“They've snipped out 10 seconds of what he was going to say, and left him absolutely seething.”

Why did the BBC make the “chilling” decision to edit out Rutger Bregman’s criticism of Donald Trump when it went to broadcast?

Given that the BBC endlessly gives platforms to lobbyists from the dark money junktanks without revealing their interests, shouldn't we be seeing such apologies every day?

Better still, how about not doing it? If they want to appear, we should know on whose behalf they are speaking.

Donald Trump isn't wielding his antitrust authority to protect the American people — he's using it to reward his allies.

He's instilling his own twisted version of Bork-era antitrust enforcement, which gave corporate monopolies outsized power at the expense of everyone else.
