FIRE’s whole free speech on campus focus smacks of conservative grievance.
Yes, the group has fought some high profile bad stuff. But its college free speech ranking list? A chunk of the student voices the group highlights are right-wingers complaining about their too-woke institutions.

Funding absolutely matters.
Right-wing megafunders give money to groups that fight for what they want.
It’s that simple.

This line isn’t new to me. When I published my story highlighting how Koch-connected groups were trying to ratfuck the pandemic response, right-wing COVID contrarians pretended I was engaging in some kind of conspiracy theory.

I will drop this.
But before I do, I have to note that it is excruciatingly clear that Ken is really mad that my reporting highlighted FIRE’s ties to big right-wing money.
He’s comparing the revelations of publicly available tax filings as something akin to a “Pharma-Rothschild conspiracy.”

I mean, it does seem a bit like Trump fucked a child who freaked out, and then Epstein had her killed - shot in the head. It looks a lot like that is what happened.

This is well worth watching for the stunning cognitive dissonance. Imagine voting, very specifically, for the most horrible things, and then feigning surprise when every single one of those things come true on a predictable schedule.
“We might like Candace and Tucker, but they’re not changing our opinions; they’re just saying what a lot of us are thinking.”

Warning: very disturbing read. It’s a story told by a woman who Trump allegedly raped when she was 13. 13!!
It’s not new. She first came forward in 2016 when he began running for president. It was mostly ignored. But it seems increasingly plausible now! katemanne.substack.com/p/the-actual...

i'm watching that CBS interview with Erika Kirk (rather, i'm watching someone react to it) and... i swear this woman is "thoughts and prayers" personified.
she talks like a gas station sympathy card and turns on the crocodile tears at every opportunity.

From this point on, I'm forced to assume that every elected politician who does not immediately call for Trump's impeachment is in the Epstein files. Sorry. Just cutting the Gordian knot here, as one does during societal collapse.

It’s the “season of love and giving”…but this year, doesn’t it seem more like a “season of fear and taking”? Like many of you, I’ve been saddened by the human impact of draconian government budget cuts and how angry many housed Americans are at unhoused Americans.

But JD Vance said immigrants are buying up all the houses and taking them away from innocent Americans. Sounds like people coming to the US set up their housing pretty well!
Homelessness increased primarily because of immigration (lots of people came to the US without setting up housing).
