Jeffrey Bezos is destroying the Washington Post for the same reason Musk destroyed Twitter and Ellison is destroying CBS—oligarchs oppose the free press when if it threatens their wealth and power.
They don’t want normal people to see what is happening in America.
Bezos isn't destroying the Washington Post because it isn't profitable. He's destroying the Washington Post because he's calculated that a robust free press threatens the ability of his class to warp society around their interests
In 2023, CBP killed a young Black girl that they imprisoned by incarcerating her and failing to provide the needed medical care for her sickle cell anemia
You cannot reform this apparatus which kills people no matter which party is in charge

The arrests of journalists Don Lemon and Georgia Fort are a test for every MSM member with a platform. If you are not voicing your outrage at this blatant violation of the First Amendment, you are utterly discredited as a journalist.
4 Black journalists have been kidnapped by the federal government
“Independent” is doing too much work in this first wave. They are arresting journalists and just like everything else they’ve done, they’re testing the limits of our resistance by starting wt vulnerable margins.
The state of american politics is that one major party wants to kill you while the other simply wants you to die
Use a theorist in such a way that it doesn’t make me want to put down your essay and read the theorist challenge
Bombing another country and kidnapping its leader would also be wrong with Congressional approval. The outrage, and call for impeachment, should be over the evil and illegal outcome not merely the failure to follow the prescribed process.
Sometimes I think about Harris‘s ”most lethal military in the world” line from her DNC speech and today is one of those days
Are white people aware that Trump won twice BECAUSE A MAJORITY OF WHITE PEOPLE WHO VOTED PUT HIM IN OFFICE?????????? Why is this consistently elided???? Stop being ridiculous.
2025 recapped
The same companies that fired all their writers, artists and the creative staff who write and make stories?
The same companies whose managers went 100% into "AI or bust"?
The same companies who have supported the current US administration as it attacks universities and the humanities?
YA DON'T SAY
Very important to hate fascists more than you hate liberals.
Meanwhile Robin Ince genuinely has been cancelled for daring to voice his opinions and for defending trans people.
Where's the outrage from the "cancel culture" lot?
What are the Free Speech Union doing to help him?
Hey… pssst. The reason why the 5 year social media histories are only being asked of ESTA applicants is because the US government has been collecting social media information of visa applicants for almost a decade now. Once again, migration rights were the canary in the coal mine.
Have safely left Uganda & feel immeasurably relieved. Almost everything gay there is illegal. Every HIV outreach risks imprisonment. Every meeting we had was against the law & could’ve been raided. The threat of & actual extortion was constant. Dealt w police more in a month than in 48 yrs combined.
when its definitely not a hostage situation
ICE deported a woman who owned a home in the US for 30 years. A judge banned ICE from deporting her to Sierra Leone where she had been tortured, so it deported her to Ghana, which kidnapped her and sent her back Sierra Leone anyway. ICE is part of this illegal conspiracy.

Ana Mendieta should be a mere 77 years old today.
The Cuban American feminist artist was likely murdered by her husband at 36, in 1985.
May her memory and work be for a revolution. ❤️🔥

Sí.
I know it's unpopular to say but Trump's authoritarian consolidation is succeeding, mostly because of cowardly institutions. We're effectively past the point of no return and life will increasingly become dictated by Trump and the federal government. Democracy is lost for at least a generation.
Anyway--- if there are organizations mobilizing in D.C. to help the homeless after Trump's threat of forced mass removal, please send + share!
Someone forgot to take down this webpage:

screenshot of a Facebook post by Corey Robin, which says: "By the way, did you all notice how Zohran made affordability a central issue of his campaign without selling out trans kids or shitting on immigrants? Might be some lessons there. Just a thought."
he's right and he's right to say it
The Cut article from 2018: Cuomo halted investigation into Weinstein case after $25K donation from his former lawyer
holy shit. Cuomo halted an investigation into the Weinstein case after a donation from Weinstein’s former lawyer’s firm to his reelection campaign…
guys, this was in 2018 AFTER the Weinstein exposés (multiple) had been published & the #metoo movement was ascendant
i’ve seen enough: it’s time for NY progressives to line up behind zohran mamdani so we don’t end up with andrew fucking cuomo as our mayor
Queer Alienism showing in Rotterdam!!!!! #queerart
Banning somebody from campus for diplomatically criticizing the university’s use of her tuition dollars to support a nation whose policies she disagrees with is another example of the fascism creeping into universities
