Opinion | Jamal Khashoggi: What the Arab world needs most is free expression The Arab world needs a modern version of the old transnational media so citizens can be informed about global events.

I will never forget having to edit Jamal’s final, posthumous piece for the Washington Post, after he was murdered.

He was calling for free expression in the Arab world. You can read it here :

Plea from an intensivist:

Don't use ACEi/ARB for management of HTN in patients who are tenuous or have limited prognosis (eg advanced malignancy). There are much safer anti-HTN tx's (amlodipine, nifedipine XR).

Educate patients that if they're too sick to eat they should to hold ACEi/ARB #EMIMCC

KARL: The president claims that Thanksgiving costs are down 25%. Does he know that's not true?

HASSETT: Well if you look at Walmart--

KARL: Wait a minute. I've gotta stop you. The Walmart package this year contains much less than the one last year. That's why the price is less.

Trump's entire gambit is to bully and harass and intimidate people into silence. But the elections last Tuesday, the huge No Kings turnout, and the packed rooms I saw in New Hampshire this week are proof that his plan is not working.

NEW: In his first interview since his arrest for protesting outside the Chicago-area ICE facility, @revdrmichaelwoolf.bsky.social tells me he has "bruises all over my body."

According to Fox News, if you are a racist Young Republican you are still a "kid" when you are 34, but if you are an Epstein victim, you are an adult when you're 15.

Fact is, Epstein is the *only* issue impervious to Trump/GOP messaging tactics.

That's why Trump & MAGA keep freaking outβ€”they literally don't know what to do when lying, misdirection, and demagoguery don't work. So they flail around, making it worse.

Dropping it would be political malpractice.

WATCH β€” @milestaylor.bsky.social : β€œThe average πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ family saved $1,600 a year from tax cuts, but spent $4,000 a year on Trump’s price increases β€” now he's realizing what conservative economists have known for centuries: Tariffs are taxes. And he's having to walk it back.”

Nuzzi's fawning coverage of the sociopathic conspiracy crank she was having an affair with aided his rise to political power, which he is using to perpetrate the worst intentional public health catastrophe of our unnecessarily shortened lifetimes, and THAT is the STORY.

I am well aware that they are and will continue to do massive damage to this country

but does it feel like they’re on a glide path to successful authoritarian consolidation anymore? I submit that it does not
