‘This is not over.’ Corporate America’s Epstein reckoning gathers steam | CNN Business A growing wave of business leaders has had their careers derailed after the recent release of millions of files linked to convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.

"“The first category is if you lied about it – we’ll call that the Lutnick rule – where you specifically said things that turned out to be lies,” Minow said."

This is peak Eno right here as they're pulling up to the moon. Weightless. Floating. Quietly glorious. #TCMParty #ForAllMankind

Love that record. Always happy to see Tonio K songs.

The liquid guitar in that last scene reminded me that Ben left out Daniel Lanois and Brian Eno's brother, Roger, in regard to the soundtrack. It was always billed as Brian Eno w/ Daniel Lanois and Roger Eno. The three of them made the most beautiful thing with their hands. #TCMParty #ForAllMankind

One thing I hate about all the defenses of Platner is the underlying, deeply dumb and destructive belief that it's all about casting. Wanted: Rugged bearded tell-it-like-it-is oysterman to appeal to the great anxious white center, the holy grail of politics. Further details not of immense concern. >

Rereading THE BUFFALO HUNTER HUNTER @sgj.bsky.social and making notes so I can submit it for eleventh-grade Honors curriculum approval, and these lines are just so damn perfect. (Paperback publishing this summer!) (Also, @igreggreene.bsky.social made an amazing reader’s guide! Thanks for sharing!)

Can't be a good sign (for him) when Trump is even losing his temper with the Fox News reporters...

Great planning.

Oh, so Rick "Tea Party" Santelli is shocked that things went down the tube when all his incompetent, unqualified, racist friends take over.

The Louis DeJoy USPS is a sight to behold. Your item has arrived in Brooklyn. It's Friday. We will get it to you by Tuesday. Thanks!

The Alleged Trump Victim's Claims about Blackmail Are as Important as Her Claims about Rape - emptywheel One day before Jeffrey Epstein suicided, the woman who claimed Donald Trump had abused her told the FBI that Epstein and Trump had spoken about blackmail in front of her.

On the missing Epstein files: It's not JUST that DOJ is still withholding a bunch of pages re allegation he raped a teenager. It's that they only released duplicates (those sent to Ghislaine in discovery), raising questions if the originals still exist.

One of my favorite LINE releases! Miki Yui RULES. Seek out her stuff.

92,000 jobs gone in a single month and the people who spent years screaming about “Biden’s economy” are suddenly very quiet. No pandemic. Just the consequences of reckless leadership.

Happy Virginia Christine's birthday!

Bury him, Conor Lamb.

Top 5 American films of all time. Rad af.

Anti-vaxxers are bad parents. Not vaccinating your child is abuse.

We should eliminate all non-medical exemptions for vaccines.

Sorry, not sorry.

Long live the king, for real.

She's like an old samurai whose great battles are behind her but every once in a while she kills a man with piece of paper just to prove a point

Jade.

As the laid off Middle East News Editor, I concur. Management eliminated the positions of every single staff correspondent and bureau chief in the Middle East.

Nice touch with that Jade tee. :)

Hillary Clinton has more than her share of flaws, but when it comes to "showing congressional Republicans the proper level of contempt" she is flawless.

My god, I can't think of anything worse than an All That Jazz with Richard Dreyfuss in it. #TCMParty #AllThatJazz

A reminder that Harrison Ford is doing some of the best work of his career on Shrinking.
