Did they find anything useful or is it just "reset password" emails from p*** and sports betting sites?

I'm guessing they got into some personal burner account he had used a while ago and forgotten about. So probably not anything actually interesting in terms of recent events or overall politics. Maybe there's some dirt on his past business dealings.

$10 Million? Of my dollars, and yours. Spend that money bringing child rapists to justice instead

Don't worry, it's being offered by the Trump administration which means they won't pay a single dime even if they get what they want.

Right now Kash is wondering how much of his Trump/Hegseth slash fan fic the Iranians have gotten ahold of.

I hope they leak it all, and we get to see what Kash really thinks of his boss and the Epstein Files.

Unless Patel's email contains Epstein files showing Trump raping those kids, 10M seems too huge as a reward.

Did they "claim" or did they...publish the photos? Did Fortune do any actual journalism here?

Religious zealots don't care about money. I don't support it but I understand their point.

Disagree. Religious zealotry costs, especially if you want to spread it around and bring other people into the cause.

History dictates that they are willing to take it to the chin and keep fighting with massive losses. They feel like they are in a fight for survival, and they are. It might cost, but they won't stop. We opened Pandora's Box and now it can't be closed. Just wait until we hit Iran enough that they hit desalinization plants across the middle east. If you understand what happens after that, then you won't disagree. US military bases have taken major hits already.

Of course they're willing to take it on the chin because most of these people at the top of these religious movements, whether they be big or small groups, tend not to have much else going on.

As it always has been.
