The BBC joins a long list of media companies now obeying in advance. I can't say I'm surprised or at this point even angry. It is a structural flaw in legacy media

All I can do is promise that Democracy Docket will never bow down or bend a knee. It will remain unapologetically pro-democracy.
NEWS --> BBC confirms to me that they did edit a line out of historian @rutgerbregman.com's speech. It called Trump "the most openly corrupt president in US history."

BBC also confirms this was done on the advice of lawyers. So Trump's threats worked.

Trump’s Fury at BBC Gets Unnerving Results with Pro-MAGA Edit Stunner
First, British Broadcasting Corporation execs resigned after Trump complained about a segment. Now the BBC edited out a line from a historian that was critical of Trump. Where does this end?

"Landlords could no longer rely on rent-pricing software to quietly track each other’s moves and push rents higher using confidential data... to end what critics said was illegal 'algorithmic collusion.'"

Shouldn't using it have been a crime then?

How are common people expected to compete?

While RFK Jr spreads conspiracies, California will stick to science.
Breaking News: Robert F. Kennedy Jr. said he personally instructed the CDC to abandon its position that vaccines do not cause autism. The move underscores his determination to challenge scientific orthodoxy — in this case, that vaccines save lives — and bend the health department to his will.

In an interview, Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. cited gaps in vaccine safety research. His critics say he is ignoring a larger point: Vaccines save lives.

A key point from this interview: the "benefit" of tariffs, if it exists, is delayed. You don't flip a switch and get a plant tomorrow. You wait years. It also follows that a tariff you don’t trust to outlast a mood swing won’t change where companies build at all.

Speaker Mike Johnson has reportedly told the White House that most Republicans aren't interested in extending ACA subsidies.

Reminder that 57% of ACA Marketplace enrollees live in congressional districts represented by a Republican.

They're selling out their own voters.
