Putin not Musk is probably the richest man on earth but that only makes the point stronger — control of media by oligarchs leads to folly, fascism, and war
The richest man on earth owns X.
The second richest man on earth is about to be a major owner of TikTok.
The third richest man owns Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp.
The fourth richest man owns The Washington Post.
See the problem here?

Wondering if any Member of Congress will demand details of how ATF fucked up analysis of those bullet engravings so badly--whether someone was pressured to target trans people--and how it was leaked (Crowder says he was subpoenaed).
The leak put every trans person at risk.

When the full extent of Trump’s criminality and that of his family is known I hope the USA has the guts to seize ALL of their assets. They are raking in billions in what Don Jr. describes as a ‘parallel MAGA economy’. You’ll not get out from under these oligarchs unless u fight.

Here we go. Trump just made it unmistakably clear that it will now be absolutely open season on whoever they decide to label "the left," and that this will be pursued with the full force of the government. This could get very, very bad.

This was clear already.
What's newsworthy about the video, IMO, is how at first Trump expressed real grief and then adopted the stance and some of the very same language that Katie Miller rushed to right away.
This is a Stephen Miller move.

Several years ago, I wrote a tribute and thank-you to the passengers of Flight 93, whose courageous action likely saved the lives of many Washingtonians on 9/11–including perhaps my own. In the years since, my gratitude has only grown. Please give this a read.

There are violent extremists on the left but they are not in charge of the party. You can find them on social media, not in the halls of power.
The violent extremists on the right are in congress, on courts, and sitting in the Oval Office.

The first responders who ran into the wreckage on 9/11 shouldn’t have to wait for the medical care they need. Trump and Robert Kennedy Jr. must reverse all of their cuts to the World Trade Center Health Program.
Democrats demand answers from Kennedy over delayed actions of 9/11 health program
The program has been plagued by funding shortages and staffing cuts, leading to sometimes monthslong wait times for survivors seeking appointments.
