It's a weird world when dutifully regurgitating a bunch of carefully curated information that the world's richest man gave you is "fearless journalism," but reporting on how the government is kidnapping innocent people and sending them overseas to be tortured is "not moving the ball forward."

NYT says today, "U.S. Economic Growth Surged in Third Quarter of 2025: Gross domestic product grew at a 4.3 percent annual rate, faster than the previous three months."
Sounds like great news, until you look at where the $$ are going. People are seeing Trump's assault on health care.

All of these bootlegged copies of the 60 Minutes segment flooding my feed (saying, ‘Watch it quick! Before it disappears!’) makes me feel like I’m in the Soviet Union and just got some black market foreign newspaper I need to hide under a floorboard in my house.

After what we're seeing at CBS, if today is not the perfect day for everyone to find some independent journalism & nonprofit newsrooms to support... what day could be better?

bari weiss saw this and decided that she had to hide it from the american public
Guards began beating him. Beat him until he bled. Knocked his face into the wall, broke all his teeth. No access to outdoors, no contact with relatives.
Now describing US knowledge of CECOT's torture practices, followed by footage of Trump praising those practices.

U.S. Democracy fails when we convince ourselves that voters are always right & should be told what they want to hear to earn their vote.
Actually, a healthy democracy MUST contradict voters. Leaders MUST tell ignorant voters what they NEED to hear when they don't know how the world works. 🧵

The White House has been caught.
The administration inserted a photo of Bill Clinton, Michael Jackson, and Diana Ross into the Epstein files and falsely implied it showed them with victims.
In reality, it’s a publicly available fundraiser photo featuring Jackson and Ross’s own children.

Feels to me like the last quote here is more devastating and incriminating than even the birthday book and the photos and the rest.

Sorkin: This is now state-sponsored capitalism. This is not really capitalism. Everything runs through 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue now. That is a fundamental reshift, and that is something that’s more akin to places like China, frankly.

Fani Willis has no more fucks to give‼️🔥💥🔥Listen as she goes scorched earth on State Senator Greg Dolezal (R-GA) who is running for Lieutenant Governor. He’s questioning her about bringing the case against Trump for trying to overturn the 2020 election. This is how it’s done!

218 members signed the discharge petition to force a vote to extend ACA tax credits.
If Speaker Johnson refuses to bring forth the vote, he’s telling the American people loud and clear that rising health care costs are acceptable to him.
