Trump owes more than $100 million in unpaid taxes, so this is just a giant free check he gave to himself with taxpayer dollars

Yep. Earlier this year I was interviewed by Sharyn Alfonsi of 60 Minutes about my Epstein investigation. Subsequently, CBS pulled the segment and fired the reporter. The MAGA buyout of media is aiding the Trump administration’s Epstein cover up.
The New Republic@newrepublic.com · 2d agoBanks permitted millions in suspicious transactions tied to Epstein—and former 60 Minutes correspondent Sharyn Alfonsi had the story months ago. But the report would never air. trib.al/ZShZlIS
I love that AI companies are all like "we just have a marketing problem" when regular people are having AI experiences like this all over the place every single day
Bill Grueskin@bgrueskin.bsky.social · 2d agoGotta love the “or stocks” part. Like Gemini realized its first answer was nuts so it tried to wedge in a better one.
Fires have forced some 67,000 people to evacuate and destroyed at least 700 buildings. A man has been charged with setting one of the blazes.
Capital One has asked a federal judge to dismiss a lawsuit from the Trump Org. over the closure of hundreds of bank accounts in 2021, arguing that the shutdowns were the product of a monthslong anti-money-laundering review — not retaliation for the Capitol riot, as the Trump businesses have claimed.
Booker: "Ghislaine Maxwell is sitting in the lowest possible confinement after giving no information that helped us get one more investigation started and has been silent, and the man responsible for that we're about to make the attorney general of the US ... this is farcical."
When Whitehouse is on, he's on. This is a flamethrower.
Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · 2d agoWhitehouse: "Today I think is a sad and embarrassing day for this committee as it looks like on a party-line vote we are going to advance out of this committee probably the most discreditable person ever to seek the office of attorney general. Let's start with the Epstein files ... "
Whitehouse: "The last Q I'm left with is what's left of this committee? What's left when we don't demand straight answers? How many times has this DOJ been asked what became of the $50k the FBI reported it handed to Homan? ... our Republican colleagues see no evil, hear no evil, and speak no evil"
“Tillis and Cornyn caved even though they have literally nothing to lose,” says Chris Hayes. “At the national level, there really are no ‘good’ Republicans under Donald Trump.”

Absolutely unbelievable how solar power has taken off worldwide during the Hormuz oil crisis. You don't have to hand it to him, but Trump may have done more to finally kick off a global civilization of effete librul solar users than anyone else in the West

Justin Baragona@justinbaragona.bsky.social · 2d agoTrump: I was disappointed with Jeanine Pirro. Really disappointed with Jeanine Pirro. She folded like an umbrella. And people get away with things. It’s a disgrace.
What this means is that Trump has stolen an estimated $100mm from US taxpayers by avoiding the pending audit of his filed returns. www.bloomberg.com/news/article...
