Jared Kushner is finding himself very much in the political spotlight — a far cry from the future the president’s son-in-law envisioned just last year, when he said he’d stay out of government affairs. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2025/12/17/world/politics/kushner-breaking-vow-avoid-politics/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #worldnews #politics #jaredkushner #donaldtrump #us #corruption #russiaukrainewar #russia #ukraine #saudiarabia #netflix #warnerbros #paramount

For the #EpsteinFiles curious among you, I really do recommend you read the man's text messages. Especially the text messages to/from Epstein's bestie #SteveBannon. While you're there you can also read about how Jeffrey Epstein was funding the #bitcoin core development team starting from around 2015 at #MIT (possibly until his death).
Also made some improvements to the Epstein text messages page:
- Highlighted important names ("trump", "jabor", "brock", " #bitcoin", " #SaudiArabia", " #Israel", etc)
- Deanonymized (with help) as many of the #Epstein emails as I could manage based on various kinds of clues, including the signature lines.
- Added an "Other Files" section at the bottom with preview text + links to raw files that are neither emails nor iMessage log files.
- Various other forms of analysis (common signatures, author counts, etc)
i'm really enjoying posting screenshots of Bannon inviting Epstein to the movies on Bannon's insane right wing War Room tweets. his audience Really Does Not Like the fact that the two were so close and communicated so much.

DHL Supply Chain is betting on Saudi Arabia’s push to become a regional trade gateway with a ¥23.6 billion investment in a Riyadh logistics hub. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/business/2025/11/23/dhl-saudi-expansion-riyadh-hub/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #business #dhl #saudiarabia
#Brazil’s President Luiz Inácio #Lula da Silva, with the support of about half the countries, had pushed for a road map for ending the use of #oil, #gas & #coal.
#Trump, who is withdrawing the #UnitedStates from the #ParisAgreement, refused to send negotiators to the event. Even without the Trump admin present to champion #FossilFuel interests, the measure faced stiff opposition.
Dozens of #DevelopingNations joined with major #oil producers including #SaudiArabia & #Russia to oppose the road map, arguing they were unable curtail #FossilFuels while many of their citizens lack #electricity.
Facing that resistance, #Brazil’s effort failed.
The #EU was the major holdout pushing for a deal to take stronger actions to slash #climate #emissions, but it agreed to support the accord after an all-night negotiation session that extended well into the morning Saturday.

‘Things happen’
#WashingtonPost Editorial Board
Setting the record straight about our murdered colleague.
The #US govt often advances its interests by working with nasty people, & #SaudiArabia Crown Prince #MBS is one of the nastiest. It’s one thing…to reluctantly deal with him…[but] #Trump’s performance at the White House Tuesday was something else entirely: #weak, #crass & of no strategic benefit to US.
