another great example along with Wired and Teen Vogue of how real journalism these days can be a lot braver at outlets where no one is trying to get in good with the White House press secretary they’re out here with us, reporting on what’s happening to us all, instead of trying to get inside access

Why have Enrique Tarrio's crypto investments not been transferred to the Metropolitan African Methodist Episcopal Church? AME is owed a $2.8 million default judgment entered against the Proud Boys stemming from their December 2020 attack. A debtor's exam should be ordered against Tarrio.

Rosen has voted for 7 of Trump's nominees. Yesterday she was the lone Democrat to vote for Kelly Loeffler to lead the Small Business Administration. Loeffler & her husband (CEO of the company that owns NY Stock Exchange) sold millions in stock after she attended a closed COVID briefing in Jan 2020.

The party that is supposed to provide opposition to authoritarianism is made up of people who got in power by making nice with authoritarians and billionaires. It’s a party of managers and if you’ve ever seen managers in your workplace react when an authoritarian boss sweeps in you get it.

Folks are shocked that their institutions, after professing commitments to climate justice and DEI, are now caving to Trump and scrubbing all references. It's brutal. And it's the smallest taste of what our students felt when their universities called in the cops b/c they protested a genocide.

Polling shows a profound disconnect between those who oppose MAGA and the rest of America. We need leaders who will cut through their shock-entertainment tactics and expose the real danger living underneath. My latest: michaeledisonhayden.substack.com/p/the-shock-...

Ukraine got into a war because Russia invaded them, demanding they give up independence. The only way for Ukraine to not go into war was bowing down to Putin and forfeiting freedom. As Clausewitz said, “The aggressor is always peace-loving… he would prefer to take over our country unopposed.”

Her story has shaken up metro Detroit. It's very cold up here and she didn't get the help she needed even after calling the city and multiple agencies. She, her mom, and her kids slept in a van. Ran out of gas. Her 9 year old & 2 year old died from hypothermia. I can't stop thinking about her. 💔

I'm done with the commentators who keep saying this is "approaching" a "constitutional crisis" etc... It's bullshit. The crisis is here and more than that this is an administrative coup d'etat. The people refusing to be honest don't want to land the plane because they don't want to say what's next.

The AP must refuse this but more importantly the rest of the White House Correspondents Association should back them. Boycott the press briefings until they relent, and if they refuse, walk out. There is no real use to them in any case. Trump craves attention. Deny him that and he’ll cave.

The AP should stop covering Trump events. Instead send those White House reporters out into the field to report on the harms and repercussions of his policies. The U.S. public never needed coverage of pseudo-events anyway.
