The Left's secret weapon, as a movement, is that we don't give a crap if MAGA indicts Bill Clinton or Larry Summers or anyone else. Fuck 'em. We're here out of principle, not hero worship. Something MAGA will never understand.

Actually have been expecting Sulzberger in the #EpsteinFiles. It would explain quite a bit about the degradation of the news department not to mention the pivot to non-news businesses. Joe Kahn might turn up as well. Honestly I would be kind of surprised if Brooks, Douthat or Stephens turn up.
You see "Schumer" and "Sulzberger" in there? We all know who Schumer is and Sulzberger is the owner and chairman of the New York Times.
Anything make a bit more sense now?

It's ONLY been 65 years since six year old Ruby Bridges walked through the halls of William Frantz Elementary as the first Black child to attend an all white school. Met with mobs and hate, her bravery and courage helped change the course of history for this nation.

Yet another reason corporate Dems are suspect. Keep an eye out for how fast they kick him out.... or don't kick him out.

NEW: Before the recent Epstein disclosures, Larry Summers was poised to lead the economic policy plank for the Democrats' "Project 2029" effort at the Center for American Progress. He signed off on a housing policy paper CAP was prepping for next week.

The only reasonable conclusion to draw from this is that Epstein had Trump sex crimes on video.

We can theorize all day. We can bicker about [air quotes] DSA, the Left, Blue MAGA, centrism, the DNC or whatever. Fact is, GOP extremists, with corporations funding for reasons of greed, co-opted info delivery local and large. It'll take 10+ yrs of hard work, if possible to build against that.

They also show something else VERY significant: Epstein was not in the least afraid of Trxmp. He held the cards, and they both knew it.

I have come to believe it’s just run of the mill misogyny. Say what you will about policies or even debate whether they’re good people, but Hillary Clinton and Kamala Harris have been pilloried on the front page of the NYT more than Orange Rapist because they are women. Full stop.

Remember, these are the emails they allowed to be released.

Best thread I've seen about Schumer's role/non-role. Others make a similar end point, but in a combative annoying way. At the end of the day, you realize not only that Chuck is one senator, but that the other Dems can take far more initiative such as objecting to unan consent. And they don't.
I don't like to talk about my specific experience much in the Senate because I always prefer to have discussions on arguments alone.
However that being said, let me tell you where I'm coming from with this "all of these people are knuckleheads and Schumer isn't the real problem" thing.

Have followed Julie K. Brown @jkbjournalist.bsky.social since I heard her years ago give an in-depth interview on Epstein. And I do think there's a reason this story surfaced through a woman's tenacity vs. male journo willingness to let it go or worse, to try to profit from the Epstein connection.
all of this, and also @jkbjournalist.bsky.social should have gotten the Pulitzer for her reporting already.
Like I dunno, maybe the reason it took a lady to break open the story of all the men protecting the dude trafficking underage girls is because the male journos were all emailing him making jokes about it?

May the history of the Daily News, when it is written, reflect that upon unanimous ratification of the first contract in more than three decades, the next words uttered in the Zoom call were those of street reporter Kerry Burke: “Okay, I got a homicide. I gotta go.”
