that Krasnov thing explains what happened today

Fox News and Newsmax have reportedly signed onto a letter criticizing the Trump WH for limiting the AP's access for not using "Gulf of America." But their actual coverage of the issue is full of attacks on the AP and defenses of Trump.

CPAC or ‘Idiocracy’?

Trolling is a kind of complicity theater. Either you look away, in which case you’ve accepted a role—”see no evil”—or you “take the bait,” in which case you’re playing a part, even if, as I am here, you’re in conflict with the whole production. slowcivilwar.substack.com/p/tingles

This would pair well with a depressing article about leaders of rich private 4-yr college covering their eyes and ears

Bernie Sanders: "They will use the enormous media operations they own to deflect attention away from the impact of their policies while they entertain us to death."

Trump Lost. Harris was cheated out of 3,565,000 votes by Jim Crow tricks. In this clip I give Mark Thompson — @themts.bsky.social — a breakdown of the numbers, where they came from, and the key calculations. youtu.be/3UiB3xwyfPQ
