You can't spell jealousi without AI. Now you know.

As far as I know, you're both right. The 2022 stuff was for the Feeing Our Future scandal, whereas this is more daycare and other health/care related fraud. BTW my DOJ friend (who resigned somewhat out of protest earlier this year) was the one leading the press releases for the Feeding Our Future scandal... we were out to dinner one night in downtown Minneapolis and he was hinting that he was in town for a major fraud bust, which it was (and still is).

Too late, I asked it. And it came up with TARS, which makes a lot of sense. Welcome home, TARS! [image: 1767151147839-e760cd72-f04d-4a9a-9b27-82abf434463c-image-resized.png]

Very few crimes pay much. The trick is knowing when to get in and get out. Full time crime is a sure ticket to jail.

No idea who Sanders was/is so I looked him up on Wiki. Yeah, he would for sure fit the profile.

@jon-nyc said in The Epstein File: Or maybe nothing like that? I don’t know the scope of the redaction problem but with millions of pages surely not everyone did it wrong. Weird, a small subset of the millions of pages isn't how they are talking about it in the giggly twitterverse. At least, not the small subset of the giggly twitterverse we're blessed with here on TNCR. But maybe when you say "nothing like that", you meant the bit about the abundance of honor and integrity in the Biden DOJ which can be assumed to have been leak-proof against any arbitrarily juicy details about Trump and Epstein. I agree that maybe it's probably nothing like that.

I guess Russia funneling money to maga media pundits is something we want more of. https://x.com/willsommer/status/2005811949792104605?s=46

I mean, if you look around, most people are fat.

It feels like only a matter of time before Omar is officially connected. Her husband’s company has been scrubbing their website…

And I hate guided tours. Much too slow and boring. It’s like actually reading a self help book. 300 pages that could easily be condensed to a one pager.

@Tom-K said in A Christmas Message: Reading that Trump message after being away for a month from paying attention to any news or headlines or discussions of politics and it does come as a cold slap in the face that DJT just might be really really crazy. When I was in the middle of the news cycle day to day I guess I might have dismissed that as, "oh, that's just Trump." But as an isolated stand alone Christmas greeting from the most powerful man in the world those little paragraphs are kind of scary. Just sayin'. Funny...I was offline for about 3-4 days and I also had temporarily forgotten how insane he is. It does further prove my very selfish but realistic point that 99% of what you see in the news has absolutely zero effect on your life.

Merry Christmas, LD. A bit late but I've been away from the internet for a bit. We had a nice day... with kids 7, 5, and 2, I have been living in unpackaging toys hell...batteries, unclipping tightly packaged toys, setting up some electronics, setting up even more hot wheels tracks. Honestly I don't mind it (other than the very loud noise of all 3 kids asking for something at the same time) but I know their youth and excitement is fleeting in life, so I enjoy it. I also enjoy a very subtle pair of "noise reducing" (almost invisible) ear plugs. It's called "Loop", I think. It cuts the volume of noise down about 50% which I cannot describe how much it helps me avoid being an overstimulated dad with a headache.

The EU cannot really be compared to the US because most of the power still resides within the countries and not the EU (e.g., defense). Which means that the EU commission can also not be blamed for that many things. Thta said, what that person says is mostly harsh but true in my opinion.

She talked about gripping my shaft.

I mean, piracy is actually a respected thing there.

Hotdogs/pretzles, strange halal meats, roasted nuts, and Latinos with fruits, though the latter not so much in midtown.

A life well lived. Like him or not he was there to do his best for what he believed in and he did just that. God bless him.

@mark From what I understood on the Hazardous History episode it did contain a radioactive element. Wikipedia appears to confirm it: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gilbert_U-238_Atomic_Energy_Laboratory
