FYI already planned buyouts are next up at the @washingtonpost because they are as hamhanded at management as it looks. My assumption is they are doing this ass backwards in hopes people would leave rather than be paid out.
Washington Post CEO Will Lewis publicly supported Bezos's decision to remake the ideology of the opinion section. But privately, he pushed back, warning Bezos it would have consequences for the health of the paper:

I just saw a headline from The Bulwark that said something like "Allies are Assets You Idiots." #ThankYouJoe Biden who re-established alliances that his predecessor tossed aside. Please pray for us as we step up to face another term of the idiocy.

#ThankYouJoe for saving us from the INSANITY the new administration has promised. I'm going to miss having a President who cares about actual folks over a grifter and charlatan who's in it to stay out of prison.
Gen. Milley on his pardon: "My family and I are deeply grateful for the President's action today. After 43 years of faithful service in uniform to our Nation … I do not wish to spend whatever remaining time the Lord grants me fighting those who unjustly might seek retribution for perceived slights."

You know who's NOT WATCHING the inauguration...this guy. We should be celebrating Civil Rights heroes like MLK Jr, NOT a dictator starting his corrupt evil regime.

If you Google "inauguration day," you're greeted with an animation of fireworks forming the shape of the American flag. Google has never done something like this for the inauguration, sources told me, out of fear of appearing partisan. But that's changed now, with Sergey and Sundar attending.
