The Washington Post Has Become Right-Wing Even Faster Than I Thought It’s not going to happen. It’s happening: The mainstream media is becoming right-wing. What are wealthy liberals going to do about it?

We are at most a few years away from the mainstream media becoming controlled top to bottom, with a few very exceptions, by ultrarich conservatives and their hirelings. trib.al/DB2iRVW

Yes! Sooo much growth. And the identification of trauma triggers. And knowing our worth is outside of our jobs. So a little anti capitalism too.

The number of times I’ve seen film crews at this park where people take naps and concerts happen… I will say it a million times. But the most dangerous thing in LA is the police (and now ICE).

As a mental health professional, I approve The Bear season 4 finale. And anyone saying otherwise is a sadist.

After early reprieve from immigration enforcement, farming industry reckons with raids The Trump administration's immigration enforcement mostly left farms and meat packing plants alone, until coordinated raids last week. Now, President Trump is signaling continued support for farmers.

As long as immigration sweeps are happening in the communities that farm workers live in, farm workers will continue being detained and deported.

Farm workers deserve REAL protections, so they can continue working without fear.

I’m so sick of hearing people get mad at news outlets owned by private corporations and the uber rich. Stop expecting them to be anything other than what they’ve always been and instead support independent news sources.

Remigration is a far-right European plan to expel minorities and immigrants from Western nations.

This is neo-nazism.

Video

By now, we've all seen the video of Senator Alex Padilla (D-CA) being forcibly removed and handcuffed for asking a question during Kristi Noem's press conference.

But what Noem said just moments before the video was taken is "classic authoritarian red-baiting," points out @davidcorn.bsky.social.

I see tons of reposts of lies from Fox News and the govt. instead of reposting and giving them a platform let’s keep posting what’s happening on the ground.

Trying to argue law, truth, and logic with these folks has never worked. Stop wasting your energy doing it.
