operation Southern Spear.

There doesn’t seem to be reporting yet on what this means. But I assume it’s not good.

More than anything else, powerful men - like the ones who run the NYT - believe in the legitimacy of power itself. Because if it isn’t legitimate, they have to start asking hard questions about the world and themselves.

I think there are a number of people employed at the New York Times -- certainly not all of them, but many! -- who simply do not grasp how badly the paper's credibility has been shaken over the past few years, along several different axes, and for multiple different reasons

This is a newspaper that published numerous stories about a 17 year old from Uganda checking a box on a college form that said “African American”
The emails that you’re seeing now are news in themselves, but that’s because of how they’re coming out—a congressional committee released them—& the context in which they’re being viewed. A guy emailing a reporter talking about old girlfriends or saying someone is “dirty” is not a whole news story.

My prayers for his downfall have been taken too literally.

Epstein isn’t the one they were protecting.
I've already said I think Landon should have been fired. But the idea that the NYT knew he was too chummy with Epstein and asked him for money and were fine with it is just wrong and dumb. And i cannot fathom what possible incentives people arguing this think the NYT would have to protect Epstein

if there's one thing we've learned from all of this it's that there's essentially nothing that will keep elites from protecting other elites. it really is us against them here.

We need to purge the ranks of mainstream journalism and start from scratch. It is amazing how many of them think that covering this shit up was correct, actually.

The top story on NYT right now is "Trump re-opens government"
Chat, is it good when you’re being ruled by an increasingly senile monster, so depraved he’s described by his pal, Jeffrey “Child Molester” Epstein, as “evil beyond belief”?

Why again did the NYT sit on all of this?
Wow.

Jeffrey Epstein writing about Trump in 2018:

"He feels alone and is nuts!!! I told everyone from day one. Evil beyond belief. Mad, and most thought I was speaking metaphorically. It's obvious he could crack. Stormy Daniels? Lies after lies after lies."

Genuinely, if this is your takeaway, no one should be trusting you in this field!
The Times had a corrupt reporter that it benched and then fired, when it found out he was soliciting Epstein for a donation and otherwise behaving inappropriately with a source.

That seems to be it? Unless more comes out there is a lot of hyperventilating on here that is misplaced.

So many connections between Jeff Epstein and the NYT! Holy shit man.
This story by @davidfolkenflik.bsky.social about Landon Thomas, former NYT reporter now appearing in the latest email tranche, soliciting a $30k contribution from Jeffrey Epstein?

To recap: Jeffrey Epstein offered a NY Times reporter photos taken in Epstein's kitchen of Donald Trump and girls in bikinis *and* implored the NYT reporter to put this information in the public discourse in 2015

What did the NY Times editors know about this offer?

My god (sorry I’m late on a bunch of this stuff. But wow!)

According to this NYT report, the head of the FBI and the Attorney General are holding meetings *in the Situation Room* with GOP lawmakers they are trying to pressure to rescind their votes to release the Epstein info. This is madness.

both political parties are “the elites” in a system designed to make it extremely difficult if not virtually impossible for non-elites to gain enough traction to upend the system
The Epstein story gets a something that is tearing at the heart of the electorate: elite impunity. The idea that wealthy and powerful people can do terrible things *at scale* and face no consequences for them. Whatever political party actually stops it could rule the country for a generation.

The Clinton campaign in 2016 definitely knew about all of this. They just didn't use it as a line of attack because Bill Clinton did all of the exact same shit with Epstein that Trump did.

Also, the email dump today proves that the Obama administration knew about all this.

I hate everything

Important to understand the Epstein stuff and the fascism and the corruption are, in a lot of ways, really all the same story from different angles: powerful men who can and do abuse vulnerable people around them because they can, and because systems of elite accountability catastrophically failed
