Ok, this may be an asinine question but...say I wasn't a multimillionaire/billionaire and I wanted to run a news outlet that made money.
Why wouldn't I run one that's exactly opposite than what everyone else is doing? Why wouldn't I use language that correctly depicts what's going on?

So, the problem I was starting to have with Twitter and now with Bsky is that there are so many insanely knowledgeable people on here in industries that are not easy to understand the real inner workings on.
But if I ask those people ?s, if I get any response it's typically dismissal.

The second paragraph of every article about Trump freeing House Republicans to vote to release the Epstein files should make it clear that he could order them released himself and chooses not to.

Does anyone know the start date of when ICE arrived in Chicago?
Did they do the '30 days' thing again to not have to reimburse people or does that only apply to Nat Guard?

Is now the time to talk about the pedophile billionaire in New Zealand who paid the courts to hide his name and his company for less than $50k and is only seeing a jail cell for far less than 2 years for thousands of counts of kiddie porn?

I just received a document from DHS showing that it has a detained population of 65,000, a staggering total, nearing half the total prison population detained by the Bureau of Prisons. The project is to jam them in horrible conditions until they give up their rights to stay

this is bait and so it’s important not to get too worked up about it. but a couple notes about how dishonest it is. (1) implies all the docs out today are related to the discharge petition; they’re not. and the petition itself remains unlikely to generate new documents for the public.
Imagine if Dems in the Senate hadn't caved. The House wouldn't be in session rn, the discharge petition wouldn't be signed, people wouldn't have SNAP, govt workers would be RIF'd & the GOP would have some decent talking points. But also online rage addicts would be happier! YMMV!
