This is called "freedom" and it's pissing off the new Commissars who believe that artists must perform at the State's command
Issa Rae has canceled her sold out performance at the Kennedy Center. Pulitzer Prize winner Rhiannon Giddens, Peter Wolf, Low Cut Connie, and the Gay Men’s Chorus of Washington, D.C., have also canceled. Lin-Manuel Miranda has canceled the entire Kennedy Center run of Hamilton.

it’s crazy how obvious it is that donald trump has been actively part of the epstein coverup for half a decade now and he’s just still the president
Julie K. Brown is a reporter for the Miami Herald who did groundbreaking work on Epstein beginning in 2018, including groundbreaking work on the disgusting coverup by Alex Acosta.

Her travel itinerary was released with some of the Epstein files. It appears the DOJ was monitoring her in 2019.

Donald Trump is a convicted criminal.

He is objectively pro-crime.

The Trump administration is a criminal organization.

He is turning the U.S. into a mafia state.
If this is true, it is the most impeachable offense ever.

In his first year back in office, President Trump's Middle East policy has been characterized by "massive corruption" and self-dealing, says @rhodesben.bsky.social. Aaron David Miller says this approach by Trump is "undermining and skewing our national interest." #Velshi
'Massive corruption' and 'skewing our national interest:' Understanding Trump's Middle East approach
Since returning to office, President Trump has taken on a major role in the Middle East, from brokering a ceasefire between Israel and Hamas in Gaza to deepening ties with Saudi Arabia. Former Deputy National Security Advisor Ben Rhodes calls out Trump's "massive corruption" in cozying up to "these rich, totalitarian or autocratic leaders in the Gulf." Former State Department Senior Advisor for Arab-Israeli Relations Aaron David Miller says that while the ceasefire is a major achievement, "building a bridge to a broader Israeli-Palestinian peace is going to be a very hard lift."

“… rule-breaking is only powerful when the rule-breaker is already powerful. A CEO in a hoodie, for example, reads as too brilliant to care. An entry-level employee in a hoodie, on the other hand, signals a lack of seriousness.”
It Might Be Time to Ditch Your Emotional Support Hoodie
The hoodie is a work-from-home security blanket. But in the office, it’s a trap.

Amazing to now be alive in a world where the vice president of the U.S. is publicly saying there's a chance France and the UK would nuke the U.S. that the U.S. must take seriously and that it should act accordingly and intervene in their affairs

"The woke French left will get nuclear weapons and launch a first strike on the US" is a thought lodged in the vice president's brain.

The CBS investigation portrays a modern concentration camp, similar to the Soviet GULAG (like CECOT, an acronym): sadistic guards, 24 hour lighting, isolation cells.
Americans once opposed this inhumane system.
The Trump administration sent innocent people there to suffer.
