the $75 million Jeff Bezos set on fire for that Melania propaganda piece could have funded most independent newsrooms for literally decades
always bears repeating that this is NOT a financial decision. jeff bezos is worth over 250 billion dollars. he can afford to lose many millions and never even notice it. this is, at its core, a political and personal decision by bezos to destroy the post
WASHINGTON (AP) — Washington Post says one-third of its staff across all departments, not just the newsroom, is being laid off.

So this guy gets it. Your elected Dems don't. You centrist incrementalists don't. You do not know what horrors are happening right now in your name with your tax money in these camps. You do not know what horrors are happening to innocent people kidnapped and shipped abroad with your tax money.
Highlighting the speaker who stood in front of the Surprise mayor and told him to consider what the Mayor of Ohrdruf must’ve thought before he died by suicide: “He might have thought ‘how is this my fault I had no jurisdiction over this’ maybe he said ‘this site was not subject to local zoning.’”

A lot of people cannot just start a paid newsletter or become freelancers to sustain their careers. The sports, metro, and international desks did work that requires *team* resources, like legal checks, documents, access to archives, and long-term beat experience.

This is almost a parody of corporate liberal thinking
Like there was an orphan-crushing machine being distributed to all 50 states by the Republicans, and the Democrat response is a bill limiting the number of orphans that can be crushed

Democrats want commonsense reform for ICE:
End the roving patrols and racial profiling.
Take accountability and abide by the same rules as local police.
Masks need to come off, body cameras need to stay on—no secret police in the United States of America.

NO, YOU STUPID FUCKING ASSHOLE, THAT IS NOT WHAT WE WANT. ABOLISH ICE. STOP FUNDING THEM. STOP PLAYING ALONG. THE ENTIRE ORGANIZATION IS ROTTEN, AND YOU HAVE TO STOP BEING COMPLICIT.
Was that clear enough?

Finding out that some people's artistic output was not illumination but confession--finding that out as a person is hard enough. As a critic? Whew. Half the reason I wrote Burn It Down is so we can try to unpack how the systems cover for not just normal stress but a host of toxic & horrific patterns

Having actually seen this movie, I can tell you it portrays a loveless marriage of convenience between two people whose only aptitude, in any context, is for keeping up appearances.
Of all the things in the history of the world that definitely did not happen - this is the pinnacle.
