For some reason people fleeing the sinking #Twitter / #X ship for #BlueSky don't seem to be aware of the fact that crypto bros at #BlockchainCapital bought a huge stake in the company just a few weeks ago. Like these are basically the same crypto bros who just helped #ElonMusk buy Twitter. They might even be literally the same people (I strongly suspect they are but I'm too lazy to check). Either way #BlockchainCapital was co-founded by #BrockPierce, who also brought you #Tether, AKA the company that Trump's transition team chairman manages $120 billion for. Pierce is also a friend of the #Netanyahu family.

You don't have to take my word for it. Here's the official press release: bsky.social/about/blog/10-24-2…

Moving to BlueSky is not an escape. Growing a base there is just putting in a bunch of work to create a platform that will be co-opted by crypto bros as soon as X breaks in half.

The real "enemy within" is the right-wing media—Fox News (and the entire News Corp.), Newsmax, One America News Network, the Sinclair network of radio and TV stations and newspapers, iHeart Media (formerly Clear Channel), the Bott Radio Network (Christian radio), Elon Musk’s X, the huge podcasts like Joe Rogan’s, and much more—THEY set the news agenda in this country.

The uneducated and stupid are part of the problem. Just wait until Dept of Education is shuttered and there are no national curriculum standards. We will have no shared understanding.

As she calls for a media reckoning, Parker Molloy speaks truth that will resonate with a lot of us, I suspect:

"For years, major news outlets have twisted themselves into knots trying to appease critics on the right. In the process, they've alienated not just the left but anyone who cares about honest, fearless journalism."

“If your political capital comes from picking on trans kids or gay kids or anything like that, you’re just bankrupt throughout all of this. My version of being a man is like, hey, I like rib-eyes, I like Motörhead, and I’m never going to pick on trans kids and gay kids… It doesn’t make you tough. It doesn’t make you a man to pick on trans or gay kids. It just makes you an asshole.”

— Sen. John Fetterman (D-PA), on CNN.

David Plouffe wrote on X that late-deciding voters are “breaking by double digits” for Kamala Harris, with “the remaining undecideds looking more friendly” to them than Donald Trump.

Politico: “His comments echo those shared by senior campaign officials earlier Friday on a call with reporters.”

This is karma for letting Trump conduct a publicity stunt at one of their outlets in Pennsylvania.
There is no advantage to being connected to Trump.

When the LA Times' owner, Patrick Soon-Shiong, killed its endorsement of Kamala Harris, he also quashed a multi-part series, tentatively called "The Case Against Trump," @TheWrap says. So far, three staffers — editorial writer Karin Klein, Pulitzer Prize-winner Robert Green and editorials editor Mariel Garza have quit over the lack of endorsement, with Klein calling Soon-Shiong a "chickensh**." To date, the LA Times Guild is the only institution from the paper that has commented publicly. Here's more — free registration may be required to read the full article.
