AWKWARD
A month ago, NYT columnist David Brooks wrote a column decrying the media and political fixation on the Epstein story. This afternoon, House Democrats released a new tranche of photos of an event that Brooks attended with Epstein.

Not a financial genius. A criminal. A conman. A swindler. And, unfortunately, a very successful one.
Yup. This is THE financial story of Epstein.

Ladies and gentlemen: meet the new Nick Clegg
Hi, some personal news - I’m changing job. I recently asked myself the question: what’s the most exciting and promising company in the world right now? The answer I believe is OpenAI. So it’s a privilege to be going to work for OpenAI as managing director and head of OpenAI for

Are you insane? I'm in the road on days like this. You ride in that you're going to slip over before you hit the next block.
Even unplowed and icy you can see riders use the protected bike lanes. The city needs to do more to keep them clear to help keep bikers safe after bad winter weather.

The insane model of letting developers build luxury blocks with something like 20 percent 'affordable' units is so utterly broken it needs to be thrown out. NYC should borrow, build it themselves for working / middle class people.
Finally, someone smart says the obvious ... NYC builds boatloads and boatloads and boatloads of housing. More than most American cities combined. Why doesn't that make housing cheaper? For the very reason that NYC builds the housing: it is built to meet new demand by the new top

Caveat maybe. Lobster 100 percent. But Calibri?
WASHINGTON, Dec 9 (Reuters) - U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio ordered diplomats to return to using Times New Roman font in official communications, calling his predecessor Antony Blinken's decision to adopt Calibri a "wasteful" diversity move, according to an internal

What the actual fuck
Right now, Instacart is quietly running experiments on millions of us while we shop for groceries online. They are trying to figure out exactly how much they can get away with charging you for breakfast cereal, lunch meat, pasta, and everything in between. How do I know? 1/9

This is intriguing. I've always wondered why the SDNY investigation into Epstein's associates went nowhere. At the very least Sarah Kellen, described as his top lieutenant, should be in court. I'm baffled she continues to be free.
DOJ was actively working with survivors for years in an investigation into Epstein’s co-conspirators in the SDNY office. After Trump took office, they were ordered to send all of their case files to Washington. The case was then closed. Read Raskin’s letter to Pam Bondi: 1/3

This would be AMAZING
If she wants to be useful, she can mandate full public transparency on all signed residential leases. We should know exactly what all our neighbors are paying and know the # and location and duration of empty units to negotiate with actual information.

As ever, JKB with a revealing angle
NEW: (gift): While Jeffrey Epstein’s friendships with billionaires, politicians and royalty have been well-documented, the newly released documents reveal the close relationship he appeared to enjoy with two journalists: Wolff and former New York Times reporter Landon Thomas Jr.

Ladies and gentleman, the future of the Democratic party (?)

Out of all the many things Eric Adams has done, this could be the most foolish
