🚨NEW: The Israeli Government Installed and Maintained Security System at Epstein Apartment

The Israeli government installed security equipment and controlled access to a Manhattan apartment building managed by convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, according to emails recently released by the Department of Justice. The equipment was installed beginning in early 2016 at 301 E. 66th Street, where former Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Barak stayed for extended periods.

Emails show the security operation at “Ehud’s apartment” remained in place for at least two years, with officials from Israel’s permanent mission to the United Nations corresponding regularly with Epstein’s staff about security arrangements. The unit was owned by a company connected to Epstein’s brother, Mark Epstein, but was effectively controlled by Jeffrey Epstein. Units in the building were frequently loaned to Epstein’s contacts and used to house underage models.

FINALLY time to renew my vehicle registration! I can't believe it's been a whole year since I paid $200 for the absolute privilege of driving the vehicle (that I paid for) on the roads (that I pay for), with the income left over after I give 40% to our moral superiors!

Even if you take the conservative defense of each ICE killing, you’re left with “We haphazardly scaled up a poorly trained police force to storm into neighborhoods that voted against the president, where we antagonize the local population until someone resists arrest, and then we kill them,” which is morally horrendous on top of being an absurd way to do immigration policy.

I’m so fucking tired man. Whatever happens this time, they’re still gonna be out here harassing people, they’re still gonna be out here terrorizing people, and every few weeks, they’re gonna kill somebody again.

And every single time, mfs on here will rise up in full-throated defense, like Karens, finding the tiniest little details to nitpick and defend the innocence of these oafs running around playing pretend cop. “Don’t resist! Don’t call them names! Don’t go out in public!” As if we didn’t live in the Land of the Free.

Frankly, I don’t need to know the details of every new public execution, because even from the beginning it’s all counter to how we do things in this country. It’s counter to a just and fair legal system. It’s counter to values of freedom and our God-given rights. It’s counter to the goddamn Constitution. For fuck’s sake, it’s counter to common sense.

So, we give these random dudes off the street guns and tell them to go harass and kill people? And for what? To defend our country from an “invasion”? Meanwhile these ICE fucks have effectively invaded and terrorized an entire state with their bullshit.

Never thought I’d see the day a government police force of thugs would occupy an American city and kill American citizens and so many people I used to respect would stand up and support it. People like you, so willing to disregard principles for party allegiance, make me sick. It’s un-American and it’s deranged.

I fear none of this is going to get any better, we’ve really crossed the chasm.

[Ryan Grim @ryangrim]

To be clear about what this depicts: An immigration officer threw a woman onto the ground. Alex Pretti, a registered nurse on scene as a legal observer, is filming and goes to help the woman up. He is then pepper sprayed and thrown to the ground for no discernible reason. Many officer surround and assault him; one removes his firearm, which police say appears to have been legally registered. They then execute him with a hail of bullets.

They are, objectively speaking, both cowards and criminals, while Pretti is what we teach people an American ought to be.

This is cool. COURIER has created a searchable database with all 20,000 of the files just released from Epstein’s estate.

Trump's name appears in them more than anyone else, in 1,628 documents.

a theory of mine is that social media has completely broken the mind of Gen Z and millennials when it comes to work

their whole lives they have been told to pursue college, work really hard at their 9-5 job, go above and beyond for their boss, then save some income to hopefully purchase a home and family one day

all the people who followed this path are now watching their savings crumble away due to inflation. homeownership feels out of reach like never before

then they turn over and look at the 21 year olds making millions of dollars posting content on YouTube and TikTok. they are able to live with freedom, not beholden to a corporation, while also getting paid enough to afford everything they want

people see this and start questioning themselves. money doesn’t feel real in an economy where there is so much bifurcation between the have and have nots

the point of a job becomes meaningless. you fail to find purpose in your life anymore. and while these millionaires are the outliers, their content is the one that shows up in your feed over and over again

it is truly detrimental to society and i’m not sure anyone has a real solution to fix it

[Abe @LikeAndBlock]

Yeah I bet this is what happens

[jasper nathaniel @infinite_jaz]

If I am killed in the West Bank, please know that I blame you personally @GovMikeHuckabee. I was set up by the IDF to be attacked by 100 armed settlers. When I sent the embassy the video and asked for protection for me and everyone else in Turmus’ayya, they literally said no.

WHAT AN ENDING HOLY SHIT

[James Melville 🚜 @JamesMelville]

Antoine Moses, a 23-year-old tree planter from Quebec, Canada set a world record by planting 23,060 trees in 24 hours. He’s a real environmentalist, unlike those idiots who block motorways or spill milk in supermarkets.

One of the cool things about Nostr ("Notes and other stuff transmitted by relays", a new decentralized protocol that replaces things like Twitter and Instagram)—beyond censorship resistance—is that you aren't limited to 280 characters.

Find me there.
