After the 2024 election, a lot of elected Dems talked about the need to build alternative independent media platforms. My response was that they already exist, but elected Dems don’t support them by going on as guests - only doing legacy media. 2025 has been significantly better.

Two days ago, signing a petition to release the Epstein files was a treasonous act. Only 4 House Republicans were willing to do it. They were pressured, threatened and harassed by Trump to remove their name.
Tomorrow, they are all going to vote for it.
Spineless cowards.

At the start of Trump's second term, Voice of America was broadcasting to the world in 49 languages. Now it's down to 4, with a skeleton staff, and barely producing any content at all. While court battles over VOA's fate continue, Trump's shut-it-down effort has succeeded. 🧵

The story of how Trump sells access to the White House - to benefit himself and his family financially and to benefit his political operation - is shocking and sordid.
No President has ever monetized access like Trump has.

Hiding declassified files and presidential records is yet another way for the administration to dodge accountability. The authoritarian always seeks to limit your access to information.
👀 Spotted by @diking.bsky.social on the National Archives website:
“Effective July 7, the National Archives at College Park, MD, will become a restricted-access federal facility with access only for visitors with a legitimate business need. It will no longer be open to the public”
