If I were a newspaper owning billionaire I'd downsize by eliminating the editorial page. Not to save money but because literally none of them are good or useful. Alas Bret Stephens, Jeff Jacoby, and Megan McArdle will continue to receive paychecks.

All 6 Palestine Action activists in the Elbit Systems break-in have been found not guilty on all charges. This action was one of the main 'reasons' the govt. proscribed PA as a terrorist organisation. Nearly 3000 people have been arrested for showing support. There must be pardons and compensation.

New — I spoke to eight people who were present at the ICE protest on Saturday in Portland, Oregon when federal agents deployed tear gas and rubber bullets into a crowd of families, children, elderly and disabled people, and their pets.

These are their stories:

yet again it seems like the ones who are *most trained* are also *most likely* to draw their weapons & fire on civilians, almost as if the training exists to desensitize them to killing or its consequences & moreover to convince them of the necessity & desirability of pulling the trigger
do not listen to anyone who says they need more training

I may have a stroke.

Someone said protests don’t belong in church and it took every ounce of self-censure within me not to say “Deborah you are literally a Protestant.”

the Epstein files show not only that the rich and powerful are horrible people, but that there's actually an even larger number of people who are fully aware of what's happening but perfectly happy to go along with it

which really ruins the fundamental argument against conspiracy theorists, namely that you couldn't have a vast conspiracy like that without anyone leaking it

I couldn't make out most of the lyrics in Born to Run which makes them seem so aloof and inscrutable,
I saw a critique of Springsteen's new song, it being too earnest and cringe, and if I could just take a second to introduce you to the entire Bruce Springsteen catalogue we could settle this in a heartbeat.

It's also what we recommend to folks whose lives literally depend on the security of their communications.

All of that being said, never forget that ANY communication protocol is only as safe as the device it ends up on, and the people who receive the message.
It's not without reason that Signal remains the gold standard amongst infosec professionals around the world. It's what CULT OF THE DEAD COW uses for all of our own internal secure communications, as well.

We trust it.

In the world of professional cryptographers, the question is a settled matter: as of early 2026, Signal is the best encrypted messaging app for all but the most utterly pathological of edge cases.

The Atlantic—no friend to anti-fascist movements—is reporting that ICE Truppenführer Greg Bovino is being demoted.

No politician or political party did this. It only occurred because of grassroots resistance and direct action.

ICE will keep kidnapping and murdering until we ourselves stop them. 🏴
