If we all spent a quarter of the time we spend complaining about Donald's abuse of executive power thinking about ways a future Democratic administration will be able to use the same powers we'd be better off.

New York and California should break into the several states. Why does Wyoming have more senators than Philadelphia? #overtonwindow

In a profile of Stephen Miller with @swin24.bsky.social, we reported he’s privately laughed off immigrant families’ “sob stories.”

Speaking last night on Fox about the spiked CECOT story, Miller laughed about how ‘60 Minutes’ is “trying to tell sob stories."

Seen on Truth Social. Is this a warning or a promise? I'm getting "beatings will continue until morale improves" vibes

TIL that a lot of women in the U.S. had the right to vote before the 19th Amendment but laws varied across the country. The suffragette movement's goal was Universal Sufferage. Equal application of civil rights.

As we all re-align our media diets (again), consider becoming a paid member to an independebt news organization. I suggest ProPublica, donations to whom are tax deductible bsky.app/profile/prop...

The legacy media narrative has been unified in claiming that Jeffrey Epstein abused minors. But how can anyone report that without interviewing Jeffrey Epstein? I asked Alan Dershowitz.

MAGA: "hE diDn'T mEaN it tHat waY "
In the summer of 1950 most US newspapers ran an AP story about how race had become the main issue in the upcoming Georgia governor's race. Segregationist Herman Tallmadge, governor from '47 to '55 and then a Senator until 1981 made a name for himself by refusing to "apologize for being a white man."

Gifting this article on the CECOT story in which Sharyn Alfonsi, the correspondent on the story, is reported as writing: “It [the story] is factually correct. In my view, pulling it now, after every rigorous internal check has been met, is not an editorial decision, it is a political one.”

Why did CBS delete this promo and cancel this from airing in full?

The CBS reporter who led the story calls pulling it a "political" decision.
"The decision was made after Bari Weiss, the new editor in chief of CBS News, requested numerous changes to the segment."

“When it fails to air without a credible explanation, the public will correctly identify this as corporate censorship. We are trading 50 years of ‘gold standard’ reputation for a single week of political quiet.”

given rising global populism — and tendency to demonize people with little power in society — worth reflecting that the hero in Australia's mass shooting was a Syrian refugee, and the key witness in the Brown University shooting was a homeless man

According to Howard Lutnick, Donald Trump's favorability has fallen by 150% since January.
FOX: If you cut something by 100%, the cost goes down to 0. If you cut it by 600%, the drug companies are actually paying you

LUTNICK: What he's saying is if a drug was $100 and you bring it down to $13, it's down 7 times

F: Not a 600% cut

L: But it's 700% higher price before. It's down 700% now
