The tiny nation of Palau, where two seasons of Survivor were filmed, has agreed to take 75 migrants for $7.5 million. They have not been charged with crimes and will be put to work filling labor shortages. Now you really are on Survivor.

Ding,ding! We have a winner. National Archives reported missing documents and that classified documents were inappropriately handled to the FBI. The NA spent months trying to get Trump to return docs and then contacted the FBI when a batch was returned and classified docs were mixed in.

Speaking as someone who just wrote a book on the Manhattan Project, I can assure you that refugee immigrants were the *entire* reason the US mastered the atom first. The most chilling part of writing my book was reading about them fleeing fascism … abroad. www.doomsdayscenario.co/p/fleeing-on...

damn. I just searched and the piece I wrote for them years ago about domestic violence and Title IX is gone
Hello repro writers from the mid to late 20 teens - I just discovered Cosmopolitan at some point pulled almost every politics/repro story from the 5 years I wrote for them offline (except two, which they put under someone else's name and gave me "additional reporting" which it very much was not)

Ask yourself: If Donald Trump was a Russian asset, what would he be doing differently?
If your answer is “nothing,” then ask yourself this:
If the US President is a Russian asset, what should *I* be doing differently?

Trump: "Russia wants to see Ukraine succeed. It sounds a little strange but President Putin was very generous in his feeling toward Ukraine succeeding, including supplying energy, electricity and other things at very low prices."

Julie K. Brown is a reporter for the Miami Herald who did groundbreaking work on Epstein beginning in 2018, including groundbreaking work on the disgusting coverup by Alex Acosta.
Her travel itinerary was released with some of the Epstein files. It appears the DOJ was monitoring her in 2019.

Every single time Trump has a meeting with Zelensky, Putin calls Trump the day before and Trump’s position in the Zelensky meeting then mirrors the Russian position. The talking points are the same, with all the same lies. It’s a simple playbook for Putin and it works every time.

Here's the thing: People talk. White House reporters know what's behind the IV infusions. They're just not reporting it to the public.
The President of the United States appears to be getting regular IV infusions, the public doesn’t know anything about it, & the DC media evidently doesn’t care.
We are months into the mystery of Trump’s hands, the White House is lying, & I’ve seen a grand total of one serious news story about it.

Trump looked pretty rough today -- note that both of his hands are discolored
