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)

Yo creo que esto entra ya directamente en la categoría de anilingus. es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aniling...

LOVE Gay Santa! In 2021 the Norwegian Postal Service released this advert to mark the upcoming 50th anniversary of the decriminalisation of homosexuality. The kiss is 😍! 🏳️‍🌈🎅😘🧸🇳🇴

Al VP de los Estados Unidos le preocupa que quienes manejan los arsenales nucleares de Francia y el Reino Unido tengan "ideas moralmente destructivas", pero no parece tener una angustia equivalente con Rusia, que posee entre 15 y 20 veces más armas nucleares que cada una de estas naciones.

Have become quite critical of Macron lately. But for the EU's sole nuclear power this is an important response.

And JD Vance 🙈

Well, happy anniversary to one of the finest of festive exchanges

Oil for water deals. I don't know my Mad Max lore but isn't this a thing in that world?

Definite upsurge in Trump administration attacks on the EU / Europe in the last week, and I think of it rather as a cross between a toddler tantrum and an arsonist where the key fact is the project to reshape the world and even the US is failing.

Imagine being foolish enough to trust Vladimir Putin when he says he has no plans to attack, invade, or occupy Europe.

The Olivia Nuzzi story and the Bari Weiss at CBS story are the same story, which is that the upper echelons of legacy media are absolutely rife with people who worship power and don't feel burdened by any sense of responsibility to their profession or the public.

We’re cooked

The New York Times investigated 346 people who donated at least $250,000 to Trump and found that more than half of them (197) have received pardons, jobs, government contracts, special treatment, or favors.

Remember that The Odyssey was filmed in occupied Western Sahara. This is like filming in Gaza.

CBS paid the president of the United States millions in bribe money and now they censor news reports so it does not annoy him. I don’t know how much plainer we can put this.

At least we have the foreign press to tell us how it is

Ramaswamy, taking a bold stance against bigotry, which he had supported as a party member before realizing the racism also included him.

So there's something happening (primarily on Twitter): right-wing commentators/influencers are straight up inventing a reality where "the left" has been completely owned by the fact that Bill Clinton is in the Epstein photos.

Worth noting, I guess, that inside of a year we've gone from administration officials taking selfies of themselves at CECOT and bragging about how it's hell on earth to now getting their horrible little media worms to kill stories about it

Overwhelming amount of media world chatter and concern about "60 Minutes" tonight. Why would CBS News promote the story about the Trump admin's deportations to CECOT on Friday, only to shelve it today? Correspondent Sharyn Alfonsi says it is "not an editorial decision, it is a political one."

Putin finally reached his content creator era.. and recorded a video promoting a set of “traditional Russian products” that somehow includes jam (Middle East and Mediterranean origins), champagne (France), honey (first harvested in Spain), tea (China), buns (Jordan/Turkey/Egypt/France fight over it)

EU prohíbe libros de García Márquez, Isabel Allende y Laura Esquivel De casi 4 mil títulos censurados en 45 estados, más de la tercera parte son de autores latinoamericanos. PEN América censura a la diversidad racial e identidad de género. www.milenio.com/internaciona...

This is NYT headline morning after JD’s grotesque hot blast of white supremacist nativism at Turning Point’s hate-fest?!

Israel’s Cabinet approved 19 new Jewish settlements in the West Bank. Settlements are widely considered illegal under international law.

La complicidad de una parte del partido Demócrata con el régimen trumpista es monstruosa e inexplicable. Siete senadores de ese partido votaron con los Republicanos a favor de una ley que permitirá a la policía de fronteras desnudar a niños de 12 años para registrarlos.

Five big global health wins in 2025 that will save millions of lives

No estamos saboreando lo suficiente la ironía de que la primera controversia de la fundadora de "The Free Press" como responsable del contenido de CBS News sea por retirar un reportaje poco conveniente para la administración Trump. www.npr.org/2025/12/22/g...

"Given Trump’s erratic behaviour over existing deals, and ministers’ and senior MPs’ warning that all agreements with him are only 'built on sand', the time is rapidly approaching when Britain will have to choose." www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Why?

"Como subraya Science, la transición desde los combustibles fósiles hacia un sistema energético limpio no solo es posible, sino que se está acelerando y consolidando como la opción más práctica, económica y sostenible para el futuro del planeta." www.energias-renovables.com/panorama/la-...

Que el vicepresidente de los Estados Unidos recurra en 2025 al lenguaje de segregacionistas como Herman Tallmadge o Mendel Rivers debería estar haciendo saltar todas las alarmas.

Jojojojo.

Es espectacular cómo se está haciendo añicos la libertad de los medios para informar sin interferencias del poder en los Estados Unidos sin que nuestros liberales ibéricos de referencia emitan ni un suspiro.

the idea that weiss had journalistic concerns is belied by the fact that she's not a journalist

she's just doing what she was hired to do

So Bari Weiss’s first real editorial intervention at CBS is to repress coverage of American concentration camps.

The CBS reporter who led the story calls pulling it a "political" decision. "The decision was made after Bari Weiss, the new editor in chief of CBS News, requested numerous changes to the segment." www.nytimes.com/2025/12/21/b...

“In that same court document, it is revealed that Epstein took the then 14-year-old to Mar-a-Lago in 1994, where she was introduced to Donald Trump. According to the files, Epstein elbowed Trump playfully asking him, "This is a good one, right?" with Trump smiling and nodding in agreement.”

Lo de la mierda de candidatos que planta el PSOE en las autonómicas también es para hacérselo mirar. No ponen más que a inútiles o paracaidistas sin arraigo en la política local. El Perro no quiere oposición interna y eso también lo están pagando a nivel autonómico.

The CISA's new director, hand-picked by Kristi Noem, asked to be "read in" to highly sensitive, compartmentalized intelligence shared with a select few people in the civilian agency by the NSA or CIA. It was so sensitive that his predecessor had never asked to see the raw intel. 1/

People saying Weiss and the new owners want CBS “destroyed” go too far: if you buy a news channel you want people to watch it. But getting some of the old guard to resign in protest – so you can replace them with your own people – may be a feature, not a bug.

Una startup londinense de IA (valorada en 1500 millones) recaudó inversiones por 450 millones de Microsoft, SoftBank o el Gobierno de Catar. Tú describías qué aplicación querías y la IA la creaba. Pero resulta que no había IA: eran 700 indios metiendo código a mano ia.acs.org.au/article/2025...

Just to be clear, BBC, the right to protest IS part of the right to free speech. If you block protest, you’re blocking free speech. “University threatened with legal action after protest at academic's talk” www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

New reports on the Bondi beach shooting in Sydney, both from Australia and American press, get more interesting by the day - they *really* were prepared. Had multiple tactical training sessions, 3D prints, multiple IEDs... it's looking very damning.

Now seems like a swell time to point out that Frontline just released this excellent 11-minute mini-documentary about what happened inside CECOT.

Justo venía a escribir esto. No parece haber grandes desplazamientos de los bloques ideológicos o trasvase de voto entre ellos. A primera vista parece una enorme desmovilización del voto progresista y una radicalización del voto de derecha.

Right, this line Vance used was a very common line used by segregationists. Here's Rep. Mendel Rivers (D-SC) reacting to the Brown decision, which he said "would bring mongrelization of the Caucasian race. He added that he for one won't apologize for being a white man."

In the summer of 1950 most US newspapers ran an AP story about how race had become the main issue in the upcoming Georgia governor's race. Segregationist Herman Tallmadge, governor from '47 to '55 and then a Senator until 1981 made a name for himself by refusing to "apologize for being a white man."

During a press conference, Marco Rubio was unusually energized, restless, with rapid speech, visible agitation, dilated pupils, excessive sweating, jaw tension, frequent sniffing, and an intense emotional presentation reflected in rigid posture and exaggerated gestures. ❄️⛷️☃️
