Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez Steps Onto a Wider Stage 6 MIN READ Kellen Browning Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez of New York took office in 2019 as a left-wing agitator. But she has recently emerged as something new: a sought-after leader within the Democratic Party.

What the Times doesn't ask, but what even the most cynical and jaded reader might still want to know, is: How the heck can that happen? We are all very used to the ways in which our governments offer incentives to "job creators," and that even without these incentives the iron law of capitalism insists such "job creators" earn rent from the money they invest in purchasing workers' labor and physical infrastructure. But these investments were never made in a terminal that was never built, by a "company" which is little more than a paper shell around the development sublease itself; there was never any economic production from which the owners of capital could claim their share. How, then, can a portion of what Oakland residents will have actually paid in taxes for work they will have actually done-economic production that will have actually occurred-be claimed by the sublessors of an unbuilt terminal, for the fantasy of profits they might one day have accumulated but didn't? And why is it a judge in Kentucky, bankruptcy or district court, the one who will decide a question of seeming existential import to the budget of a city on the Pacific Coast?

In 2023, an Epstein victim told The Wall Street Journal that Epstein had promised to get her an audition with Ratner if she dressed up as Snow White, but it never materialized. Ratner said at the time that he had never met Epstein and threatened to sue the Journal if he was linked to the sex offender. In an email thread released this weekend, a similar exchange unfolded between Epstein and a person whose name was redacted. In June 2010, Epstein wrote: "brett ratner, is going to film a big movie,, Snow White,, i would love to take photos of you in a snow white costume. you can get it from the costume store." The person replied: "Will get it!"

NEW YORK, NY, Feb 3 (Reuters) - Elon Musk's flagship artificial intelligence chatbot, Grok, continues to generate sexualized images of people even when users explicitly warn that the subjects do not consent, Reuters has found. After Musk's social media company X announced new curbs on Grok's public output, nine Reuters reporters gave it a series of prompts to determine whether and under what circumstances the chatbot would generate nonconsensual sexualized images.

Chart of Estimated ICE Detainees flown out of Minneapolis St. Paul per day, from November 10, 2025 to February 6, 2026. It indicates fewer than 25 flights per day, with an occasional uptick to 50 or 60, all prior to January 5, 2026 - at which point there is a large jump from over 100 per day to as many as 200 to 250 flights per day. Towards the end of January 2026, the flights go down to around 50 per day and then fewer than 25 per day closest to February.

Based off the newest tranche of emails and texts released by the Justice Department this weekend, Epstein, at the very least, believed that he was orchestrating the downfall of the global order in the 2010s. In June 2016, he emailed venture capitalist, early Facebook investor, and Palantir founder Peter Thiel, writing, "Brexit, just the beginning." He then laid out the most succinct mission statement we currently have for what Epstein was trying to accomplish. "Return to tribalism," he wrote. "Counter to globalization. Amazing new alliances. You and I both agreed zero interest rates were too high, and as I said in your office. Finding things on their way to collapse was much easier than finding the next bargain."

Based on the emails to which we currently have access to, populist politics, online disinformation, cyber warfare, and cryptocurrency were all just scaffolding for his work as a financier and sex trafficker. A way to destabilize the global order, make connections with the world's elites, and continue enriching himself and preying on vulnerable young girls. Reading through his messages, it's clear that he was someone who was learning to speak the language of social media and far-right populism at the same time everyone else was.

"Attendance at Latino churches in Minnesota is down 80 per cent because people are afraid to come out. But half of my congregants are born in the U.S, and they are still afraid to come out. That is not just immigrants this is affects the entire community."

WASHINGTON- A U.S. intelligence official has alleged wrongdoing by Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard in a whistleblower complaint that is so highly classified it has sparked months of wrangling over how to share it with Congress, according to U.S. officials and others familiar with the matter. The filing of the complaint has prompted a continuing, behind-the-scenes struggle about how to assess and handle it, with the whistleblower's lawyer accusing Gabbard of stonewalling the complaint. Gabbard's office rejects that characterization, contending it is navigating a unique set of circumstances and working to resolve the issue. A cloak-and-dagger mystery reminiscent of a John le Carré novel is swirling around the complaint, which is said to be locked in a safe. Disclosure of its contents could cause "grave damage to national security," one official said. It also implicates another federal agency beyond Gabbard's, and raises potential claims of executive privilege that may involve the White House, officials said. The complaint was filed last May with the intelligence community's inspector general, according to a November letter that the whistleblower's lawyer addressed to Gabbard. The letter, which was reviewed by The Wall Street Journal, accused Gabbard's office of hindering the dissemination of the complaint to lawmakers by failing to provide necessary security guidance on how to do so.

Bryce Nickels @Bryce_Nickels. 12h 6 yrs ago today, on Feb 1, 2020, a group that included Anthony Fauci, Francis Collins, Jeremy Farrar, Eddie Holmes, Kristian Andersen, Robert Garry, Andrew Rambaut, Ron Fouchier, Marion Koopmans, and Christian Drosten came together to discuss how to mislead the public about the origin of SARS-CoV-2. Nate Silver @NateSilver538 Jul 21, 2023 Replying to @NateSilver538 Let's start by 1) retracting the "Proximal Origins" paper; 2) having scientists like you (i.e. people sympathetic to the natural origins case) call out Andersen et al for their gross misconduct. Then we might have the semblance of an honest discussion. 34 530 1.7K 339K LandoNesta @LandoNesta66 (photo of a noose) 4:17 PM Feb 1, 2026 137 View

And there may be practical political considerations, as well. Diller is a longtime critic of Trump and a prominent Democratic donor exactly the kind of person Trump doesn't want owning CNN. As one media exec told me last night, an attempted Diller-led takeover of CNN would be a non-starter because "everybody understands that M&A goes through the Oval Office right now."

The unusual situation of the U.S. having to import the commodity it is the biggest exporter of on a global level has its explanation in the Jones Act, which the industry has been grumbling against for years. The Jones Act effectively bans the trade in LNG between U.S. ports because it mandates that all trade between local ports must be executed using U.S.-flagged vessels. There are no U.S.-flagged LNG carriers.

Attorney General Pa... 32m ... MINNESOTA ARRESTS - I am on the ground in Minneapolis today. Federal agents have arrested 16 Minnesota rioters for allegedly assaulting federal law enforcement people who have been resisting and impeding our federal law enforcement agents. We expect more arrests to come. I've said it before and I'll say it again: NOTHING will stop President Trump and this Department of Justice from enforcing the law.

This case squarely presents the issue of whether the United States Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has violated provisions of federal statute and longstanding agency practice by implementing a policy that involves arresting and detaining individuals who are lawful refugees in Minnesota. These individuals were admitted to the country, have followed the rules, and are waiting to have their status adjusted to lawful permanent residents of the United States.
