It is a dark day for freedom of the press. Paramount’s decision to settle with Trump will only embolden him to continue his attack on the media.
Trump is undermining our democracy and moving us towards authoritarianism, and the billionaires are helping him do it.

Many liberals and progressives understand the Supreme Court to be a bastion of rights and a bulwark against the excesses of an oppressive majority.
But, for most of its history outside the Warren Court, the Supreme Court has been a bastion of oligarchy and white supremacy. This is its normal.

🚨By a 6–3 vote, the Supreme Court UPHOLDS Tennessee's ban on gender-affirming care for minors, concluding that it does NOT discriminate on the basis of sex, is not subject to heightened scrutiny, and survives rational basis review. All three liberals dissent. www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/24p...

Other than that, I have been rewatching the Mission Impossible films priming myself for what critics say will be a disappointment (who cares).
Read Hadji Murat for the first time this weekend. Might be Tolstoy’s best work.

Have really enjoyed Cameron Campbell’s new jazz record. If you like madlib, Bill Evans, or Keith Jarrett. Give it a shot. He’s a touring member Geordie Greeps American “New Sound” band. The best live show in America right now.

Fav movie so far is Black Bag.
The Accountant 2 is nowhere near as fun - or even as fun to laugh at - as the first one, which is mediocre at best. It was the toughest watch I’ve had at the theaters so far this year- which is about the average tough for the YTD.
