In a shocking turn of events, many of the people who said they wanted "free speech" actually just wanted to be the ones in charge of which speech is free.
UPDATE—Mahmoud's attorney says they do NOT know where he is.
They were first told he was sent to an ICE facility in Elizabeth, NJ. But when his 8-month-pregnant wife tried to visit him, she was told he's not there.
They've received reports he may be sent as far away as Louisiana.

shout out to the time a top editor at a very prominent dc politics publication told me

and i quote

“we will never under any circumstances publish a story that makes people who don’t support trans rights look like bigots”
The fact that “neutral” pundits continue to carry water for the lie that a majority of Americans support what is happening to trans people is further evidence that “neutrality” isn’t journalism at all. It’s not holding power to account. It’s reinforcing power and repeating propaganda

proof that we’re living through baby fascism: the most violent rhetoric is covered by the thinnest veil of respectability, so thin that it’s insulting. yet liberals continue to abide by these crippled and defaced norms
Here is how the White House “condemned” the threats

Trump's victory, I've read, has ushered in a new era where people don't have to be so careful about saying the right words or saying what's on their mind. And yet you wouldn't know it listening to CEOs being asked about the tariffs.
