Article has: “The Pashcow letter included a photo of a posterboard-sized check for $22,500, which had been mocked up to appear that it was sent from Trump to Epstein.” Obviously they’re guessing as much as we are, but

Just a photo of Epstein happily holding up a novelty check, made to look like Donald Trump paid him $22,500 in exchange for a “fully depreciated” woman from Epstein.

One of the real underreported things (I think!) about AEW going PIP for breaks is: they're waaaay more DVR proof. If you want to watch the action, the commercials will play in front of eyes. I'd bet that also counts for the money on the ad buy from the Turner side

the whole basis of the legal model of judicial decision making is that you don’t just vote, you give reasons — in part because even bad reasons can either be argued against or act as a constraint on your behavior later. that falls apart if we’re just voting now.

Trump claims crime is down to "virtually nothing" in DC & adds the crimes that are happening are "much lesser things. Things that take place in the home they call crime. You know, they'll do anything they can to find something. If a man has a little fight w/the wife they say 'this is a crime. See?'"

File this in the "systematic problems with immigration law" box. The Victorian-era "Crimes involving moral turpitude" concept has been part of US immigration law for over a century, and it holds that any fraud crime (including passing a $25 bad check) can be grounds for deportation or exclusion.

There is a wagging the dog feeling to dudes in Security Forces — the camo, the giant tac vests, etc. — On The March. It’s what they do. It’s what viewers are used to. It’s been an image on your TV for as long as NCIS has been on the air. It’s normal, and comfortable.

Let's be clear what this image represents. Those skull masks were first popularized on the far right by a very specific Nazi terror movement that began on the pro-terror Ironmarch forums and entered mainstream news with the Atomwaffen Nazi terrorist murders. THAT is the reference here.

This “solo dev” and “only 3 devs” rhetoric is getting truly dangerously out of hand. Investors see this and think “I only have to pay 3 people” and the result is severely overworked and/or underpaid people and a subpar product. We need to stop treating outsourcers and contractors like ghosts.
