Today is the 310th day since the deadline to share documents set by the Epstein Files Transparency Act.
House Judiciary Democrats have just released a 50-page report that pulls together years of assault allegations against Trump and his reported connections to Jeffrey Epstein. The report calls for a special counsel to investigate Trump's ties to Epstein.

ICE said Antonio Moreida jumped onto the hood of their vehicle. Now a local police investigation concludes that an ICE agent struck him with his SUV. The routine lying by ICE is the result of the example set by leadership of the Department of Homeland Security.

Mayor Mamdani announcing another access for New Yorkers. You'll have to go to Manhattan, but still. Free. The weather's still nice, so you can enjoy one of those lighted fields after.
Once Upon a Time in Harlem is a film that every New Yorker should see — and this weekend you can, at no cost. We partnered with the filmmakers to offer free screenings this Saturday and Sunday at the Lincoln Center, Film Forum, and Magic AMC in Harlem. Go to on.nyc.gov/seeharlem to reserve a seat.

Important research for these times. Infants typically do not receive measles vax until 1 year. This study shows that any protection they have from their mother wanes by 6 months, leaving them vulnerable. With measles cases surging–this year already has double the cases of last–this is a nightmare.
Measles study in infants at #IDweek; maternal measles antibodies found in newborns, but wanes below neutralizing levels (ie, protection) by 6 months. Since kids get 1st MMR at 1 year, highly vulnerable from 6-12 months. Not a huge deal if measles rare. Terrifying if measles rampant (like now) 😳

HELLo. "Public money is going to the first family's financial interests. [...] It is the duty of the federal government to stand in solidarity with state governments in the event of a natural disaster. The administration should cease its threats to cut disaster funding."
Q: There's a report that FEMA is telling states to prepare to handle disasters on their own. Any reaction? OSSOFF: So the Trump administration is telling folks across the country to prepare to fend for themselves while taxpayer dollars are sent to back Don Jr & Eric's mining interest in Kazakhstan?

Reasonably clear now that Crown Prince Bone Saw was the man behind an industrial espionage caper at Open AI that aimed to grab their essential secrets. www.cbsnews.com/news/ex-open...

Let's pause and remember, again, that Ukraine gave up the third largest nuclear arsenal in the world in exchange for economic aid and security assurances from Russia. Putin's Russia is no one's friend. Nor is Trump's USA. (Horribly, sadly, gut-wrenchingly.) www.armscontrol.org/factsheets/u...

"A hearing about the fate of the East Potomac Golf Links in Washington turned into an icy standoff on Monday as a federal judge went to extraordinary lengths to learn who has been responsible for decisions about the property and whether plans to overhaul it have been kept from the court."
We‘ve seen plenty of judges get angry when the Trump regime defies their orders. What we need to see are judges throwing members of the regime in jail.

when critics of bari weiss say that she is not a journalist, we mean that literally. she does not respect or even appear to understand the values of the profession. everything for her is propaganda. www.semafor.com/article/10/1...
Revisit Biden-era policies? Happy to. The one where Biden's administration used tax dollars to protect American people during a global pandemic, for example.
WELKER: What do you say to voters who say they're struggling & want change? BESSENT: Well, why don't we revisit the Biden-era policies W: Trump has been in office for 636 days, & inflation was at 3% when he took office, it's 3.7% now. At what point does the administration take responsibility?
A tactic that led to such a strong economy that The Economist @economist.com made the American economy their cover story on 19 Oct 2024, saying "The American economy has left other rich countries in the dust." While people got to keep their homes and eat. www.economist.com/leaders/2024...
Marco offering up "we've been asking the Israelis to crack down on that stuff" as if that's the end of the range the US can do about it.
Translation: they will do absolutely nothing about an American journalist getting brutally attacked. They don’t care. They probably enjoyed it. @marcorubio is a bad joke.
