https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/gallery/2025/dec/12/jeffrey-epstein-released-photos This isn't safe for work at all. Some of these photos are of toys and other things... Steve Bannon seems pretty connected to Epstein. Dershowitz was pretty connected too and I wonder if this is how he ended...

You did not address what I wrote. I live in New England. I don't have to worry about polar bears. Black bears are more common where I live even if polar bears are stronger. Ergo, the risk of a polar bear < the risk of a black bear for me. Also, if half my neighbors scream Make Black Bears Great...

Both, but why are you focusing on "currently?" If it is some kind of threat assessment, I would counter that numbers in proximity also feeds into risk.

Apparently, CEO of MyPillow, fascist collaborator, and retired crack addict Mike Lindell is going to run for governor of Minnesota. So, now, we can see why this story directed at Walz has developed.

I guess we're lucky that there wasn't a font for them to choose that works best for white male landowners.

Trump says U.S. seized oil tanker off the coast of Venezuela This looks like he's trying to make them implode. He closed the airspace and not allowing trade. This is siege warfare without the violence (yet).
