I'm blown away by this EXCELLENT piece of @CNN reporting. This journalist @katie_polglase demonstrates how to conduct interviews with Epstein associates. She had this guy sweating, because she did her homework. Bravo. (Worth getting through the ad to watch.)...cnn.com/2026/06/11/world/vid…

Last night, I made a simple request on X. I asked if anybody visiting Arlington National Cemetery for Memorial Day would stop by Alan’s grave and leave a photo for our family. What happened next honestly caught me off guard. By this afternoon, dozens of Americans from all walks of life had made the walk to Section 60 to visit SSG Alan W. Shaw. Veterans. Families. Complete strangers. People who had never met Alan, but chose to honor him anyway. For one day on social media, people put aside the constant noise and negativity and came together for something bigger than themselves. My notifications filled with photos, kind messages, prayers, and stories from people honoring not just Alan, but so many of our fallen heroes. I don’t think people fully understand what moments like this mean to Gold Star families. The fear is never just losing them. It’s losing them slowly over time as the world moves on and fewer people remember their name. But today showed me that Alan will never be forgotten. After years of watching social media reward some of the worst parts of humanity, today gave me a reminder that the good is still out there too. Thank you to every single person who stopped by to visit Alan today, said his name, shared his story, or took a moment to honor the fallen. This right here is the America Alan knew and loved enough to fight and die for. And today, y’all showed us all that it’s still here and it’s still worth fighting for. 🇺🇸

Remembering Alan Shaw today.

The Pope's humanist manifesto does something really interesting; not only does he call for new regulations and guardrails, but he also calls out what he describes as the "anti-human vision" pervasive in the tech world. Human limitations, he argues, are not bugs in our code to be fixed or optimized. They're at the core of love, wonder, community, the shared vulnerability of being human. charlottealter.substack.com/…

"Police" did NOT look the other way. The Palm Beach police brought the case to the state attorney after a thorough investigation. It was the state attorney who rejected their efforts to charge Epstein with sexual battery and other crimes. Lawmakers constantly get this wrong, and it indicates they didn't do their homework. @Rep_Stansbury"

Jane Franklin—Benjamin Franklin’s sister—got married when she was 15 and gave birth to 12 children before she turned 40. “She became a wife, a mother, and a widow. He signed the Declaration of Independence, the Treaty of Paris, and the Constitution. She strained to form the letters of her name,” Jill Lepore wrote, in 2013. The lesser-known Franklin, to Lepore, was as interesting as her brother, eventually becoming the subject of “Book of Ages,” Lepore’s 2013 biography of Jane and a study of her letters. Read Lepore’s essay, where she traces the connections not only between the Franklin siblings but between Jane Franklin and Lepore’s own mother, Marjorie: newyorkermag.visitlink.me/Yn…

@safety @nikitabier Investigative reporter Julie K. Brown (@jkbjournalist), who has covered Jeffrey Epstein for years, has been locked out of her @X account since Saturday and has been unable to regain access. Any help getting her access back would be greatly appreciated.

Bravo to @hannah_natanson, whose Pulitzer Prize reporting overcame an outrageous and chilling FBI raid on her home, a threat to journalism in this country

Great to see @jkbjournalist recognized (at last and justly) by @PulitzerPrizes! Congratulations, Julie!

Almost all of these news influencers build their brand by commenting on reporting done by real journalists at legacy outlets.

Today we celebrate World Press Freedom Day, sponsored by UNESCO. Unfortunately, this right is often violated, sometimes flagrantly, sometimes in hidden ways. Let us remember the many journalists and reporters who are victims of war and violence.

The best way to find typos is to reread the draft you’ve already circulated.

For years, @jkbjournalist tried to land a job as a reporter at her hometown @PhillyInquirer. Instead, she reported for papers in Bethlehem & Bucks County & the @PhillyDailyNews. Today, the Inqy profiled her as “The woman who took down Jeffrey Epstein.” inquirer.com/news/nation-wor…
