Who steals from a child? A CEO. He snatched a hat from a kid in front of the whole world.

The millionaire CEO who stole a hat from a child at the US Open is, ultimately, indicative of the whole ruling class.

This is what we’re up against, a small number of people and a system that will gladly and unapologetically steal from children and from all of us.

Costs of concerts & 5 stops/tour ultimately hurts the overall consumption of kpop in the US.

This year in particular, the companies MAINLY HYBE, have packed all their major touring artists into three months. US consumers can’t afford that, even if they live in the cities the groups visit.

SCOOP: ICE Revoking Students’ Immigration Statuses Without Their or the University’s Knowledge β€œNever seen something like this,” say university officials about the secret targeting of Middle Eastern students.

SCOOP: The Trump admin appears to be going into a visa database to quietly change students' immigration status. It's coming entirely by surprise β€” setting students up to be detained without warning.

It's Mahmoud Khalil & Rumeysa Ozturk β€” on a wider scale.

Wired is dropping paywalls for FOIA-based reporting. Others should follow As the administration does its best to hide public records from the public, Wired magazine is stepping up to help stem the secrecy

They're called public records for a reason. Starting today, WIRED will *stop paywalling* articles that are primarily based on public records obtained through the Freedom of Information Act, becoming the first publication to partner with @freedom.press to offer this for our new coverage.

Repeating something many Black journos have said already, but never underestimate how much white journos+editors willingness to play nice w/ varied iterations of β€œanti-wokeism” was b/c they got really uncomfortable from 2012 to 2020 when called to account for racism w/in their outlets/profession.
