Yeah, it does seem kinda bad for a newspaper owner to get into business with a guy who vivisected one of his opinion columnists.
Jeff Bezos once mourned Jamal Khashoggi in public—now the Amazon billionaire is making billion-dollar deals with his executioner, which reveals more about his values than any vigil ever could.

As usual, I am confused by the Department of Education’s new policy. Says it will immediately spend $60 million additional on charter schools. But I am unaware of Congress ever having dumped money in a piggy bank that allows Ed to spend at will.
Education Department Adds $60 Million in Grants for Charter Schools
The department will free up the funding after it gained more spending leeway in a March budget bill.

The general public does not fully grasp everything that the federal government does, and many are experiencing a very harsh awakening. It’s just sad, and it really doesn’t have to be this way.
