SCOOP: So remember Dialog, Peter Thiel's private society that doesn't have a public website and no public list of members? I (along with a number of other journalists) have just been tipped off that embedded in the code of their closed off website there IS what seems to be a list of some members.
This is going to hit all of us if it hasn’t already. In Iowa and other Midwest states, we depend on advance notice of severe weather like tornadoes and derechos. It’s a major step backward and people will die.

I’m so disturbed by some of the trumpstein material released. This is sick, twisted shit. Grape, torture and more. Every single one of the vile perpetrators and those who covered it up need to suffer. Decades of this. There has to be some sort of justice for what these poor babies suffered.
I keep hearing about impeachments. Yet nothing. What’s the status and what are we waiting for?

Every word of this is true. Something is wrong when we allow people to take food away from babies, to take healthcare from seniors, to take life-saving programs from our most vulnerable people. We will push back!!!
