“Journalism deserves better” or how billionaire Bezos has run the Washington Post into the ground. Though the WP was never a progressive newspaper, much less left-leaning, it did try to live up to Liberal standards. So, in a age on anti-Enlightenment populism, it became a threat to all fascists.

The Washington Post has laid off more than 300 journalists, dismantling its sports, local news and international coverage. “Everybody is grieving, and it’s a loss for our readers,” says Nilo Tabrizy, ...

Every African-American that's supporting Trump should know exactly how he actually sees them. Oh, yeah, that includes idiots like Nicki Minaj and Black fascists like so-called "Ye" (Kanye West) whose MAGA anthem "HH" says all you need to know about this punk.

The most blatant celebration yet of "Manifest Destiny", the despicable notion that the US was "destined by divine providence" to expand to the west, the south and beyond, celebrating the 1846-48 war against Mexico - an ominous warning. The Confederacy was defeated once. It can be defeated again!

When confronted with undeniable evidence of their moral and political decrepitude, the ruling 1% class will feign any level of sorrow that's needed in order to get away with murder, rape, pillage or any other kind of destruction. It's the same script from Gates, Clinton, Mandelson to Andrew or Musk.

In Mudanza, #BadBunny turns refusal into an anthem. Refusal to leave. Refusal to disappear. Refusal to accept displacement as fate rather than as violence. Mudanza speaks to many kinds of forced movement - economic expulsion, colonial dispossession, gentrification and even climate displacement.

This is exactly how billionnaires rig election campaigns and then, when they are exposed or caught in the process, deny the claims and call them "bullshit". But the evidence is there for everyone to see.
And you might not be surprised to see Steve Bannon in the new Epstein files making this claim:
“I had Clive Palmer do the $60 million anti china and climate change ads.”
Palmer is now denying this
