This is how dictators talk

watching the CECOT 60 Minutes segment that CBS suppressed, it’s striking that Weiss specifically called out as unnecessary some of the most rigorous investigative work in the segment, including an explanation of how it was done (by human rights researchers)

bari weiss saw this and decided that she had to hide it from the american public

CBS is filing copyright takedowns against copies of the banned CECOT 60 Minutes segment

Per NY Times’s Michael Grynbaum on X, this is Sharyn Alfonsi’s email to her “60 Minutes” colleagues in full:

OH LOOK, THE DOJ HAS BEEN QUIETLY SCRUBBING PHOTOS FROM THEIR "EPSTEIN FILES" WEBSITE. YOU'LL NEVER GUESS WHY: IT'S BECAUSE DONNY IS A DEGENERATE. ACTUALLY, THAT WASN'T TOO HARD TO GUESS. I'VE GOT THE EVIDENCE IN MY VERY STRONG, VERY POWERFUL POST. THANK YOUR ATTENTION TO IT HERE: bit.ly/4qfAzdi

Since a lot of people seem to be confused, this is what fascism sounds like in the American context.

Goldman: This guy is so clearly trying to follow the Putin model—using the government to make money, making sure his allies control the most important companies in the country, including our media companies, doling out money by deregulating their industries, and taking money from them in return…

This is absolutely fucking bananas the way that these people are *so close* to getting it but still manage to miss it by a fucking mile.

I’m shocked.

Man but there are a lot of special snowflakes who seem to be saying “but when I use AI, it’s ethical.“ Fuck that. It’s built on plagiarism. It lies. And it’s enormously ecologically irresponsible. If that’s your gig, I pity you.

1. Paramount's hostile takeover bid for Warner Bros. Discovery exposes Jared Kushner's game Kushner is not running a private equity fund. He's running an influence peddling operation. It's spelled out on page 42 of Paramount's new SEC filing

Whipple: Wiles thought she was talking to someone who would give her a fair shake. And I did give her a fair shake. But the problem is, when you’re in that bubble, you wouldn’t recognize fair treatment when you see it—because crazy is crazy when you’re in that bubble.

The White House has been caught. The administration inserted a photo of Bill Clinton, Michael Jackson, and Diana Ross into the Epstein files and falsely implied it showed them with victims. In reality, it’s a publicly available fundraiser photo featuring Jackson and Ross’s own children.

The name "Popular Science" doesn't mean we shift our coverage depending on public opinion. It means we cover relevant subjects that are rigorously researched, reliable, and grounded in reality. And trans lives are grounded in reality. We see y'all. No matter what. www.popsci.com/science/tran...

FLASHBACK… Seems relevant today…

When you render something super well but the rest of the image isn't done yet 😂

Trump’s primetime diatribe against immigrants is straight up unvarnished Nazi stuff

Full on neo-Nazi conspiracy theories from the president tonight — the very same invasion and replacement conspiracy theories that have fueled a cycle of deadly violence targeting so many communities including immigrants, Jews, Latinos, the Black community, Muslims, and more.

So Trump is just giving away another $2.6 billion in taxpayer money for “bonuses” that was not appropriated for that purpose by our duly elected representatives in Congress, while we are $38 trillion in debt.

W the actual F? He's such a petty little man.

My Outfit for the Day it Happens.

It cannot be an offense to repeat what the law itself clearly states: Soldiers are not required to follow illegal commands. This is political persecution, and it must end now.

Lock and load gang, Axolotl with a Gun is coming to Zinequest 2026 with a coin-operated 2nd edition! 💥🔫 www.kickstarter.com/projects/res...

Oh. Cool. Just as the President is using every power he can to suppress dissent and stifle speech, @whitehouse.senate.gov and the @judiciarydems.senate.gov are trying to hand Trump a new tool to suppress speech online. What a joke.

To give you a sense of how big a departure this year, the government doesn't do this for wanted criminals.

“As of Wednesday, 111 measles cases had been reported in what’s known as upstate South Carolina — an area in the northwest of the state that includes Greenville and Spartanburg.”

Yes Americans famously love austerity, especially when it’s pitched to them by a guy who was currently building a gold leafed ball room

Bove has also—after being sworn in as a judge on the Third Circuit—been observed visiting Main Justice for consultations with Bondi and Blanche. Grossly unethical conduct.

The death rate among children under 5 is expected to grow this year for the first time in the 21st century, researchers say. A key factor, they say, is cuts to U.S. and other foreign aid www.washingtonpost.com/world/2025/1...

Movie you've watched more than six times with a gif. Hard mode: no LOTR, Star Wars / Trek, Marvel, Disney or Pixar Animation.

“I’ll be involved” is another big broken norm.

The Trump Administration extrajudicially executed Colombian fisherman Alejandro Carranzaas for alleged drug smuggling (without evidence), but pardoned right-wing ex-Honduran President JOH actually convicted of conspiring with drug cartels to traffic over 400 tons of cocaine into the United States.

A University of Minnesota-led review found no scientific basis for the switch in the nation's hepatitis B immunization strategy. Pediatric cases have declined 99% since the current national vaccine strategy was implemented in 1991.

The Secretary of Defense taking extrajudicial killing requests from podcast hosts

Rand Paul just posted this letter from the Coast Guard confirming that 1/4 of the boats they stop carry no contraband. The likelihood that Hegseth & Bradley ordered the murder of innocent civilians is very high.

The U.S. has conducted 19 strikes on alleged drug-carrying boats, killing at least 76 people. Remember: no judge or jury has found these boats were trafficking drugs. We're simply taking Trump's word for it. He’s unilaterally acting as judge, jury, and executioner. This is a danger to us all.

Pastor Jorge Bautista was telling a Border Patrol agent "we come in peace" when the agent fired toxic powder at him, leaving him struggling to breathe. “No one should be assaulted for being out there protesting,” he says. With @frontlinepbs.bsky.social

Trump just gave a commutation to David Gentile, a private equity executive who defrauded investors of $1.6B. Meanwhile, Trump's regime has also scrapped enforcement actions against over 160 corporations accused of misconduct. A new Golden Age for corporate criminals.

Kelly: He runs around on stage talking about lethality and the warrior ethos.. That’s not the message that should be coming from the Secretary of Defense… He runs around on a stage like he’s a 12 year old playing army. It’s embarrassing.

Remember: Almost all of us are the descendants of immigrants who fled persecution, or were brought to America under duress, or sought better lives for themselves and their descendants. Politicians who stoke fear and hatred over immigration want you to forget this. Do not.
