Stephanie Ruhle's recent purchase of an UES townhouse.

Time to quote Fitzgerald:

“Let me tell you about the very rich. They are different from you and me. They possess and enjoy early, and it does something to them, makes them soft where we are hard, and cynical where we are trustful, in a way that, unless you were born rich, it is very difficult to understand. They think, deep in their hearts, that they are better than we are because we had to discover the compensations and refuges of life for ourselves. Even when they enter deep into our world or sink below us, they still think that they are better than we are. They are different. ”

Read the whole thing in context

Rohrbacher....when will he be subpoenad?

Veselnitskaya and the usual Russian suspects

Did you know Browder relinquished his US citizenship? Don't know how that figures in, but I can't believe he hasn't been suicided yet. Speaking of which,

How bout that peter smith?
