CNN, Fox News, NPR, Newsmax, and over a dozen other outlets refuse to accept the Trump regime’s demands on restricting Pentagon reporting: “The public has a right to know how the government and military are operating.”

US news outlets reject Pentagon press access policy

At least 20 news organizations declined to sign a new Pentagon access policy for journalists, warning of the potential for less comprehensive coverage of the world’s most powerful military ahead of a Tuesday deadline to accept new restrictions.

"Owning that bias isn’t about semantics; it’s about honesty. Because if we can’t see the way our language enforces hierarchy abroad, we’ll miss how it does the same thing at home..."

Trump’s Knesset fiasco, Hegseth’s Qatari backpedal, Oregon’s secession fever, and the language of empire, one long karaoke of decline.

Erase-the-Inconvenient to Elevate-the-Myth (empire logic for turning "explorers" into "conquerors" and "migrants" into "targets"). Ideological extermination. Legality vs Humiliation. Good journalism leading to accountability broadcast LIVE, in real time.

Twelve Apostles, Great Ocean Road, VIC, Australia - Sunset light bathes the iconic limestone stacks in soft pink and lavender tones, as clouds drift across the evening sky.

A long exposure photograph of the Twelve Apostles at sunset. Tall limestone stacks rise from the ocean, their rugged surfaces glowing with warm pink light. The sea appears silky and mist-like due to the long exposure, while dramatic clouds painted in soft pink and purple tones fill the sky. The cliffs on the right are illuminated by the fading light, creating a tranquil and ethereal coastal scene.
