CBS Is About to Hand Over Its Newsroom to an Anti-Woke Crusader. You Should Be Worried. She’s made a career railing against β€œwokeness.” Now she’s in charge of a venerated newsroom.

now that the news is official: some thoughts on Bari Weiss taking over at CBS News, and what it means that the Free Pressβ€”a publication that never apologizes or corrects itself when its "reporting" is ripped to shredsβ€”is touted as a needed dose of "trust and integrity" slate.com/technology/2...

β€œTerrible things are happening outside. Poor helpless people are being dragged out of their homes. Families are torn apart. Men, women, and children are separated. Children come home from school to find that their parents have disappeared.”

Randomly came out to a lesbian couple and their parents. Was so chill and perhaps one of the happiest moments I’ve experienced. Just like nothing … but everything. 🩷

Treasury Department proposes Trump coin to mark 250th anniversary of U.S. According to draft images confirmed by the U.S. Treasurer, the coin could feature images of Trump, but the law states that only deceased people can appear on U.S. currency.

When Trump’s Reich falls, these people must be held accountable. Be it 30 days from now or 30 years:

When Trump falls, as all dictators fall, all those who aligned themselves with him will bear responsibility. Their legacy as well as their children’s and grandchildren’s names will be besmirched. History looks poorly on dictators.

Thanks @mcbride.house.gov. I hope when they come for me, you at least shed one tear. I had such hope for you. I know it’s hard. But you will be judged by your stance.

Under Trump, Vance, Speaker of the House Johnson, Senate Majority Leader Thune, and Chief Justice Roberts, the United States has become a heavily-armed, failed state descending into totalitarianism. We beg our allies to help us.

Washington Post’s commitment to personal liberties does not extend to employing people who criticize gun violence or accurately quote, without comment, Charlie Kirk’s words

so ICE murdered a father in cold blood from a routine traffic stop, we're murdering random Venezuelans in foreign waters, we're shackling S. Koreans for building the factories we need to keep the southern economy alive, and we have a majority party trying to tie passport status to political views

On Wednesday, Brian Kilmeade went on national television and called for homeless people to be killed by lethal injection. "Just kill 'em," he said.

There hasn't been one word about it in The New York Times or The Washington Post or USA Today.

World going to shit but a film by Alice Maio Mackay always puts warmth in my heart and hope in my soul. Carnage for Christmas tonight. I can watch her films whenever I feel low and they just help. I will make it. 🩷

After Charlie Kirk's death, teachers and professors nationwide fired or disciplined over social media posts At least a dozen faculty and staff have faced fallout over insensitive comments online.

I am having a hard time reconciling "Charlie Kirk was a fierce advocate of open dialogue and free expression" with "we must identify and persecute everyone who is insufficiently mournful"

Black students and colleges across US targeted with racist threats day after Charlie Kirk killing β€” Guardian US FBI said threats were β€˜hoax calls’, although universities took measures to prevent incidents on campuses

Threaten a white person, full force of the dictator’s system comes down on you. Threaten a person of color, no biggie, back to regular programming.

Charlie Kirk in his own words: β€˜prowling Blacks’ and β€˜the great replacement strategy’ The far-right commentator didn’t pull his punches when discussing his bigoted views on current events

Abhor the violence and murder but do not sanctify this person or claim he was moderate and good. This is not behavior to model, follow or praise.

Some news organizations have dared report the views that made Kirk famous. The hagiographers can’t even mention those views out loud, because they make clear he greatly contributed to the politics of rage, conspiracy, and violence that may have ultimately ended his life.
