“You are not entitled to a response from us, or anyone, ever,” is what an Education Department spokesperson wrote to one of our reporters, @megomatz.bsky.social, after she repeatedly tried to get comment from the department and its officials.

(Published Dec. 2025)
Our Reporters Reached Out for Comment. They Were Accused of Stalking and Intimidation.
Our journalists reach out to people they’re writing about to ensure fairness. But in this environment, they’ve found their efforts to do so are more likely to be vilified than appreciated.

If Congress doesn’t act, the last nuclear arms control treaty between the U.S. and Russia will expire. It would pointlessly wipe out decades of diplomacy, and could spark another arms race that makes the world less safe. This piece is worth the read.

America's Sleeping Giant roared when police attacked civil rights marchers.

And when Nixon tried to cover up Watergate.

Today it roars in Minneapolis and around the country — at the jack-booted thugs occupying our cities.

WATCH — @mrjamesob.bsky.social : “Trump’s DOJ says they won’t release the rest of the files. Why not? Why can’t we see everything? How can someone who appears in them hundreds and hundreds of times oversee the release of the files?”

I haven’t seen it. I hope you don’t, either. But let's be real about what's going on here.

My purpose today is less to highlight this inane excuse for a film than to talk about its real excuse. https://robertreich.substack.com/p/melania-the-film-the-shame

The real bombshell in the Epstein emails is being ignored.

They suggest Epstein played a role in Russian leverage over Donald Trump, offering guidance to people close to Putin on how to influence a sitting US president.

Trump is compromised.

This needs far wider attention:

The Pee Tape is real and Putin has it. Putin also has worse tapes of Trump that Epstein gave him when he surreptitiously recorded him.

Si l’Europe peine à trouver sa propre voix sur la scène internationale, c’est qu’elle reste prisonnière d’une dépendance cognitive envers Washington, analyse, dans une tribune au « Monde », Rosa Balfour, directrice du cercle de réflexion Carnegie Europe.

The majority of Democrats and Independents support Palestine. So why do we still mostly hear from Schumer and Jeffries and the pro Zionists? The majority need to be louder. Take up space. Call them out.
