Fraud in the Midwest doesn’t tend to become national news regardless of the race of the perpetrators. It seems silly to assume that the story was suppressed because it involved Somalis.
Forgot the link there, it's below.
I actually agree w conservatives who think this insane scandal didn't become a huge national story in 2022 because of newsroom choices, desire not to inflame racial tensions, etc. But the Biden-era DOJ was all over it.

I think it’s important people pick up on the recurring theme that the *existence* of anything which isn’t about them is interpreted as a personal attack on them. Kwanzaa can’t be about Black people it must be about hating white people.
These "War On Christmas" types literally find problems instead of enjoying time with their loved ones.

The inevitable result of fetishizing “debate” but having no idea how to handle actual conflict…
Bari Weiss just sent this Christmas Eve email to the CBS News staff about "building trust," which includes her tripling down on spiking the CECOT piece "to make sure it's comprehensive and fair."
One CBS staffer tells me: "She really has no idea how insulting she comes across."

This is what Bari Weiss et al think "censorship" actually is; when subordinates criticize their superiors. That has been the bedrock of the entire "cancel culture" discourse in elite media; rage at the idea that students, women, journalists, interns, etc might be able to speak against the boss.
The CBS reporter who led the story calls pulling it a "political" decision.
"The decision was made after Bari Weiss, the new editor in chief of CBS News, requested numerous changes to the segment."

"Get the principals on camera" is such a telling phrase here, because it tells us that for Weiss there's no world in which the victims of these horrific actions can actually be seen as the subjects of the story: They're background noise, and the people who matter are the ones sending them.
Weiss concluded: “We need to be able to make every effort to get the principals on the record and on camera. To me, our viewers come first, not a listing schedule or anything else. And that is my North Star, and I hope it's the North Star of every person in this newsroom.”

I guess I’m naive, but it’s surprising and disturbing that people are embracing such a flawed piece. The author has no grasp of how to interpret data and relies on a bunch of vague, uncorroborated anecdotes from guys who aren‘t struggling much at all. No empirical evidence presented.

It’s also why none of these pop media hit pieces, and I mean none of them, include anything resembling serious empirical evidence of white men being oppressed or underrepresented in *any* position/job/institution with status. It’s straight up grievance propaganda.
This is consistent with the survey and other evidence I saw from a talk about a great new project on the rise and fall of DEI by @lachlanmcnamee.bsky.social Salma Mousa and @kylepeyton.bsky.social
Again, anti-wokeness is a backlash to integration of white collar work. Only white men are allowed to have prestigious jobs otherwise it's unfair bsky.app/profile/mike...

Today, after months of requests, I toured the Broadview ICE Processing Facility. I want to share what I saw.
The facility has no food vendor, no medical care, and detainees have to use toilets in the middle of shared cells. These are in no way suitable conditions to be holding anyone — period.

This is so painfully accurate and so evil.
Yep, one of the biggest drivers of the elite panic around “wokeness” was the increasing prominence of Black people and particularly Black women in their fields and we’re seeing that coalition rewarded with the targeting of Black workers.
Since February, according to my latest analysis, almost 600,000 Black women have been economically sidelined. The November 20, 2025, Jobs Report makes clear this isn’t a blip. It’s a structural crisis. That is not a recovery. It is a redistribution of opportunity.

Again, its an elite panic being used to justify resegregating public life under the premise that Black people with their scholarship and presence perverted their precious institutions.
No, we didn't "lose our mission" & we didn't focus too much on identity diversity at the expense of viewpoint diversity, & no one knows the right amount of that (bsky.app/profile/mcop...) & no amount of granting the premises warrants the lawless authoritarian assault on American universities.
