A publisher who lays off a reporter whose pen is freezing because she's covering a frigid war zone while dodging missiles is not an editor you want to work for, in a more perfect world

The CIA just stopped publishing their World Factbook and took every page, including the archived copies of previous versions!
This sucks. It was public domain, so I recovered the 2020 edition (the last one published as a zip file) and shared it to GitHub simonwillison.net/2026/Feb/5/t...

A man was charged by the counter-terrorism command for harassing Antoinette Lattouf after the ABC made an example of her at the behest of a lobbying group.
Hard to imagine the same lobbying group isn’t crossing their fingers hoping Dr. Abdel-Fattah will be treated to the same if they keep it up.

I guess it should’ve been obvious that putting News Corp and Daily Mail editors in charge of The Age and SMH would lead to the papers eventually just openly campaigning for Hanson

Pretty telling that Cathy Wilcox has become a more effective political commentator with her powerful sketchings than practically any of her non-cartoonist colleagues who expend literally thousands more words every week but somehow manage to say very little or gutlessly avoid the issues altogether.

"Abolish the Police and then what?" while infantile and often asked in bad faith, is at least, on some levels, a real question
"Ablish ICE and then what?" Is not a real question. Clearly if ICE didn't exist tomorrow society would just objectively be more peaceful and would not in any way fall apart

Over the past few years, mounting evidence of illegality has been met with secrecy, internal fallout, and an escalating effort to defend the system at all costs. But just how far are the Minister and Department prepared to go to keep the punitive MOs regime alive?
