Authoritarians love corruption and fear accountability. The arrest of long-time human rights defender Ruth López is another chilling attack on democracy by Bukele’s regime. Free Ruth NOW.

Raskin: This is a gangster state. This is not basically a legitimate government that is sometimes doing corrupt things. This is an essentially corrupt enterprise. It's like watching The Sopranos. Every day, they get up and they try to figure out how to plunder and pillage the people

If guilty people don't have Due Process rights, then innocent people don't have Due Process rights, because we don't know if they're innocent or guilty until we have a trial or hearing.

What’s happening in Los Angeles's ports suggests that financial markets have yet to fully price in how much Trump’s tariff war is hurting the economy, @juliettekayyem writes. "The stock market goes up and down. Maritime indicators keep on sinking":

This paints Hyndman as this welcoming little town that is worried for its future. It's all BS.
This area is a hot bed for the KKK, Aryan Nation, and other hate groups. This happened in 2013. This part of the state is known for being dangerous for minorities.

I'm not saying journalists should never interview admitted propagandists. There are journalistic reasons to do so. But if we do, we must be prepared to -- in fact it is our duty to -- challenge vociferously all unsubstantiated claims. Otherwise, we ourselves become propagandists.

It always boggles my mind that I, a journalist, am expressly forbidden from trading stocks, but members of Congress, with vastly greater knowledge of market-moving news, are allowed to profit by front-running markets, and so may profit by in essence stealing from the public they represent.

BREAKING: Trump has paused tariffs for 90 days. Who could have seen this coming two days ago on Bluesky?
The best case scenario is that this is a stock shorting scheme, and in a week, there will be masterful (non-existent) "dealmaking" that removes the tariffs after the billionaires buy the dip causing a massive transfer of wealth.
That's the *best* case scenario.
