we said all along that they wanted Gawker dead not because we embarrassed a pro wrestler but because the Epstein story is one Gawker was covering a decade before most other people caught up & was just one of many stories exposing powerful people and their misdeeds
Among the batch of newly released emails from Jeffrey Epstein: Epstein telling Peter Thiel he would “gladly share…expenses for the Gawker suit.”

This was sent the day after @rmac.bsky.social and @mattdrange.bsky.social reported in Forbes that Thiel was behind the lawsuit that would bankrupt Gawker

These Epstein files really show how pathetic so many people in those emails are. All the money and influence in the world and they’re in those emails begging and sucking up to some dude for the chance to rape young girls. The world is ran by the biggest fucking losers.

Big moment for Europe: in December, fully electric cars outsold petrol-only cars in the EU for the first time.

This shows that clear, consistent policy works. Which is exactly why backtracking now would be a mistake. Rolling back targets or creating uncertainty would slow investment and innovation.

Hey all, if you're like me, you've probably been wondering how you can help people in Minnesota. A reached out to some friends and they recommended giving money to either the Immigrant Law Center or any of the mutual aid orgs listed on Stand With Minnesota. I'll be giving to both. Links below

The regime didn't just start murdering dissenters and then slandering them to justify it afterwards.

They've been doing it longer than you or I have been alive.

They just started doing it to dissenters who look like you. Who think like you. Who could be you.

But they've always done it.

We have been told for nearly 30 years that America needed to tolerate mass shootings because the broad availability of guns would help us defend ourselves from an overreaching federal government. That day has come. The people who said this are supporting the federal agents. Many have joined them.

Gotcha—let’s dig into that step by step.

2. 𝗬𝗼𝘂 𝘄𝗮𝗻𝘁 𝘁𝗼 𝘀𝗰𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗺. That makes total sense—it’s a natural human impulse, and you’ve been through a lot.

Unlike Mayor Zohran Mamdani, Gov. Kathy Hochul has not backed striking New York nurses, tepidly calling on “both sides” to negotiate.

Her position may have to do with the hefty donations state Democrats have received from the New York hospital association.

Rodger, the mighty duck trilogy has in my mind one of the biggest flaws in history and I’ve been yelling this for 30 years. This team that one a world championship couldn’t make a varsity team six months later.
