The MAGA crowd must be going nuts trying to reconcile their deep loathing of Epstein & their love of Bannon with the revelation that both were working hand-in-glove to build MAGA, while Bannon was also trying to protect Epstein from the fallout of revelations about his sex trafficking crimes. Wild!

This is spot on. Unless we challenge the architecture of influence breaking our shared facts, we’re all screwed. Climate, work, home, affordability. Everything is on the line.
Climate breakdown is driven by a storm of lies. This lying is systemic, funded and coordinated, and operates across almost all media, old and new.
This week's column argues that we cannot fight the climate crisis without also fighting the epistemic crisis.

The fight against a strong public school system is endemic to the right. They want to make our children “Western Civ” clones. Others want the “Christian” aspect to dominate. All of it is about monoculture. Prevent critical thinking.

A global (supranational-national) hereditary aristocracy in the making wants you to have nothing they don’t control, not your body, not your labour but worst, not your brain.
The richest man on earth owns X.
The second richest man on earth is about to acquire TikTok and his family could soon own both Paramount and Warner Bros.
The third richest man owns Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp.
The fourth richest man owns The Washington Post.
See the problem here?

the point of the ballroom obvs has nothing to do with aesthetics. it's to create an architectural structure to honor the patronage networks that currently dominate US politics. previous WH venues hosted maybe a couple of hundred people; this hosts nearly 1,000 rich donors.

Can there ever be accountability for the mounting moral failures of the Albanese Labor government? Or are we just fully on board with the cynicism, corruption and hypocrisy now characterising the world, no longer constrained by social and political forces of the past?

In case you have doubts regarding Israel’s PR concerns being the real motive behind the sale of US TikTok to the largest private donor to the IDF, rather than the “China security threat” narrative we’re being fed by MSM, then check out Netanyahu’s views on the matter.
