After years of complaining about cancel culture, the current administration has taken it to a new and dangerous level by routinely threatening regulatory action against media companies unless they muzzle or fire reporters and commentators it doesn’t like.

Watch JD Vance's audition as Trump's replacement, preparing for when he and the gang of techno-fascist billionaires backing him—*cough* Peter Thiel *cough*—destroy America, carve it up, and then purchase the broken pieces for cents on the dollar so they can rule over tech-enabled dystopian kingdoms.

I can't speak for everyone but this is why I have given up on the Democrats and am entirely unmotivated. Their refusal (other than AOC) to support progressives who have won primaries fair and square. They would rather have Cuomo, who is in the pocket of Trump. www.nytimes.com/2025/08/06/n...

This comes two weeks after the New York Times reported that Cuomo and Trump spoke on the phone about the mayor’s race. Now we’re seeing the results of that collaboration.

I'd just like to point out how weird it is that places with hundreds or even thousands of reporters — the NYT, WaPo, CBS, NBC, AP, etc. — are all getting pummeled on every major story by the dozen computerboys at Wired. To fumble the bag this consistently is, at some point, cowardice and a choice.
NEW: Metadata from the “raw” Epstein prison video shows approximately 2 minutes and 53 seconds were removed from one of two stitched-together clips. The cut starts right at the “missing minute.”
