Reuters reached out to everyone that Trump or his subordinates singled out publicly for retribution, and reviewed hundreds of official orders, directives and public records. The result: the most comprehensive accounting yet of his campaign of payback.

on top of everything else, nuzzi has the sensibilities of your most embarrassing friend. a guy alternates between saying he wants her to have his children and ghosting her, and she's wringing her hands trying to figure out if they're really in love

yeah it’s bad that Lizza has been sitting on this for so long but also how cursory and inept was that Vox investigation that not only managed to miss the biggest scandal in the history of American political journalism but affirmatively exonerated her bsky.app/profile/bkel...
So the editor of New York Magazine said there was no bias or ethical problems with Olivia's articles?
Does he still think that?
They should retract all of her stories

Nvidia's next stock crash will be approximately ~70%.
In recent weeks, Nvidia has been under pressure from valuation worries and Michael Burry’s accusation that companies are padding profits by overstating how long Nvidia’s chips will last.

A pizza place in deep blue Capitola might seem like a strange place to meet a Trump supporter. But over the '90s sounds of early Fiona Apple, you can hear whispers that Biden's advanced age is the reason a slice of the Maui Wowie costs $6.50.

Actually, stuff it.
I always had the opinion that what Willis did shouldn’t have had any legal consequences for the case.
I also think what she did showed a lack of judgment and the case would not have been derailed but for her decisions.
The buck stops with Willis, the constitutional officer.

Serious misogynoir. When will anyone learn? Fani Willis’s only failure was OUR failure. The same failure that elected a convicted felon and adjudicated con artist and rapist as President over a qualified black Asian woman.

I am a little tired of being yelled at for this but apparently not tired about: heroin addiction is not RFK’s problem. He’s a sociopath. Most addicts aren’t. Honestly, walk into an NA meeting, grab the first person with a few years to be head of HHS and they’d probably do a better job than Bobby.
This is what happens when you put a privileged, 14 year heroin addict in charge of health. Duh
