Good morning. The President of the United States was in the middle of the most serious child sex trafficking ring of the last quarter century.
He is referenced not a dozen times in the case files. Not 100 times. Not 1,000 times. He’s referenced 38,000 times.

U.K. might lose a prime minister because a guy who worked for him knew another guy who hung out with Epstein. Meanwhile the U.S. opposition party is telling our President, who was Epstein's best friend, that his secret police should get better training so their public street murders look less messy.

Trump came into his second term eager to be tough on protesters, picked a DefSec who would deploy troops against civilians and built a DHS that picked fights with Democrats and the public.
Invoking the Insurrection Act wouldn't be an unfortunate development for him. It would be an intended one.

Opinion | Trump is close to unleashing the state violence he's always wanted
Philip Bump: The president suggested on Thursday that unrest in Minneapolis might prompt him to invoke the Insurrection Act. He’s wanted to do that for years.

It’s genuinely wild that the United States spent decades building an elaborate rules-based international order which de facto cemented its permanent status as the dominant global hegemon, sustained by ideology rather than might, and now is just blowing it all up for literally no reason

I wonder if the United States can learn anything from the last time a major industrialized country decided to isolate itself from the rest of the world?

A longer thread about our 8-1/2-day hike across the Sierra Nevada in 9/25. We started at Mineral King in the W and finished at Shepherd Pass trailhead in the Owens Valley on the E side. So no way out but through! Luckily we both have family members in the area who were kind enough to give us rides.

the thing about Trump and Putin meeting is that Russiagate was basically entirely correct and the fact that the media bought Bill Barr's Mueller Report cover letter saying "he didn't do it" hook line and sinker remains a national disgrace

So many hundreds of thousands of words of ink, so many countless hours wasted, explaining how this man was secretly savvy, and it turns out he’s just dumb as a rock, clueless about basic economics, and driven by a malicious paranoia that conniving foreigners are ripping us off
Trump: "I spoke to a lot of leaders -- European, Asian, from all over the world. They are dying to make a deal, but I said 'we're not gonna have deficits with your country' ... to me a deficit is a loss. We're gonna have surpluses or at worst we're gonna be breaking even."
