Rep. Jamie Raskin after viewing the Epstein files:

“There’s no way you run a billion-dollar international child sex trafficking ring with just two people committing crimes, Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell. No way. It doesn’t work like that.

The Department of Justice has been in coverup mode for many months and has been trying to sweep the entire thing under the rug."

We are in a multipolar world, a multilateral world, where the great powers, Russia, China, the United States of America, are finding their equilibrium through panic, fear, greed, & just the pursuit of all of the middle powers."

"Mark Carney’s speech at Davos yesterday really is worth your time. It made some of the front pages today but the news cycle moves so fast that it’s already yesterday’s news. Part of the challenge of this moment - and I believe the job of journalists - is to focus on the signal, not the noise. And if you have time to take in one thing properly, this week, I’d suggest it’s this."

I remember the murder of Martin Luther King Jr., of course. I was a senior in high school when it happened. A senior in a small (some 25,000) but very wealthy oil town in south Arkansas, in a deep-South part of the state near the Louisiana border…. My father was a Louisianan whose parents moved to south Arkansas during the oil boom to find good-paying jobs.

2) The US has nothing to gain by ‘owning’ Greenland. Zero.

3) No one wants us there. Zero.

4) Greenland is smaller than you think. But the distances and remoteness are larger.

5) The whole idea of taking over Greenland would appall the founders of our country.
