The truth about the Washington Post: Bezos made decisions to curry favor with Trump that made a lot of Washington Post readers distrust the newspaper. It then lost a lot of subscriptions, which lost money. And now he's doing layoffs. He should sell the paper to someone who will

An absolute disgrace — and it will produce an even larger disconnect between audience retention and the Washington Post brand. They gutted this outlet and the only people who will emerge wealthier are the ones who gutted it.

Something grotesque about the Post's multi-billionaire owner signing off on a $75 million turkey ('Melania') while simultaneously gutting one of American journalism's finest institutions.

Jeff Bezos's wanton destruction of one of America's most fearless journalistic institutions so that he can suck up to Trump is too expensive a midlife crisis to impose on America. A sad day for independent media.

Neguse: Where is this company headquartered? Noem: I don’t know. Neguse: I don’t know either. We can’t find it. We did find an address that’s registered to a political operative. This company that received 143 million dollars was incorporated 8 days before this contract went

Day off today. Switched on TV to catch up on Iran latest just in time to hear some muppet declare: ‘This is not a game of whack-a-mole, it’s a game of whack-a-mullah’. *Switches off TV*

The disgraced & militantly incompetent Kristi Noem is now in charge of "Shield of the Americas", whatever Marvel book fantasy that's supposed to mean. You couldn't make this shit up.

Watching Rogan learn in real time what everyone from center-right to the progressive left knew back in 2015 is darkly amusing and deeply frustating Like, you guys didn't grasp that Trump was incoherent opportunist willing to say anything to win until now? Seriously?
