Massive encroachment by Bezos into The Washington Post’s opinion section - makes clear dissenting views will not be published

I still have not felt encroachment on my journalism on the news side, but if Bezos tries interfering with the news side I will be quitting immediately and letting you know

Scoop: New records obtained by The Washington Post show how US taxpayers have spent $30 million maintaining a Russian oligarch’s yacht

Expenditures include: flights, groceries, toilet brushes, docking fees and more

Khanna now defending Musk/Ramaswamy DOGE commission from GOP aide's criticism

Ramaswamy continues to push for cutting hundreds of billions in unauthorized spending

Here's what that spending consists of, per @jacobbogage.bsky.social

Which way progressives

Ramaswamy: hundreds of billions of dollars can be cut from Medicaid, Social Security and Medicare through “basic program integrity measures.” Seemingly a starkly different position than Trump took in his first term

Heritage leader Kevin Roberts here at Mar-a-Lago today for an event, introduced himself as from Project 2025 and being here to help. (He got a good laugh.)

In new WSJ oped, Musk & Ramaswamy say they believe SCOTUS could open the door to unilateral spending cuts, without Congress, based on what they say is the unconstitutionality of the 1974 budget law

Could be an absolutely massive fight

Objectively kind of hilarious imo that ~75% of the "waste" identified in this post touted by Elon Musk is interest payments on the debt

Do they understand that you can't eliminate interest payments on the debt unless you *do something about the reason those interest payments exist*?

For my money, he is by far the best and most important John Brown scholar in American history

I learned from no one so much as I learned from WEB DuBois in producing the Brown series

Gorgeous prose that touches the soul as few writers alive can even attempt today
