Corporations and ultra-rich individuals with numerous business interests cannot be trusted to prioritize the public’s right to know over their own bottom lines.
When billionaire conglomerates take control of media, it’s not a win for free speech. It’s a win for oligarchy.

Kristi Noem is guilty of crimes against humanity and needs to face justice.
📌 She made the final call to defy a court order to halt deportation flights, sending people into the hellscape of CECOT, a place the UN has compared to a torture chamber.

Remember when Trump’s sons announced a made-in-the-USA smartphone and a new wireless service, Trump Mobile?
Three months later, the phone’s ship date keeps getting delayed with no explanation — although the company continues to collect $100 deposits.
The grift never ends.
