Etymology note: The word pale in the phrase “beyond the pale” has an archaic meaning of a spiked fence around a camp. Thus if something is beyond the pale, it’s out of bounds.

I'm quite sure we'll never know. Business dealings could = plenty of evidence. Or not. But it's the sum total of incidents that suggests something's off. Like 2 Epstein-connected modeling scouts, Jean Luc Brunel and Daniel Siad, both with the authorities closing in on them, both dying suddenly.

“Go slow” or “go slowly”? Flat adverbs look just like adjectives—and for a few, adding -ly changes the meaning entirely. #AmEditing #Grammar Read my post now: zurl.co/5ESLo

When Adverbs Fall Flat - Erin Brenner
We're taught from a young age that adverbs end in –ly and modify verbs. This is correct, however, adverbs are more complicated than the rule implies.

Happy National Black Dog Day! Can you believe that black (and dark-colored) dogs are less likely to be adopted than lighter-colored ones? It's a real thing called Black Dog Syndrome. 🤯 But just look at these mutts! They didn't get the memo that they're not cute or adoptable.

Today, @whitehouse.senate.gov and I reintroduced the End Tax Breaks for Dark Money Act to close the loophole that lets billionaires dodge capital gains taxes while funneling wealth into dark money groups. We shouldn’t reward billionaires for buying our elections.

Dark money has exploded, from $5 million in 2006 to nearly $2 billion in the last election. Billionaires already have outsized power over our politics. They shouldn’t get a tax break for secretly bankrolling our elections, too.
