i dunno if i were a member of the press or punditry with a national platform, in the wake of this fascist government attack on Ilhan Omar, i would start asking all kinds of questions about and doing deep investigations into Melania Trump's and Elon Musk's immigration issues

Ms Rachel from the top ropes
From Ms Rachel's account on Threads, she writes, "CORECIVIC, a company that makes hundreds of millions locking up KIDS in immigration detention
has a PAC that's sending campaign checks to Senator Susan Collins of Maine.
Susan Collins chairs the Senate committee that writes ICE's budget.
ICE is CoreCivic's customer.
The company gets paid out of a budget she controls, and it pays into her campaign."

The Talarico nonsense being spread by GOP influencers is a typical republican “scandal” - lots of BREAKING!! And 🚨 but no actual substance. If anyone from the Paxton campaign coordinated with influencers to spread these lies, people should go to prison, and Talarico should sue the fuck out of them.

Here's Google's CEO (or whatever he is) arranging a ride for Brooks through Jeffrey Epstein

A ride for David Brooks to Napa?

JE,

David Brooks is eager to attend the EDGE Master Class Jul 15-17, but he =eeds a plane ride to do it...

> From: David Brooks <

>

> John,

>

> The napa event sounds perfect. I'm writing about Nowak's book in my ext column but I'm afraid my Newshour

obligations mean I have to be in =c that Friday night.

> It's a shame because those guys are my heroes.

> David

I wrote back to mention that several of the attendees fly in private =ets and his response;..."If per chance somebody is flying via DC, in hat case I'd be happy to go."

It's a very good thing that the most influential columnist in America is =ushing science and scientists on a regular basis.

Here his NYT column =oday in which he talks about Masrtin Nowak, Jonathan Haidt, among thers:

=ttp://www.nytimes.com/2011/05/17/opinion/17brooks.html?_r=1&partner=r=s&emc=rss. It's also important (to me, at least) that he's become =DGE's biggest fan and booster.

So if it's a possibility for you, it would involve a one-way trip, =etting David from DC to SFO or Napa, Friday Jul 15 after NewsHour. (The =eekend begins with a Friday dinner but the classes begin Saturday =orning).

Let me know.

Best,

JB
