It has always been so obvious that the backlash to MeToo isn’t about whether the abuse is happening but whether people are allowed to want it to stop

Almost two weeks ago, I found out I was one of 40 people getting laid off from NBC News.
Those who know me know I’ve wanted to go independent for a long time. Later this month, I’m launching @spitfirenews.com. We need journalism that is louder than ever.

They want to starve off the native people in Alaska. A lot of native people in Alaska rely on animals like Caribou, moose, seal and whales for food. Destroying their habitat means starvation for native Americans.

The highest profile of all Trump's revenge prosecutions is that against former FBI Director James Comey. But the sheer incompetence and stupidity of the prosecution is now attracting a world audience. It seems to say: Trump and his team are indeed evil. But they're also exceptionally stupid.

Meanwhile literally everything is more expensive.
