Not enough attention paid to the very direct right wing pipeline Substack promotes. Enough that Platformer and Casey Newton elected to switch to another service rather than support a platform that pushes and promotes hard right, conspiracy, and neo Nazi content www.platformer.news/why-platform...

These declines are MASSIVE.
And the comparative silence in media coverage is absolutely DAMNING.
“Why are ppl always so afraid of crime?”
THIS is why. When crime goes up, media trips over itself to report it.
Falls to pre-war (!!) levels? Just CRICKETS.

I count 10 cities in 2025 that are on track to have the fewest murders since at least 1970. Newark is on pace to have the fewest murders since 1956 (though only have data through Oct this year) and San Francisco is on pace to have the fewest murders since 1942.

10 Companies Have Already Made $1 Million as ICE Bounty Hunters. We Found Them.

US media has decided to pretend that the Epstein-Nassar Letter Epstein sent just before he died merely had a "crude reference" to Trump.
NO.
It was a clear, unambiguous allegation by Epstein that Trump *regularly sexually assaulted* "young, nubile girls."

Under RFK Jr., U.S. plans to stop recommending most vaccines, defer to doctors
The plan, which is not finalized, suggests children get fewer shots and shifts to a model telling parents to consult doctors to make their own vaccine choices.

Sue Tincher is a 55-year-old US citizen, a grandmother, 5’4’, and white.
She walked to her neighbor’s house after getting alerts that ICE was nearby.
She stood across the street and asked an officer if they were ICE. They told her to “get back.” She didn’t move.

"ICE and CBP must be abolished" is the only reasonable position. We can debate the specifics of new agencies for immigration functions, but these agencies are simply too infected with a culture of impunity, racism, and fascism to continue. They're gangs with badges.
