They're using the confinement box, one of the most horrific methods of CIA torture in the post-9/11 black sites, against migrants now. This is the direct result of the lack of consequences for the architects of the torture program. Either there will be criminal penalties for this or it will expand.

Keeping WBD out of Paramount's hands is good.
Putting it in Netflix's is still unlawful consolidation though. This is the #1 streamer merging with #3.
State enforcers should speak up.

Netflix has won the bidding war to purchase Warner Bros. Discovery.
The sale is not yet finalized, as the U.S. Department of Justice could also interfere due to anti-trust concerns.

It also found only 7 of more than 400 stopped taking HRT... and of those that did, 4 still identified as gender-diverse.

When news broke that a suspect had been identified in the Charlie Kirk case, an X user asked Grok to supply an image of the suspect.
Grok replied with an AI-generated photo of a young Black man.

Israel just killed him.

This is right on. For people like Allen & VandeHei, being "opinionated" just means expressing progressive opinions, the idea that things should change. Opinions that reinforce status quo hierarchies -- ie, conservative opinions -- don't count as opinion at all. They're just "the way it is."

I don’t think anyone is prepared for what they just did w/ ICE.
This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined.
It is setting up to make what’s happening now look like child’s play. And people are disappearing.
