My colleague Jason Leopold has gotten his hands on a document that is effectively an index of what’s in them.

He describes it here:

this is a must-read, even if it makes you as nauseated as me

we can't function as a democracy if people granted unique powers -- Congress, SCOTUS, media -- abdicate their responsibilities

I'm shocked how the concept of duty has been erased from our social order

A Dead Cat, A Lawyer's Call And A 5-Figure Donation: How Media Fell Short On Epstein
Why did it take some of the nation's biggest news organizations so long to take seriously the accusations against the late Jeffrey Epstein? Allegations about his behavior go back more than a decade.

A mural of the Statue of Liberty covering her eyes in shame was created by Dutch artist Judith de Leeuw. It is in a high population area of immigrants in France…!!!
She said ‘The values that the statue once stood for - freedom hope, the right to be yourself - have been lost for many’…!!!

Laughing in front of cages designed to hold migrants and refugees, many of whom came to this country fleeing extreme violence and poverty, and hoping to raise their children in a more compassionate country. And many of whom followed all the legal procedures to enter the country.

We’ve bombed Iran. And dismantled our joint terrorism task force. And sent a third of the FBI to help ICE. And gutted the National Security Council. And a drunk guy is in charge at the pentagon. And our intelligence allies probably won’t share intel with us. Because people couldn’t vote for a woman.

The US led the way in fighting malnutrition, and USAID provided a miracle peanut paste that brings kids back from the brink -- until now. Starvation is a problem that we can actually solve, but we're now retreating from the fight. Here's what I found in West Africa: www.nytimes.com/2025/06/18/o...

I took this pic of then Vice President Joe Biden in the Oval Office back in September 2015. I’ll never forget how, during the 2020 campaign, he would make a point of saying the press is NOT the enemy of the people. Thinking of President Biden as he takes on this next battle. Godspeed Mr. President.
