Sam Altman is the most dangerous man in Silicon Valley right now. The board that fired him? Replaced. The safety team that questioned his priorities? Dissolved. The nonprofit structure that was supposed to keep mission above profit? Restructured. The employees who wanted to speak out? Silenced.

The willing publicization of some of the more sensitive information pertaining to Donald Trump’s White House ballroom has caused federal prosecutors to wonder if he’s personally editing the court documents before they are submitted. trib.al/vZzQCDY

Yep. And the 25 percent who don’t lack any rational argument for not impeaching him.

The ‘I’m voting for the felon’ crowd burned down any credibility. They either acted under opportunism, delusion, bigotry, or madness.

Paolo Zampolli, the modeling agent who allegedly introduced Melania to Trump in 1998, fathered Ungaro's child. They were engaged in an ugly custody battle. Zampolli leaned on ICE and his Trump connections to DEPORT Ungaro.

Zampolli also allegedly represented Melania when she was a model...

Follow this thread.

Most likely, and of course, all speculation right now, this is why Melania did her 6 min statement today.

Amanda Ungaro was brought here as a 17-year-old model. She flew to NYC on Epstein's private plane.

We can be fairly certain Melania's statement last night was at least partly an attempt to stave off Amenda Ungaro's claims bc AFTER she made it, Paolo Zampolli told the Daily Mail he would back her story under oath.

Americans desperately need an actual working class party: pro-union, Medicare for All, universal basic income, wage increases, pro-alternative energy, pro-family leave, pro-environmental protection, infrastructure repair, progressive taxation…

"Isn’t Melania signaling others in the Trump administration and in Congress that it’s time to abandon ship, that it’s time to remove him from office? It should not have taken Melania Trump to spur this action. But one welcomes any helping hand in our current drama."

Belarus’s parliament has adopted a new law banning “propaganda” of same-sex relationships, of “gender reassignment,” and even of “childlessness.”

The new law creates a climate of fear and perpetuates the escalating state crackdown on LGBT rights.

QUICK: But with the war, the administration thinks it was going after a security issue with Iran, a player that was potentially very close to having a nuclear weapon

BUTTIGIEG: That right there is a huge fail for the White House, because they assured us that the nuclear program was 'obliterated'

We are the ones who insisted that NATO defense obligations be geographically limited to the defense of Europe and North America, because we did not want to be dragged into defending European empires around the world.

Pete Buttigieg: “Inflation has tripled from just one month ago, and it’s higher than when he took office. Not only has Trump failed to deliver on his central campaign promise to make life more affordable — he is actively, directly driving prices up.”
