Current media owners holding a flashing sign: Will Trade Free Speech for Merger

Becoming increasingly clear we’re gonna have to build a parallel infrastructure for all the media we really love. The reason all of this is happening under the color of law is hyperconsolidation, dissent being traded straight up for merger approval, or fear of harassment.

Name a standard the trump administration hasn’t violated. Ethical, Moral, Legal or Constitutional? www.washingtonpost.com/business/202...

In other words, he’ll be an operative for trump. And “unpaid” in this administration is corrupt-speak for being compensated through market manipulation. www.washingtonpost.com/business/202...

Mobsters, not a government. Trump & his capos should be sitting in prison. www.washingtonpost.com/world/2025/0...

Next up: a gold-plated Washington Monument & Botox into Lincoln’s deep wrinkles at his memorial. Also MLK must be cut down to size. www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

Corrupting economic statistics will change our economic reality. Here's how: Tariffs raise prices. Social Security is indexed to inflation. If Trump tells a partisan BLS head to downplay inflation, seniors' social security checks won't keep up. Rigged stats = stolen benefits.

Right on brand for Texas leadership—Expelling Democrats from meaningful representation is what their fantastical new maps will do. www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

The Epstein files may never escape DOJ custody, but now maybe Ghislaine Maxwell can. www.washingtonpost.com/national-sec...

The Smithsonian is participating in the Fascist rewrite of history—odd choice for a history museum. Their reasons are laughable. www.washingtonpost.com/entertainmen...

Much as I would not dare to predict the consequences of this war, I do think we can summarize it thusly so far: A smart and evil man manipulated a stupid and evil man into a war against a fanatical and evil regime.

UGH — Looking for comp titles is a lot like shopping for bathing suits or bras. Nothing fits & they all make me feel insecure. #writing #writingcommunity

More breathtaking CORRUPTION from the populist man-of-the-people. Not sure why any of us should pay taxes until trump is removed from office. www.nytimes.com/2025/05/27/u...

Gestapo tactics are here. Unforgivable. Unsustainable. Unacceptable. UnAmerican. Impeachable. Criminal.

Next comes the compulsory yellow badge, likely a #Tesla symbol instead of the WWII star. #concentrationcamps Will the Vichy Republicans in Congress ever wake up? www.washingtonpost.com/business/202...

Time to start calling the congressional #GOP the Vichy government. Time to start referring to trump’s cabinet, especially #marcorubio, as Nazi collaborators. #resistance #constitutionalcrisis #crimesagainsthumanity #concentrationcamps.

North Carolina court of appeals is going to nullify an election based on concern of “vote dilution” in one of the most gerrymandered states in the country. Pure hypocrisy, voter suppression & election rigging. #NC #NorthCarolina #ncpol #nccourts #courts #votersuppression #ncga #ncsupremecourt

Ironically ludicrous how fear of losing their government job in a primary is an accepted reason to not fight #Doge, which indiscriminately fires workers who Elon views as sponging off the government.

Trump administration starving North Carolinians so their rich donors can eat better caviar. #ncpol #NC #NorthCarolina #Hunger

It was never a Russian hoax. trump has to go.

Where are the articles of impeachment for both trump & Vance? After today it should be obvious to all they’ve gotta go. Or you could keep waiting while they & musk burn everything to the ground. @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social

@radiofreetom.bsky.social will need to change his book’s title to The Willful Murder of Expertise

It’s beginning to look a lot like Treason, everywhere we look.

trump has broken his oath of office & taken a sledgehammer to the rule of law. He is at war with the country & our allies. Time to talk treason.

It is time for Americans to rise up and demand trump be removed from office.

In addition to mealy-mouthed Congressional objections, all state attorneys general should immediately file suit for unauthorized data breach on behalf of their constituents. @jeffjacksonnc.bsky.social #ncpol

If fentanyl is coming into the country via 🇨🇦 maple syrup, my worsening head cold 🤧 is punishment for not abiding yesterday’s ice cream 🍨 for breakfast mandate. Welcome to our post-logic world. trump is, was & remains #unfitforoffice #Canada #tariffs #tradewar

Apparently trump’s plan to lower egg prices is to raise the cost of everything else. #Eggs will feel like a bargain. Problem solved. #tarriffs #unfitforoffice

Bank Robbery in progress! musk & trump are determined to rob the country of its wealth one way or another. www.washingtonpost.com/business/202...

I was to give a talk at a big US Attorney's Office next week abt the complicity of German lawyers in the creation of the Nazi state. Yesterday the Justice Department cancelled it. Irony is dead. I've got an op/ed on this I'm looking to place. Help appreciated. #LawSky #Skystorians #Holocaust

Y’all can own the Libs if you like, but if you take away our caffeinated coffee, shit’s gonna get ugly.

How ironic that J.D. Vance has become a lonely cat lady. #presidentmusk #VPTrump

#ncgop are at it again. When uber-gerrymandering fails to maintain minority rule, they routinely use hidden power grabs. #ncpol NC House votes to strip power from incoming Democratic governor, AG as part of Helene aid bill www.wral.com/story/nc-hou...

NEW: Trump nominates SpongeBob SquarePants to run NOAA.

Here we were concerned trump would withdraw the U.S. from, or quiet quit, #NATO. But after his unqualified, compromised & unfit picks for critical positions, allies be like, “You think you’re breaking up with us? NO, we’re breaking up with You.” “It’s not us, it’s you.” “I don’t trust you anymore”

BREAKING: America Absolute Absurdity www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

"He is formless, almost faceless, a man whose countenance is a caricature, a man whose framework seems cartilaginous, without bones. He is inconsequent and voluble, ill-poised, insecure. He is the very prototype of the Little Man."

History is repeating.

Our Mr. Lincoln tea roses are ginormous. Could be a sign to stand tall for our country even as winter approaches. #gardening

Two cannibals are eating a clown. One looks at the other and says, "Does this taste funny to you?"
