the $75 million Jeff Bezos set on fire for that Melania propaganda piece could have funded most independent newsrooms for literally decades
always bears repeating that this is NOT a financial decision. jeff bezos is worth over 250 billion dollars. he can afford to lose many millions and never even notice it. this is, at its core, a political and personal decision by bezos to destroy the post

If white people were raised properly, they wouldn't have to unlearn anti-Black prejudice later in life. Their bigotry towards others is a result of poor parenting and a lack of self-reflection and awareness, also attributed to the way they were raised — prove me wrong.

I usually hesitate to post obituaries but this one, of my literary agent, Georges Borchardt, born in 1928, is so unusual that it deserves to be widely shared.

It’s awfully hard to listen to @senjackyrosen.govpeeps.us voice outrage at ICE and warning us not to listen to “them” but instead watch what “they” do.
I watched her join a handful of other Dem senators and betray a government shutdown far short of its goals.

I want to hear at least ONE Democratic leader talk like their ass is on fire about ICE’s electronic surveillance of people committing no crimes...and the “nice little database” they’re bragging about building on Americans. That’s the emergency.
Anyone??

There is ICE activity in and around Indianapolis and apparently ICE has a month-long let on rooms at the JW Marriott. Has ANYONE seen coverage on local news channels?

What can we do when they start arresting and hauling people away at voting precincts to later find they're completely legal and have to let them go, but guess what? The voting places are closed and they missed the vote? I know that is going to happen in Dem areas. We all need to be prepared for it.
