The FBI responded with a statement, attributed to Patel: “Print it, all false, I’ll see you in court—bring your checkbook.”

Really good, independent reporting.
Yashar, get a pair of Siamese cats! Best of both worlds. They're cats that think they're dogs.
One crazy old man gone....dare we hope for another.
I hear ya, but please note that Leon Black left Apollo several years ago subsequent to the Epstein allegations. He does remain a major shareholder in the firm.
'Simmering' tensions? It's a hot boil up here north of the 49th. Never thought I'd ever see so much hatred of the USA in my lifetime and it has nothing to do with hockey.
Lucky for them that the ref missed the too many men on the ice but got our Sam Bennet's high stick right after for a double minor. What a joke. At least we'll be spared the obnoxious USA USA chats for the next 4 years.
Maybe he thinks it's Woke Forest?
Wayne Gretzky -The GREAT ONcE. Good luck to you, Mr.Conway. Sending you best wishes from north of the 49th.
If the last 7 days have shown us anything, it's that our government really believes in a world that is truly Hobbesian all the way down. @dandrezner.bsky.social www.foreignaffairs.com/guest-pass/r...
There are no words left. God speed, America. What a beautiful human.
Unfortunately right now we have to rely on either the Supreme Court or spineless Republicans in Congress to end this shit.
This also proves to every country that whatever “deal” you make with Trump is utterly worthless.
For sure, we have our Maple MAGAts up here (mostly disaffected white folks - quelle surprise), but they are a small minority. What Secretary Bessent has done will only serve to further mobilize the resources of the anti-separatist movement. Oh, and guess how the indigenous communities will vote?
It's all such a sad, sad freak show.
Anything by Eric Larson, but given these times, start with 'In the Garden of Beasts'. He's a fantastic writer.
'Verbally' ? Are you kidding? He's declared economic warfare on Canada and what would you call the threats against Greenland? Sorry, but your description of what's happening perfectly describes the denial of actual reality. Most Americans just don't get it.
It was a good discussion - thank you!
!! Here’s a link to full video of the 60 Minutes segment that Bari Weiss killed last minute, via @jasonparis.bsky.social:

(It was uploaded to the Global TV app in Canada, seemingly by accident, and has now been taken down)
Gosh, this sounds more like a Pitchbot headline.
Why are people still calling him The Leader of the Free World. There's a Free World out there that sure doesn't believe this fiction.
Not to defend Olivia Nuzzi, who broke every rule in journalism and promoted a charlatan to his current position. But it's incredibly telling that she will lose her job, but RFK Jr. gets to stay in his job despite the reports of his drug use, his affairs and his defenestrating of public health.
I agree that she made TERRIBLE decisions, but why are none of these much older men paying any price? Lizza won't be happy until her life is over, and Olbermann, Sanford and RFK Jr. are abject disgraces.
This brilliant article, Tom Nichols, will be quoted in the history books of the future. Well done, sir.
It's utter madness and will get worse, much worse, before it gets better.
If this had been written more than a year ago, we'd have thought it was from The Onion, not PBS News. How times have changed in America. What a freak show.
YES! Thank you so much. I wish more were like you, Mr. Global.
You 2 rock. I tried so hard to get tickets. But, I couldn't get Taylor Swift tics either, so them's the breaks. Love your work!
Good Start
Looking forward to the other half. Sorry.
